Financial Statements of DB

5Y Trend (Revenue, Earnings, FCF)

Metric	Latest	YoYYoY means Year-over-Year. It compares the latest annual value with the previous annual value to show long-term trend strength.	QoQQoQ means Quarter-over-Quarter. It compares the latest quarter with the immediately previous quarter to show short-term momentum changes.
RevenueThe total money that came through the front door from selling things, before paying a single bill. Think of it as the grand total of every credit card swipe from customers. (YoY compares this year to last year's performance, while QoQ compares the current three months to the previous three).	$60.9B	-8.3%	-1.4%
Net IncomeThe absolute bottom line. If the company paid every single supplier, employee, banker, and tax collector, this is the actual money left in their pocket at the end of the day.	$6.9B	+105.9%	-12.6%
Gross MarginThe basic markup. If they sell a $100 pair of sneakers, this percentage tells you how much of that price tag is profit right after paying for the rubber and shoelaces, but before paying for things like store rent or TV commercials.	+49.9%	+17.4%	-0.2%
Operating MarginThe 'day job' efficiency score. Out of every dollar a customer spends, this shows how many cents the company keeps after making the product AND paying for all the everyday corporate overhead (like salaries, marketing, and keeping the lights on).	+16.0%	+100.1%	-10.6%
Net MarginThe final take-home percentage. When you strip away every conceivable cost, tax, and interest payment, this is the exact number of cents the company truly gets to keep from every dollar in sales.	+11.4%	+124.4%	-11.4%
Free Cash FlowThe holy grail of corporate cash. It's the spendable, physical money left over after the business pays for its daily operations AND buys the big, expensive upgrades (like new factories or servers) it needs to survive. This is the 'free' money they can use to pay dividends or buy back stock.	$0	+100.0%	—
FCF MarginThe ultimate cash conversion rate. It shows how good the company is at turning regular sales directly into cold, hard, spendable cash. A high percentage means the business is an absolute cash-printing machine.	0.0%	+100.0%	—
Debt / EquityThe financial risk gauge. It compares how much of the company's empire was built using borrowed money (loans) versus the owners' own money (shareholders). A high number means they are heavily leveraged and playing a riskier game; a low number means they are playing it safe.	324.0%	+66.5%	+24.0%
Current RatioThe 12-month survival check. It simply compares the cash they have right now (plus things they can quickly turn into cash) against the immediate bills they absolutely must pay this year. A score above 1 means they have enough in the wallet to cover the upcoming bills without panicking.	0.50x	+68.5%	+1007.9%
Total AssetsThe absolute size of the company's empire. It bundles together absolutely everything of value they own—from the cash in the register and the inventory in the warehouse, to the software patents in the vault and the factories on the ground.	$1435.1B	+3.5%	+2.8%

Q2 2026

Unknown Speaker

Silke-Nicole Szypa: Thank you for joining us for our second quarter and first half year 2026 results call. As usual, our Chief Executive Officer, Christian Sewing, will speak first, followed by our Chief Financial Officer, Raja Akram. The presentation, as always, is available to download in the Investor Relations section of our website at db.com. Before we get started, let me just remind you that the presentation contains forward-looking statements, which may not develop as we currently expect. We, therefore, ask you to take notice of the precautionary warning at the end of our materials. With that, let me hand over to Christian. Christian Sewing: Thank you, Silke, and good morning, everyone. We are very pleased with the performance we delivered and the momentum we achieved in the first half of 2026. We continued to invest in our Global Hausbank which paves the way for further growth, efficiency gains and value creation for shareholders. We grew revenues to EUR 17.2 billion, well on track to reach our full year ambition of around EUR 33 billion. This momentum enabled us to deliver a post-tax profit of EUR 4.1 billion, our highest ever for a half year. We made further progress on our key ratios. Post-tax RoTE increased to 11.9%, while our cost/income ratio improved to 60.9% despite the impact of SVA-accretive strategic actions we took in the second quarter. Our CET1 capital ratio was 13.9%, in line with our operating range. Strong organic capital generation enabled us to support business growth and make distribution deductions in line with our 60% payout ratio. And today, we are taking the next step. We are announcing a new EUR 500 million share buyback from 2026 net income. This is the first time we are executing a buyback from the current year's earnings, a clear sign of the earnings momentum and confidence we have built in the first half. This momentum positions us well to deliver our 2026 objectives and reinforces our confidence in achieving our 2028 targets. Now a few words on the progress we made on scaling our Global Hausbank, on Slide 3. We made tangible progress across all three levers of our strategy. We delivered revenue growth of 5% with strong contribution from the Investment Bank and focus growth areas. We maintained strict capital discipline. We announced the sale of the Private Bank's India franchise, which will be SVA positive upon closing next year, and we took a number of additional capital accretive measures across the franchise. Third, we progressed our scalable operating model. We continue to simplify our operating model in the Private Bank and made targeted investments in technology and front-to-back capabilities across the group. For example, in the Corporate Bank, we continued investing in our cash management capabilities and strengthening our coverage and sales platforms with multinational companies. Our franchise performance indicators are all positive with significant business volume growth across businesses. Assets …
