INTERIM STATEMENT FOR JANUARY–MARCH 2023 7 May 2024 3 ===== SIDA 4 ===== Group CEO’s comment The first quarter saw the most severe Nordic winter weather since 2010 and our primary focus has been on helping affected customers. Nonetheless, operational momentum was strong, with 10 per cent currency adjusted premium growth and positive underlying margin momentum. Hence, we have narrowed our combined ratio outlook for 2024 and now expect to land in the 83–85 per cent range. At our Capital Markets Day on 6 March 2024, we outlined an agenda that puts organic growth at the heart of our ambition to grow operating EPS by more than 7 per cent per annum in 2024–2026. We have made an excellent start on this in the first quarter, with Private and the UK growing premiums by 7 per cent and 25 per cent, respectively, on a currency adjusted basis. Private benefited from investments made in digital and non-motor products, as premiums increased by 14 per cent in personal insurance and 7 per cent in property insurance. In the UK, we continued to see the effect of the significant price increases taken during the second half of 2023 and a rise in customer count, both in motor and home. First quarter severe weather claims amounted to approximately EUR 100 million in If P&C — the highest level observed since the severe winter of 2010. An extended period of cold weather, heavy snow and icy roads in January and February adversely affected both the motor and property lines, particularly in Private. By geography, Norway and Sweden were most affected, accounting for almost 90 per cent of recorded winter claims, while Denmark was within the normal range. Partly offsetting this, large claims were around EUR 40 million below budget. Although it is clearly too early to draw any firm conclusions, I am encouraged by this as it follows a tightening in risk appetite in Industrial over 2023. The underlying Group combined ratio improved by 1.1 percentage points year-on-year, driven by positive momentum in all segments except Topdanmark, as claims inflation remained below our prudent pricing assumptions. The adjusted risk ratio in If P&C improved by 0.3 percentage points, ex-discounting, with Private seeing the most positive momentum, and the cost ratio declined on a combination of efficiency gains and solid top line growth. We continue to cover estimated Nordic claims inflation of 4-5 per cent with price increases, even as this appears to be trending toward the lower part of the range. In the UK, we estimate that market-wide motor claims inflation fell modestly from the 12 per cent observed over most of 2023, while the benefits of the substantial price increases taken over 2023 continued to earn into the P&L. As a result of this, our headline UK operating ratio improved by 2 percentage points to 91.4 per cent, in what is typically the seasonally most challenging quarter. Together with strong premium growth, this enabled Hastings to deliver a 71 per cent increase in underwriting profit year-on-year, adding 5 percentage points to group-level growth. UK motor pricing has stabilised during the first few months of 2024 as the market assesses the impact of the price increases taken in 2023 and shifting claims trends but we continue to be prudent in our own underwriting, as always. In addition to a delivering on organic growth, we will continue to be disciplined in managing our capital. We are in the process of executing on capital optimisation actions worth up to EUR 700 million, as outlined at our CMD, and will provide an update on capital allocation with our First-Half 2024 results. Torbjörn Magnusson Group CEO INTERIM STATEMENT FOR JANUARY–MARCH 2024 Group CEO’s comment 4 ===== SIDA 5 ===== Outlook Outlook for 2024 Following the first quarter result, Sampo has narrowed its 2024 outlook and now expects to deliver a Group combined ratio of 83–85 per cent. Previously, the outlook for the 2024 Group combined ratio was below 85 per cent, as per the stock exchange release published on 6 March 2024. Sampo Group’s combined ratio is subject to volatility driven by, among other factors, seasonal weather patterns, large claims and prior year development. The net financial result will be significantly influenced by capital markets’ developments. The major risks and uncertainties for the Group in the near-term In its current day-to-day business activities Sampo Group is exposed to various risks and uncertainties, mainly through its major business units. Major risks affecting the Group companies’ profitability and its variation are market, credit, insurance and operational risks. At the Group level, sources of risks are the same, although they are not directly additive due to the effects of diversification. Uncertainties in the form of major unforeseen events may have an immediate impact on the Group’s profitability. The identification of unforeseen events is easier than the estimation of their probabilities, timing, and potential outcomes. Macroeconomic and financial market developments affect Sampo Group primarily through the market risk exposures it carries via its insurance company investment portfolios and insurance liabilities and through strategic investments. Over time, adverse macroeconomic effects could also have an impact on Sampo’s operational business, for example by reducing economic growth or increasing claims costs. Inflation has continued to fall in 2024 with euro-area headline inflation starting to approach the central bank target. The worst of the recent inflation surge seems to be over unless geopolitical events cause new shocks to energy prices. However, the continued strength of Europe’s labour market and rapid wage growth could keep price pressures elevated. This creates uncertainty on whether central banks will be keeping interest rates elevated longer than expected. This may lead to both a significant slowdown in economic growth and a deterioration in the debt service capacity of businesses, households and governments, raising the risk of abrupt asset repricing in financial markets. Furthermore, the potential escalation of wars in Ukraine and the Middle East represent a major economic risk. These developments are currently causing significant uncertainties in economic and capital market development. At the same time rapidly evolving hybrid threats create new challenges for states and businesses. There are also a number of widely identified macroeconomic, political and other sources of uncertainty which can, in various ways, affect the financial services industry in a negative manner. Sampo Group’s insurance exposures in Russia or Ukraine are limited to certain Nordic industrial line clients, with coverage subject to war exclusions. On the asset side, Sampo has no material direct investments in Russia or Ukraine. Given the limited direct exposure, the biggest risk from the war in Ukraine to Sampo relates to the second order capital markets’ and macroeconomic effects outlined above. Other sources of uncertainty are unforeseen structural changes in the business environment and already identified trends and potential wide-impact events. These external drivers may have a long-term impact on how Sampo Group’s business will be conducted. Examples of identified trends are demographic changes, sustainability issues, and technological developments in areas such as artificial intelligence and digitalisation including threats posed by cybercrime. INTERIM STATEMENT FOR JANUARY–MARCH 2024 Outlook 5 ===== SIDA 6 ===== Financial highlights for January–March 2024 The start of the year 2024 brought the most challenging winter conditions seen in the Nordics since 2010, having a material impact on the Group’s underwriting result. However, top line growth was strong, supported by all business areas, and underlying margin development remained positive. Gross written premiums and brokerage income increased by 10 per cent on a currency adjusted basis and by 9 per cent on a reported basis to EUR 3,297 million (3,016). The Nordics saw first quarter currency adjusted growth of 7.6 per cent. Private GWP growth accelerated to 7.2 per cent, driven by high and stable retention of 89 per cent and strong development in personal insurance and property, while motor volumes were subdued due to continued low new car sales. UK top line growth amounted by 21.9 per cent on a local currency basis on the back of policy count growth of 6 per cent and as the large price increases made during the second half of 2023 continued to roll into the portfolio. Commercial benefited from high retention and rate increases at 1 January renewals that drove local currency premium growth to 5.1 per cent. Industrial achieved 13.1 per cent growth in GWP supported by successful 1 January renewals with material price increases but reductions to certain large property exposures led net premiums being broadly stable year-on-year. The underlying margin trend remained positive as the Group delivered a 1.1 percentage point improvement in the underlying combined ratio, following positive momentum in both the Nordics and the UK. If reported an undiscounted adjusted risk ratio improvement of 0.3 percentage points year-on year. This was achieved by continued disciplined underwriting and pricing exceeding Nordic claims inflation, which remained stable at the lower end of the 4–5 per cent range. The UK business also saw continued positive development as Hastings reported an operating ratio of 91.4 per cent (93.3); combined with strong top line growth, this drove a 71 per cent increase in the underwriting result. UK claims inflation remained elevated but has modestly reduced from the 12 per cent observed over most of 2023. The solid underlying development was offset by harsh Nordic winter conditions that led to 8.0 percentage points of severe weather effects on If’s risk ratio. The negative effect was approximately EUR 100 million on the If’s underwriting result, partly offset by large claims being approximately EUR 40 million below budget. As a result, the group underwriting result decreased by 10 per cent on a currency adjusted basis and by 11 per cent to EUR 260 million (292) on a reported basis. The Group combined ratio was 87.1 per cent (84.0). Nonetheless, given the strong momentum in Sampo’s business, the Group has narrowed its combined ratio outlook for 2024 to 83–85 per cent (from below 85). Sampo Group underlying combined ratio development for January–March 2024 1-3/2024 1-3/2023 Change Combined ratio, % 87.1 84.0 3.1 Large claims, % -2.0 -1.9 -0.1 Severe weather, % 6.0 2.0 4.1 Prior year development, risk adjustment and other technical effects, % -1.2 -1.6 0.3 Discounting effect, current year, % -2.9 -2.8 -0.1 Undiscounted underlying combined ratio, current year, % 87.3 88.4 -1.1 Large claims measured against budget but severe weather claims are reported in full; negative figures indicate a positive outcome. Severe weather includes natural catastrophes. Negative figures for prior year development indicate positive reserve run-off. The discounting effect represents the impact of discounting of current year claims reserves on the underlying combined ratio. The net financial result amounted to EUR 265 million (123), driven by strong investment returns and slightly higher discount rates. Net investment income increased to EUR 295 million (253), supported by strong equity market performance and higher running yields. The Group fixed income running yield stood at 4.0 per cent and mark-to- market yield at 4.7 per cent at the end of March 2024. Insurance finance income or expense (IFIE) amounted to INTERIM STATEMENT FOR JANUARY–MARCH 2024 Financial highlights 6 ===== SIDA 7 ===== EUR -30 million (-130), including a negative effect from unwind of discounting of EUR -59 million (-60) and a positive effect of EUR 34 million (-61) from changes in discount rates. Operating EPS stood broadly unchanged at EUR 0.50 (0.51). The negative effect from lower underwriting result was partly offset by higher investment returns and capital management actions executed in 2023. Sampo targets more than 7 per cent operating EPS growth on average over 2024–2026. The Group pro forma Solvency II ratio, adjusted for the demerger-related transactions and including dividend accrual, stood at 180 per cent, down from 182 per cent at the end of 2023. The decrease was mainly driven by an increased SCR due to a higher symmetric adjustment. Financial leverage amounted to 24.6 per cent, down from 25.3 per cent at the end of 2023. Adjusting for the dividend for 2023, financial leverage was 26.8 per cent, down from 27.7 per cent at the 2023 year-end. Sampo targets a solvency ratio of 150–190 per cent and a financial leverage of below 30 per cent. Sampo Group results for January–March 2024 EURm If Topdanmark Hastings Holding Elim.

Severe weather includes natural catastrophes. Negative figures for prior year development indicate positive reserve run-off. The discounting effect represents the impact of discounting of current year claims reserves on the risk ratio. Underwriting performance If reported an underwriting result of EUR 171 million (217) and a combined ratio of 86.8 per cent (82.4) for the first quarter of 2024. The result was negatively impacted by a high number of severe weather claims following a significantly harsher winter season than usual and the storm Ingunn, while large claims developed favourably. The underlying margin trend remained positive with an undiscounted adjusted risk ratio improvement of 0.3 percentage points and a cost ratio reduction of 0.4 percentage points year-on-year. INTERIM STATEMENT FOR JANUARY–MARCH 2024 Business areas 8 ===== SIDA 9 ===== Premium development If reported gross written premiums, GWP, of EUR 2,095 million (1,966) in January–March 2024. Excluding currency effects, premiums grew by 7.6 per cent year-on-year. All business areas and countries contributed to growth which was mainly driven by repricing that exceeded Nordic claims inflation, falling within the lower end of the 4–5 per cent range. The strong development also benefited from successful 1 January renewals in Industrial and Commercial. In the first quarter of 2024 Private delivered GWP growth of 7.2 per cent driven by rate increases covering claims inflation. Growth was particularly strong in Norway. The positive development was supported by 14 per cent growth in Personal insurance, and 7 per cent growth in Property insurance. Growth in the Motor segment was dampened by low new car sales volumes and stood at 5 per cent. Nordic new car sales declined by 10 per cent year-on-year in the first quarter of 2024, with new car sales in If’s largest market Sweden down 6 per cent compared to the same period last year. Excluding the Swedish mobility business, currency adjusted GWP growth in the quarter was 8.1 per cent for Private and 8.0 per cent for If. The retention rate in Private in the first quarter stood at 89 per cent (90) despite rate actions and a general slowdown in the Nordic economies. Private digital sales growth remains strong with an increase of 7 per cent year- on-year. Currency adjusted GWP growth in Commercial in January–March 2024 was 5.1 per cent driven by robust growth across all countries, notably in Norway. The positive development was supported by successful 1 January renewals, rate adjustments aligned with claims inflation, and high retention. The growth benefited from strong development in personal insurance, while growth in the SME segment stood at 4 per cent. Digital sales increased by 20 per cent year-on-year, driven by an expansion of the digital offering and increased usage of self-service solutions. The Industrial business saw a strong outcome at the 1 January renewal, driving currency adjusted GWP growth of 13.1 per cent in the first quarter of 2024. Rate increases continued in all countries, with the largest contribution coming from the property segment. The Baltic business achieved a currency adjusted GWP growth of 8.5 per cent in January–March 2024. All three Baltic countries reported growth driven by both an increase in policy numbers and repricing initiatives to mitigate claims inflation. Combined ratio development If reported a combined ratio of 86.8 per cent (82.4) for January–March 2024. In early 2024, the Nordic countries experienced a notably harsher winter than in previous years, leading to severe weather adding 8.0 percentage points (1.2) to the combined ratio. The increase in weather-related claims was driven by very low temperatures and heavy snowfall. Private was hit the hardest, with severe weather effects split roughly equally between motor and property. Geographically, Norway and Sweden were the most affected countries. The harsh winter was partly offset by large claims being 2.9 percentage points (-2.8) better than budget. If’s large claims outcome is reported as a deviation against budget, while severe weather effects are disclosed in full. Prior year gains increased to 4.2 percentage points (2.3) and the risk adjustment and other technical effects had an impact of 1.8 percentage points (1.5). The discounting effect in the first quarter of 2024 was 3.0 per cent, unchanged compared to the same period last year. In total, the risk ratio deteriorated by 4.7 percentage points year-on-year to 66.2 per cent (61.5) in the first quarter of 2024. The undiscounted adjusted risk ratio improved by 0.3 percentage points year-on-year. INTERIM STATEMENT FOR JANUARY–MARCH 2024 Business areas 9 ===== SIDA 10 ===== The cost ratio for January–March 2024 improved by 0.4 percentage points to 20.6 per cent (21.0). The cost ratio development compares favourably to If P&C’s target for 2024–2026 of a ~20 basis point yearly cost ratio reduction. Education and development costs are included in the cost ratio.

The mark-to-market return on investments stood at 1.9 per cent (2.2), driven by increased interest rates and positive development in equity markets. The investment portfolio has gradually been reinvested at higher rates. At the end of March, fixed income running yield was 4.2 per cent (3.5), unchanged compared to year-end 2023. The unwind of discounting amounted to EUR -43 million (-45) in the first quarter of 2024. Changes in discount rates had a positive effect of EUR 24 million (-64).

Sampo plc held 44.0 million shares in Topdanmark at 31 March 2024. The holding remains unchanged from the end of 2023 and corresponds to an ownership of 48.9 per cent of all shares and 49.6 per cent of all votes. The market value of the holding was EUR 1,741 million at 31 March 2024. During the first quarter, there was a high frequency of weather-related events and the combined ratio for Topdanmark for January–March 2024 consequently increased to 84.0 per cent from 82.2 per cent in the comparison period. Underwriting result for January–March 2024 increased to EUR 58 million (57), including Oona Health. Topdanmark reported a profit before taxes of EUR 63 million (63) for January–March 2024 in Sampo Group’s profit and loss account. On 23 April 2024, Topdanmark’s Annual General Meeting approved the proposed dividend of DKK 11.50 per share, and Sampo consequently received approximately EUR 68 million in dividends from Topdanmark after the AGM.

Hastings’ gross written premiums increased 25 per cent year-on-year on a constant currency basis to EUR 467 million (363), reflecting rate increases implemented in 2023 and an increase in live customer policies (LCP). Total LCP increased to 3.5 million, up 6 per cent year-on-year, with an increase in motor insurance policy count of 2 per cent. Home insurance policies grew 27 per cent year-on-year. Estimated UK motor insurance market claims inflation remains elevated but has modestly reduced from the around 12 per cent observed for most of 2023. Claims frequencies were favourable during Q1, reflecting a lower risk mix and the severe weather in the prior year. Hastings generated an underwriting result of EUR 32 million (19), with the year-on-year increase largely being due to the increase in earned premiums and retail income partially offset by the increase in claims and other operating costs, including acquisition expenses and investment in personnel. Consequently, the operating ratio for the first quarter improved to 91.4 per cent (93.3). The net financial result stood stable at EUR 6 million (6), as a result of the lower discounting impact in 2024. Hastings’ profit before taxes increased to EUR 26 million (10), driven by higher underwriting result. Included within other items is EUR 11 million (14) of non-operational amortisation related to intangible assets identified on acquisition of the Hastings Group by Sampo plc in 2020, without which profit before taxes would have been EUR 37 million (24). INTERIM STATEMENT FOR JANUARY–MARCH 2024 Business areas 12 ===== SIDA 13 ===== Holding Sampo plc is the parent company of Sampo Group and responsible for the Group’s strategy and capital management activities. In addition to the Group’s insurance subsidiaries, a small number of direct investments are held in the holding company.

Conversely, the prior year saw mark-to-market losses on holding company’s financial investments. INTERIM STATEMENT FOR JANUARY–MARCH 2024 Business areas 13 ===== SIDA 14 ===== Financial position Group solvency Sampo Group’s pro forma Solvency II ratio, adjusted for demerger-related transactions and including dividend accrual based on the regular dividend of EUR 1.60 per share for 2023, amounted to 180 per cent at the end of March 2024. The unadjusted, regulatory Solvency II ratio amounted to 180 per cent, or 174 per cent net of dividend accrual. Sampo targets a Solvency II ratio of 150–190 per cent. The 2 percentage points decrease from the pro forma figure of 182 per cent at the end of 2023 was mainly driven by the increase in the SCR due to a rise in the symmetric adjustment from 1.46 per cent at year end 2023 to 5.25 per cent at the end of the first quarter. The Group’s own funds amounted to EUR 6,201 million and pro forma solvency capital requirement (SCR) to EUR 3,338 million on 31 March 2024. Financial leverage position Sampo Group’s financial leverage is calculated as Group financial debt divided by the sum of IFRS shareholders’ equity and financial debt. The Group targets financial leverage of below 30 per cent. Sampo Group’s shareholders’ equity amounted to EUR 7,971 million and financial debt to EUR 2,594 million at the end of March 2024, translating into a financial leverage of 24.6 per cent. The financial leverage improved from 25.3 per cent at the 2023 year-end, driven by first quarter results increasing the shareholders’ equity, while financial debt remained broadly unchanged. Adjusting for the dividend of EUR 1.80 per share for 2023, financial leverage was 26.8 per cent, down from 27.7 per cent at the end of 2023. More information on Sampo Group’s outstanding debt issues is available at www.sampo.com/debtfinancing. Ratings Relevant ratings for Sampo Group companies remained unchanged during the first quarter.

INTERIM STATEMENT FOR JANUARY–MARCH 2024 29 ===== SIDA 30 ===== Notes Accounting principles Sampo Group’s consolidated financial statements are prepared in accordance with the International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) adopted by the EU. The interim financial statements are not presented in accordance with IAS 34 standard as Sampo applies the statutes of security markets act (1278/2015), regarding the regular disclosure requirements. The same accounting principles and methods of computation are applied in this financial statement release as were applied in Sampo’s consolidated financial statements 2023, with the exception of an addition to the accounting principles described below. The financial statements 2023 are available on Sampo’s website www.sampo.com/year2023. Information presented in the Interim Statement is unaudited. Addition to accounting principles Investment component During the reporting period, investment components have been identified in reinsurance contracts held for cash flows repaid to a policyholder in all circumstances, i.e. regardless of whether an insured event occurs or not. Identified amounts of investment components are excluded from recognised amounts for reinsurance result in the statement of profit and other comprehensive income. Accounting principles requiring management judgement and key sources of estimation uncertainties Application of new or revised IFRSs and interpretations The Group will apply new or amended standards and interpretations related to the Group’s business in the financial years when they become effective, or if the effective date is other than the beginning of the financial year, during the financial year following the effective date. The new IFRSs coming into effect in financial year 2024 will not have any significant influence on the Group's financial reporting. Pillar II Sampo Group is within the scope of Pillar II regulations (EU Minimum Tax Directive and OECD Safe Harbour rules). Sampo Group companies have applied a temporary mandatory relief from deferred tax accounting for any potential impacts of the top-up tax and account for it as a current tax should it occur. Sampo Group will, as of fiscal year 2024, be subject to the global minimum top-up tax rules either at the ultimate parent entity level, by Sampo plc in Finland, or domestic top-up tax in the countries where Sampo Group companies operate and where such rules are enacted. At the reporting date, Sampo Group has identified that Hastings’ operations in Gibraltar are subject to the global minimum top-up tax rules. Discontinued operations in 2023 In order to to segregate Mandatum subgroup in the demerger of Sampo plc, Mandatum’s assets and liabilities were reclassified as a disposal group held for distribution to owners and related liabilities on 31 March 2023. In the statement of profit and other comprehensive income, the result of Mandatum is reported as a single line item as profit from the discontinued operations. The partial demerger was completed on 1 October 2023 and the first trading day for Mandatum on Nasdaq Helsinki was 2 October 2023. In the demerger, all the shares in Mandatum Holding Ltd (a wholly owned direct subsidiary of Sampo plc) and the related assets and liabilities were transferred without a liquidation procedure to Mandatum plc, a company incorporated in the demerger on the effective date. In addition, EUR 102 million of Sampo's general liabilities, not allocated to any specific business operations, were allocated to Mandatum plc. These liabilities cannot be legally transferred due to their nature, and therefore Sampo and Mandatum agreed on forming an equivalent debt relationship between them on 2 October 2023.

The liability for incurred claims relates to the obligation to investigate and pay valid claims that have occurred.

As announced by Topdanmark in the first quarter of 2024, Nordea Group has reserved the right to raise claims against Topdanmark Forsikring A/S for certain potential losses. At present, it is not possible for Topdanmark A/S to determine the size or existence of potential losses, and thus it is not possible to assess whether they would constitute losses which Topdanmark may be held liable for under the signed Share Purchase Agreement (SPA). Based on the currently available facts and arguments brought forward, Topdanmark Forsikring A/S has not acknowledged liability for the claims. Matters relating to the SPA may result in Topdanmark Forsikring A/S incurring costs that could affect Topdanmark A/S’ result for 2024 and/or coming accounting years. INTERIM STATEMENT FOR JANUARY–MARCH 2024 40 ===== SIDA 41 ===== 10 Subsequent events after the balance sheet date Topdanmark Group On 1 May 2024 Topdanmark announced that Topdanmark Forsikring A/S has entered into an agreement with Nordea regarding the process for completion of the IT separation of Topdanmark Liv Holding A/S (today Nordea Pension Holding Danmark A/S). The IT process has proven to be more comprehensive, complex and time consuming than first anticipated. It is now expected that the IT separation will be completed in the first half of 2025 instead of the second half of 2024 as first anticipated. The agreement is expected to entail additional costs amounting to a total of approx. DKK 175-195m after tax compared to the already announced expectations. These extraordinary costs are expected to be provisioned for in the accounts for Q2 2024. At the same time, Topdanmark Forsikring A/S has renewed the agreement with Nordea on the distribution of non- life insurance products. The existing agreement was about to expire by the end of 2024 and has now been renewed for three years until the end of 2027 at unchanged terms. Furthermore, the agreement includes an option to further extend it by an additional two years. Sale of holding in Saxo Bank The sale of Sampo’s holding in Saxo Bank to Mandatum, as agreed in connection with the demerger, has on 3 May 2024 received final regulatory approvals. The transaction is expected to complete in mid-May. INTERIM STATEMENT FOR JANUARY–MARCH 2024 41 ===== SIDA 42 =====
