Swedbank – Interim report Third quarter│2026│3 CEO Comment The third quarter was characterised by a high level of activity. Through advisory, financing and everyday banking services, we support our customers, and Swedbank has once again delivered a strong result in uncertain times. The global economy continues to show resilience. High energy prices are holding back growth, while large tech investments, especially in AI, are making a positive contribution. According to the IMF, global growth is expected to reach 3 per cent in 2026 and then increase slightly in 2027. With strong fundamentals in place, our home markets continue to develop well. Rising real wages and increased purchasing power and investments are strengthening economic activity. We estimate that the economies of Sweden, Estonia, Latvia and Lithuania will grow by 2 to 3 per cent this year, twice as fast as the expected growth rate in the euro area. Profit increased during the quarter and amounted to SEK 8 249m. Return on equity was 15.6 per cent. Both net interest income and net commission income increased, while net gains and losses on financial items and other income decreased. Costs decreased and were seasonally lower. Credit quality is solid. During the quarter, the risk level in Entercard has been adapted to Swedbank’s risk appetite, and Entercard’s consumer loans are being sold. Credit impairments were positive and amounted to SEK 701m during the quarter. Earnings per share amounted to SEK 7.30. After the end of the quarter, we received notification that two of our important credit risk models have been approved: the mortgage model in Sweden and the corporate model in the Baltics. We are continuing to deliver on our Swedbank 15/27 plan through strengthened customer interactions, increased business volumes and improved efficiency. With our improved organisation in place, we are working proactively and closer to our customers. We have created clear business momentum in our four home markets. This is reflected in the strong growth in mortgages, savings and our corporate business. Swedbank is a leader in the mortgage markets in Sweden, Estonia, Latvia and Lithuania. In Sweden, we once again grew faster than the market, taking 19 per cent of total market growth in July and August in our own channels. The mortgage business performed strongly in the Baltics. Stable labour markets and rising real wages contributed to a high level of activity in the housing market. New sales were high in all three countries and mortgage volumes rose by 6 per cent in local currency. Our savings business was characterised by a high level of activity and strong trust from our customers. Net inflows to Swedbank Robur and Swedbank Försäkring amounted to SEK 8bn and SEK 12bn respectively during the quarter. Swedbank Robur is the largest actor in the fund market in Sweden, Estonia, Latvia and Lithuania. During the quarter, we launched the Swedbank Robur Food and Water fund, which invests in companies that are developing solutions for the future supply of essential resources. In the corporate business, our clear customer focus and proactive work are producing results. Lending volumes grew by SEK 12bn, of which the real estate sector accounted for approximately half. In the Baltics, corporate lending increased by 6 per cent in local currency. Growth was driven primarily by the energy sector and agriculture. Swedbank is an important financier of investments that contribute to the energy transition in Estonia, Latvia and Lithuania. Swedbank has been named the most-loved brand in the Baltic countries for the eighth consecutive year. This is a level of trust we will continue to earn. AI is an important part of our strategic work and is being used to develop the business, give our employees better support, improve efficiency and strengthen cyber- security. During the quarter, we launched The Oak, our AI-assistant for all employees in the bank. AI for all, opportunities for all. As a bank, we have an important responsibility to help improve the financial health of both adults and children. Through our new collaboration with the Gimi app, we help children explore everyday finances and savings together with their parents. Swedbank operates in some of Europe’s most attractive markets and we create value for our customers and shareholders. We stand strong and are well-positioned for sustainable growth and profitability. Our customers’ future is our focus. Jens Henriksson President and CEO

Group development Result for third quarter 2026 compared to second quarter 2026 Swedbank’s profit increased to SEK 8 249m (7 195). Income decreased, but at the same time both expenses and credit impairments decreased compared to the preceding quarter. Foreign exchange effects boosted the profit before impairments, bank taxes and resolution fees by SEK 82m. The return on equity was 15.6 per cent (14.2) and the cost/income ratio was 0.41 (0.43). The adjusted return on equity was 16.0 per cent and the adjusted cost/income ratio was 0.37.

Net interest income and net commission income increased, while net gains and losses on financial items and other income decreased. Foreign exchange effects increased income by SEK 126m. Net interest income increased to SEK 11 568m (11 276) mainly due to increased loan volumes in both Sweden and the Baltic countries. In the Baltic countries, higher earnings on deposits contributed to net interest income, while borrowing costs rose due to higher market interest rates. One additional interest day and foreign exchange effects made positive contributions. Net commission income rose to SEK 4 704m (4 462). The increase was mainly due to higher asset management commissions, resulting from stock market and exchange rate developments. At the same time, card commissions were seasonally higher. One additional day made a positive contribution. Net gains and losses on financial items decreased to SEK 601m (1 060). The decrease was primarily attributable to revaluation effects. Income related to customer trading decreased. Other income decreased to SEK 1 114m (1 306), mainly due to lower net insurance income, following revaluation effects. Higher claims in the Baltic countries also contributed to the decrease, partly offset by profits from companies in which Swedbank is a partial owner. Expenses decreased to SEK 7 417m (7 854). The main reason was that extraordinary costs relating to Swedbank’s restructuring programme were lower than in the second quarter of 2026, which was offset by the settlement with the New York State Department of Financial Services (DFS) amounting to SEK 483m. Underlying expenses decreased in line with the usual seasonal pattern. Foreign exchange effects increased expenses by SEK 44m. Credit impairments were net positive and amounted to SEK -701m (313), corresponding to a credit impairment ratio of –0.14 per cent (0.06). Swedbank’s agreement on the sale of non-performing loans in Entercard contributed to a reduction in expected credit impairments of SEK 543m. Rating and stage migrations contributed SEK 420m (462), which was offset by individual assessments of SEK -265m (-191), updated macroeconomic scenarios of SEK -216m (108) and post-model adjustments of SEK -70m (-109). Bank taxes and resolution fees amounted to SEK 730m (786). The decrease between quarters was primarily due to the fact that expenses relating to the Riksbank’s interest-free deposit requirements were recognised during the second quarter. The income tax expense amounted to SEK 2 292m (1 956), corresponding to an effective tax rate of 21.7 per cent (21.4). The cost of the settlement with DFS in the third quarter was assessed as non-tax-deductible, which contributed to the higher effective tax rate.

Swedbank – Interim report Third quarter│2026│7 Result for January-September 2026 compared to January-September 2025 Swedbank’s profit decreased to SEK 22 789m (24 593). Costs increased compared to the corresponding period in the preceding year, partly offset by increased income and lower credit impairments. Foreign exchange effects had a negative impact of SEK 152m on profit before impairments, bank taxes and resolution fees. Return on equity was 14.2 per cent (15.4) and the cost/income ratio was 0.42 (0.36). The adjusted return on equity was 14.8 per cent and the adjusted cost/income ratio was 0.39.

Foreign exchange effects negatively impacted income by SEK 265m. Net interest income increased slightly to SEK 33 991m (33 225). The acquisition of Entercard in December 2025 and increased volumes made a positive contribution, partly offset by lower interest rate environment in Sweden. Foreign exchange effects negatively impacted net interest income. Net commission income rose to SEK 13 338m (12 071), mainly related to higher asset management commissions due to a positive stock market performance and higher card commissions largely resulting from the acquisition of Entercard. Net gains and losses on financial items increased to SEK 2 350m (2 245). Other income decreased to SEK 3 484m (3 855). The decrease was mainly due to lower net insurance income relating to higher levels of claims during 2026. Expenses increased to SEK 22 153m (18 264). The increase was mainly attributable to the restructuring programme that began during the second quarter of 2026. Other contributing factors were the settlement with DFS corresponding to SEK 483m in the third quarter, the acquisitions of Entercard in December 2025 and Stabelo in November 2025, annual wage reviews and higher IT costs. The increase in 2026 is also explained by VAT reimbursements during the first three quarters of 2025. Foreign exchange effects reduced expenses by SEK 113m. Credit impairments were net positive and amounted to SEK -224m (-389), corresponding to a credit impairment ratio of –0.01 per cent (-0.03). Rating and stage migrations contributed to increases in expected credit impairments. The increase was offset by reductions from individual assessments and as a consequence of the agreement on the sale of non-performing loans in Entercard. Bank taxes and resolution fees amounted to SEK 2 188m (2 269). Bank taxes in Sweden increased in 2026, while the temporary bank tax in Lithuania had ended. The net change between the years resulted in a decrease in bank taxes and resolution fees. The income tax expense amounted to SEK 6 258m (6 657), corresponding to an effective tax rate of 21.5 per cent (21.3). The cost of the settlement with DFS in the third quarter of 2026 was assessed as non-tax- deductible, which contributed to the higher effective tax rate. Volume trend by product area Swedbank mainly conducts business in the product areas of lending, deposits, fund savings, life insurance and payments. Lending Lending to customers increased by SEK 31bn to SEK 1 965bn (1 934) during the quarter, corresponding to 2 per cent. Compared to the corresponding period in the preceding year, lending increased by SEK 136bn, equivalent to 7 per cent. Foreign exchange effects positively impacted lending volumes by SEK 12bn compared to the second quarter of 2026 and by SEK 16bn compared to the third quarter in the preceding year.

The increase related to Sweden, Estonia, Latvia and other markets, where both a positive net flow and, above all, a positive market trend contributed. In Lithuania, fund assets under management decreased due to outflows linked to the pension reform that enables savers to withdraw pension capital in advance.

Cards Acquired card transaction volumes in Sweden, Norway, Finland and Denmark amounted to SEK 218bn during the period, a decrease of 7 per cent compared to the preceding year. The decrease was mainly due to currency effects and to changes in the customer portfolio. In the Baltic countries, acquired card transaction volumes amounted to SEK 44bn, an increase of 5 per cent compared to the preceding year. In local currency, acquired card transaction volumes increased by 8 per cent, driven by good underlying market activity. The number of card purchases made with Swedbank cards in Sweden, including cards issued by Entercard, amounted to 439 million (421), an increase of 9 per cent compared to the corresponding quarter of the preceding year. In the Baltic countries, the number of card purchases rose by 5 per cent compared to the corresponding period in the preceding year and amounted to a total of 302 million (279) during the quarter.

For more information on credit exposures, provisions and credit quality, see Notes 10, 12–14, as well as pages 41–49 in the Factbook. Funding and liquidity The third quarter was characterised by higher interest rates and by credit markets that functioned well. Concerns about higher inflation, primarily linked to

Swedbank – Interim report Third quarter│2026│10 higher energy prices, contributed to higher yield requirements on government bonds and to expectations that central banks’ policy rates will be raised and remain high for a longer period. Despite higher interest rates, credit spreads remained low, with some exceptions at the end of the quarter. Supported by continued inflows into fixed-income funds, demand from investors was strong. The Riksbank left the policy rate unchanged during the quarter, while the European and US central banks raised their policy rates. During the quarter, Swedbank primarily issued covered bonds in SEK, but also a senior green bond and a supplementary capital instrument (Tier 2) in euro. In total for the quarter, Swedbank issued SEK 40bn in long- term funding. At the end of the quarter, Swedbank’s short-term funding amounted to SEK 355bn (348). The need for financing is affected by the current liquidity situation, future maturities, and changes in deposit and lending volumes, and is therefore adjusted during the course of the year.

The total CET1 capital requirement, including Pillar 2 guidance, increased to 15.1 per cent (14.8) of the risk exposure amount (REA), mainly as a result of the annual updates in the Supervisory Review and Evaluation Process (SREP). The core primary capital buffer amounted to 2.1 per cent (2.6). CET1 capital amounted to SEK 172bn (170) and was mainly affected by the quarterly profit and estimated dividend. Change in Common Equity Tier 1 capital (Refers to the Swedbank consolidated situation) Risk Exposure Amount (REA) The REA increased to SEK 999bn (976) in the third quarter. The REA for credit risk increased by SEK 23bn, mainly due to increased volumes in Sweden and the Baltic countries. Credit valuation adjustment increased by SEK 0.7bn due to increased exposures. Change in REA (Refers to the Swedbank consolidated situation) The leverage ratio was 6.3 per cent (6.3) and thereby exceeded the leverage ratio requirement including Pillar 2 guidance of 3.2 per cent. Capital and resolution regulations The Swedish Financial Supervisory Authority (SFSA) decided on new capital requirements in connection with the annual SREP. Overall, the decision resulted in an increase of approximately 0.23 percentage points in the Pillar 2 requirement (P2R) for CET1 capital relative to the REA. The increase in P2R was partly due to portfolio developments that affects risk weights under the standardised approach that forms the basis of the SFSA’s calculation of the capital add-on in Pillar 2 for deficiencies in internal ratings-based (IRB) models, and partly to a higher capital requirement for interest rate risk in the banking book (IRRBB). In relation to REA, P2R for CET1 capital was 1.7 per cent (1.5). The Pillar 2 guidance (P2G) was unchanged at 0.5 per cent for CET1 capital in relation to REA and 0.15 per cent of the gross equity exposure amount for leverage ratio respectively.

Swedbank – Interim report Third quarter│2026│11 In accordance with guidelines from the European Banking Authority (EBA) and in order to adapt to the Capital Requirements Regulation III (CRR3), Swedbank is applying for approval of new IRB models. During the quarter, Swedbank received an approval from the SFSA to implement a new IRB model for calculating the probability of default (PD) in Swedish mortgages during the fourth quarter of 2026. The add-on for IRB models in P2R for CET1 capital will be reduced by approximately 0.7 percentage points as a result of the implementation. The SFSA has decided on a methodology change which entails that the percentage P2R for IRB models will be replaced by a REA add-on in Pillar 1 as of 31 December 2026. The change has no effect on absolute capital requirements expressed in SEK, but will recompose the capital requirements by lowering the percentage capital requirements, while total REA will increase. After the mortgage model has been implemented, approximately 0.3 percentage points remain as a capital add-on in Pillar 2, which as a consequence of the methodology will be replaced by an increase in REA of approximately SEK 20bn. Swedbank also received approval from the European Central Bank (ECB) after the end of the quarter to implement new IRB models for Baltic corporate lending. The implementation will take place during the first quarter of 2027 and is expected to result in a temporary REA add-on of approximately SEK 20bn until Swedbank has addressed the observations made by the ECB during the approval process. CRR3 took effect on 1 January 2025 with a phase-in period up to and including 2032. The European Commission (EC) has decided to postpone the implementation of the requirements for market risk by two years, until 2027. Under CRR3, the output floor for banks that use internal models is not expected to affect Swedbank’s capital requirements as long as the SFSA applies risk-weight floors to internal lending models for Swedish mortgages and lending for commercial properties. The SFSA has received approval from the EC to extend the risk-weight floors until 2027. Other events During the third quarter, the responsibility for some customers and thereby business volume was transferred from Swedish Banking to Wealth Management. The purpose of the change was to contribute to clearer customer responsibility, more relevant offerings and stronger customer relationships. The change affected the results for the respective business areas, and the comparative figures have been restated. On 16 July 2026, Swedbank reached a settlement with the New York State Department of Financial Services (DFS) to pay USD 50m for two instances of inadequate disclosure of information to the authority, in 2016 and 2018 respectively. The settlement marked the closure of all investigations related to Swedbank’s historical shortcomings. On 18 September, Entercard entered into an agreement with Brocc Finance and Intrum to sell the part of its consumer loan portfolio consisting of non-performing loans. The contractual value of the non-performing loans amounted to approximately SEK 4bn. The sale is expected to be completed in the fourth quarter of 2026, subject to fulfilment of standard closing conditions and regulatory approvals. On 30 September, Swedbank announced changes in its Group Executive Committee. Henrik Liljeblad was appointed permanent Head of Group Business Support, Eva Wilhelmsson was appointed to the Group Executive Committee as acting Chief Compliance Officer while the ordinary Chief Compliance Officer Britta Hjorth-Larsen left her position. It was also announced that Bo Bengtsson will leave his role as Head of the Corporates and Institutions Business Area no later than 31 March 2027. Events after the end of the period The Swedbank Transition Finance Framework was published on 1 October. The framework defines activities that contribute to the climate transition, but that cannot yet be classified as green. The purpose is to create transparency about Swedbank’s view on transition financing and to support the financing of activities that are necessary for the transition in emission-intensive sectors. Swedbank was granted the right to use a new method for calculating deductible VAT for the years 2016–2023 in accordance with modified case law from the Supreme Administrative Court in Sweden. The new method has now also been tested for 2024 and Swedbank received a decision from the Swedish Tax Agency on 9 October to the effect that Swedbank can reduce booked VAT expenses in respect of 2024 by SEK 193m in the fourth quarter of 2026. On 6 October, Entercard entered into an agreement with Ikano Bank AB to sell the remaining part of its consumer loan portfolio. The contractual amount of the loans amounted to approximately SEK 7bn as of 30 September, and the loans are classified as assets held for sale in the balance sheet. The sale is expected to be completed during the first quarter of 2027, subject to the fulfilment of standard closing conditions and regulatory approvals. After the end of the quarter, Swedbank was granted approval to apply new IRB models by the SFSA and the ECB respectively. Assessed effects are described on pages 10 and 11.

For more information, see Note 4. Business development Swedbank had strong growth in the mortgage market, with high availability and prompt responses to customers. In July and August, Swedbank’s share of total market growth through its own channels was 20.1 per cent and 17.5 per cent respectively. During the quarter, Swedbank developed a joint customer offering with Fastighetsbyrån to increase mortgage sales. The offering resulted in a total of more than 1,500 customer meetings being booked during the quarter. During the quarter, Swedish Banking further simplified its mortgage process by enhanced opportunities to use digital signatures. This contributes to a simpler, more efficient process for customers. A new flow was also introduced in the internet bank and in the app that makes it easier for customers to sign up for the Nyckelkund (Key Customer) package and take advantage of the offering. An AI-based assistant was launched during the quarter to support advisors on matters relating to credit regulations, contributing to faster responses to customers and continued strong compliance. Swedish Banking’s profit increased, primarily due to higher net interest and higher insurance income. The mortgage volume in Swedish Banking increased, while corporate lending decreased. Deposit volume decreased, primarily due to private deposits being positively impacted by tax refunds during the preceding quarter. Net commission income increased, primarily due to higher income from asset management. Expenses decreased during the quarter. Credit impairments amounted to SEK 57m (7) and were mainly due to rating and stage migrations.

Business development Activity in the housing market was high, due to stronger household confidence and by rising real wages. The mortgage portfolio continued to grow and demand for new mortgages remained high. Corporate lending increased, particularly in the energy sector and in agriculture. Swedbank enhanced its insurance offering. Home insurance was expanded, free of charge, to include cover against security-related events. An AI-based customer assistant was launched in the internet bank in the Baltic countries, contributing to a more personalised customer service. Swedbank’s strong brand position in the Baltic countries was confirmed by a number of awards in the Baltic Brand Forum. For the eighth consecutive year, Swedbank was named the “Most Loved Brand”. The bank was also named “Most Human Brand” and “Best Employer Brand”. Profit in local currency (EUR) increased by 1 per cent, due to higher income and lower expenses, partly offset by higher bank taxes and credit impairments. Net interest income rose by 9 per cent (EUR) due to higher volumes and higher market interest rates. Lending volumes increased by 4 per cent (EUR), mainly attributable to increased mortgage loans and corporate lending. Deposits rose by 1 per cent (EUR). Net commission income increased by 4 per cent (EUR) due to higher income from payments, asset management and lending. Other income decreased by 87 per cent (EUR) due to a higher level of weather-related claims and lower revaluation effects in insurance. Expenses decreased by 3 per cent (EUR), attributable to lower costs for premises and other costs, partly offset by higher staff costs. Credit impairments amounted to SEK 117m (104), mainly due to rating and stage migrations.

For more information, see Note 4 Business development Customer activity was high during the quarter, with strong demand for Swedbank’s services and increased lending volumes in most sectors. Continued close collaboration with corporate customers and a more coordinated offering contributed to supporting customers’ plans for financing and growth. Activity in the bond market was favourable. With higher interest rates contributing to a more selective risk appetite among investors, Swedbank supported customers in navigating the market conditions and implementing their financing strategies. Foreign exchange trading remained at a good level during the quarter, with continued customer demand linked to international trade and global business flows. During the quarter, access to enhanced liquidity management solutions was expanded, while a number of improvements were made in the area of digital signatures. These changes contribute to smoother processes and a better customer experience. Profit increased due to higher income and lower credit impairment provisions. A positive volume trend and more interest days resulted in an increase in net interest income. Net commission income increased primarily due to a rise in asset management, which was offset by seasonally lower income from bond issuances. Net gains and losses on financial items were seasonally lower, but remained stable. Interest rate and currency trading accounted for the majority of earnings. Despite seasonally lower payroll costs, expenses increased, partly due to higher IT costs. Credit impairments were net positive and amounted to SEK -460m (76), mainly due to updated macroeconomic scenarios and to reduced provisions in respect of individual assessments for a small number of customers.

Business development Wealth Management performed strongly during the quarter, driven by good customer growth, a high level of savings engagement and positive market conditions. A focus on helping customers make financial decisions that are sustainable in the long term contributed to increased savings volumes and stronger customer value. More than 10 000 individual financial plans were drawn up during the period using a new tool. During the quarter, the tool was integrated into the advisory services process, which will support more structured and proactive customer dialogues. Swedbank Robur remained the largest actor in the fund market in Sweden and the Baltic countries.

In total, 11 of Swedbank Robur’s funds now qualify for the Swedish premium pension fund marketplace. Swedbank Försäkring launched a number of digital services during the quarter to simplify processes for customers. Profit decreased marginally. The increase in expenses was partly offset by increased income. Net interest income decreased. Net commission income increased due to strong market growth, increased activity and a rise in other commission income. Expenses increased due to higher indirect expenses. Credit impairments were net positive and amounted to SEK -8m (-2).

For more information, see Note 4 4) There has been a reclassification from Other expenses to VAT reimbursments. Comparative figures have been restated for 2025. Result Profit for Group Functions and Other increased to SEK -78m (-417), mainly due to a reduction in credit impairments. The increase was partly offset by lower net interest income and by lower net gains and losses on financial items. Net interest income fell to SEK 525m (754), mainly due to lower net interest income in Group Treasury. Borrowing costs increased as a result of higher market interest rates, but lower central bank volumes also contributed. Net commission income rose to SEK 94m (53). Net gains and losses on financial items decreased to SEK -91m (239). The change between quarters was attributable to factors including negative revaluation effects of derivatives in Group Treasury. Expenses decreased during the quarter to SEK 2 070m (2 569), due to decreased extraordinary expenses relating to Swedbank’s reorganisation, which were lower in the third quarter than in the second quarter. The decrease was partly offset by the settlement with DFS in the third quarter. Credit impairments were net positive and amounted to SEK -408m (128), of which SEK -421m (116) was attributable to Entercard, where an agreement to sell non-performing loans resulted in a revaluation in the order of SEK -543m.

Per 30 September 2026 the discount rate used to calculate the closing pension obligation was 4.41 per cent, compared with 4.05 per cent per 31 December 2025. The Swedish inflation assumption was 1.92 per cent compared with 1.60 per cent per 31 December 2025.

In total, on 30 September 2026 the fair value of plan assets exceeded the obligation for funded defined benefit pension plans by SEK 4 661m, therefore the funded plans are presented as an asset. For January – September 2026 an exchange rate difference of SEK 3 280m (-3 236) was recognised for the Group's foreign net investments in subsidiaries. The gain related to subsidiaries mainly arose because the Swedish krona weakened against the euro during the period. In addition, an exchange rate difference of SEK 67m (-18) for the Group's foreign net investments in associates and joint ventures is included in Share of other comprehensive income of associates and joint ventures. The total gain of SEK 3 347m is not taxable. Most of the Group's foreign net investments are hedged against currency risk resulting in a loss after tax of SEK -2 168m (2 187) for the hedging instruments.

Swedbank – Interim report Third quarter│2026│22 Note 1 Accounting policies The interim report has been prepared in accordance with IAS 34 Interim Financial Reporting. The condensed consolidated financial statements have also been prepared in accordance with the recommendations and statements of the Swedish Corporate Reporting Board, the Annual Accounts Act for Credit Institutions and Securities Companies and the directives of the Swedish Financial Supervisory Authority (SFSA). The Parent Company report has been prepared in accordance with the Annual Accounts Act for Credit Institutions and Securities Companies, the directives of the SFSA and recommendation RFR 2 of the Swedish Corporate Reporting Board. The financial statements are presented in Swedish kronor and all figures are rounded to millions of kronor (SEKm) unless otherwise indicated. No adjustments for rounding are made, therefore summation differences may occur. The accounting policies applied in the interim report conform to those applied in the Annual Report 2025, which was prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS accounting standards) as adopted by the European Union and interpretations thereof. Compared to the Annual Report 2025, the accounting policies below are also applied. Amendments to the Classification and Measurement of Financial Instruments (IFRS 9 and IFRS 7) On 1 January 2026, the Group adopted the IASB’s Amendments to the Classification and Measurement of Financial Instruments (IFRS 9 and IFRS 7), which mainly impacts how the Group assesses the contractual cash flows of a financial asset that includes contingent features and establishes new related disclosure requirements. The amendments are applied prospectively, and the adoption does not have any impact on the Group’s financial position, results, cash flows or capital adequacy. Additional disclosures will be presented in the Annual Report 2026. Assets held for sale Assets are classified as held for sale and are presented in a separate line in the balance sheet if the carrying amount will be recovered primarily through a sale. The date of such classification is when the following criteria are met: a formal decision at the appropriate level has been taken, the assets are available for immediate sale in their current condition, and it is highly probable that a sale will take place within one year. Financial instruments continue to be measured under IFRS 9 while non-financial assets are held at the lower of carrying amount and fair value. Other changes in accounting regulations Other amended regulations that are applicable from 1 January 2026 did not have a significant impact on the Group’s financial position, results, cash flows, disclosures or capital adequacy. Note 2 Critical accounting estimates Presentation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with IFRS requires the executive management to make judgments and estimates that affect the recognised amounts of assets, liabilities and disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities as of the reporting date as well as the recognised income and expenses during the reporting period. The executive management continuously evaluates these judgments and estimates, including assessing control over investment funds, the fair value of financial instruments, provisions for credit impairment, impairment testing of goodwill, provisions and contingent liabilities, defined benefit pension provisions, insurance contracts and deferred taxes. Post-model expert credit adjustments to the credit impairment provisions continue to be necessary, given the geopolitical and economic uncertainties. Further information is provided in Note 10. Beyond this, there have been no significant changes to the basis upon which the critical accounting judgments and estimates have been determined compared with 31 December 2025.

Swedbank – Interim report Third quarter│2026│25 Operating segments accounting policies The operating segment report is based on Swedbank’s accounting policies, organisation and management accounts. Market-based transfer prices are applied between operating segments, while all expenses for Group functions and Group staffs are transfer priced at cost to the operating segments. Cross-border transfer pricing is applied according to OECD transfer pricing guidelines. The Group’s equity attributable to shareholders is allocated to each operating segment based on capital adequacy rules and estimated capital requirements based on the bank’s Internal Capital Adequacy Assessment Process (ICAAP). The return on allocated equity for the operating segments is calculated based on profit for the period attributable to the shareholders for the operating segment, in relation to average monthly allocated equity for the operating segment. For periods shorter than one year the key ratio is annualised. From the second quarter 2026, PayEx is evaluated and managed separately and constitutes an own operating segment. The new operating segment does not meet the criteria for separate reporting and is therefore included in Group Functions and Other. Up to and including the first quarter 2026, PayEx was reported within the business areas Swedish Banking and Corporates & Institutions. Comparative figures have been restated. During the quarter, the name of the operating segment Premium and Private Banking was changed to Wealth Management. During the third quarter of 2026, customers were reallocated from Swedish Banking to Wealth Management. Comparative figures have been restated accordingly.

Measurement of 12-month and lifetime expected credit losses Geopolitical uncertainty remains elevated, particularly related to the war in the Middle East, and therefore, post-model expert credit adjustments continue to be deemed relevant. Post-model expert credit adjustments relate to corporate customer sectors assessed as to be more vulnerable and where individual borrowers are continuously monitored – Property management, Agriculture, forestry, fishing, Manufacturing, Construction and Transportation. Post-model expert credit adjustments amounted to SEK 93m (SEK 161m at 30 June 2026, SEK 131m at 31 December 2025) and are allocated as SEK 48m in stage 1 and SEK 46m in stage 2 (SEK 61m in stage 1 and SEK 100m in stage 2 at 30 June 2026, SEK 93m in stage 1 and SEK 37m in stage 2 at 31 December 2025).

Swedbank – Interim report Third quarter│2026│32 The tables below show the quantitative thresholds used by the Group for assessing a significant increase in credit risk, namely: • Changes in the 12-month PD and internal risk rating grades, which have been applied for the portfolio of loans originated before 1 January 2018. For instance, for exposures originated with risk grades 0 to 5, a downgrade by 1 grade from initial recognition is assessed as a significant change in credit risk. Alternatively, for exposures originated with risk grades 18 to 21, a downgrade by 5 to 8 grades from initial recognition is considered significant. Internal risk ratings are assigned according to the risk management framework outlined in Note G3 Risks in the Annual Report 2025. • Changes in the lifetime PD, which have been applied for the portfolio of loans originated on or after 1 January 2018. For instance, for exposures originated with risk grades 0 to 5, a 50 per cent increase in the lifetime PD from initial recognition is assessed as a significant change in credit risk. Alternatively, for exposures originated with risk grades 18 to 21, an increase of 200-300 per cent from initial recognition is considered significant except for Swedish mortgages where an absolute 12-month PD threshold is also applied. These limits reflect a lower sensitivity to change in the low-risk end of the risk scale and a higher sensitivity to change in the high-risk end of the scale. The Group has performed a sensitivity analysis on how credit impairment provisions would change if thresholds applied were increased or decreased. A lower threshold would increase the number of loans that have migrated from Stage 1 to Stage 2 and also increase the estimated credit impairment provisions. A higher threshold would have the opposite effect. The tables below disclose the impacts of this sensitivity analysis on the credit impairment provisions. Positive amounts represent higher credit impairment provisions that would be recognised. Significant increase in credit risk - financial instruments with initial recognition before 1 January 2018 Significant increase in credit risk - financial instruments with initial recognition on or after 1 January 2018

Swedbank – Interim report Third quarter│2026│33 Incorporation of forward-looking macroeconomic scenarios The forecasts are based on Swedbank Economic Outlook published on 25 August 2026 and the baseline scenario was updated by Swedbank Macro Research as of 10 September 2026. The baseline scenario, with an assigned probability weight of 66.6 per cent, is aligned with the published outlook and incorporates updated observed outcome and data points. The alternative scenarios are aligned with the updated baseline scenario, with probability weights of 16.7 per cent assigned to both the upside and downside scenario. The table below sets out the key assumptions of the scenarios at 30 September 2026. 30 September 2026 Positive scenario Baseline scenario Negative scenario 2026 2027 2028 2026 2027 2028 2026 2027 2028 Sweden GDP (annual % change) 2.5 2.8 2.2 2.5 2.0 1.9 1.4 -5.6 0.5 Unemployment (annual %) 8.5 7.8 7.1 8.5 8.0 7.5 8.7 10.2 10.7 House prices (annual % change) 3.7 3.4 2.6 3.6 3.0 2.0 2.7 -7.4 -1.0 Stibor 3m (%) 2.10 2.52 2.56 2.10 2.40 2.40 1.89 0.52 0.23 Estonia GDP (annual % change) 2.4 4.1 2.4 2.2 2.5 2.4 0.6 -9.2 -1.0 Unemployment (annual %) 6.7 5.9 5.5 6.7 6.3 5.9 6.9 10.8 15.6 House prices (annual % change) 5.2 6.0 5.4 5.2 3.4 4.9 2.8 -21.5 -16.8 CPI (annual % change) 3.4 2.8 2.5 3.4 2.7 2.2 3.3 0.5 0.5 Latvia GDP (annual % change) 2.6 3.2 2.6 2.5 2.3 2.5 1.7 -5.1 0.4 Unemployment (annual %) 6.9 6.4 6.4 6.9 6.6 6.6 7.1 9.7 14.3 House prices (annual % change) 7.9 7.8 5.6 7.6 6.0 6.0 3.8 -22.1 -11.2 CPI (annual % change) 3.4 3.2 2.8 3.4 3.2 2.7 3.4 1.2 1.9 Lithuania GDP (annual % change) 3.1 3.2 2.6 3.0 2.3 2.5 1.6 -7.6 0.0 Unemployment (annual %) 6.6 6.6 6.6 6.7 6.9 6.9 7.0 11.7 14.9 House prices (annual % change) 13.0 7.5 4.3 12.8 5.6 4.6 8.1 -21.3 -8.6 CPI (annual % change) 5.2 2.6 2.7 5.1 2.5 2.5 5.1 0.8 1.8 Global indicators US GDP (annual %) 2.2 2.6 2.3 2.2 2.1 2.0 1.7 -2.7 -0.4 EU GDP (annual %) 1.0 2.3 1.4 0.9 1.3 1.4 0.5 -4.5 -1.0 Brent Crude Oil (USD/Barrel) 86.2 77.0 73.4 86.4 77.8 73.6 84.0 49.6 55.9 Euribor 6m (%) 2.10 2.52 2.56 2.10 2.40 2.40 1.89 0.52 0.23 The global economy has remained resilient despite the ongoing tensions in the Middle East. Oil prices remain highly volatile, and uncertainty is elevated. The US economy continues to grow at a solid pace, with GDP expanding by just over 2%, driven primarily by AI-related investment and strong household consumption. In the euro area, economic activity has been somewhat stronger than expected, and GDP is projected to increase by just under 1.5% next year, supported by domestic demand. At the same time, inflation risks becoming more persistent, which is expected to prompt further policy rate hikes by the ECB. In contrast, the Federal Reserve is expected to refrain from additional rate increases, as policy rates are already at a higher level. The recovery in the Swedish economy continues, with GDP growth projected to average around 2% per year over the 2026-2028 period. After several years in which exports were the primary driver of growth, domestic demand is now expected to make a larger contribution to economic expansion. Expansionary fiscal policy is providing significant support to growth this year, but fiscal policy is expected to become more restrictive next year, regardless of the composition of the government after the election. Rising inflation and a clearer improvement in economic activity are expected to lead the Riksbank to begin normalising monetary policy towards the end of the year. Growth in the Baltic economies is also strengthening, primarily as a result of stronger domestic demand supported by fiscal stimulus measures. Exports are likewise expected to contribute positively to growth. In all three countries, GDP is forecast to increase by around 2.5% per year in 2027 and 2028. This implies a moderation of growth in Lithuania, while growth is set to pick up in Estonia following several years of weak performance. Latvia is forecast to maintain steady and stable growth throughout the forecast horizon.

The Lithuanian bank tax was temporary for the period May 2023 - December 2025. The temporary Latvian bank tax applies for the years 2025-2027. The tax rate is 60 per cent and is applied to the part of the period's adjusted net interest income which exceeds the average net interest income for the years 2018-2022 by more than 50 per cent. The design of the legislation enables a discount on the bank tax provided certain growth in the lending portfolio. From 31 October 2025, Swedish Central Bank has introduced a requirement for banks to hold interest-free deposits with the Swedish Central Bank. The requirement has been introduced to strengthen Swedish Central Bank’s equity. The size of the deposit is revalued annually after Swedish Central Bank’s annual financial statements have been finalised. Swedbank recognises the present value of the lost interest income for the deposit as an expense in its entirety when Swedish Central Bank receives the interest-free deposit. Based on decision from the Swedish Central Bank, deposit of SEK 5.4bn was made in the second quarter.

Swedbank – Interim report Third quarter│2026│43 Note 21 Financial instruments recognised at fair value The determination of fair value, the valuation hierarchy and the valuation process for fair value measurements in Level 3 are described in the Annual Report 2025, note G46 Fair value of financial instruments. The financial instruments are distributed in three levels depending on the degree of observable market data in the valuation and activity in the market. • Level 1: Unadjusted quoted price on an active market. • Level 2: Adjusted quoted price or valuation model with valuation parameters derived from an active market. • Level 3: Valuation model where significant valuation parameters are non-observable and based on internal assumptions. The following tables present fair values of financial instruments recognised at fair value split between the three valuation hierarchy levels. Transfers between levels are reflected as per the fair value at closing day. There were no transfers of financial instruments between valuation levels 1 and 2 during the period. Financial instruments are transferred to or from level 3 depending on whether the internal assumptions have changed in significance to the valuation. Level 3 mainly comprises strategic unlisted shares. These include holdings in VISA Inc. C shares, which are subject to selling restrictions until June 2028 and under certain conditions may have to be returned. Liquid
Page 44
Swedbank – Interim report Third quarter│2026│44 quotes are not available for these shares, therefore the fair value is established with significant elements of Swedbank’s own internal assumptions. The carrying amount of the holdings in Visa Inc. C amounted as per 30 September 2026 to SEK 152m (SEK 127m 31 December 2025). In the Group’s insurance operations, fund units are held in which the customers have chosen to invest their insurance savings. The holdings are reported in the balance sheet as financial assets where the customers bear the investment risk and are normally measured at fair value according to level 1, because the units are traded in an active market. The Group’s obligations to insurance savers are reported as financial liabilities where the customers bear the investment risk because it is the customers who bear the entire market value change of the assets.

Swedbank – Interim report Third quarter│2026│45 Note 23 Offsetting financial assets and liabilities The tables below present recognised financial instruments that have been offset in the balance sheet under IAS 32 and those that are subject to legally enforceable master netting or similar agreements but do not qualify for offset. Such financial instruments relate to derivatives, repurchase and reverse repurchase agreements, securities settlements, securities borrowing and lending transactions. Collateral amounts represent financial instruments or cash collateral received or pledged for transactions that are subject to a legally enforceable master netting or similar agreements and which allow for the netting of obligations against the counterparty in the event of a default. Collateral amounts are limited to the amount of the related instruments presented in the balance sheet; therefore any over-collateralisation is not included. Amounts that are not offset in the balance sheet are presented as a reduction to the financial assets or liabilities in order to derive net asset and net liability exposure.

Note 24 Assets held for sale Since the first quarter 2026, Entercard’s consumer loan portfolio has been presented on the balance sheet as Assets held for sale. During the third quarter 2026, an agreement was signed for the sale of non-performing loans within the consumer loan portfolio. The contractual amount was approximately SEK 4bn, resulting in a positive revaluation effect on the Group's credit impairments of SEK 543m. The final outcome will be determined upon completion of the transaction, which is expected to occur during the fourth quarter 2026, subject to customary closing conditions and regulatory approvals. Subsequent to the end of the third quarter, an agreement was also signed for the sale of the remaining part of the consumer loan portfolio. The contractual amount was approximately SEK 7bn, see Events after the period. The consumer loan portfolio is part of the operating segment Entercard, which is presented within Group Functions and Other. Interest is calculated using the effective interest rate method and recognised in the income statement as Net interest income. Credit impairments are recognised in the income statement as Credit impairments.

Swedbank – Interim report Third quarter│2026│47 On 3 November 2025, Swedbank acquired all shares in Stabelo Group AB for cash consideration of SEK 349m. Stabelo Group AB owns the following subsidiaries: Stabelo AB, Stabelo Asset Management AB, Stabelo Fund 1 and Stabelo Fund 2. The acquisition is mainly due to accessing a complementary brand and new channels for mortgages, thereby enabling Swedbank to reach more customers. The recognised goodwill represents expected synergies. If the financial performance of the acquisition exceeds certain profitability measures, such as return on equity, during 2026-2028, a contingent consideration will be paid. At the acquisition date, the consideration was valued at SEK 16m, which corresponds to the probability-weighted average value that the company achieves relevant profitability levels. The intention with the contingent consideration is to share possible excess profitability with the seller. The liability is recognised as Other liabilities and provisions. The cash and cash equivalent in the acquired company amounted to SEK 0m. Acquisition-related expenses amounting to SEK 17m have been reported as Other general administrative expenses in the income statement. From the acquisition date Stabelo contributed with SEK 11m in income and with SEK -8m to the profit for the period after tax.

Swedbank – Interim report Third quarter│2026│50 Note 27 Internal capital requirement This note provides information on the internal capital assessment according to chapter 8, section 4 of the SFSA’s regulation on prudential requirements and capital buffers (2014:12). The internal capital assessment is published in the interim report according to chapter 8, section 4 of the SFSA’s regulation and general advice on annual reports from credit institutions and investment firms (2008:25). A bank must identify, measure and manage the risks with which its activities are associated and have sufficient capital to cover these risks. The purpose of the Internal Capital Adequacy Assessment Process (ICAAP) is to ensure that the bank is sufficiently capitalised to cover its risks and to conduct and develop its business activities. Swedbank applies its own models and processes to evaluate its capital need for all relevant risks. The models that serve as a basis for the internal capital assessment evaluate the need for economic capital over a one-year horizon at a 99.9 per cent confidence level for each type of risk. Diversification effects between various types of risks are not taken into account in the calculation of economic capital. As a complement to the economic capital calculation, scenario-based simulations and stress tests are conducted at least once a year. The analyses provide an overview of the most important risks Swedbank is exposed to by quantifying their impact on the income statement and balance sheet as well as the own funds and risk-weighted assets. The purpose is to ensure efficient use of capital. This methodology serves as a basis of proactive risk and capital management. As of 30 September 2026, the internal capital assessment for Swedbank’s consolidated situation amounted to SEK 68.9bn (SEK 64.9bn as of 31 December 2025). Swedbank’s internal capital assessment using its own models is not comparable with the estimated capital requirement that is decided by the SFSA. In addition to what is stated in this interim report, risk management and capital adequacy according to the Basel III framework are described in more detail in Swedbank’s Annual report 2025 as well as in Swedbank’s yearly Risk Management and Capital Adequacy Report, available on http://www.swedbank.com. Note 28 Risks and uncertainties In January 2026, the bank was informed that the Department of Justice (DoJ) had concluded its investigation without enforcement. In July 2026, Swedbank reached a settlement with the New York State Department of Financial Services (DFS), resulting in a payment of USD 50 million. As a result, all regulatory investigations and the legal uncertainty related to these historical shortcomings have now been concluded. Apart from this, the Group’s overall risk profile remains unchanged in all material respects compared with the description in the Annual Report 2025. Swedbank’s earnings are affected by developments in the global marketplace and geopolitical factors beyond its control. Macroeconomic factors such as GDP growth, asset prices and unemployment, as well as changes in interest rates, equity prices and exchange rates, influence financial performance. The rapid advancement of artificial intelligence also introduces security-related risks, as vulnerabilities may be exploited more rapidly and at greater scale as AI adoption becomes increasingly widespread. Swedbank is subject to various laws and regulations in the countries where the Group operates and is supervised by regulatory authorities in those jurisdictions. As part of ongoing supervisory activities, regulators regularly raise inquiries and conduct reviews of the bank’s operations. Such reviews may result in criticism, fines or other sanctions. In addition, changes in legislation, as well as changes in the interpretation and application of laws and regulations, may expose the Group to additional risks.

Swedbank – Interim report Third quarter│2026│58 Alternative performance measures Swedbank prepares its financial statements in accordance with IFRS as adopted by the EU, as set out in Note 1. The interim report includes a number of alternative performance measures (APM), which exclude certain items that management believes are not representative of the underlying/ongoing performance of the business. Therefore, the alternative performance measures provide more comparative information between periods. These measures are not directly regulated by IFRS Accounting Standards. Management believes that inclusion of these measures provides more information to the readers that enable comparability between periods. They are also used by Group Management for internal governance and operating segment performance management purposes. For periods shorter than one year, the key figure is annualised. Allocated equity Allocated equity is the operating segment’s equity measure. The Group’s equity attributable to shareholders is allocated to each operating segment based on capital adequacy rules and estimated capital requirements based on the bank’s internal Capital Adequacy Assessment Process (ICAAP). The allocated equity amounts per operating segment are reconciled to the Group Total equity, the nearest IFRS measure, in Note 4. Cost/Income ratio adjusted Total expenses, excluding extraordinary costs specified in the adjustment table on pages 7 and 8, in relation to total income. Total expenses excluding extraordinary costs is reconciled to Total expenses, the nearest IFRS measure, on pages 7 and 8. Income statement adjusted Amounts related to expenses are presented excluding extraordinary costs specified in the adjustment table on pages 7 and 8. The amounts are reconciled to the relevant IFRS income statement lines on pages 7 and 8. Net interest margin Calculated as Net interest income, annualised, in relation to average total assets excluding trading related assets. The average is calculated using month-end figures 1, including the prior year end. The key figure expresses the difference, the margin, between the percentage return on non-trading assets and the costs of financing. The nearest IFRS measure is Net interest income and can be reconciled in Note 5. Return on allocated equity Calculated based on profit for the period attributable to the shareholders for the operating segment, annualised, in relation to average allocated equity for the operating segment. The average is calculated using month-end figures 1, including the prior year end. The allocated equity amounts per operating segment are reconciled to the Group Total equity, the nearest IFRS measure, in Note 4. Return on equity adjusted Calculated based on profit for the period (annualised) attributable to the shareholders, excluding extraordinary costs specified in the adjustment table on pages 7 and 8, in relation to average equity attributable to shareholders’ of the parent company. The average is calculated using month-end figures1, including the prior year end. Profit for the period attributable to shareholders, excluding extraordinary costs specified in the adjustment table on pages 7 and 8, is reconciled to Profit for the period allocated to shareholders, the nearest IFRS measure, on pages 7 and 8.

Review report To the Board of Directors of Swedbank AB (publ) registration no. 502017-7753 Introduction We have reviewed the condensed interim financial information (interim report) of Swedbank AB (publ) as of 30 September 2026 and the nine-month period then ended. The Board of Directors and the CEO are responsible for the preparation and presentation of the interim financial information in accordance with IAS 34 and the Annual Accounts Act for credit institutions and securities companies. Our responsibility is to express a conclusion on this interim report based on our review. Scope of Review We conducted our review in accordance with the International Standard on Review Engagements ISRE 2410, Review of Interim Report Performed by the Independent Auditor of the Entity. A review consists of making inquiries, primarily of persons responsible for financial and accounting matters, and applying analytical and other review procedures. A review is substantially less in scope than an audit conducted in accordance with International Standards on Auditing, ISA, and other generally accepted auditing standards in Sweden. The procedures performed in a review do not enable us to obtain assurance that we would become aware of all significant matters that might be identified in an audit. Accordingly, we do not express an audit opinion. Conclusion Based on our review, nothing has come to our attention that causes us to believe that the interim report is not prepared, in all material respects, in accordance with IAS 34 and the Annual Accounts Act for credit institutions and securities companies, regarding the Group, and with the Annual Accounts Act for credit institutions and securities companies, regarding the Parent Company.
