Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

For the Years Ended 31 December 2023, 2024, and 2025

(in millions of KZT)

  • Corporate information

Overview

Kaspi.kz operates a two-sided Super App business model in Kazakhstan: the Kaspi.kz Super App for consumers and the Kaspi Pay Super App for merchants and entrepreneurs. Our offerings include payments, marketplace and fintech solutions for both consumers and merchants. Our business model, reinforced by our highly recognizable brand and continuing product innovation, generates powerful network effects, which has resulted in growth across all our platforms and strong financial performance. Since 2025 the Group operates the Hepsiburada marketplace in Türkiye.

Kaspi.kz Segments

Our segment reporting is based on our three business platforms:

  • Payments: Our Payments Platform facilitates transactions between and among merchants and consumers. For consumers, our Payments Platform is a highly convenient way to pay for shopping transactions, regular household bills and make peer-to-peer payments. For merchants, our Payments Platform enables them to accept payments online and in-store, issue and instantly settle invoices, pay suppliers and monitor merchants’ turnover. Our Payments Platform is our main customer acquisition tool and we consider it to be fundamental for high levels of customer engagement. Having achieved scale with consumers and merchants, our Payments Platform brings more value to consumers and merchants.
  • Marketplace: Our Marketplace Platform connects both online and offline merchants with consumers, enabling merchants to increase their sales and allowing consumers to purchase a broad selection of products and services from a wide range of merchants. Marketplace has three main propositions — m-Commerce, e-Commerce, and Kaspi Travel. m-Commerce brings a digital shopping experience to a merchant’s physical location, while consumers can use e-Commerce to shop anywhere, anytime and typically with free delivery. Kaspi Travel allows consumers to book domestic and international flights, domestic rail tickets, and domestic and international package holidays. All Marketplace services, except for Türkiye, are integrated with our Fintech and Payments Platforms. Other than in e-Grocery (which enables consumers to order groceries through the Kaspi.kz Super App with home delivery), part of e-Cars (which facilitates buying and selling used cars), and Türkiye Marketplace (which represents hybrid commerce model rooted in a unified “1P” and “3P” based catalogue), our Marketplace Platform is a “3P” model, enabling third-party merchants to sell their products directly to consumers.
  • Fintech: Our Fintech Platform provides consumers and merchants with BNPL, finance and deposit products. All our Fintech services can be accessed through our Super Apps, fully digitally, with users identified using Kaspi ID biometrics technology. We lend only in local currency and we fund our financing products mainly using deposit products, which are primarily local currency savings accounts. As we add more opportunities to transact with the Kaspi.kz Super App, we anticipate that consumers will keep more of their deposits with us.

On 29 January 2025, the Group acquired 65.41% share in “D-MARKET Electronic Services & Trading” (“Hepsiburada”) JSC with the consideration of approximately USD 1,127 million, followed by an acquisition of an additional 10.55% of the shares in Hepsiburada to 75.96% with the consideration of approximately USD 66 million.

On 27 March 2025, Kaspi.kz has signed a share purchase agreement with Rabobank Group, relating to the purchase of Rabobank’s Turkish subsidiary Rabobank A.Ş. The transaction is not material. Rabobank A.Ş. is a fully licensed bank in Türkiye which has neither borrowing or depositing clients nor a branch network. At the time the consolidated financial statements were authorised for issue, the agreement is subject to customary closing conditions and receipt of regulatory approval by certain Turkish government agencies.

On 10 September 2025, the Group has signed an agreement on sale of Portmone Group to an unrelated third party. The transaction does not represent a separate major line of business or geographical area, and is not presented as discontinued operations in accordance with IFRS 5 in these consolidated financial statements. No material gain/loss was recognised by the Group as net assets approximated the fair value of consideration received. Portmone Group was part of the Group’s Payments segment.

  • Basis of presentation

Foreign currency translation

The consolidated financial statements have been prepared in Kazakhstani tenge, which is also the functional currency of the Company.

The individual financial statements of each Group company are presented in the currency of the primary economic environment in which it operates (its functional currency). In preparing the financial statements of each individual entity, monetary assets and liabilities denominated in currencies other than the entity’s functional currency (foreign currencies) are translated at the appropriate spot rates or exchange rates prevailing at the reporting date. Transactions in foreign currencies are initially recorded at their spot rates at the date of the transaction.

With the exception of the Group’s Turkish lira operations, which is subject to hyperinflationary accounting, as explained in the accounting policies below, non-monetary items that are measured in terms of historical cost in a foreign currency are translated using the exchange rates at the dates of the initial transactions. Non-monetary items measured at fair value in a foreign currency are translated using the exchange rates at the date when the fair value is determined.

The individual financial statements of each Group company whose functional currency is the currency of a hyperinflationary economy are adjusted for inflation and then translated into Kazakhstani tenge using the reporting date exchange rate.

Goodwill and fair value adjustments arising on the acquisition of a foreign operation are treated as assets and liabilities of the foreign operation and translated accordingly.

Rates of exchange

The exchange rates at the period-end used by the Group in the preparation of the consolidated financial statements are as follows:

2023 2024 2025
KZT/USD 454.56 525.11 505.53
KZT/EUR 502.24 546.74 593.44
KZT/TRY - - 11.80

Going concern

These consolidated financial statements have been prepared on the assumption that the Group is a going concern, as the Group has the resources to continue in operation for at least the next twelve months. In making this assessment, management has considered a wide range of information in relation to present and future economic conditions, including projections of cash flows, profit and capital resources.

  • Material accounting policies

Basis of accounting

These consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with IFRS Accounting Standards as issued by the IASB.

The Company and its subsidiaries maintain their accounting records in accordance with IFRS Accounting Standards as issued by the IASB. The consolidated financial statements have been prepared on the historical cost basis, except for the revaluation of certain properties and financial instruments that are measured at revalued amounts or fair values at the end of each reporting period, as explained in the accounting policies below, and for the application of IAS 29 “Financial Reporting in Hyperinflationary Economies” (“IAS 29”) for the Group’s subsidiaries reporting in Turkish lira, as explained in the accounting policies below. The Group presents its statements of financial position in order of liquidity.

Offsetting

Financial assets and financial liabilities are offset and the net amount reported in the Consolidated Statements of Financial Position only when there is a legally enforceable right to offset the recognized amounts and there is an intention to settle on a net basis, or to realize the assets and settle the liability simultaneously. Income and expense are not offset in the Consolidated Statements of Profit or Loss unless required or permitted by any accounting standards or interpretations, and as specifically disclosed in the accounting policies of the Group.

The principal accounting policies adopted are set out below.

Basis of consolidation

The consolidated financial statements incorporate the financial statements of the Company and entities controlled by the Company (its subsidiaries). Control is achieved when the Company has power over the investee; is exposed, or has rights, to variable returns from its involvement with the investee; and has the ability to use its power to affect its returns.

The Company reassesses whether or not it controls an investee if facts and circumstances indicate that there are changes to one or more of the three elements of control listed above.

When the Company has less than a majority of the voting rights of an investee, it has power over the investee when the voting rights are sufficient to give it the practical ability to direct the relevant activities of the investee unilaterally. The Company considers all relevant facts and circumstances in assessing whether or not the Company’s voting rights in an investee are sufficient to give it power. Consolidation of a subsidiary begins when the Company obtains control over the subsidiary and ceases when the Company loses control of the subsidiary.

(in millions of KZT)

Non-controlling interests

Non-controlling interests represent the portion of profit or loss and net assets of subsidiaries not owned, directly or indirectly, by the Company. Non-controlling interests may initially be measured at fair value or at the non-controlling interests’ proportionate share of the fair value of the acquiree’s identifiable net assets. The choice of measurement is made on an acquisition-by-acquisition basis. Non-controlling interests are presented separately in the Consolidated Statements of Profit or Loss and within equity in the Consolidated Statements of Financial Position, separately from those attributable to the shareholders of the Company.

Hyperinflationary economy

The economy of Türkiye was designated as hyperinflationary from 30 June 2022. The Group has applied IAS 29 to its Turkish operations whose functional currencies are Turkish Lira from 29 January 2025. In applying IAS 29, the Turkish lira results and non-monetary asset and liability balances for relevant financial years have been revalued to their present value equivalent local currency amounts at the reporting date, based on the consumer price indexes issued by the Statistical Institute of Türkiye. Comparative periods are not restated per IAS 21 “The Effects of Changes in Foreign Exchange rates”. Türkiye’s annual

inflation rate for the year ended 31 December 2025 was 30.89%.

For the Group’s operations in Türkiye:

− The gain or loss on the revaluation of net monetary assets resulting from IAS 29 application is recognized in the Consolidated Statements of Profit or Loss within Other gains/(losses);

− The Group presents the gain or loss on cash and cash equivalents as monetary items together with the effect of inflation on operating, investing and financing cash flows as one number in the Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows;

− The Group has presented the equity revaluation effects and the impact of currency movements within Consolidated Statement of Other Comprehensive Income as such

amounts are judged to meet the definition of ‘exchange differences’.

Cash and cash equivalents

Cash and cash equivalents include cash on hand, cash balances with NBRK, reverse repurchase agreements and unrestricted balances on correspondent accounts and deposits with other banks with original maturities within three months and are free from contractual encumbrances. Cash and cash equivalents are measured at amortized cost.

Mandatory cash balances with NBRK

Mandatory cash balances with NBRK represent funds in correspondent accounts with the NBRK and cash which are not available to finance the Group’s day to day operations and, hence, are not considered as part of cash and cash equivalents for the purpose of the Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows.

Due from banks

In the normal course of business, the Group maintains advances and deposits for various periods of time with other banks. Due from banks initially are recognized at fair value. Due from banks are subsequently measured at amortized cost using the effective interest method, and are carried net of allowance for impairment losses.

Property, equipment

Property, equipment and intangible assets, except land and buildings, are carried at historical cost less accumulated depreciation, with the exception of land which is not depreciated and any recognized impairment loss, if any. Depreciation on assets under construction and those not placed in service commences from the date the assets are ready for their intended use.

Depreciation of property, equipment and amortization of intangible assets is charged on the carrying value of property, equipment and intangible assets and is designed to write off assets over their useful economic lives. Depreciation has been calculated on a straight-line basis at 2% per annum for buildings and construction and 7%-50% for furniture and computers and intangible assets.

Leasehold improvements are amortized over the shorter of the life of the related leased asset or the lease term. Expenses related to repairs and renewals are charged when incurred and included in cost of goods and services in the Consolidated Statements of Profit or Loss, unless they qualify for capitalization.

Buildings and constructions held for use in the supply of services, or for administrative purposes, are stated in the Consolidated Statements of Financial Position at their revalued amounts, being the fair value at the date of revaluation determined on the basis of market data by qualified independent appraisers, less any subsequent accumulated depreciation and subsequent accumulated impairment losses. Revaluations are performed with sufficient regularity such that the carrying amounts do not differ materially from those that would be determined using fair values at the end of the reporting period.

An item of property, plant and equipment is derecognized upon disposal or when no future economic benefits are expected to arise from the continued use of the asset. The gain or loss arising on the disposal or derecognition of an asset is determined as the difference between the sales proceeds and the carrying amount of the asset and is recognized in profit or loss.

Goodwill

Goodwill represents the excess of the consideration transferred over the fair value of the net assets acquired in a business combination. Goodwill derived is based on a reasonable estimation of excess earning power expected from future business development. If the aggregate of the consideration transferred is lower than the fair value of the net assets of the subsidiary acquired, the difference is recognized as a gain from bargain purchase in the Consolidated Statements of Profit or Loss within Other gains/(losses).

Joint Stock Company Kaspi.kz

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (Continued)

For the Years Ended 31 December 2023, 2024, and 2025

(in millions of KZT)

Goodwill is not amortized but is tested for impairment at least annually at the reporting period or more frequently when an event occurs or circumstances change that indicate the carrying value may not be recoverable. An impairment loss recognized for goodwill is not reversed in a subsequent period. For the purpose of impairment testing, goodwill is allocated to each of the Group’s cash-generating units expected to benefit from the synergies of the combination.

On disposal of a subsidiary or the relevant cash-generating unit, the attributable amount of goodwill is included in the determination of the profit or loss on disposal.

Intangible assets (trademarks, brands)

Intangible assets, such as patents, trademarks, customer bases and brands are reported at cost less accumulated amortization (where they have finite useful lives) and accumulated impairment losses.

Intangible assets with finite useful lives are amortized on a straight-line basis over their estimated useful lives at a 7%-33.3% per annum. The estimated useful life and amortization method are reviewed as at each reporting date, with the effect of any changes in estimate being accounted for on a prospective basis.

Intangible assets with indefinite useful lives are not amortized. The Group performs an analysis of product life cycle and studies market trends to provide evidence that the product will generate net cash inflows for the Group for an indefinite period. Each period, the useful lives of such assets are reviewed to determine whether events and circumstances continue to support an indefinite useful life assessment for the asset. Such assets are tested for impairment at least annually and whenever there is an indication at the end of a reporting period that the asset may be impaired.

Capitalization of internally-generated intangible assets

An internally-generated intangible asset arising from development is recognised if, and only if, all of the following conditions have been demonstrated:

  • The technical feasibility of completing the intangible asset so that it will be available for use or sale;
  • The intention to complete the intangible asset and use or sell it;
  • The ability to use or sell the intangible asset;
  • How the intangible asset will generate probable future economic benefits;
  • The availability of adequate technical, financial and other resources to complete the development and to use or sell the intangible asset;
  • The ability to measure reliably the expenditure attributable to the intangible asset during its development.

The amount initially recognised for internally-generated intangible assets is the sum of the expenditure incurred from the date when the intangible asset first meets the recognition criteria listed above. Where no internally-generated intangible asset can be recognised, development expenditure is recognised in profit or loss in the period in which it is incurred.

Inventory

Inventories, comprising of goods, are stated at the lower of cost and net realisable value. Cost comprises direct materials and, where applicable, direct labour costs and those overheads that have been incurred in bringing the inventories to their present location and condition. Cost is calculated using the weighted average cost method. Net realisable value represents the estimated selling price less all estimated costs of completion and estimated costs necessary to make the sale.

Impairment of non-financial assets

At the end of each reporting period, the Group reviews the carrying amounts of its tangible and intangible assets to determine whether there is any indication that those assets have suffered an impairment loss. If any such indication exists, the recoverable amount of the asset is estimated in order to determine the extent of the impairment loss (if any). Where it is not possible to estimate the recoverable amount of an individual asset, the Group estimates the recoverable amount of the cash-generating unit to which the asset belongs. Where a reasonable and consistent basis of allocation can be identified, corporate assets are also allocated to individual cash-generating units, or otherwise they are allocated to the smallest group of cash-generating units for which a reasonable and consistent allocation basis can be identified.

Taxation

Income tax expense represents the sum of the tax currently payable and deferred tax.

Current tax

The tax currently payable is based on taxable profit for the year. Taxable profit differs from net income before tax as reported in the Consolidated Statements of Profit or Loss because it excludes items of income or expense that are taxable or deductible in other years and it further excludes items that are never taxable or deductible. The Group’s liability for current tax is calculated using tax rates that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the end of the reporting period.

Deferred tax

Deferred tax is recognized on temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities in the Consolidated Statements of Financial Position and the corresponding tax bases. Deferred tax liabilities are generally recognized for all taxable temporary differences and deferred tax assets are generally recognized for all deductible temporary differences to the extent that it is probable that taxable profits will be available against which those deductible temporary differences can be utilized. Such deferred tax assets and liabilities are not recognized if the temporary difference arises from the initial recognition of other assets and liabilities in a transaction that affects neither the taxable profit nor net income before tax.

Joint Stock Company Kaspi.kz

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (Continued)

For the Years Ended 31 December 2023, 2024, and 2025

(in millions of KZT)

Deferred tax liabilities are recognized for taxable temporary differences associated with investments in subsidiaries, except where the Group is able to control the reversal of the temporary difference and it is probable that the temporary difference will not reverse in the foreseeable future. Deferred tax assets arising from deductible temporary differences associated with such investments and interests are only recognized to the extent that it is probable that there will be sufficient taxable profits against which to utilize the benefits of the temporary differences and they are expected to reverse in the foreseeable future.

The carrying amount of deferred tax assets is reviewed at each reporting date and reduced to the extent that it is no longer probable that sufficient taxable profits will be available to allow all or part of the asset to be recovered.

Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured at the tax rates that are expected to apply in the period in which the liability is settled or the asset is realized, based on tax rates (and tax laws) that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the end of the reporting period. The measurement of deferred tax liabilities and assets reflects the tax consequences that would follow from the manner in which the Group expects, at the end of the reporting period, to recover or settle the carrying amount of its assets and liabilities.

Deferred income tax assets and deferred income tax liabilities are offset and reported net on the Consolidated Statements of Financial Position if:

• The Group has a legally enforceable right to set off current income tax assets against current income tax liabilities; and

• Deferred income tax assets and the deferred income tax liabilities relate to income taxes levied by the same taxation authority on the same taxable entity.

Current and deferred tax are recognized in profit or loss, except when they relate to items that are recognized in other comprehensive income or directly in equity, in which case, the current and deferred tax are also recognized in other comprehensive income or directly in equity, respectively.

Provision for Uncertain Tax Positions

The Group records a provision for uncertain tax positions if it is probable that the Group will have to make a payment to tax authorities upon their examination of a tax position. This provision is measured at the Group’s best estimate of the amount expected to be paid. Provisions are reversed to income in provision for (recovery of) income taxes in the period in which management determines they are no longer required or as determined by statute.

Taxes Other than Taxes on Income

The Republic of Kazakhstan and Türkiye also have various other taxes that are not taxes on income, which are assessed on the Group’s activities. These taxes are included as a component of cost of goods and services or general & administrative expenses in the Consolidated Statements of Profit or Loss.

(in millions of KZT)

Provisions

Provisions are recognized when the Group has a present legal or constructive obligation as a result of past events, it is probable that the Group will be required to settle the obligation and a reliable estimate can be made of the obligation.

The amount recognized as a provision is the best estimate of the consideration required to settle the present obligation at the end of the reporting period, taking into account the risks and uncertainties surrounding the obligation. When a provision is measured using the cash flows estimated to settle the present obligation, its carrying amount is the present value of those cash flows (where the effect of the time value of money is material).

When some or all of the economic benefits required to settle a provision are expected to be recovered from a third party, a receivable is recognized as an asset if it is virtually certain that reimbursement will be received and the amount of the receivable can be measured reliably. The expense relating to a provision is presented in the Consolidated Statements of Profit or Loss net of any reimbursement.

Share-based compensation

Equity-settled share-based payments (such as “share options”) are measured at the fair value of the equity instruments at the grant date. The fair value excludes the effect of non-market-based vesting conditions.

The fair value determined at the grant date of the equity-settled share-based payments is expensed on a straight-line basis over the vesting period, based on the Group’s estimate of the number of equity instruments that will eventually vest. At each reporting date, the Group revises its estimate of the number of equity instruments expected to vest as a result of the effect of non-market-based vesting conditions. The impact of the revision of the original estimates, if any, is recognized in profit or loss such that the cumulative expense reflects the revised estimate, with a corresponding adjustment to reserves. Options are forfeited if the employee leaves the Group before the options vest and no additional expense will be recognised.

The Group applies the graded vesting method on granted share options that vest in instalments over the vesting period. Each installment is separately measured and attributed to expense over the vesting period.

Contingencies

Contingent liabilities are not recognized in the consolidated statements of the financial position but are disclosed unless the possibility of any outflow in settlement is remote. A contingent asset is not recognized in the Consolidated Statements of Financial Position but disclosed when an inflow of economic benefits is probable.

Financial instruments

The Group recognizes financial assets and liabilities on its Consolidated Statements of Financial Position when it becomes a party to the contractual obligation of the instrument. Regular way purchases and sales of financial assets and liabilities are recognized using settlement date accounting.

Joint Stock Company Kaspi.kz

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (Continued)

For the Years Ended 31 December 2023, 2024, and 2025

(in millions of KZT)

Financial assets and financial liabilities are initially measured at fair value. Transaction costs that are directly attributable to the acquisition or issue of financial assets and financial liabilities (other than financial assets and financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss) are added to or deducted from the fair value of the financial assets or financial liabilities, as appropriate, on initial recognition. Transaction costs directly attributable to the acquisition of financial assets or financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss are recognized immediately in profit or loss.

Financial assets

All recognized financial assets that are within the scope of IFRS 9 are required to be measured subsequently at amortized cost or fair value on the basis of the entity’s business model for managing the financial assets and the contractual cash flow characteristics of the financial assets.

Under IFRS 9, all debt financial assets that do not meet a “solely payment of principal and interest” (“SPPI”) criterion, are classified at initial recognition as fair value through profit or loss (“FVTPL”). Under this criterion, debt instruments that do not correspond to a “basic lending arrangement”, are measured at FVTPL. For debt financial assets that meet the SPPI criterion, classification at initial recognition is determined based on the business model under which these instruments are managed:

  • Financial assets, other than equity investments, that are managed on a “hold to collect” basis are measured at amortized cost;
  • Financial assets, other than equity investments, that are managed on a “hold to collect and for sale” basis are measured at fair value through other comprehensive income (“FVTOCI”);
  • Financial assets, including equity investments, that are managed on another basis, including trading financial assets, will be measured at FVTPL.

Equity financial assets are required to be classified at initial recognition as FVTPL unless an irrevocable designation is made to classify an instrument as FVTOCI. For equity investments classified as FVTOCI, all realised and unrealised gains and losses, except for dividend income, are recognized in other comprehensive income with no subsequent reclassification to profit or loss.

Financial assets, other than equity investments, that are measured subsequently at amortized cost or at FVTOCI are subject to impairment.

After initial measurement, amortized cost financial assets are measured using the effective interest rate method, less any impairment losses. The fair value of FVTPL and FVTOCI financial assets is determined under IFRS 13 “Fair Value Measurement” (“IFRS 13”). The fair value gains or losses for FVTPL are recognized in the statements of profit or loss and for FVTOCI are recognized in the other comprehensive income, until these instruments are disposed.

Equity investments that do not have a quoted market price in an active market and whose fair value cannot be reliably measured are measured at cost less any identified impairment losses at the end of each reporting period. These instruments are accounted for at fair value under IFRS 9. The Group has designated these investments in equity instruments at FVTOCI as the Group plans to hold them in the long term for strategic reasons.

The Group enters into a variety of derivative financial instruments to manage its exposure to interest rate and foreign exchange rate risk, including foreign exchange forward contracts, interest rate swaps and cross currency swaps. All derivative financial instruments are classified as held for trading and measured at fair value through profit or loss and are not designated for hedge accounting.

Expected credit loss (“ECL”) measurement – definitions

ECL is a probability-weighted measurement of the present value of future cash shortfalls (i.e., the weighted average of credit losses, with the respective risks of default occurring in a given time period used as weights). An ECL measurement is unbiased and should be determined by evaluating a range of possible outcomes.

An ECL measurement of allowance for impairment losses is based on four components used by the Group:

  • Exposure at Default (“EAD”) – an estimate of exposure at a future default date, taking into account expected changes in exposure after the reporting date, including repayments of principal and interest, and expected drawdowns on committed facilities.
  • Probability of Default (“PD”) – an estimate of the likelihood of default to occur over a given time period.
  • Loss Given Default (“LGD”) – an estimate of a loss arising on default. It is based on the difference between contractual cash flows due and those that the lender would expect to receive, including from any collateral. It usually expressed as a percentage of EAD.
  • Discount Rate – a tool to discount an expected loss from the present value at the reporting date. The discount rate represents the effective interest rate (“EIR”) for the financial instrument or an approximation thereof.

Default and credit-impaired assets

The financial asset is considered to be in default, or credit impaired, when it meets one or more of the following criteria:

For loans to customers:

  • The borrower is more than 90 days past due on its contractual payments;
  • The bank has sold part of borrower’s debt with losses;
  • The loan had experienced a forced restructuring due to a deterioration in borrower creditworthiness;
  • The borrower is deceased (retail loans);
  • The borrower’s debt was partially or fully written off due to a deterioration in the borrower’s financial condition.

For other financial assets, debt securities and due from banks:

  • The counterparty or issuer rated at C or less per global rating agencies;
  • The counterparty or issuer is more than 30 days past due;
  • The counterparty or issuer has significant deterioration of operating results.

Significant increase in credit risk (“SICR”)

The SICR assessment is performed on an individual basis and on a portfolio basis. SICR for individually significant loans is assessed on an individual basis by monitoring the triggers stated below. The criteria used to identify a SICR are monitored and reviewed periodically for appropriateness by the Group’s risk department.

The Group considers a financial instrument to have experienced a SICR when one or more of the following quantitative, qualitative or subsidiary criteria have been met:

For loans to customers:

  • Increase in lifetime probability of default over defined thresholds;
  • The number of days past due is more than 30 but less than 90;
  • External factors affect the solvency of individual groups of individuals (such as natural disasters, closure of the city-forming enterprise in the region, etc.).

For other financial assets, debt securities and due from banks:

  • Deterioration of the counterparty’s or issuer’s rating by 4 notches;
  • Deterioration of the counterparty’s or issuer’s rating up to CCC+ as per global rating agencies;
  • Deterioration of operating results of the counterparty or issuer.

ECL measurement – description of estimation techniques

General principle

For financial assets that are not purchased or originated credit impaired (“POCI”) assets, ECLs are generally measured based on the risk of default over one of two different time periods, depending on whether the borrower’s credit risk has increased significantly in a three-stage model for ECL measurement:

Stage 1: a group of financial instruments for which no significant increase in the credit risk level has been recorded since initial recognition and provisions for this group are created as 12-month ECL, and interest income is calculated based on the gross carrying amount of the financial asset.

Stage 2: a group of financial instruments for which a significant increase in the credit risk level has been recorded since the initial recognition and provisions for which equal ECL for the instrument’s lifetime, and interest income is calculated based on the gross carrying amount of the financial asset.

Stage 3: a group of credit-impaired financial instruments, for which provisions equal the ECL amount for the instrument’s lifetime, and interest income is accrued based on the carrying amount of the asset, net of the loss allowance.

ECL for POCI financial assets is always measured on a lifetime basis (Stage 3), and at the reporting date, the Group only recognizes the cumulative changes in lifetime expected credit losses since initial recognition.

The Group performs individual assessments for credit-impaired loans.

The Group performs assessments on a portfolio basis for retail loans and loans issued to small and medium entities (“SMEs”). This approach incorporates aggregating the portfolio into homogeneous segments based on borrower-specific information, such as delinquency, historical data on losses and forward-looking macroeconomic information.

Macroeconomic overlay and macroeconomic scenarios

The Group incorporates forward looking information in its impairment calculations via macroeconomic models, which leads to a direct adjustment of default probabilities. To develop a future realization of these macroeconomic parameters, the Group uses three scenarios - a base scenario, an optimistic scenario and a pessimistic scenario. The latter two scenarios are assigned weights of 18% and 29% (31 December 2024: 18% and 29%). The base scenario is assigned a weights of 53% (31 December 2024: 53%). For each scenario a set of values for the relevant macroeconomic variables is used as an input for the macroeconomic model, which subsequently is applied to adjust the relevant input parameter.

  • Change of base rate KZT.

ECL measurement – description of estimation techniques

Principles of individual assessment – ECL assessments on an individual basis are done by weighting the estimates of credit losses for different possible outcomes against the probabilities of each outcome. The Group defines three possible outcomes for each loan.

Principles of portfolio assessments – to assess the staging of exposure and to measure a loss allowance on a collective basis, the Group combines its exposures into segments on the basis of shared credit risk characteristics, so that exposure to risk within a group are homogeneous.

Examples of shared characteristics include product type and the amount of loan.

Two types of PDs are used to calculate ECLs: 12-month and lifetime PD:

  • 12-month PDs – the estimated probability of a default occurring within the next 12 months (or over the remaining life of a financial instrument if less than 12 months). This parameter is used to calculate 12-month ECLs. An assessment of a 12-month PD is based on the latest available historical default data and adjusted for forward-looking information;
  • Lifetime PDs – the estimated probability of a default occurring over the remaining life of a financial instrument. This parameter is used to calculate lifetime ECLs. An assessment of a lifetime PD is based on the latest available historical default data and adjusted for forward looking information.

(in millions of KZT)

To calculate lifetime PD, the Group uses different statistical approaches depending on the segment and product type, such as the extrapolation of 12-month PDs based on migration matrixes, developing lifetime PD curves based on the historical default data, and hazard rate approach.

LGD represents the Group’s expectation of the extent of loss on a defaulted exposure and assessed on a collective basis based on the latest available recovery statistics.

For unsecured loans, the Group calculates LGD based on historical NPL collection statistics. For loans secured by cars, real estate, cash and liquid securities, the Group calculates LGD based on specific collateral characteristics, such as projected collateral values and historical sales discounts.

Modification of loans to customers

The Group modifies loans to customers in temporary financial difficulty in order to allow a borrower to recover solvency. Modification of loans is provided in the form of short-term revision of loan terms and may include the reduction of interest rate, reduction of monthly payment amount, extension of the loan term, or a combination of these measures that do not lead to derecognition of the financial asset. After the recovery period, pre-modification contractual terms are to be applied. The recovery period is agreed in the modification terms, but in most cases is set for 6 months.

Modification of loan is provided only once and to the borrowers with overdue less than 90 days on a modification date, where sufficient grounds exist to support its recoverability.

During the recovery period, such modified loans are classified to Stage 3, with corresponding increase in loss allowance. After the recovery period, such modified loans are allocated to the relevant impairment category, based on its days past due and impairment methodology.

Restructuring of loans to customers

The Group restructures loans of defaulted borrowers by providing an interest free extended schedule. The new loan schedule has an annuity structure with no grace period. Loans that were restructured after derecognition are deemed to be POCI (purchased or originated credit impaired). The difference recognized as a derecognition gain or loss, to the extent that an impairment loss has not already been recorded. The Group continues to recognize restructured impaired loans at Stage 3 for at least 1 year, in case if loan was not derecognized otherwise and classified as POCI.

Derecognition of financial assets

The Group derecognizes a financial asset only when the contractual rights to the cash flows from the asset expire, or when it transfers the financial asset and substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership of the asset to another entity. On derecognition of a financial asset in its entirety, the difference between the asset’s carrying amount and the sum of the consideration received and the cumulative gain or loss that had been recognized in other comprehensive income and accumulated in equity is recognized in profit or loss as provision expense. On derecognition of a financial asset other than in its entirety, the Group allocates the previous carrying amount of the financial asset between the part it continues to recognize under continuing involvement, and the part it no longer recognizes on the basis of the relative fair values of those parts on the date of the transfer.

Financial liabilities

Financial liabilities, such as due to banks, customer accounts, debt securities issued, subordinated debt, trade liabilities and other financial liabilities are initially recognized at fair value. Subsequently amounts due are stated at amortized cost and any difference between carrying and redemption value is recognized in the Consolidated Statements of Profit or Loss over the period of the borrowings using the effective interest method as a component of interest expense.

Derecognition of financial liabilities

The Group derecognizes financial liabilities when, and only when, the Group’s obligations are discharged, cancelled, or expired. Where an existing financial liability is replaced by another from the same counterparty on substantially different terms, or the terms of an existing liability are substantially modified, such an exchange or modification is treated as a de-recognition of the original liability and the recognition of a new liability, and the difference between the carrying amount of the financial liability derecognized and the consideration paid is recognized in the Consolidated Statements of Profit or Loss.

Recognition of interest income and expense

Financial assets include products such as consumer loans, merchant financing, BNPL and car financing, securities and deposits placed with banks. Interest income from a financial asset is recognized when it is probable that the economic benefits will flow to the Group and the amount of income can be measured reliably.

Interest income and expense are recognized on an accrual basis using the effective interest method. The effective interest method is a method of calculating the amortized cost of a financial asset or a financial liability (or group of financial assets or financial liabilities) and of allocating the interest income or interest expense over the relevant period.

The effective interest rate is the rate that exactly discounts estimated future cash payments or receipts (including all fees paid or received that form an integral part of the effective interest rate, transaction costs and other premiums or discounts) through the expected life of the financial instrument or, (where appropriate) a shorter period to the gross carrying amount.

Interest earned on assets at fair value is classified within interest income.

All other fees and commissions are accounted for in accordance with IFRS 15.

Revenue recognition

Net fee revenue of the Group is comprised of fee revenue from each of our segments, which is accounted for in accordance with IFRS 15, net of rewards. IFRS 15 requires the application of a “five steps” process to determine the appropriate manner and timing for revenue recognition. The following accounting policies describe each of these steps for our material sources of revenue.

Payments fee revenue includes transaction revenue (from both merchants and retail customers) and membership revenue.

  • Transaction revenue:

  • Transaction revenue from merchants, as our customers, is generated pursuant to for payments processing service agreements. The Group’s performance obligation is to process payments made to or by merchants and the transaction price is determined as a percentage of the value of goods or services being sold by merchants and/or otherwise transacted by consumers and therefore processed through Kaspi.kz. The incentives in form of bonus (rewards) are accounted as variable consideration payable and decrease the transaction price. Allocation of the transaction price is based on the relative standalone selling prices and transactions underlying each performance obligation. Revenue is recognized at point in time when a transaction is processed. The Group has determined that it is a principal to payments processing services for merchants that use the Kaspi Payments platform, as it is primarily responsible for fulfilling the contractual terms because it is primarily responsible for the quality of the payment processing services and directly deals with the retail customer and merchant. In addition, the Group has discretion in establishing the price that it charges to merchants for the specified services. Therefore, the Group recognizes revenue of the gross amount of agreed consideration to which it expects to be entitled in exchange for the services transferred. Transaction fees from merchants are earned for processing payment services such as bill payments for regular household needs, QR code payments for purchases both online and in-store, B2B (business to business) and processing of our debit cards and third-party issued cards through the Kaspi Payments platform.

  • Transaction revenue from retail customers, as our customers, is generated pursuant to debit payment card service agreements. The Group’s performance obligation is to process payments initiated by retail customers. The transaction price is determined as a percentage of the payment amount and is allocated to each performance obligation (transaction processing) on a standalone basis. Revenue is recognized at point in time when a transaction is processed. The Group is the principal for payment processing services relating to retail customers’ (debit card holders) use of the Kaspi Payments platform. As a result, revenue is recognized on a gross basis, as the Group is primarily responsible for fulfilling the payment processing on its own payments platform and has discretion in establishing the selling price of the payment processing service to the retail customer, irrespective of the costs the Group incur in instances where the Group may utilize other payment intermediaries. Transaction fees from customers using Kaspi Payments platform are earned for processing payment services such as debit card transactions and P2P payments to other banks’ cards. When using third-party payments platforms or networks (e.g., Visa/Mastercard), the Group is an agent for the payment processing services to retail customers (debit card holders) and, therefore, revenue is recognized on a net basis, as the Group is not primarily responsible for fulfilling the payment processing on third parties’ payments platforms/networks and has no discretion in establishing the selling price of the payment processing service to the retail customer on third party payment platforms/networks. Transaction fees from customers using third-party payments platform are earned for processing debit card transactions.

  • Membership revenue is generated from annual and monthly fees earned during the period. Membership fee revenue is deferred and recognized over the terms of the applicable memberships on a straight-line basis. Membership fees are paid on a monthly basis or paid up front at the beginning of the applicable membership period by retail customers and merchants for accessing various Kaspi.kz services. Memberships are cancellable and non-refundable.

Marketplace fee revenue includes seller fees paid by merchants from our “3P” marketplace business, including Hepsiburada marketplace, Kaspi Travel, advertising and delivery transactions originated during both online and in store shopping. It also includes revenue from Kolesa Group, largest car and real estate classifieds platform in Kazakhstan, Autoelon.uz — car marketplace and member of the Kolesa Group in Uzbekistan and Digital Classifieds LLC mobile classified app in Azerbaijan.

  • “3P” Marketplace business fee revenue is generated through merchants, our customer in this case, selling their products and services directly to retail consumers through Kaspi.kz Super App and Hepsiburada marketplace pursuant to contracts with the Group. The facilitation of transfer of products and services through the Kaspi.kz Super App and Hepsiburada marketplace from the merchant to the retail consumer is considered a performance obligation of the Group and the transaction price is generally determined as a percentage of the value of goods or services being sold by the merchant to the retail consumer. The incentives in form of bonus (rewards) are accounted as variable consideration payable and decrease the transaction price. Transaction price for delivery revenue is determined in accordance with the applicable delivery tariffs. Allocation of the transaction price is based on the relative standalone selling price of the transaction service underlying each performance obligation. The Group recognizes revenue from the merchant when the retail customer obtains control over the merchant’s products or services. The Group is an agent in the transaction between a merchant and a retail consumer, as the Group does not obtain control over the specified good or service before it is transferred to the retail consumer, does not have discretion in establishing the prices for the specified good or service and is not primarily responsible for fulfilling the obligation to provide the specified good or service. Revenue is recognized on a net basis at point in time when the retail customer obtains control over the merchant’s products or services. The Group is a principal for delivery revenue, as it is primarily responsible for fulfilling the performance obligations and has discretion in establishing the tariffs.

Fintech fee revenue:

  • Banking service fees are the main part of Fintech fee revenue and are recognized under banking service agreements with retail customers, our customers in this case. The Group’s performance obligations under these agreements are to provide additional cancellable banking services, that fall beyond standard services. These services include: access to a wide network of Kaspi ATMs with cash withdrawals free of charge with higher limits than general free cash withdrawal limits; 24-hour service line support for borrowers, transfers of loan amounts between Kaspi customers’ accounts and ability to use these funds for bill payments, transfers and other transactions via mobile application; SMS and mobile push notification/reminder services related to loans; issuance of loan statements/certificates free of charge via mobile application, and other services. The transaction price is determined as a fixed, monthly fee for access to these services and is allocated on a single performance obligation basis over the period of the banking service agreements. The Group is a principal under these agreements, as it is primarily responsible for fulfilling the performance obligations and has discretion in establishing the prices for services. As a result, the revenue is recognized on a gross basis over the period in which the services are provided, typically monthly.

Retail revenue includes revenue from the sale of consumer goods on Hepsiburada marketplace, revenue from e-Grocery transactions for the sale of products and related delivery fees, and revenue from e-cars transactions for the sale of cars. Retail revenue is generated by selling products directly to buyers via Kaspi.kz Super App and Hepsiburada marketplace, and by selling cars via Kolesa App. Revenue is initially measured at the amount of consideration to which the entity expect to be entitled for goods purchased and is recognized at a point in time upon delivery when control of the goods has transferred to the customer, reduced by the estimates for return allowances, promotional discounts and rebates. The Group is the principal in a transaction with an end consumer and earns revenue on a gross basis.

Rewards are designed to change customer behavior and promote daily use of our Super App and ensure growth in customer engagement across all our platforms. Retail customers of the Group earn and accumulate bonuses (rewards) for purchases/transactions made with merchants that are also customers of the Group. Retail customers can then use bonuses earned for future purchases/transactions. Liabilities to pay bonuses are accrued on a transactional basis as a percentage from the transaction price of products sold or services provided and are accounted in Other liabilities (Note 22). Kaspi rewards do not have an expiration and are accounted as 1 bonus = 1 KZT, Hepsiburada rewards have variable expiration and are accounted 1 bonus = 1 TRY. Bonuses are accounted as variable consideration paid to customers and do not give rise to a future material right. In accordance with IFRS 15 “Revenue from contracts with customers” these bonuses are presented as a deduction from revenue. For segment reporting purposes we continue to account for rewards as selling and marketing expenses and allocate accordingly.

Share capital and share premium

Contributions to share capital are recognized at cost. Non-cash contributions are not included into the share capital until realized in cash.

Costs directly attributable to the issue of new shares, other than on a business combination, are deducted from equity net of any related income taxes.

Treasury shares repurchased from shareholders are recognized at cost of acquisition. When such repurchased treasury shares are further sold, any difference between their selling price and the cost of acquisition is charged to share capital (if positive) or to retained earnings (if negative). Where repurchased treasury shares are retired, the carrying value thereof is reduced by the amount paid by the Group at repurchase thereof, with the share capital respectively reduced by the par value of such retired shares restated, where applicable, for inflation, and the resulting difference is charged to retained earnings.

Dividends on common shares are recognized in equity as a reduction in the period in which they are declared.

Equity reserves

The reserves recorded in equity (other comprehensive income) on the Group’s Consolidated Statements of Financial Position include revaluation reserve of financial assets and other reserves, which comprise changes in fair value of financial assets at FVTOCI and allowance for impairment losses for debt instruments measured at FVTOCI, and foreign currency translation reserve, which is used to record exchange differences arising from the translation of the net investment in foreign operation.

Retirement and other benefit obligations

In accordance with the requirements of the Republic of Kazakhstan and Türkiye in which the Group operates, certain percentages of pension payments are withheld from total disbursements to employee to be transferred to pension fund, such that a portion of salary expense is withheld from the employee and instead paid to a pension fund on behalf of the employee. This expense is charged to the Consolidated Statements of Profit or Loss in the period in which the related salaries are earned. Upon retirement, all retirement benefit payments are made by the pension fund. The Group does not have any pension arrangements separate from the pension system of the Republic of Kazakhstan. In addition, the Group has no post-retirement benefits or other significant compensated benefits requiring accrual.

Areas of significant management judgment and sources of estimation uncertainty

The preparation of the Group’s consolidated financial statements requires management to make estimates, judgments and assumptions about the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. The estimates and associated assumptions are based on historical experience and other factors that are considered to be relevant. Actual results may differ from these estimates.

The estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Revisions to accounting estimates are recognized in the period in which the estimate is revised if the revision affects only that period, or in the period of the revision and future periods if the revision affects both current and future periods.

Critical judgments in applying accounting policies

The critical judgments, apart from those involving estimations (see below), that the Group management has made in the process of applying the Group’s accounting policies and that have the most significant effect on the amounts recognized in the consolidated financial statements. Significant judgments have been made in the business model assessment, significant increase in credit risk, models and assumptions used which are discussed in Note 3 below.

Key sources of estimation uncertainty

The following are the key assumptions concerning the future, and other key sources of estimation uncertainty at the end of the reporting period, that have a significant risk of causing a material adjustment to the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities within the next financial year.

Assessment of significant increase of credit risk

As explained in Note 3, ECL are measured as an allowance equal to 12-month ECL for Stage 1 assets, or lifetime ECL assets for Stage 2 or Stage 3 assets. An asset moves to Stage 2 when its credit risk has increased significantly since initial recognition. IFRS 9 does not define what constitutes a significant increase in credit risk. In assessing whether the credit risk of an asset has significantly increased the Group takes into account qualitative and quantitative, reasonable and supportable, forward looking information.

Incorporation of forward looking information

When measuring ECL, the Group uses reasonable and supportable forward looking information, which is based on assumptions for the future movement of different economic drivers and how these drivers will affect credit risk. Refer to Note 30 for more details, including analysis of the sensitivity of the reported ECL to changes in estimated forward looking information.

Models and assumptions used

The Group uses various models and assumptions in measuring fair value of financial assets as well as in estimating ECL. Judgement is applied in identifying the most appropriate model for each type of asset, as well as for determining the assumptions used in these models, including assumptions that relate to key drivers of credit risk. See Note 30 for more details on ECL and Note 28 for more details on fair value measurement.

Fair value measurement and valuation process

In estimating the fair value of a financial asset or a liability, the Group uses market-observable data to the extent it is available and classifying such financial assets as Level 1 or Level 2 instruments. Where such inputs are not available, the Group uses valuation models to determine the fair value of its financial instruments with respective classification of such financial assets as Level 3 instruments. Refer to Note 28 for more details on fair value measurement.

For the Years Ended 31 December 2023, 2024, and 2025

(in millions of KZT)

The Group considers that the accounting estimate related to valuation of financial instruments where quoted markets prices are not available is a key source of estimation uncertainty because: (i) it is highly susceptible to change from period to period because it requires management to make assumptions about interest rates, volatility, exchange rates, the credit rating of the counterparty, valuation adjustments and specific feature of the transactions and (ii) the impact that recognizing a change in the valuations would have on the assets reported on its Consolidated Statements of Financial Position as well as its profit or loss could be material.

Had the management used different assumptions regarding the interest rates, volatility, exchange rates, the credit rating of the counterparty and valuation adjustments, a larger or smaller change in the valuation of financial instruments where quoted market prices are not available, would have resulted that could have had a material impact on the Group’s reported net income.

Adoption of new and revised Standards

The above standards and interpretations were reviewed by the Group's management and determined to not have a significant effect on these consolidated financial statements of the Group.

New and revised IFRS Accounting Standards as issued by the IASB in issue but not yet effective

At the date of authorization of these consolidated financial statements, the Group has not applied the following new and revised IFRS Accounting Standards as issued by the IASB that have been issued but are not yet effective:

Operating segments are identified based on how the Group manages the business on a day-to-day basis and the types of products and services provided. Operating segments are reported in a manner consistent with internal reports, which are reviewed and used by the management board (who are identified as Chief Operating Decision Makers, “CODM”). The operating performance measure of each operating segment is revenue and net income.

Costs and operating expenses that are deducted from revenue, include interest expenses and fees (2023: KZT (478,010) million; 2024: KZT (616,116) million; 2025: KZT (763,964) million) and provision expenses (2023: KZT (79,634) million; 2024: KZT (113,957) million; 2025: KZT (150,798) million), both attributable to Fintech Segment, and cost of goods and services (2023: KZT (106,360) million; 2024: KZT (239,383) million; 2025: KZT (1,106,954) million) attributable to Marketplace Segment.

Significant cash-generating unit

In performing annual impairment testing, the recoverable amount of Hepsiburada has been calculated based on its value in use, estimated as the present value of projected future cash flows. Projected cash flows include specific estimates for a period of five years.

The Gross merchandise value (“GMV”) growth rates used to estimate cash flows for the five years are based on past performance of Hepsiburada and on the Group’s strategic plan. Growth rate is determined in nominal terms to match nominal estimates of future cash flows.

The assumptions used to develop weighted average cost of capital (“WACC”) are benchmarked to externally available data. Discount rate is determined in nominal terms to match nominal estimates of future cash flows.

The estimated cash flows after year five are extrapolated using a longer-term growth rate (“LTGR”), which is determined as geometric mean of real GDP growth rate for Türkiye.

Key assumptions comprise:

2025
Average GMV growth 18.8%
WACC 19.7%
LTGR 3.5%

There are no reasonably possible changes in key assumptions that would cause the carrying amount of any CGU to exceed its recoverable amount, except for WACC, where an increase of 1%, with all other assumptions held constant, would cause the CGU’s recoverable amount to equal it’s carrying amount.

Share-based compensation expense

According to IFRS 2, this accelerates the recognition of compensation expenses resulting in a higher proportion of expenses being recognised in the early years of overall plan.

ADS Options

The fair value of ADS options at the date of grant is determined using the Black-Scholes model. The fair value determined at the grant date is expensed over the five year vesting period, based on the Group’s estimate of the number of ADS options that will eventually vest. Recipients of ADS options are entitled to receive dividends once ADS options vested and exercised.

The Group’s maximum exposure to credit loss under contingent liabilities and commitments to extend credit, in the event of non-performance by the other party where all counterclaims, collateral or security prove valueless, is represented by the contractual amounts of those instruments.

The Group uses the same credit policy in undertaking contingent commitments as it does for on-balance instruments.

As at 31 December 2024 and 2025, provision for losses on contingent liabilities were

KZT Nil and KZT Nil, respectively.

The Group’s contingent liabilities and credit commitments comprised the following:

2024 2025
Nominal amount Nominal amount
Commitments on loans and unused credit lines: Revocable loans 293,401 370,278
Guarantees issued and similar commitments - 326
Total contingent liabilities and credit commitments 293,401 370,604

Commitments on loans and unused credit lines represent the Group’s revocable commitments to extend loans within unused credit line limits. Those commitments where the borrower has to apply each time it wants to draw the credit facility from unused credit lines and the Group may approve or deny the extension of the credit facility based on the borrower’s financial performance, debt service and other credit risk characteristics are considered revocable. Those commitments where the Group is contractually obligated with no conditions to extend the loan are considered to be irrevocable.

Legal proceedings

From time to time and in the normal course of business, claims against the Group are received from customers and counterparties. The Group recognizes a provision for a material loss from its legal proceedings when payment of such loss is probable and the amount can be estimated reliably. As at 31 December 2024 and 2025, no provision for material losses on legal proceedings was recognized.

Pensions and retirement plans

Employees of the Group receive pension benefits from pension funds in accordance with the laws and regulations of the Republic of Kazakhstan.

Taxes

Due to the presence in Kazakhstani commercial legislation and tax legislation in particular, of provisions allowing more than one interpretation, and also due to the practice developed in a generally unstable environment by the tax authorities of making arbitrary judgment of business activities, if a particular treatment based on management’s judgment of the Group’s business activities is to be challenged by the tax authorities, the Group may be assessed additional taxes, penalties and interest. Such uncertainty may relate to valuation of financial instruments, loss and impairment provisions and market level for deals’ pricing. The Group believes that it has already made all tax payments, and therefore no allowance has been made in the consolidated financial statements. Tax years remain open to review by the tax authorities for five years.

Assets and liabilities for which fair value approximates carrying value

For financial assets and liabilities that have a short-term maturity (less than 3 months), it is assumed that the carrying amounts approximate to their fair value. This assumption is also applied to demand deposits and savings accounts without a maturity.

Due from banks

The estimated fair value of term due from banks is determined by discounting the contractual cash flows using interest rates currently offered for due from banks with similar terms.

Loans to customers

Loans to individual customers are made at fixed rates. The fair value of fixed rate loans has been estimated by reference to the market rates available at the reporting date for loans with similar maturity profile.

Due to banks

The estimated fair value of due to banks is determined by discounting the contractual cash flows using interest rates currently offered for due to banks with similar terms.

Customer accounts

The estimated fair value of term deposits is determined by discounting contractual cash flows using interest rates currently offered for deposits with similar terms. For current accounts which are non-interest bearing, the Group considers fair value to equal carrying value, which is equivalent to the amount payable on the balance sheet date.

Debt securities issued, subordinated debt

Debt securities issued and subordinated debt are valued using quoted prices.

Trade liabilities

Trade liabilities are short-term in nature, it is assumed that the carrying values approximate to their fair value.

  • Risk management policy

The Group permanently advances it’s risk management environment, to fit up-to-date challenges and risks the Group is exposed to. The Group is exposed to the following types of risks: credit risk, liquidity risk and market risk.

Credit risk

The Group is exposed to credit risk, which is the risk that a customer will be unable to pay amounts in full when due. The Group’s credit risk exposure arises primarily from our consumer finance business through the Fintech Platform. To manage credit risk during loan origination, the Group centralized all processes related to decision making, verification and accounting through it’s headquarters. The Group has developed an automated, centralized and big data-driven proprietary loan approval process that enables it to make instant credit decisions. The risk management division is responsible for maintaining credit risk assessment models and decision-making process. The quality of approved loans are monitored by risk management division on day-to-day basis with periodical validation of the models.

(in millions of KZT)

During the credit decision process, the Group uses proprietary risk algorithms and predictive credit risk assessment models for the evaluation of the risks of potential borrowers using statistical modelling based on (i) a wealth of proprietary internal data such as application, transactional, behavioral, shopping and payment history information, which is supplemented by (ii) external data such as data received from credit bureaus (First Credit Bureau LLP and State Credit Bureau JSC) and pension centre (the State Pension Payment Centre) with regard to each customer.

The additional proprietary data constantly accumulated around the Group’s customers’ activity that enables it to continuously deepen its credit decision process.

The risk management division, in terms of credit risk, consists of independent modelling, anti-fraud, monitoring and provisioning division.

Maximum Exposure

The Group’s maximum exposure to credit risk varies significantly and is dependent on both individual risks and general market economy risks. For financial assets recorded on statements of financial position, the maximum exposure equals to a carrying value of those assets prior to any offset or collateral. For financial guarantees and other contingent liabilities the maximum exposure to credit risk is the maximum amount the Group would have to pay if the guarantee was called on or in the case of commitments, if the loan amount was called on.

As at 31 December 2024 and 2025, the maximum exposure to credit risk after offset and collateral was equal to its carrying value of all financial assets except for loans to customers.

As at 31 December 2024 and 2025, the maximum exposure to credit risk after offset and collateral of loans to customers were KZT 5,086,464 million and KZT 6,281,705 million, respectively.

Collateral held as security and other credit enhancements

The Group holds collateral or other credit enhancements to mitigate credit risk associated with financial assets. The main types of collateral obtained are as follows:

  • For reverse repurchase transactions – securities;
  • For loans to customers that are secured – charges over real estate properties and vehicles.

Although, the Group uses collateral as credit enhancement to mitigate its exposure to credit risk, major part of its loan portfolio is represented by unsecured loans. Thus, as at 31 December 2024 and 2025, unsecured gross carrying amount of loans to customers were KZT 5,359,101 million and KZT 6,606,933 million, respectively.

As at 31 December 2024 and 2025, credit impaired loans with a net carrying value of KZT 29,418 million and KZT 37,469 million, respectively were either fully or partially collateralized, reflecting the extent to which collateral and other credit enhancements mitigate credit risk.

Modified loans to customers

As a result of the Group’s forbearance activities loans to customers might be modified. Modification doesn't lead to a material change in the net present value (“NPV”), therefore the Group doesn't recognise a modification gain/loss.The following tables refer to modified loans to customers where modification does not result in derecognition.

Loans to customers (with allowance for impairment losses based on lifetime ECL) modified during the years ended 31 December 2024 and 2025:

2024 2025
Gross carrying amount of loans to customers that are impaired after modification but not NPL as at 1 January 68,029 80,012
Gross carrying amount of modified loans to customers within period 157,179 201,556
Loans to customers transferred to non impaired category (cured loans) (92,276) (121,395)
Loans to customers transferred to NPL (33,178) (46,539)
Repaid loans to customers (19,742) (43,644)
Gross carrying amount of loans to customers that are impaired after modification but not NPL as at 31 December 80,012 69,990

The net carrying amount of loans to customers at time of modification, that are modified during the years ended 31 December 2024 and 2025 were KZT 117,763 million and KZT 160,156 million, respectively. The gross carrying amount of modified loans to customers for which the allowance for impairment losses changed from lifetime to 12-month ECL in the years ended 31 December 2024 and 2025 were KZT 38,744 million and KZT 101,774 million, respectively

Macro sensitivity

The Group has performed a sensitivity analysis on its loan portfolio. For the purpose of ECL estimation the Group assumes a scenario of a 1 percentage point shift of the nominal Exchange rate of USD and base rate KZT.

A shift in the baseline nominal Exchange rate of USD by +/- 1 percentage point with respective correction of upside and downside scenarios lead to change in loss allowance amount by

KZT -1,447/+1,407 million respectively.

A shift in baseline Short-term interest rate by +/- 1 percentage point with respective correction of upside and downside scenarios lead to change in loss allowance amount by KZT -1,386/ +1,381 million respectively.

Scenario for the nominal USD/KZT exchange rate:

  • 5.20% and 1.31% for years 2026 and 2027 respectively as the baseline scenario;
  • 1.57% and -2.31% for years 2026 and 2027 respectively as upside scenario;
  • 8.83% and 4.94% for years 2026 and 2027 respectively as downside scenario.

Scenario for the base rate KZT:

  • 17.3% and 13.9% for years 2026 and 2027 respectively as the baseline scenario;
  • 16.41% and 13.01% for years 2026 and 2027 respectively as upside scenario;
  • 17.3% and 14.79% for years 2026 and 2027 respectively as downside scenario.

Liquidity risk

The liquidity management framework of the Group mainly consists of following instruments:

  • Assessment of sufficient level of high quality liquid assets;
  • Cash flow forecasting;
  • Diversification of funding;
  • Social media marketing;
  • Up-to-date contingent funding plan.

The liquidity risk is managed considering specific aspects of Kazakhstan economy, in particular limited funding instruments and possible dollarization due to currency devaluation expectations.

The Group devotes great significance to social media marketing, to support the brand of the Group and mitigate various risks such as liquidity and reputational risks. The division of social media marketing covers mass media, social networks, blogs and other sources of information, available to current or potential customers.

A major part of the Group’s obligations consists of customer accounts of individuals, with nominal maturity under 2 years. However, 92% of deposits in 2025 were rolled over, which absent a liquidity event such as a run on the bank, allows the Group to maintain a long-term stable funding base. The average amount of individuals’ customer accounts balance is KZT 1,296 thousand as at 31 December 2025, which is another indicator of diversification and stability of the funding base.

The Group retains a significant amount of high quality liquid assets, which consists mainly of cash, deposits within NBRK, short-term and mid-term notes of NBRK and bonds issued by the Ministry of Finance of the Republic of Kazakhstan.

Market risk

Price Risk

The Group's market risk arises from fluctuations in the value of financial instruments because of changes in market prices whether those changes are caused by factors specific to the individual instrument or factors affecting all instruments traded in the market. The Group has established various limits on operations with securities, including instrument specific limits, in order to balance profit and risk in the securities portfolio. The Group's portfolio is predominantly comprised of Kazakhstan government debt securities.

Interest rate risk

The contractual maturities of assets and liabilities of the Group has modest gaps, which provides possibilities of instant reactions on changes of market interest rates. The Group has significant amounts of high quality liquid assets with a short maturity which helps to minimize the sensitivity to a sharp increase of interest rates in case of a liquidity shortfall on the market.

Other liabilities 112,245
TOTAL LIABILITIES 335,807

The non-controlling interest recognised at the acquisition date was measured as a proportionate share of the identifiable net assets and amounted to KZT 85,736 million.

Goodwill on acquisition

Total consideration 582,444
Plus: Non-controlling interests 85,736
Less: Fair value of identifiable net assets acquired (247,863)
Foreign exchange translation differences 1,908
Goodwill on acquisition 422,225

The goodwill on acquisition is primarily related to sales growth from future product and service offerings, new customers and expected synergies from the combination. None of the goodwill is expected to be deductible for income tax purposes.

The measurement period adjustments are incorporated into the business combination accounting. Intangible assets, represented by trademark and customer base, acquired in a business combination are recognised initially at their fair value at the acquisition date (which is regarded as their cost) and have definite useful life. The useful life of the trademark is determined by the estimated period over which customer loyalty and marketing support are expected to generate economic benefits, useful life can be extended upon the execution of specific brand development initiatives and identifiable capital investments that demonstrably enhance the asset’s economic life. Carrying value of trademark and customer base as at the acquisition date is KZT 225,130 million and KZT 33,634 million, respectively. The measurement period adjustments resulted in a corresponding increase of deferred tax liabilities amounted to KZT 64,691 million, increase of non-controlling interest amounted to KZT 67,287 million and decrease of goodwill amounted to KZT 126,786 million.

The acquired business contributed revenues of KZT 1,036,582 million and net loss of

KZT 68,034 million to the Group for the period from 29 January 2025 to 31 December 2025. If the acquisition had occurred on 1 January 2025, consolidated pro-forma revenue and net loss for the period ended 31 December 2025 would have been KZT 1,115,710 million and KZT 67,250 million, respectively.
