Preliminary figures 2020 and forecast 2021

German Financial Reporting Enforcement Panel (FREP)
- FREP has been commissioned by BaFin to conduct a sample audit of DFV's 2018 balance sheet.
- In addition to minor comments, a disagreement arose regarding the allocation of IPO costs.
- To avoid a protracted legal dispute, DFV agreed to FREP's findings.

German Financial Reporting Enforcement Panel (FREP)
IPO costs 2018
- According to IFRS, the costs of the IPO, which at DFV amounted to approximately € 3.6 million for the 2018 IPO, are to be allocated according to a reasonable formula if old and new shares are placed at the same time (IAS 32.38). The amount relating to the raising of new capital, i.e. the placement of new shares, is to be reported directly in equity, while the amount for making old shares tradable is to be reported as an expense.
- DFV conducted the IPO exclusively to acquire new capital. Old shares were not sold as part of the IPO, so the entire costs of the IPO were recognised directly in equity.
- FREP now explicitly denies this opinion for € 0.8 million (mainly employee shares), as there is no direct connection to the capital increase.
- For the remaining €2.8 million, it is noted that these were not allocated according to "meaningful codes" and that at least part of these costs should have been reported in the 2018 expenses. However, the FREP was unable to quantify this amount exactly. A breakdown by number of shares was not justifiable for us, as this would not have led to a causation-basedbreakdown.
- We would like to make it clear that these costs are already included in DFV's equity capital, so there is no change in DFV's asset situation or future results.

DFV
In BaFin's view, extrapolation
from past interest rates is not permissible for strongly growing insurance companies.
Alternative methods to the common ACIR method must have the same security (90%).
The interest rate achieved by
DFV in 2020 is 2.5%.

CareFlex Chemie
Background to the decision
On 17 December 2020, DFV was requested by BaFin to provide evidence that the actuarial interest rate of 2% can be provided with sufficient security. A deadline of 31 December 2020 was set for this. BaFin formulated a requirement for the proof to confirm 90% security.
On 22 December 2020, DFV submitted an ALM study confirming adequate security. Since BaFin had informed the consortium at the same time that it currently did not have the proof of sufficient security of an underwriter and both R+V and Barmenia could think that it could only be DFV, we were therefore forced to exit as the consortium members - incorrectly - feared an infection of the interest rate in future premium adjustments.

Summary
The forced exit from CareFlex is frustrating
and ultimately unfounded.
Despite CareFlex Chemie, we continued
regular insurance business in 2020 without any restrictions.

More digitalisation
One focus for further growth will be more digitalisation:
- More voice assistants
- More online communication
- More automation
18
More digitalisation: the future's insurance take out
Alexa, I want supplementary dental insurance!
In 2018, a skill was already programmed for digital product consulting that conducts a consulting dialogue and accesses the actuarial calculation core via an API interface.
We are convinced that the insurance take out of the future will also take place via digital voice assistants. That's why you can already take out DFV household, liability, dental and supplementary long-termcare insurance via Amazon's Alexa.
