Notes to the condensed interim financial statements

1. General information

Aegon Ltd. is an exempted company with liability limited by shares organized under the laws of Bermuda and registered with the Bermuda Registrar of Companies under number 202302830 and recorded in the Commercial Register of The Hague registered under number 27076669 and with its registered address at Canon’s Court, 22 Victoria Street, Hamilton HM 12, Bermuda.

Aegon Ltd. has its headquarters in the Netherlands at Aegonplein 50, 2591 TV, The Hague. As Aegon Ltd. currently qualifies as Non-Resident Company under Dutch law, certain Dutch law provisions remain applicable to it, including certain provisions of title 9 Book 2 of the Dutch Civil Code regarding the preparation and publication of its annual accounts.

Aegon Ltd. serves as the holding company for the Aegon Group and has listings of its common shares on Euronext Amsterdam and on NYSE.

Aegon Ltd. (or “the Company”) and its subsidiaries (“Aegon” or “the Group”) have life insurance and pensions operations and are also active in savings and asset management operations, accident and health insurance and general insurance. Fully owned businesses by Aegon include the United States, the United Kingdom and asset management, and Aegon also operates partnerships in Spain & Portugal, China, and Brazil, and a strategic partnership in the Netherlands. The Group employs around 15,700 people worldwide (2023: around 15,700).

Aegon Funding Company LLC

Aegon Funding Company LLC (AFC) is an indirect wholly owned subsidiary of Aegon that has been established as a financing vehicle to raise funds for the US subsidiaries of Aegon. AFC has been fully consolidated in the financial statements of Aegon under IFRS. If AFC issues debt securities, Aegon will fully and unconditionally guarantee the due and punctual payment of the principal, any premium and any interest on those debt securities when and as these payments become due and payable, whether at maturity, upon redemption or declaration of acceleration, or otherwise.

The guarantees of senior debt securities will constitute an unsecured, unsubordinated obligation of Aegon and will rank equally with all other unsecured and unsubordinated obligations of Aegon. The guarantees of subordinated debt securities will constitute an unsecured obligation of Aegon and will be subordinated in right of payment to all senior indebtedness of Aegon.

2. Material accounting policy information and estimates

2.1 Basis of presentation

The condensed consolidated interim financial statements as at, and for the six-month period ended, June 30, 2024 (‘first half year 2024’ or ‘1H 2024’), have been prepared in accordance with IAS 34 ‘Interim Financial Reporting’, as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (hereafter ‘IFRS’). They do not include all of the information required for a full set of financial statements prepared in accordance with IFRS and should therefore be read together with the 2023 consolidated financial statements of Aegon Ltd. as included in Aegon’s Annual Report on Form 20-F for 2023 (or “Form 20-F”), which is available on its website (www.aegon.com).

The condensed consolidated interim financial statements are presented in euro (EUR) and all values are rounded to the nearest million unless otherwise stated. The consequence is that the rounded amounts may not add up to the rounded total in all cases.

The published figures in these condensed consolidated interim financial statements are unaudited.

Unaudited Aegon Ltd. Form 6-K for the six months ended June 30, 2024 9

Certain amounts in prior period may have been reclassified to conform to the current period presentation. These reclassifications had no effect on net income, shareholders’ equity or earnings per share.

Other than for SEC reporting, Aegon prepared its Annual Accounts under International Financial Reporting Standards as adopted by the European Union, including the decisions Aegon made with regard to the options available under International Financial Reporting Standards as adopted by the EU (EU-IFRS). EU-IFRS differs from IFRS in respect of certain paragraphs in IAS 39 “Financial Instruments: Recognition and Measurement” regarding hedge accounting for portfolio hedges of interest rate risk. EU-IFRS provides the option to apply fair value hedge accounting for portfolio hedges of interest rate risk (fair value macro hedges) in accordance with the EU “carve out” version of IAS 39. Under IFRS, hedge accounting for fair value macro hedges cannot be applied to mortgage loans and ineffectiveness arises whenever the revised estimate of the amount of cash flows in scheduled time buckets is either more or less than the original designated amount of that bucket.

Due to the completion of the sale of Aegon the Netherlands as per July 4, 2023, the EU “carve out” is no longer applied by Aegon as of that date. Therefore, no differences between EU-IFRS and IFRS remain as applied by Aegon.

2.2 New accounting policies

The accounting policies and methods of computation applied in the condensed consolidated interim financial statements are the same as those applied in the 2023 consolidated financial statements, except for the following IFRS standards and amendments that became effective for Aegon from January 1, 2024:

¨ Amendments to IAS 7 Statement of Cash Flows and IFRS 7 Financial Instruments: Disclosures: Supplier Finance<br>Arrangements (Issued on 25 May 2023)

2.3 Judgements and critical accounting estimates

In preparing these consolidated financial statements, Aegon has made judgements, estimates and assumptions that affect the application of the Group’s accounting policies and the reported amount of assets, liabilities, income, and expenses. Actual outcomes may differ from these estimates.

Included among the material (or potentially material) reported amounts and disclosures that require extensive use of estimates are the fair value of certain investments and derivatives (please refer to note 10), the measurement of (re)insurance contracts and investment contracts with discretionary participating features (please refer to note 12), and the measurement of the expected credit loss (or “ECL”) allowance (please refer to note 15).

Estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Revisions to estimates are recognized prospectively.

2.4 Other

2.4.1 Taxes

Taxes on income for the six-month period ended June 30, 2024, are calculated using the tax rate that is estimated to be applicable to earnings for the full year.

2.4.2 Exchange rates

Assets and liabilities of foreign operations are translated to the presentation currency at the closing rates on the reporting date. Income, expenses, and capital transactions (such as dividends) are translated at average exchange rates or at the prevailing rates on the transaction date, if more appropriate. The following exchange rates (most relevant rates to Aegon) are applied for the condensed consolidated interim financial statements:

Closing exchange rates USD GBP
June 30, 2024 1 EUR 1.0718 0.8478
December 31,<br>2023 1 EUR 1.1047 0.8665
Weighted average exchange rates USD GBP
--- --- --- --- ---
Six months ended June 30, 2024 1 EUR 1.0811 0.8547
Six months ended<br>June 30, 2023 1 EUR 1.0806 0.8763

2.4.3 Share-based payments

The AGM in 2024 adopted the Director’s Remuneration Policy which apply to the Non-Executive and Executive Director(s). Based on this policy, share-based payment is granted to the Executive Director as part of the Long term Incentive Plan (LTI). Non-Executive Directors’ (NED) Board fee consist of cash and Aegon shares. Both the LTI and NED share remuneration are equity settled share-based payment transactions. Expenses are recognized over the service period as personnel expense in the condensed consolidated income statement, with corresponding increase to Equity.

Long Term Incentive Plan shares

The performance is measured over a three-year performance period. The shares granted in the LTI have 2 conditions, relative Total Shareholders’ Return (TSR) compared to a peer group of 16 companies with 50% weight and Return on Regulatory Capital with 50% weight.

The LTI shares vest three years after the grant date. The number of shares that will eventually vest is dependent on the weighted average outcome of achieving the performance conditions provided that the Executive Director is still employed with the company.

Non-Executive Directors’ shares

The annual Board fee of NEDs will be paid around 75% in cash and around 25% in fixed Aegon shares (NED shares). The share compensation does not depend on any performance. These shares vest after completion of the calendar year. Shares are not forfeited when the Board membership of a Non-Executive Director is discontinued before vesting.

3. Segment information

3.1 Performance measure

Aegon uses the non-IFRS performance measure operating result. Similar as under the previous accounting policies, operating result reflects Aegon’s profit before tax from underlying business operations and mainly excludes components that relate to accounting mismatches that are dependent on market volatility, updates to best estimate actuarial and economic assumptions and model updates or events that are considered outside the normal course of business.

3.2 Segment results

Aegon’s segment information is prepared by consolidating on a proportionate basis Aegon’s joint ventures and associated companies except for its 29.97% stake in a.s.r.. The result of associate a.s.r. is included in Other income / (charges).

The following table presents Aegon’s segment results.

12.3 Critical judgements and estimates

Compared to the insurance contract related critical judgements and estimates (valuation methods, actuarial assumptions) applied in Aegon’s 2023 Integrated Annual Report, in the first half of 2024, material changes were processed related to zero-coupon rates, illiquidity premium rates and changes in methods and inputs used to measure fulfilment cash flows (mainly related to assumption changes of Aegon US).

12.3.1 Risk-free yield curve

Aegon has identified various rates available in the EUR, GBP and USD markets that can be used as a basis for the risk-free yield curve, including EURIBOR swap rates for EUR, reformed Sterling Overnight Index Average (SONIA) for GBP, and Secured Overnight Funding Rates (SOFR) and US Treasury rates for USD. EURIBOR rates are adjusted for credit risk by subtracting a credit risk allowance. No adjustment is made to overnight swap rates and US Treasury rates, as the credit risk of these instruments is deemed negligible.

A full risk-free yield curve is derived by first interpolating between tenors for which market data is available, and then extrapolating the yield curve beyond market observable maturities. Discount rates converge linearly in 10 years to an ultimate forward rate. A uniform last liquid point for EUR and USD is set at 30 years, GBP is set at 50 years. The ultimate forward rates reflect a long-term view on nominal interest rates and is set by management per currency, considering expected real interest rates and long-term inflation together with the current market environment. The ultimate forward rates have been reviewed as part of the annual Group economic assumptions update and revised to 3.40% for the USD, 3.30% for the GBP and EUR in 2024. (December 31, 2023: 3.50%,3.65% and 3.45% for the USD, EUR, and GBP respectively.)

Aegon reviews the risk-free last liquid point and ultimate forward rates quarterly which, although expected to be infrequent, may lead to assumption updates if there are significant changes in market conditions.

12.3.2 Changes in methods and inputs used to measure fulfilment cash flows.

Actuarial assumptions are reviewed periodically in the second quarter for the United States and in the fourth quarter for Europe and Asia, based on historical experience, observable market data, including market transactions such as acquisitions and reinsurance transactions, anticipated trends and legislative changes. Similarly, the models and systems used for determining our liabilities and reinsurance assets are reviewed periodically, and if deemed necessary, updated based on emerging best practice and available technology.

During the first half of 2024, Aegon implemented actuarial assumption and model updates which are mainly related to Aegon’s business in the Americas. Assumption updates (non-financial assumptions) are absorbed in the CSM if there are sufficient balances. The change in CSM will impact the amount amortized in the current period and all prospective periods.

The total impact of non-financial assumption changes to the fulfilment value as at June 30, 2024 is an increase of EUR 648 million. This impact was partly absorbed in the CSM (EUR 124 million) and partly impacted the pre-tax result for an amount of EUR (364) million related to onerous contracts. The remaining impact of EUR (160) million is recorded in OCI.

The negative CSM impacts from reinsurance rate increases together with recaptures in Universal Life as well as updates to the claims utilization and cost of care assumptions in Long-Term Care, were only partly offset by lower claims incidence rates and additional anticipated premium rate increase updates in Long Term Care and from favorable assumption updates for lapses in individual health.

The pre-tax result impact is attributable to mortality assumption updates affecting the Traditional Life and Universal Life portfolios.

Unaudited Aegon Ltd. Form 6-K for the six months ended June 30, 2024 45

The OCI impact relates to the revaluation to current interest rates of the changes in non-financial assumptions and experience adjustments.

Aegon did not make any significant changes to the contract boundaries in the current reporting period, nor did it update the approaches used to determine the discount rate or estimate the risk adjustment for non-financial risk.

12.4 Risk mitigation

Aegon has chosen to apply the risk mitigation option and recognize changes in fulfilment value of products with direct participating features in the P&L and OCI, instead of adjusting the CSM. The adjustment to the CSM that would otherwise have been made in 1H 2024 is EUR 1,280 million (1H 2023: EUR 772 million).

14. Subordinated borrowings and borrowings

Subordinated borrowings decreased by EUR 649 million to EUR 1,595 million mainly due to the redemption of EUR 700 million of fixed-to-floating subordinated notes, which was called on April 25, 2024.

The table below shows the split of total borrowings into capital funding and operational funding:

EUR millions June 30, 2024 December 31, 2023
Capital funding 1,487 763
Operational<br>funding 1,431 1,593
Totalborrowings **** 2,918 **** 2,356

Capital funding increased by EUR 724 million mainly due to the issuance of EUR 700 million (USD 760 million) of senior unsecured notes with a fixed coupon of 5.5% and a tenor of three years. Net proceeds from this issuance were used for general corporate purposes, including the redemption of the EUR 700 million of fixed-to-floating subordinated notes. The notes were issued by Aegon Funding Company LLC (AFC) and was guaranteed on a senior unsecured basis by Aegon Ltd. The maturity date is on April 16, 2027.

During the first six-month period of 2024, the operational funding decreased by EUR 162 million mainly due to the paydown of Federal Home Loan Bank (FHLB) borrowings. This borrowing program is part of Aegon’s asset – liability management strategy.

15. Financial risks

There have been no material changes in financial risks as reported in Aegon’s 2023 Integrated Annual Report, except for the economic variable assumptions and ECL information.

The weightings assigned to each economic scenario were as follows:

On December 31,<br>2023 40 30 30

Other forward-looking considerations not otherwise incorporated within the above scenarios, such as the impact of any regulatory, legislative or political changes, have also been considered, but are not deemed to have a material impact, and therefore, no adjustment has been made to the ECL for such factors. This process is reviewed and monitored for appropriateness on a quarterly basis.

Write-off policy

The Group writes-off financial assets, in whole or in part, when it has exhausted all practical recovery efforts and has concluded there is no reasonable expectation of recovery. Indicators that there is no reasonable expectation of recovery include (i) ceasing enforcement activity; and (ii) where Aegon’s recovery method is foreclosing on collateral and the value of the collateral is such that there is no reasonable expectation of recovering in full.

The Group may write-off financial assets that are still subject to enforcement activity. The outstanding contractual amounts of such assets written-off during the first half year in 2024 is not material. The Group still seeks to recover amounts it is legally owed in full, but which have been partially written off due to no reasonable expectation of full recovery.

Information about amounts arising from ECL.

Aegon regularly monitors industry sectors and individual debt securities for sources of changes in the ECL allowance. These sources may include one or more of the following:

Transfers between Stages 1, 2 and 3 due to financial instruments experiencing significant increases (or decreases) of<br>credit risk or becoming credit-impaired in the period, and the consequent “step up” (or “step down”) between 12-month and lifetime ECL;

Additional allowances for new financial instruments recognized during the period, as well as releases for financial<br>instruments de-recognized in the period;
--- ---

The Group solvency ratio **** decreased from 193% at 31 December, 2023 to 190% at 30 June, 2024 driven by the call of the EUR 700 million Tier 2 (-9%-pts), which was announced in March 2024 and executed in April 2024, the EUR 200 million second half 2024 share buyback (-3%-pts) announced in May 2024, the foreseeable interim dividend of EUR 0.16 per share (-4%-pts)

Unaudited Aegon Ltd. Form 6-K for the six months ended June 30, 2024 52

and the fungibility haircut on China in Group solvency (-2%-pts). Impact is partly offset by OCG (+7%-pts) and beneficial impacts from both markets (+3%-pts) and management actions (+2%-pts), mainly in the US. After completion of the a.s.r. combination the contribution of the a.s.r. stake in the Group solvency ratio is based on a.s.r.’s excess assets over liabilities and SCR. The revaluation of this stake in 1H 2024 combined with the EUR 114 million received dividend improved the Group solvency ratio with +2%-pt.

The table below provides the composition of Aegon’s Eligible Own Funds across Tiers:

Tier 1- unrestricted 10,219 9,633

¹ The Group Solvency ratio is an estimates, is not final until filed with the respective supervisory authority.

Liquidity

Aegon entered into a new Revolving Credit Facility (RCF) effective June 29, 2024. Initially established in 2005, this facility has been extended periodically. Eleven banks participated, each contributing USD 125 million, resulting in a total facility size of USD 1.375 billion. The facility amount was reduced from EUR 1.733 billion to USD 1.375 billion. In addition, Aegon’s syndicated USD 1.5 billion Letter of Credit Facility (LCF) maturing in 2026 was reduced to USD 750 million as of June 28, 2024.

17. Commitments and contingencies

The information given in this section is limited to the material changes that have taken place on the cases listed in Aegon’s 2023 Integrated Annual Report, and any new material cases that have commenced after the Aegon’s 2023 Integrated Annual Report was published.

The provisions on December 31, 2023, consisted of litigation provisions of EUR 65 million (2022: EUR 71 million) mainly related to settlement in the United States in case alleging mischaracterization of agents and associates as independent contractors instead of employees (see Annual Report on Form 20-F 2023 note 39 Commitments and contingencies).

In 2024, the parties have agreed to a settlement and are awaiting court approval of the settlement.

18. Companies and businesses acquired anddivested

In February 2024 Aegon completed a strategic partnership with Nationwide Building Society (NBS) whereby Aegon acquired the existing financial planning service of NBS. The total consideration paid amounted EUR 41.2 million and a deferred consideration of EUR 11 million. The total fair value of the customer-related intangible asset recognized amounts to EUR 29.8 million, the goodwill recognized amounts EUR 22.4 million. The goodwill represents the value of the assembled workforce, platform cost synergies and the ability of the established business to increase returns on an assembled collection of net assets.

19. Post reporting date events

On July 8, 2024, Aegon began a EUR 200 million share buyback that was announced on May 16, 2024. The share buyback is expected to be completed on December 13, 2024, barring unforeseen circumstances. Aegon engages a third party to execute the buyback transactions on its behalf. The common shares are to be repurchased at a maximum of the average of the daily volume-weighted average prices during the repurchase period. Aegon intends to cancel these shares. The share buyback program will be executed in compliance with the EU’s Market Abuse Regulation.

Aegon has entered into an agreement with its largest shareholder, Vereniging Aegon, to participate in the new EUR 200 million share buyback program. The repurchase of shares from Vereniging Aegon also began on July 8, 2024, and is expected to be completed on December 13, 2024, barring unforeseen circumstances.

Vereniging Aegon will participate pro-rata in the share buyback program based on its combined common shares and common shares B which represent about 18.4% of the total shareholders’ voting rights; this results in a buyback amount of EUR 37 million. The number of common shares that Aegon will repurchase from Vereniging Aegon will be determined based on the daily volume-weighted average price per common share on Euronext Amsterdam.

ITEM 2: OPERATING AND FINANCIAL REVIEW AND PROSPECTS

2.1 Introduction

Aegon is committed to provide information on key factors that drive its business and affect its financial condition, results, and value. Aegon’s disclosure practices have been developed over many years with due consideration of the needs and requirements of its stakeholders, including regulators, investors, and research analysts.

Aegon has substantive supplemental information in its annual and semi-annual accounts to provide transparency of its financial results. Aegon has provided insight into its critical accounting policies and the methodologies Aegon applies to manage its risks. For a discussion of critical accounting policies see paragraph 2.2 “Application of Critical Accounting Policies – IFRS Accounting Policies”. For a discussion of Aegon’s risk management methodologies see Item 11, “Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk” as referred to in the cross-reference table in Aegon’s Annual Report on Form 20-F (Form 20-F) filed with the SEC on April 4, 2024.

2.2 Application of Critical Accounting Policies - IFRS Accounting Policies

The Operating and Financial Review and Prospects are based upon Aegon’s condensed consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with IFRS as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (IFRS).

Application of the accounting policies in the preparation of the financial statements requires management to apply judgment involving assumptions and estimates concerning future results or other developments, including the likelihood, timing or amount of future transactions or events. Those estimates are inherently subject to change and actual results could differ from those estimates. Accounting policies that are critical to the financial statement presentation and that require complex estimates or significant judgment are described in the 2023 Form 20-F, 2024 updates are included under note 2 Material accounting policy information and estimates, note 12 Insurance contracts, reinsurance contracts and investment contracts with discretionary participating features, and note 15 Financial risks in Item 1.

The description of Aegon’s methods of determining fair value and fair value hierarchy is included in the 2023 Form 20-F (i.e. note 38 Fair value of the notes to the consolidated financial statements). For reference purposes, note 10 Fair Value of the notes to the condensed consolidated interim financial statements in Item 1 includes a roll-forward of Level III financial instruments for the six-month period ended June 30, 2024.

There have been no material changes other than listed above.

2.3 Results of operations

Strategy

Aegon is an international financial services holding company. Aegon’s ambition is to build leading businesses that offer their customers investment, protection, and retirement solutions. Aegon’s portfolio of businesses includes fully owned businesses in the United States and United Kingdom, and a global asset manager. Aegon also creates value by combining its international expertise with strong local partners via insurance joint ventures in Spain & Portugal, China, and Brazil, and via asset management partnerships in France and China. In addition, Aegon owns a Bermuda-based life insurer and generates value via a strategic shareholding in a market leading Dutch insurance and pensions company. Aegon is taking significant steps to improve its performance and to create sustainable value for all of its stakeholders.

Aegon’s businesses in the US have been divided into Financial Assets and Strategic Assets. The aim is to reduce Aegon’s exposure to Financial Assets and improve the predictability of capital generation from these assets. Aegon intends to, over time, reallocate capital from Financial Assets to growth opportunities in Strategic Assets, partnerships, and the global asset manager. Exposure to businesses outside of Aegon’s core focus has been largely eliminated over recent years, most recently with the divestment of the business in India, which was completed on February 23, 2024.

Throughout its transformation, Aegon aims to maintain a solid capital position in its business units and at the Holding. Through proactive risk management actions, Aegon is improving its risk profile and reducing the volatility of its capital ratios. This is underscored by Aegon’s capital strength.

The next chapter in Aegon’s strategy is expected to lead to operating capital generation from its units of around EUR 1.2 billion, and of free cash flow of around EUR 800 million by 2025. Aegon aims to grow its dividend per share to around EUR 0.40 over 2025, barring unforeseen circumstances and subject to the necessary approvals. Gross financial leverage is expected to remain at around EUR 5 billion.

Transaction with a.s.r.

On July 4, 2023, Aegon announced the completion of the combination of its Dutch pension, life and non-life insurance, banking, and mortgage origination activities with a.s.r., and the beginning of its asset management partnership with a.s.r. As part of the transaction, Aegon received EUR 2.2 billion in cash proceeds and a 29.99% strategic shareholding in a.s.r. The associated EUR 1.535 billion share buyback program was completed on June 28, 2024.

2024 UK webinar

On June 25, 2024, Aegon hosted a webinar to present its plans to accelerate the transformation of Aegon UK into a leading digital savings and retirement platform. The webinar focused on the interconnected business model of Aegon UK with three growth franchises: the Workplace platform, the Adviser platform (formerly known as Retail), and the Advice franchise.

Transamerica – Aegon’s business in the United States – has a long and proud history of making financial services available to the many, not just the few. The company aims to accelerate its growth and become America’s leading middle market life insurance and retirement company. Since the beginning of this year, we have grouped Transamerica’s Strategic Assets into three business segments: Distribution, Savings & Investments and Protection Solutions. The results of Financial Assets are presented as a fourth segment. Non-insurance businesses are reflected in Distribution and Savings & Investments while Protection Solutions and Financial Assets contain the insurance businesses.

During the first half of 2024, Strategic Assets have experienced strong business growth while we continue to implement management actions to reduce the exposure to Financial Assets, consistent with Aegon’s strategy.

Strategic Assets business update: Distribution

Transamerica’s Distribution business segment consists of World Financial Group (WFG), its wholly owned life insurance agency, and Transamerica Financial Advisors. Transamerica’s ambition is to increase the number of WFG agents to 110,000 by 2027, while at the same time improving agent productivity.

At the end of the first half of 2024, WFG had 78,978 licensed agents. This is an increase of 13% compared with the same period in 2023 and was a result of the successful training of new recruits to become licensed agents. Over the same period, the number of multi-ticket agents – those selling more than one life policy per 12 months – increased by 9% to 37,476 agents. Transamerica’s market share in the WFG distribution channel in the US amounted to 64% for life products in the first half of 2024 and remained consistent with the level observed throughout 2023, building on the service experience for WFG agents and products tailored to the US middle market.

Strategic Assets business update: Savings & Investments

Transamerica’s Savings & Investments business segment includes Retirement Plans, Mutual Funds, and Stable Value Solutions. The growth focus lies in recordkeeping and investment services for US defined contribution plans and individual retirement accounts (IRAs), as well as advice to plan participants. The Retirement Plan business aims to increase profitability by growing assets in the General Account Stable Value and IRA propositions, focusing on mid-sized and pooled plans, and delivering managed advice and other ancillary products and services.

Net deposits

Retirement Plans net outflows of USD 0.8 billion in the first half of 2024 were 19% lower compared with the same period of the prior year. Net deposits for mid-sized plans increased to USD 1.2 billion in the reporting period, compared with net deposits of USD 1.0 billion in the first half of 2023. This was driven by higher gross deposits for mid-sized plans benefiting from the large pooled plan sale of USD 1.7 billion in the first quarter of 2023 which led to deposits in the current reporting period. This more than offset higher withdrawals. Large-market plans recorded net outflows of USD 2.6 billion, a similar amount compared with the first half of the prior year, as higher gross deposits in large-market plans were more than offset by outflows from contract discontinuances and higher participant withdrawals. Part of the eligible participant withdrawals were rolled over to IRAs in an effort to consolidate assets and retain customers, which generated USD 0.6 billion of net deposits during the reporting period.

Net outflows for Mutual Funds amounted to USD 1.2 billion in the first half of 2024, compared with USD 0.2 billion in the same period of 2023. This mainly reflected gross deposits decreasing by USD 0.8 billion compared with the prior year period as investors prefer cash and shorter term investment alternatives in the current interest rate environment. Redemptions increased compared with the same period of 2023.

Account balances

Account balances in Retirement Plans increased to USD 229 billion at the end of the first half of 2024, up from USD 206 billion at the end of the first half of 2023. Mid-sized plans accounted for USD 52 billion of the total account balances in Retirement Plans at the end of the reporting period, compared with USD 45 billion at the end of the first half of 2023.

Transamerica aims to grow and diversify revenue streams by expanding both the General Account Stable Value product and IRAs to USD 16 billion and USD 18 billion of assets under management, respectively, by 2027. Assets under management in the General Account Stable Value product increased by 6% compared with the end of June 2023 to USD 11.4 billion as of June 30, 2024. IRA account balances increased by 19% compared with the end of June 2023 to USD 11.3 billion as of June 30, 2024, driven by efforts to retain assets from retirement plans, additional customer deposits, and favorable equity markets over the past year.

Strategic Assets business update: Protection Solutions

Transamerica’s Protection Solutions business segment includes insurance businesses covering Individual Life, Individual Health, Workplace Life, Workplace Health, and Indexed Annuities lines of business. The Indexed Annuities line of business includes registered index linked annuities (RILA) and fixed indexed annuities (FIA). Transamerica is investing in its product manufacturing capabilities and operating model to position its Protection Solutions business for further growth in the US middle market, with distribution through both WFG and third parties.

New life sales

Transamerica targets around USD 750 million of annual new life sales in Individual Life by 2027. In the first half-year of 2024, Individual Life generated new life sales of USD 245 million, an increase of 5% compared with the prior year period supported by all distribution channels. WFG represented 71% of total Individual Life sales in this half-year. The increase in sales was driven by the indexed universal life product line, which is the main Transamerica product marketed by WFG, partially offset by lower traditional life sales driven by competitive pressures in the term life market.

Workplace Life reported new life sales of USD 40 million compared with USD 43 million in the first half-year of 2023; the latter included the sale of a large contract.

Netdeposits Indexed Annuities

Net deposits for Indexed Annuities products amounted to USD 505 million in the first half-year of 2024. Of that total, RILA products contributed net deposits of USD 531 million in the first half of 2024, compared with USD 197 million in the same period of 2023. This was driven by enhanced wholesale distribution capacity and improved sales productivity for this product.

New premium production Workplace Health

In the first half of 2024, new premium production for Workplace Health insurance amounted to USD 67 million, an increase of 10% compared with the same period of 2023, driven by a new large voluntary benefits contract.

Update on Financial Assets

Financial Assets are blocks of business that are capital intensive with relatively low returns on the capital employed. Transamerica is actively managing variable annuities with interest rate sensitive riders, fixed annuities including Single Premium Group Annuities (SPGAs), the legacy universal life book, and long-term care portfolios as Financial Assets.

Transamerica is taking in-force management actions on Financial Assets that are expected to reduce the capital employed by USD 1.2 billion, which, in addition to the assumed organic run-off, would lead to having USD 2.2 billion of capital employed by year end 2027. On June 30, 2024, Financial Assets had USD 3.5 billion of capital employed, a decrease of USD 0.6 billion compared with December 31, 2022, which is the reference date for this target. The decrease was mainly driven by favorable market impacts in the variable annuities portfolio, the earlier expansion of the dynamic hedging program for the Variable Annuities guaranteed benefits to include the lapse and mortality margins, as well as the reinsurance of a universal life portfolio.

Universal Life

The legacy Universal Life portfolio includes universal life policies with and without secondary guarantees, as well as a portfolio reinsured from Transamerica Life Bermuda. Transamerica is currently executing a management action to purchase institutionally owned universal life policies to reduce the mortality risk of the overall portfolio. By 2027, Transamerica aims to have purchased 40% of the USD 7 billion face value of institutionally owned universal life policies that were in-force at the end of 2021. By the end of the first half-year of 2024, the company had purchased 36% of the face value of institutionally owned universal life policies focusing on older age policies with large face amounts.

Long-Term Care

Transamerica is actively managing its long-term care business, primarily through premium rate increase programs. The company continues to work with state regulators to get pending and future actuarially justified rate increases approved. At its 2023 Capital Markets Day, Aegon announced its intention to achieve an additional net present value of USD 700 million of premium rate increases. The total value of premium rate increases approved by the states achieved since the beginning of 2023 amounts to USD 395 million, which is 56% of the target. Claims experience continues to track well with assumptions, with the actual-to-expected claim ratio being mildly unfavorable at 103% in the first half of 2024. IFRS liabilities capture the best-estimate view on both future claims, future premiums and related anticipated rate increases.

Variable Annuities

The portfolio of variable annuities with significant interest sensitive riders is a legacy block that will run off over time, and that has been de-risked by dynamically hedging the market risk associated with guaranteed benefit riders, including the statutory lapse and mortality margins. In the first half of 2024, the hedge program was 99% effective, continuing its strong track record of managing the financial market risks embedded in the guarantees.

Net outflows in Variable Annuities amounted to USD 3.1 billion in the first half-year of 2024, compared with USD 2.4 billion in the same period last year, in line with expectations for this Financial Asset. Gross deposits in Variable Annuities increased by 25% to USD 0.7 billion in the first half of 2024, mainly from growing sales in a variable annuity product with limited guarantees. This was more than offset by higher surrenders, which are in line with long-term best estimates.

Fixed Annuities

The Fixed Annuities portfolio is a Financial Asset that will run off relatively quickly over time. Net outflows in the run-off Fixed Annuities book amounted to USD 377 million in the first half of 2024, compared with net outflows of USD 405 million in the same period of last year. Surrender and withdrawal rates for Fixed Annuities increased in the reporting period, but remained in line with long-term best estimates. In addition, a portfolio of Single Premium Guaranteed Annuities (SPGAs) is managed as a Financial Asset and had net outflows of USD 116 million in the first half-year of 2024, which was about the same compared with the prior year reporting period.

In the United Kingdom, Aegon aims to become the leading digital savings and retirement platform provider in the workplace and adviser markets.

Strategic developments

In April 2023, Aegon announced the sale of its UK individual protection book to Royal London, which supports Aegon’s strategy to focus on its core activities in the UK. The Part VII transfer of the individual protection policies was completed on July 1, 2024.

In August, 2023, Aegon announced an extension of its strategic partnership with Nationwide Building Society (NBS), under which NBS’ financial planning teams moved to Aegon UK. In addition, Aegon UK will continue to provide the platform on which NBS members manage their investments. The transaction, which supports Aegon’s strategy to grow its Advice franchise, was completed on February 1, 2024.

On June 25, 2024, Aegon hosted a webinar to present its plans to accelerate the transformation of Aegon UK into a leading digital savings and retirement platform. The webinar focused on the interconnected business model of Aegon UK with three growth franchises: the Workplace platform, the Adviser platform (formerly known as Retail), and the Advice franchise.

The transformation will enable Aegon UK to grow the combined assets under administration of the combined Adviser and Workplace platforms to above GBP 135 billion by 2028 and to increase its operating capital generation by around 12% per year from approximately GBP 120 million in 2024. Aegon UK’s IFRS operating result is expected to increase to around GBP 190 million in 2028 from around GBP 165 million in 2024. Remittances to the Holding are expected to increase by around GBP 5 million per year during the transformation, starting from approximately GBP 100 million in 2024, with potential for higher remittance growth after the investment period. Aegon UK will self-fund the transformation allowing a small decrease in UK SE Solvency II level.

Business update

Net deposits

Net deposits in the Workplace platform amounted to GBP 1.7 billion in the first half of 2024, compared with net deposits of GBP 1.5 billion in the same period of 2023. The increase was driven by continued elevated levels of inflows due to the onboarding of new schemes and higher net deposits on existing schemes. For the Adviser platform, net outflows amounted to GBP 1.8 billion in the first half of 2024 compared with net outflows of GBP 1.1 billion in the prior year period. This reflects a continued reduction of customer activity due to the current macro-economic environment, and increasing consolidation and vertical integration in non-target adviser segments.

Net outflows in Traditional products amounted to GBP 0.8 billion compared with net outflows of GBP 0.5 billion in the same period of 2023, as this book gradually runs off. For the Institutional business, net deposits amounted to GBP 1.2 billion in the first half of 2024, compared with GBP 3.0 billion in the same period of 2023. This decrease was due to the prior year period benefiting from the onboarding of a large client. The Institutional business is low-margin and net deposits for this business can be lumpy.

Assets under administration

Total Platform Assets under Administration (AuA) consisting of the Workplace platform and the Adviser platform, increased by 11% compared with June 30, 2023, to GBP 111 billion. During the same period, overall AuA, which also includes Traditional products and the Institutional business, increased by 11% to GBP 216 billion.

Strategic developments

In July 2023, Aegon announced the sale of its 56% stake in its associate in India, Aegon Life Insurance Company, to Bandhan Financial Holdings Limited, an Indian financial services company. This transaction was completed on February 23, 2024.

Business update

New life sales

New life sales decreased to EUR 140 million in the first half of 2024, down 20% compared with the first half of 2023.

¨ New life sales in Spain & Portugal decreased by EUR 8 million to EUR 17 million due to lower sales,<br>driven by the high interest rate environment which continues to affect mortgage sales in Spain.
¨ New life sales in China decreased by EUR 37 million to EUR 44 million, mostly driven by the negative impact<br>of a pricing regulation related to insurance products with guaranteed interest rates.

--- ---

New premium production for non-life business

New premium production for accident & health insurance amounted to EUR 23 million, a decrease of 19% compared with the first half of 2023, driven by lower sales from both accident and health products in Spain and partially offset by higher sales in Portugal.

New premium production for property & casualty insurance decreased by 5% to EUR 36 million, driven by lower demand for mortgages in Spain due to higher interest rates resulting in fewer household policies being sold. This was partially offset by higher sales in single premium products linked to consumer loans driven by a successful bank campaign, and by higher sales in Portugal.

Aegon Asset Management (Aegon AM) aims to improve efficiency and drive growth through third-party assets, and by increasing the share of proprietary investment solutions in its affiliate business.

Strategic developments

Aegon AM has decided to further simplify its activities in Global Platforms to improve efficiency and profitability. Its focus lies on three core competencies: growth in alternative fixed income assets and real assets, being a recognized leader in responsible investing and helping partners with retirement and fiduciary solutions to build market leading retirement platforms. As a result, Aegon AM is rationalizing its product set and has taken cost reduction measures.

Business update

Net deposits

Third-party net deposits in Global Platforms amounted to EUR 5.1 billion in the first half of 2024, compared with net outflows of EUR 0.6 billion in the same period of 2023. The net deposits in the first half of 2024 were mostly driven by a large new fiduciary client in the Netherlands and by fixed income in the UK, due to strong fund performance and the onboarding of a large client. Alternative fixed income also contributed favorably, as well as the asset management partnership with a.s.r.

Net deposits in Strategic Partnerships amounted to EUR 2.7 billion in the first half of 2024, compared with net outflows of EUR 0.6 billion in the same period last year, and were driven by Aegon’s Chinese asset management joint venture, Aegon Industrial Fund Management Company (AIFMC). The increase in net deposits was mostly driven by money market funds, in part due to a new collaboration with a consumer finance platform. La Banque Postale AM also recorded positive net deposits, despite the impact of continued withdrawals of low-margin business from a former shareholder.

Net outflows from the general account amounted to EUR 1.7 billion in the first half of 2024, compared with net outflows of EUR 0.7 billion in the prior year period. The increase in net outflows were driven by money market funds

Net outflows from affiliates amounted to EUR 1.4 billion in the first half of 2024, compared with net outflows of EUR 0.5 billion in the same period of 2023. The increase in net outflows was mainly due to the onboarding of a large new client in the US in the comparable period last year.

Annualized revenues gained / (lost) on net deposits

Annualized revenues gained on net deposits for Global Platforms amounted to EUR 4.0 million in the first half of 2024, driven by net deposits.

Assets under management

Assets under management increased by EUR 25 billion compared with June 30, 2023, to EUR 318 billion. The increase was driven by the impact of favorable markets, the positive balance of assets exchanged between Aegon AM and a.s.r., and third-party net deposits.

Maintaining a strong balance sheet is a prerequisite for Aegon to achieve its financial and strategic objectives. It allows the company to build leading, advantaged businesses that create value for its customers, shareholders, and other stakeholders. Aegon has a clear capital management framework in place that informs its capital deployment decisions. This framework is based on maintaining an adequate capitalization of its business units, Cash Capital at Holding, and gross financial leverage.

Capital ratios

US RBC ratio

The estimated RBC ratio in the US increased from 432% on December 31, 2023 to 446% on June 30, 2024, remaining above the operating level of 400%. During the first half of 2024, market movements had a 11%-point positive impact on the RBC ratio, mainly driven by higher interest rates and favorable equity markets, as well as favorable recoveries of impaired credit instruments. One-time items and management actions had a positive impact of 5%-points, whereby the annual actuarial assumption and modelling updates, changes to diversification factors, and restructuring charges combined for a favorable impact. Operating capital generation from operating entities applying the RBC framework had a positive contribution of 16%-points to the RBC ratio, which was offset by remittances to the Holding.

UK SE SolvencyII ratio

The estimated UK Solvency II ratio for Scottish Equitable Plc increased from 187% on December 31, 2023, to 189% on June 30, 2024, and remained above the operating level of 150%. A positive impact from operating capital generation was largely offset by the impact from remittances.

Group solvency ratio

The estimated group solvency ratio decreased from 193% on December 31, 2023, to 190% on June 30, 2024. This was mainly a reflection of the redemption of EUR 700 million grandfathered Tier 2 securities in April 2024, the new EUR 200 million share buyback program, the announced 2024 interim dividend, and the previously announced fungibility haircut on the own funds of the Chinese insurance joint venture, Aegon THTF Life Insurance Company. Capital generation after holding funding and operating expenses amounted to EUR 0.9 billion. This included market movements with a positive impact of EUR 140 million, mostly driven by the US. Furthermore, one-time items were favorable at EUR 292 million, and notably included the impact of management actions in the US, while also reflecting impacts from the a.s.r. stake.

Cash Capital at Holding and free cash flow

Aegon’s Cash Capital at Holding decreased during the first half of 2024 from EUR 2,387 million to EUR 2,090 million. This decrease was largely due to EUR 686 million of capital returns to shareholders, driven by the share buyback program that was launched upon the completion of the a.s.r. transaction, and which is now completed. Free cash flow amounted to EUR 373 million and included the 2023 final dividend from a.s.r. Divestures and acquisitions amounted to EUR 16 million driven by the net proceeds related to the sale of Aegon Life Insurance Company in India. Furthermore, in April 2024, a EUR 700 million subordinated bond matured and was redeemed and refinanced by a USD 760 million senior bond. The resulting change in gross financial leverage had a small positive impact of EUR 8 million on Cash Capital at Holding. Other items combined had a negative impact of EUR 8 million.

Interim dividend 2024

Aegon aims to pay a sustainable dividend to allow equity investors to participate in the company’s performance, which can grow over time if Aegon’s performance so allows. At its 2023 Capital Markets Day, Aegon set a target for dividend growth to around EUR 0.40 per common share over 2025. Aegon announces today an interim dividend for 2024 of EUR 0.16 per common share, which represents an increase of EUR 0.02 compared with the interim dividend for 2023.

Aegon’s shares will be quoted ex-dividend on September 4, 2024. The record date for the dividend will be September 5, 2024, and the dividend will be payable as of September 26, 2024.

Share buyback programs

On July 6, 2023, Aegon announced the beginning of a EUR 1.5 billion share buyback program. This program followed the completion of the combination of its Dutch pension, life and non-life insurance, banking, and mortgage origination activities with a.s.r. On April 9 2024, Aegon announced that it would increase the share buyback program by EUR 35 million in the context of repurchasing shares related to share-based compensation plans. On June 28, 2024, Aegon completed the EUR 1.535 billion share buyback program.

Unaudited Aegon Ltd. Form 6-K for the six months ended June 30, 2024 68

On May 16, 2024, Aegon announced a new EUR 200 million share buyback program, consistent with its policy to return excess Cash Capital at Holding to shareholders in the absence of value-creating opportunities. The share buyback program commenced on July 8, 2024, and is expected to be completed on December 13, 2024, barring unforeseen circumstances.

In line with its previously announced intention, Aegon has canceled 127 million of common shares in July 2024. As a consequence, Aegon has 2,077,525,434 shares that are issued (consisting of 1,687,766,194 common shares and 389,759,240 common shares B) on the date of these statements.

Net result

The result before tax amounted to a loss of EUR 83 million, as the operating result was more than offset by the Other charges and non-operating items. The tax benefit for the quarter period amounts to EUR 18 million and includes recurring beneficial impacts such as the dividend received deduction and tax credits in the US. The net result, therefore, was a loss of EUR 65 million.

Operating result

Aegon’s operating result decreased by 8% compared with the first half of 2023 to EUR 750 million, mostly driven by the Americas, reflecting unfavorable mortality experience and a lower net investment result in Financial Assets. These impacts more than offset business growth of the Strategic Assets in the US. Results also improved in the asset management business, driven by business growth and a one-time expense benefit.

Americas

The operating result from the Americas decreased by 12% to EUR 550 million in the first half of 2024, from EUR 628 million in the same period in 2023. In local currency, the operating result from the Americas decreased by USD 85 million to USD 594 million. This decrease was driven by unfavorable mortality experience and a decrease of the net investment result in the Financial Assets business segment. This was partly offset by an increase of the operating result across all three Strategic Asset business segments, reflecting business growth. This rebalancing towards a larger contribution of Strategic Assets in the earnings mix is consistent with Aegon’s strategy.

Unaudited Aegon Ltd. Form 6-K for the six months ended June 30, 2024 70

The operating result of the Distribution business segment increased by 20% to USD 95 million in the first half of 2024, compared with the first half of 2023 and was largely driven by WFG. The operating result increased mainly due to higher net commission revenues following more sales from a growing number of agents, and higher revenue sharing income from third-party product providers related to increased sales volumes. Increasing revenues were partly offset by a small increase of operating expenses.

In the Savings & Investments business segment, the operating result increased to USD 142 million in the first half-year of 2024, compared with USD 124 million in the same period of the prior year. This was mainly driven by Retirement Plans due to a 10% increase of revenues in the reporting period compared with the first half of 2023. This increase mainly resulted from higher fees on higher average account balances, and higher net investment income from more assets invested at higher returns in the general account stable value fund. This was only partly offset by higher employee and technology expenses. Revenues in Mutual Funds increased by 1% in the first half of 2024, compared with the prior year period due to higher fees on higher average asset balances driven by market performance. The Stable Value Solutions line of business had lower revenues due to a reduction of the revenue generating investment balance from contract terminations and participant withdrawals.

In Protection Solutions, the operating result increased by 37% to USD 292 million in the first half-year of 2024, compared with the first half of 2023 driven by a growing portfolio. First, the net investment result increased by USD 86 million to USD 251 million in the first half of 2024. This was driven by higher investment balances and higher book yields in a favorable market environment that increased investment income, combined with a methodology change in 2023, that henceforth reduced interest accretion on Indexed Universal Life liabilities. Secondly, a growing CSM balance was the main driver of an increase of the release of CSM by USD 46 million to USD 141 million in the reporting period. Experience variance on claims, expenses, and other items was only slightly unfavorable in this period, while there was USD 44 million of unfavorable experience variance in the prior year reporting period. Onerous contracts in the portfolio were USD 40 million unfavorable, mainly from further cohorts of Term Life becoming onerous in the first half of 2024. In addition, a more unfavorable Other insurance result was driven by a change in the allocation of recurring expenses that had previously been reported as expense experience variances. Furthermore, onerous new business decreased the operating result of Protection Solutions by USD 22 million in the first half of 2024.

The operating result of Financial Assets decreased to USD 64 million in the first half-year of 2024, compared with USD 261 million in the prior year reporting period. Mortality claims experience was USD 116 million unfavorable from large claims on old age policies in Universal Life. Morbidity claims payment experience that is reflected in the operating result was USD 14 million worse than expected; however, it was more than offset by a related increase of expected future profits reflected in the CSM. Onerous contracts were USD 13 million unfavorable in the first half of 2024, mainly driven by purchases of universal life policies from institutional investors, partly offset by updates to the in-force portfolio. Furthermore, the net investment result decreased from a gain of USD 70 million in the first half of 2023 by USD 103 million to a loss of USD 33 million in the reporting period. The decrease was partly driven by a USD 47 million one-time gain in the first half-year of 2023. In addition, asset levels decreased as a result of the run-off of the book and management actions taken, including the reinsurance of a universal life portfolio to Wilton Re in the second half of 2023. Investment income from lower asset levels was only partly offset by higher book yields from investments in higher yielding assets and by lower interest accretion as the book is running off.

The model and assumption updates in the second quarter of 2024 are expected to reduce future claims experience variances, leading to a higher operating result for Transamerica’s insurance business going forward. As an indication of the amount of the expected increase, had the new assumptions already been embedded in IFRS liabilities at the beginning of the year, the operating result for the first half of 2024 would have been approximately USD 50 million higher.

United Kingdom

The operating result from the UK for the first half-year of 2024 was EUR 94 million, or GBP 80 million in local currency, compared to GBP 97 million in the prior year period. The variance compared to 2023 was driven by the protection book, mostly from unfavorable claims experience in the reporting period. The sale of the protection book was completed on July 1, 2024. Higher revenues from business growth, improved markets and a higher CSM release broadly offset higher expenses in the fee business.

Unaudited Aegon Ltd. Form 6-K for the six months ended June 30, 2024 71

International

The operating result from the International segment decreased by 5% to EUR 90 million in the first half of 2024, compared with the first half of 2023. This was mainly driven by a lower operating result in TLB resulting from unfavorable experience variances on claims and expenses, and a lower asset balance as a consequence of the reinsurance transaction between TLB and Transamerica. This was partly offset by higher operating results in the other International units. The operating result in Brazil increased, benefiting from business growth, favorable claims experience, and an increase of Aegon’s economic stake in the joint venture. In China, the operating result increased reflecting expense reductions and business growth. Spain also reported an increase in operating result, which was mainly due to more favorable claims experience in the joint ventures.

Asset Management

The operating result from Aegon AM amounted to EUR 107 million in the first half of 2024, an increase of 44% compared with the same period of 2023, driven by both Global Platforms and Strategic Partnerships. Global Platforms benefited from the expansion of the CLO business, and the asset management partnership with a.s.r. It also benefited from favorable markets which drove higher management fees, and ongoing expense management. In Strategic Partnerships, the operating result increased mainly driven by a one-time expense benefit from AIFMC, which more than offset the impact from adverse market conditions in China. LBP AM’s operating result contribution more than doubled, benefiting from the expansion of the LBP AM joint venture.

Holding

The operating result from the Holding remained stable at a loss of EUR 91 million, and mainly reflects funding and operating expenses.

Non-operating items

The loss from non-operating items amounted to EUR 430 million in the first half of 2024, mainly due to fair value losses.

Fair value items

Fair value items were a loss of EUR 312 million, mainly driven by the Americas and the UK.

In the Americas, fair value losses amounted to EUR 260 million in the first half of 2024. The loss was driven by the underperformance of alternative investments while gains and losses from the product hedges offset each other. Updated valuations of multi-family real estate contributed EUR 55 million to the fair value loss while land holdings with economic exposure to lower oil and gas prices contributed EUR 152 million. Private equity underperformance resulted in losses of EUR 40 million.

In the UK, fair value losses amounted to EUR 52 million. This reflects the negative revaluations of hedges used to protect the solvency position.

Realized losses on investments

Realized losses on investments amounted to EUR 45 million and were driven by the Americas, where normal trading activity resulted in losses of EUR 48 million from the sale of fixed-income investments.

Net impairments

Net impairments amounted to EUR 72 million, of which EUR 64 million came from the Americas. Half of these impairments were related to expected credit loss (ECL) balance increases following rating downgrades of bond investments. The other half was driven by ECL reserve increases from a more conservative economic forecast on mortgages in the ECL model and the purchase of new assets.

Unaudited Aegon Ltd. Form 6-K for the six months ended June 30, 2024 72

Other charges

Other charges amounted to EUR 403 million, and were mainly driven by the Americas and, to a lesser extent, by the UK.

Other charges in the Americas amounted to EUR 361 million in the first half of 2024. These were driven by charges of EUR 373 million related to various assumption and model updates in the context of Transamerica’s annual actuarial assumption review in the second quarter. This charge mostly related to updated mortality assumptions for universal life and term life products, where the book has been experiencing volatile and unfavorable claims experience. The new assumptions are more consistent with the past experience and resulted in an increase of best-estimate liabilities for onerous contracts, and consequently impacted Other charges. Other charges also included EUR 82 million of restructuring charges, largely offset by a gain related to a third-party recapture of a block of policies reinsured by a Transamerica entity.

Other charges in the UK amounted to EUR 28 million and were largely driven by investments in the transformation of the business.

The result from Aegon’s stake in a.s.r. led to an Other income of EUR 26 million in the first half of 2024 reflecting our stake in a.s.r’s net result.

Expenses

Operating expenses increased by 1% compared with the first half of 2023 to EUR 1,509 million. Higher addressable expenses were partially offset by lower restructuring charges and one-time investments in the US.

Addressable expenses increased by EUR 71 million on a constant currency basis when compared with the first half of 2023, to EUR 1,297 million. This was mainly driven by increased expenses in the Americas and UK. In the Americas, this reflects higher expenses related to the Life operating model, including the insourcing of various functions following the strategy announced at the 2023 CMD. For the UK, this reflects higher employee expenses including the onboarding of Nationwide’s financial planning teams.

New business value

With the introduction of IFRS 17, Aegon uses two measures for valuing new business. For insurance products accounted for under IFRS 17, Aegon calculates an “IFRS new business value,” which is defined as the CSM added as a result of writing profitable new life insurance business, offset by the loss associated with any new onerous contracts issued, both after tax and reinsurance. For other products for which Aegon has traditionally reported a market consistent value of new business (MCVNB), but that are not captured by IFRS new business value, Aegon continues to calculate an MCVNB. The two measures combined comprise New Business Value.

Aegon’s total New Business Value amounted to EUR 290 million in the first half of 2024, compared with EUR 316 million in the first half of 2023. In the first half of 2024, it included IFRS new business value of EUR 182 million, and MCVNB of EUR 108 million. While IFRS new business value increased mainly due to higher new individual life sales in the Americas, overall New Business Value declined, mainly due to the impact of expense assumption changes on MCVNB in the Retirement Plans line of business in the Americas.

Americas

The New Business Value in the Americas amounted to EUR 211 million or USD 228 million, a decrease of 5% compared with the first half of 2023.

Unaudited Aegon Ltd. Form 6-K for the six months ended June 30, 2024 73

The decrease was driven by a lower MCVNB for Retirement Plans, which came in at EUR 38 million in the first half-year of 2024, compared with EUR 67 million in the same period of 2023. The decrease was a result of expense assumption changes at the end of 2023, and higher written sales in the first half of 2023 that did not repeat this year.

Over the same period, the IFRS new business value increased by 11% to EUR 173 million, of which EUR 156 million were from new business in Protection Solutions compared with EUR 144 million in the first half of 2023. In Protection Solutions, the main contributors to IFRS new business value were increased sales of Indexed Universal Life products and improved profitability of Traditional Life and Workplace Life products. This was partly offset by an increase of new sales of onerous contracts in Workplace Health. The IFRS new business value of Financial Assets increased by 32% to EUR 17 million in the first half-year of 2024, compared with the first half-year of 2023, and was entirely driven by sales of a variable annuity product with limited guarantees.

United Kingdom

In the UK, total New Business Value amounted to EUR 29 million in the first half of 2024, a decrease of EUR 12 million compared with the first half of 2023.

IFRS new business value amounted to EUR 6 million in the first half of 2024, a decrease of EUR 1 million compared with the first half of 2023. New business generated during the period was driven by upgrades of traditional products to the digital platforms, which will reduce over time. The majority of the new business generated on the platform businesses is not reported under IFRS 17.

The MCVNB for the pension business of the UK that is accounted for under IFRS 9 decreased from EUR 34 million in the first half of 2023 to EUR 23 million in the first half of 2024. This decrease was driven by the impact of an assumption update.

International

The New Business Value in International amounted to EUR 50 million, a decrease of EUR 1 million compared with the first half of 2023.

The IFRS new business value of International – which encompasses all the new business in TLB and the longer-term business in Spain & Portugal – amounted to EUR 3 million, an increase of EUR 3 million compared with the first half of 2023. This was mainly driven by the reinsurance business in Spain.

The MCVNB of International – which represents the new business value created in China and Brazil, and the short-term business in Spain & Portugal – amounted to EUR 47 million in the first half of 2024, a decrease of EUR 5 million compared with the prior year period. The impact of business growth in Brazil was more than offset by lower sales in China.

Shareholders’ equity

As of June 30, 2024, shareholders’ equity was EUR 6.6 billion, or EUR 4.02 per common share, which is EUR 1.0 billion lower than on December 31, 2023. The reduction in equity was mainly driven by capital returns to shareholders in the first half of 2024 including the 2023 final dividend approved during the period.

Gross financial leverage

Gross financial leverage remained stable at EUR 5.1 billion in the first half of 2024. The redemption of a EUR 700 million subordinated bond that matured in April 2024 was refinanced by a USD 760 million senior bond during the same month.

Contractual Service Margin (CSM)

While the CSM balance is shown as a liability on the balance sheet, it represents a store of in-force business value that is expected to be released into earnings over time. The CSM amounted to EUR 8.7 billion per June 30, 2024, and increased by EUR 0.5 billion compared with December 31, 2023.

Unaudited Aegon Ltd. Form 6-K for the six months ended June 30, 2024 75

Over the first half of 2024, the CSM per share after estimated tax adjustment has increased by 14% from EUR 3.65 to EUR 4.17.

New business contributed EUR 263 million to the CSM, driven by business growth in the US. The CSM release of EUR 491 million was mainly driven by the run-off of the Financial Assets in the Americas and the traditional book in the UK.

Claims and policyholder experience reduced CSM by EUR 23 million. Overall net positive impacts on the CSM from claims and policyholder experience in the US was more than offset by negative impacts in the UK. Non-financial assumption changes decreased the CSM by EUR 90 million, driven by annual assumption updates in the US. Markets had a favorable impact for products accounted for under the variable fee approach (VFA) - primarily the unit-linked business in the UK and variable annuities in the US - increasing the CSM by EUR 400 million. Various other items, including favorable impacts from exchange rate changes and interest accretion, increased the CSM by EUR 438 million.

Americas

In the Americas, the CSM balance at the end of the first half-year of 2024 amounted to EUR 6,765 million, or USD 7,251 million in local currency, an increase of USD 126 million compared with December 31, 2023. An increase of the CSM balance in the Protection Solutions business segment (Strategic Assets) was only partially offset from a decrease in the CSM for Financial Assets.

Reflecting Transamerica’s strategy, the CSM balance of Protection Solutions increased by USD 338 million during the first half of 2024 to USD 3,141 million at the end of the first half of 2024. This was mainly driven by new business which contributed USD 237 million to the CSM compared with USD 214 million in the prior year period, and was only partly offset by the release of CSM of USD 141 million in the first half of 2024. Claims and policyholder experience increased the CSM by USD 109 million mainly due to more favorable expected policyholder behavior and a favorable in-force update for Indexed Universal Life. Non-financial assumption changes increased the CSM with USD 104 million mainly from favorable assumption updates for lapses in Individual Health.

The CSM balance of Financial Assets decreased by USD 212 million in the same period to USD 4,110 million at the end of the first half of 2024, mainly driven by the run-off of the book. The CSM release of USD 272 million was far in excess of CSM added from new business of USD 23 million. Non-financial assumption updates decreased the CSM by USD 238 million driven by reinsurance rate increases and recaptures in Universal Life, as well as updates to the claims utilization and cost of care assumptions in Long-Term Care. These were partly offset by the impact of lower claims incidence rates and additional anticipated premium rate increase updates. The update of the Risk Adjustment contributed USD 127 million to the CSM, mainly from an offset resulting from the assumption updates in Long-Term Care, and higher interest rates. Unfavorable impacts from claims and policyholder experience variances were more than offset by interest accretion on the CSM and favorable market impacts on Variable Annuities.

2.4 Post reporting date events

Post reporting data events are disclosed in the note 19 of the condensed consolidated interim financial information included in Item 1.

2.5 Capital and Liquidity Management

2.5.1 Guiding principles

The management of capital and liquidity is of vital importance for Aegon, for its customers, investors in Aegon securities, and for Aegon’s other stakeholders. In line with its risk tolerance, the goal of Aegon’s capital and liquidity management is to promote strong and stable capital adequacy levels for its businesses, in addition to maintaining adequate liquidity to ensure the company is able to meet its obligations.

Aegon follows a number of guiding principles in terms of capital and liquidity management:

Promoting strong capital adequacy in Aegon’s businesses and operating units
Managing and allocating capital efficiently in support of the strategy and in line with its risk tolerance<br>
--- ---
Maintaining an efficient capital structure, with an emphasis on optimizing Aegon’s cost of capital<br>
--- ---
Maintaining adequate liquidity in both the operating units and the Holding to ensure that the company is able to meet<br>its obligations by enforcing stringent liquidity risk policies
--- ---
Maintaining continued access to international capital markets on competitive terms
--- ---

Aegon believes that the combination of these guiding principles strengthens the company’s ability to withstand adverse market conditions, enhances its financial flexibility, and serves both the short-term and the long-term interests of the company, its customers, and other stakeholders.

The management and monitoring of capital and liquidity is firmly embedded in Aegon’s Enterprise Risk Management (ERM) framework.

2.5.2 Management of capital

Aegon’s capital management framework is based on adequate capitalization of its operating units, Cash Capital at Holding and leverage.

Capital adequacy of Aegon’s operating units ****

Aegon manages capital in its operating units at levels sufficient to absorb moderate shocks without impacting the remittances to the Group. These moderate shocks could be caused by various factors, including general economic conditions, financial markets risks, underwriting risks, changes in government regulations, and legal and arbitration proceedings. To mitigate the impact of such factors on the ability of operating units to pay remittances to the Group, Aegon established an operating level of capital in each of the units: 400% Risk-Based Capital (RBC) Company Action Level (CAL) in the US and 150% Solvency Capital Requirement (SCR) in the UK; based on UK Solvency II. Aegon manages capital in the units to their respective operating levels

over-the-cycle.

After investments have been made in new business to generate organic growth, capital generated by Aegon’s operating units is available for distribution to the holding company. In addition to an operating level, Aegon established a minimum dividend payment level of capital in each of the units: 350% RBC CAL in the US and 135% SCR in the UK; based on UK Solvency II. As long as the capital position of the unit is above this minimum dividend payment level, the unit is expected to pay remittances to the Group.

When the operating unit’s capital position approaches the minimum dividend payment level, capital management tools will be used to ensure that units will remain well capitalized. The frequent monitoring of actual and forecasted capitalization levels of its operating units is an important element in Aegon’s capital framework in order to actively maintain adequate capitalization levels.

Unaudited Aegon Ltd. Form 6-K for the six months ended June 30, 2024 77

The regulatory capital requirement, minimum dividend payment level, operating level, and actual capitalization for Aegon’s main operating units at June 30, 2024 are included in the following table:

Capital requirements as per June 30, 2024 Regulatory capital<br><br><br>requirement Minimum dividend<br><br><br>payment level Operating<br><br><br>level Actual<br><br><br>capitalization
US RBC ratio 100% RBC CAL 350% 400% 446%
Scottish Equitalel Plc (UK) Solvency ratio 100% SII SCR 135% 150% 189%

2.5.3 Improving risk-return profile

Aegon has an active global reinsurance program designed to optimize the risk-return profile of insurance risks. In addition, Aegon monitors the risk-return profile of new business written, withdrawing products that do not create value for its stakeholders.

Aegon continues to take measures to improve its risk-return profile. Particularly in the United States, several actions were taken to strengthen the capital position and reduce the volatility of the local capital positions.

2.5.4 Cash Capital at Holding and liquidity management

Liquidity management is a fundamental building block of Aegon’s overall financial planning and capital allocation processes. Liquidity is managed both centrally and at the operating unit level and is coordinated centrally at Aegon Ltd.

The ability of the holding company to meet its cash obligations depends on the amount of liquid assets on its balance sheet and on the ability of the operating units to pay remittances to the holding company. In order to ensure the holding company’s ability to fulfill its cash obligations, to maintain sufficient flexibility to provide capital and liquidity support to Aegon’s operating units, and to provide stability in external dividends, the company manages Cash Capital at Holding, including Aegon’s centrally managed (unregulated) holding companies, to an operating range of EUR 0.5 billion to EUR 1.5 billion.

The main sources of liquidity in Cash Capital at Holding are remittances from operating units and proceeds from divestitures. In addition, contingent internal and external liquidity programs are maintained to provide additional safeguards against extreme unexpected liquidity stresses.

Aegon uses the cash flows from its operating units to pay for holding expenses, including funding costs. The remaining free cash flow is available to execute the company’s strategy, to strengthen the balance sheet through deleveraging or make capital injections into units as required, to make acquisitions, to fund dividends on its shares, and to return capital to shareholders, if possible, all subject to maintaining targeted Cash Capital at Holding. Aegon aims to pay out a sustainable dividend to enable equity investors to share in its performance.

When determining whether to declare or propose a dividend, Aegon’s Board of Directors balances prudence with offering an attractive return to shareholders. This is particularly important during adverse economic and/or financial market conditions. Furthermore, Aegon’s operating units are subject to local insurance regulations that could restrict remittances to be paid to the holding company. There is no requirement or assurance that Aegon will declare and pay any dividends.

Liquidity management

The company’s liquidity risk policy sets guidelines for its operating companies and the Holding in order to achieve a prudent liquidity profile and to meet cash demands under extreme conditions. Aegon’s liquidity is invested in accordance with the company’s internal risk management policies. Aegon believes that its Cash Capital at Holding, backed by its external funding programs and facilities, is ample for the company’s present requirements.

Unaudited Aegon Ltd. Form 6-K for the six months ended June 30, 2024 78

Aegon maintains a liquidity policy that requires all business units to project and assess their sources and uses of liquidity over a two-year period under normal and severe business and market scenarios. This policy ensures that liquidity is measured and managed consistently across the company, and that liquidity stress management plans are in place.

Aegon’s operating units are engaged in life insurance and pensions business, which are long-term activities with relatively illiquid liabilities and generally matching assets. Liquidity consists of liquid assets held in investment portfolios, in addition to inflows generated by maturing assets, coupons and premium payments, and customer deposits.

2.5.5. Leverage

Aegon uses leverage to lower the cost of capital that supports businesses in the company, thereby contributing to a more effective and efficient use of capital. In managing the use of leverage throughout the company, Aegon has implemented a Leverage Use Framework as part of its broader ERM framework.

Financial leverage

Aegon defines gross financial leverage as debt or debtlike funding issued for general corporate purposes and for capitalizing Aegon’s business units. Gross financial leverage includes hybrid instruments, and subordinated and senior debt. In 2023, Aegon achieved its goal to reduce its gross financial leverage to around EUR 5.0 billion, as announced during the June 2023 Capital Markets Day. Gross financial leverage was EUR 5.1 billion per June 30, 2024, after a EUR 500 million reduction in gross financial leverage in December 2023 funded from the proceeds of the a.s.r. transaction.

The following are metrics that Aegon assesses in managing leverage:

Gross financial leverage ratio
Fixed charge coverage
--- ---
Various rating agency leverage metrics
--- ---
Other metrics, including gross financial leverage divided by operating capital generation
--- ---

Aegon’s gross financial leverage ratio is calculated by dividing gross financial leverage by total capitalization. Aegon’s total capitalization consists of the following components:

Shareholders’ equity based on IFRS as adopted by the EU
Non-controlling interests and shares related to long-term incentive plans that<br>have not yet vested
--- ---
Contractual service margin, excluding joint-ventures and associates, net of tax
--- ---
Gross (or total) financial leverage
--- ---

Aegon’s fixed charge coverage is a measure of the company’s ability to service its financial leverage. It is calculated as the sum of the operating result and interest expenses on financial leverage divided by interest payments on financial leverage. The fixed charge coverage includes the impact of interest rate hedging.

Operational leverage

Although operational leverage is not considered part of Aegon’s total capitalization, it is an important source of liquidity and funding. Operational leverage relates primarily to the use of a Federal Home Loan Bank (FHLB) facility.

Funding and back-up facilities

The majority of Aegon’s financial leverage is issued by Aegon Ltd., the parent company. A limited number of other Aegon companies have also issued debt securities, but for the most part these securities are guaranteed by Aegon Ltd.

Unaudited Aegon Ltd. Form 6-K for the six months ended June 30, 2024 79

To support the need for Letters of Credit (LOCs) and to enhance its liquidity position, Aegon maintains backup credit and LOC facilities with international lenders. The company’s principal arrangements comprise a USD 1.375 billion syndicated revolving credit facility and a LOC facility of USD 750 million. The syndicated revolving credit facility matures in 2029. The LOC facility matures in 2026. In addition, Aegon also maintains a number of shorter-dated bilateral backup liquidity facilities.

2.5.6 Rating agency ratings

Aegon’s objective is to maintain strong financial strength ratings in its main operating units, and this plays an important role in determining the company’s overall capital management strategy. Aegon maintains strong financial strength ratings from several international rating agencies for its operating units.

Disclaimer

Cautionary note regarding non-IFRS measures

This document includes the following non-IFRS financial measures: operating result and addressable expenses. These non-IFRS measures, except for addressable expenses, are calculated by consolidating on a proportionate basis Aegon’s joint ventures and associated companies (excluding a.s.r.). Operating result reflects Aegon’s profit before tax from underlying business operations and mainly excludes components that relate to accounting mismatches that are dependent on market volatility, updates to best estimate actuarial and economic assumptions and model updates or events that are considered outside the normal course of business. Operating expenses are all expenses associated with selling and administrative activities (excluding commissions). This includes certain expenses recorded in other charges for segment reporting, including restructuring charges. Addressable expenses are calculated by excluding the following items from operating expenses: direct variable acquisition expenses, restructuring expenses (including expenses related to the operational improvement plan), expenses in joint ventures and associates and expenses related to acquisitions and disposals. Addressable expenses are reported on a constant currency basis. Aegon believes that these non-IFRS measures, together with the IFRS information, provide meaningful supplemental information about the operating results of Aegon’s business including insight into the financial measures that senior management uses in managing the business.

Reliance on third-party information in certain of Aegon’s disclosures, which may change over time as methodologies and data availability and quality continue to evolve. These factors, as well as any inaccuracies in third-party information used by Aegon, including in estimates or assumptions, may cause results to differ materially and adversely from statements, estimates, and beliefs made by Aegon or third-parties. Moreover, Aegon’s disclosures based on any standards may change due to revisions in framework requirements, availability of information, changes in its business or applicable governmental policies, or other factors, some of which may be beyond Aegon’s control. Additionally, Aegon’s discussion of various ESG and other sustainability issues in this document or in other locations, including on our corporate website, may be informed by the interests of various stakeholders, as well as various ESG standards, frameworks, and regulations (including for the measurement and assessment of underlying data). As such, our disclosures on such issues, including climate-related disclosures, may include information that is not necessarily “material” under US securities laws for SEC reporting purposes, even if we use words such as “material” or “materiality” in relation to those statements. ESG expectations continue to evolve, often quickly, including for matters outside of our control; our disclosures are inherently dependent on the methodology (including any related assumptions or estimates) and data used, and there can be no guarantee that such disclosures will necessarily reflect or be consistent with the preferred practices or interpretations of particular stakeholders, either currently or in future.

Appendix A: Notes included in the interim report

1) Segment total operating result, operating result after tax, income tax (including joint ventures (jv’s) and<br>associated companies) and result before tax (including jv’s and associated companies) are calculated by consolidating on a proportionate basis the revenues and expenses of Aegon’s joint ventures and Aegon’s associates. With the<br>exception of Aegon’s stake in a.s.r.. The result of associate a.s.r. is included in Other income / (charges). Aegon believes that these non-IFRS measures provide meaningful information about the operating<br>results of Aegon’s business, including insight into the financial measures that Aegon’s senior management uses in managing the business. While many other insurers in Aegon’s peer group present substantially similar non-IFRS measures, the non-IFRS measures presented in this document may nevertheless differ from the non-IFRS measures presented by<br>other insurers. There is no standardized meaning to these measures under IFRS or any other recognized set of accounting standards. Readers are cautioned to consider carefully the different ways in which Aegon and its peers present similar<br>information before comparing them.
Aegon believes the non-IFRS measures shown herein, when read together with<br>Aegon’s reported IFRS financial statements, provide meaningful supplemental information for the investing public to evaluate Aegon’s business after eliminating the impact of current IFRS accounting policies for financial instruments and<br>insurance contracts, which embed a number of accounting policy alternatives that companies may select in presenting their results and that can make the comparability from period to period difficult.

Aegon’s operating segments are based on the businesses as presented in internal reports that are regularly<br>reviewed by the Executive Director which is regarded as the chief operating decision maker.
