For an overview of the main events that occurred during the first six months of 2026 and their impact on the unaudited Condensed Interim Consolidated Financial Statements as at 30 June 2026 please refer to Note 2 "Significant events and transactions" of the Condensed Interim Consolidated Financial Statements attached hereto and to the Press Releases comprising the earnings of Q1 and Q2 2026, issued and available on Euronext's website (https://www.euronext.com) as from 19 May 2026 and 30 July 2026 respectively.

Risks and uncertaintiesIn the 2025 Universal Registration Document issued by Euronext N.V. on 27 March 2026, Euronext has described certain risks and risk factors, whose occurrence could have a material adverse effect on the Group's financial position and results. Those risk categories and risk factors can be found in Chapter 2 (pages 52 to 75) of the 2025 Universal Registration Document.
During the first six-months of 2026, these risk categories and risk factors did not substantially change. During the first six months of 2026, Euronext included the 'Innovation and Disruption Risk" for the close monitoring of its evolution and remediating actions. Innovation and Disruption Risk seeks to highlight the potential threat faced by the Group in light of rapidly evolving technology and potential delayed or misjudged investments. Euronext is working to adapt to new operational and competitive environments in order to remain relevant and ensure a robust business model also by capturing opportunities associated with these technologies. Euronext actively manages all impacts that it is aware of and analyses potential new risks on an ongoing basis.
For the second half-year of 2026, Euronext currently considers the risk categories and risk factors as described in the 2025 Universal Registration Document to be applicable. Additional risks beyond those described in the 2025 Universal Registration Document or the one above not known to Euronext, or currently believed not to be material, could later turn out to have a material impact on Euronext's business or financial position.

Significant events and transactions
The following significant events and transactions have occurred during the six-months period ended 30 June 2026.
Update on the purchase price allocation related to the Athens Exchange Group acquisition
During the first six months of 2026, the Group progressed on the purchase price allocation of the Athens Exchange Group that the Group had acquired on 24 November 2025. The Group identified €55.4 million of customer relationships as part of the purchase price allocation. In addition, a fair value step-up adjustment of €5.0 million was recognised for the 21% investment in associate HenEx that was included in the acquisition. After recognition of the proportional non-controlling interest impact, these amounts were subsequently offset in goodwill (see Notes 6 and 16).
Migration of open interest positions in Nasdaq's Nordic power futures business
On 19 March 2026, the Group announced the successful launch of Euronext Nord Pool Power Futures in the Nordics and Baltics, following the migration of 100% of the open interest positions in Nasdaq's Nordic power futures business to Euronext Clearing, that the Group acquired on 23 June 2025. All Nordic and Baltic contracts are now available for trading on Optiq®, Euronext's trading platform. Trading of power futures will be operated from Euronext Amsterdam and will be cleared through Euronext Clearing.
Following the migration, the Group paid €76.6 million of the contingent consideration that was recognised on acquisition. The remaining amount, estimated at €22.7 million as per 30 June 2026, will be payable in March 2027 depending on specified future conditions. The Group has chosen to apply the liability approach that follows IFRIC 1 principles for recognition of the contingent consideration liability, whereby subsequent changes in the liability are adjusted against the carrying amount of the related asset.
Acquisition of additional interest in associate HenEx
On 2 February 2026, the Group acquired an additional 20% stake in associate HenEx at consideration of €7.3 million. Total interest in associate HenEx amounted to 41% as per 30 June 2026 (see Note 5).
Sale of interest in Boursa Kuwait Securities Co.
During the first six months of 2026, the Group sold its 0.78% interest in Boursa Kuwait Securities Co. at proceeds of €11.6 million. As this investment was classified as a financial asset at fair value through other comprehensive income, the accumulated fair value result was transferred within equity to retained earnings.
Revaluation of direct- and indirect stakes in Euroclear S.A./N.V.
For the determination of fair value of its direct and indirect investments in Euroclear S.A./N.V., the Group applied a weighted approach of the Gordon Growth model and recent observed market transactions. This valuation method resulted in an increase in fair value of Euronext S.A./N.V.'s direct- and indirect investments of €33.8 million as per 30 June 2026. This revaluation was recognised in Other Comprehensive Income (see Note 20).
Repayment of Senior Unsecured Note #3
On 18 May 2026, the Group repaid the outstanding amount of €385 million related to Senior Unsecured Note #3. The Bond had a five year maturity, with an annual coupon of 0.125% (see Note 19).
Completion of Share Repurchase Programme of €250 million
On 29 January 2026, Euronext announced the completion of the €250 million share repurchase programme. Between 18 November 2025 and 27 January 2026, 1,967,993 shares, or approximately 1.90% of Euronext's share capital, were repurchased at an average price of €127.03 per share. Following the completion of this repurchase programme, and the shareholders' approval gained at the Annual General Meeting on 20 May 2026, the 1,967,993 shares that were repurchased under the programme were cancelled on 23 July 2026.
Long-Term Incentive Plan 2026
On 22 May 2026, a Long-Term Incentive plan ("LTI 2026") was established under the revised Remuneration Policy that was approved by the AGM in May 2021. The LTI cliff vests after 3 years whereby performance criteria will impact the actual number of shares at vesting date. The share price for this grant at grant date was €150.20 and 147,007 Restricted Stock Units ("RSU's") were granted. The total share-based payment expense at the vesting date in 2029 is estimated to be €19.6 million. As from the grant date, compensation expense recorded for this LTI 2026 plan amounted to €0.6 million in the income statement for the six months period ended 30 June 2026.

Basis of preparation, accounting policies and significant judgments
Basis of preparation
The Group has prepared these Condensed Interim Consolidated Financial Statements in accordance with International Accounting Standard ("IAS") 34, Interim Financial Reporting, as adopted by the European Union. These Condensed Interim Consolidated Financial Statements should be read in conjunction with the Group's Consolidated Financial Statements as of and for the fiscal year ended 31 December 2025, which were prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards ("IFRS") as adopted by the European Union ("EU"). They do not include all of the information required for a complete set of financial statements prepared in accordance with IFRS Accounting Standards. However, selected explanatory notes are included to explain events and transactions that are significant to an understanding of the changes in the Group's financial position and performance since the last annual financial statements.
Accounting policies and significant judgments
The principal accounting policies and critical accounting estimates and judgments applied in the preparation of these Condensed Interim Consolidated Financial Statements are consistent with those described in the Consolidated Financial Statements as of and for the year ended 31 December 2025, except for (i) the adoption of new and amended standards effective as of 1 January 2026 (see below), and (ii) taxes on income in the interim periods which are accrued using the tax rate that would be applicable to expected total annual earnings in each tax jurisdiction.
New IFRS standards, amendments and interpretations
A number of new or amended standards became applicable for the current reporting period, but did not have a material impact on the Group's Condensed Interim Consolidated Financial Statements:
Amendments to IFRS 9 and IFRS 7 - 'Classification and Measurement of Financial Instruments'
Amendments to IFRS 9 and IFRS 7 - 'Contracts Referencing Nature-dependent Electricity'
Annual improvements to IFRS Accounting Standards - 'Volume 11'
Impact of standards issued but not yet effective
A number of new standards and amendments to standards are effective for annual periods beginning after 1 January 2026, which the Group has not applied in preparing these Condensed Interim Consolidated Financial Statements.
In the Consolidated Financial Statements of the Group as of and for the year ended 31 December 2025, the (potential) impact for a number of these new standards and amendments were mentioned. No updates on these mentioned new standards and amendments are to be reported in these Condensed Interim Consolidated Financial Statements.

The Group's power trading revenue is closely correlated to seasonal fluctuations caused by higher energy demands in winter versus lower energy demands in summer. The Group's other revenue streams are not subject to significant seasonality patterns, except that there are generally lower trading volumes and listing admissions during the summer period. Trading volumes are subject to market volatility.

The valuation of the net identifiable assets of Admincontrol in 2025, included a €7.2 million 'haircut' adjustment on contract liabilities. This fair value adjustment was partially released as a non-underlying item in Q4 2025. The remainder was released in 2026.
The total integration- and double run costs amounted to €15.5 million (2025: €12.1 million). These cost are attributable to significant projects and activities to integrate the acquired businesses with those of the Group.
Amortisation of intangible assets that were recorded as a result of acquisitions amounted to €47.6 million (2025: €40.4 million).
The acquisition costs of €0.6 million (2025: €3.2 million), mainly related to costs incurred during the first six months of 2026 for acquisitions that would increase the perimeter of the Group.
After the determination that an item is taxable, the tax impact of the Group's non-underlying items of the individual entities of the Group to which the non-underlying items relate, is computed based on the tax rates applicable to the respective territories in which the entity operates.
The nature and composition of the non-underlying items are explained in the material accounting policies section in Note 3 of the Group's annual consolidated financial statements for the year ended 31 December 2025. The Group uses its judgment to classify items as non-underlying. The determination of non-underlying items is not measured under EU-IFRS and should be considered in addition to, and not as a substitute for IFRS measures.

(a) Following the update on the purchase price allocation related to the acquisition of Athex Group (see Note 6), the Group adjusted the comparative balance of 'Goodwill' downwards by €35.8 million and the comparative balance of 'Customer Relations' upwards by €55.4 million.
During the first six months of 2026, the increase in internally developed software investments is primarily related to projects initiated as part of the Strategic Plan "Innovate for Growth 2027", as well as the ongoing pan-Europeanisation of Euronext CSDs, and further expansion of clearing activities by Euronext Clearing.
Furthermore, no indicators of impairment of goodwill and other intangible assets were identified and as such no detailed impairment test was performed.

Earnings per Share (EPS)
Earnings per share is presented on four bases: (i) basic earnings per share, (ii) diluted earnings per share, (iii) 'underlying' basic earnings per share and (iv) 'underlying' diluted earnings per share.
Basic earnings per share is calculated by dividing the profit for the period attributable to the shareholders of the Company by the weighted average number of ordinary shares outstanding for the period.
The calculation of 'underlying' basic earnings per share excludes non-underlying items, as disclosed in Note 11, from the profit for the period attributable to the shareholders of the Company.
Diluted earnings per share is calculated by dividing the diluted profit for the period attributable to the shareholders of the Company by the weighted average number of ordinary shares outstanding for the period plus the weighted average number of ordinary shares that would be issued on conversion of all the dilutive potential ordinary shares into ordinary shares.
The calculation of 'underlying' diluted earnings per share excludes non-underlying items, as disclosed in Note 11, from the dilutive profit for the period attributable to the shareholders of the Company.
The following table reflects the income and share data used in the basic and diluted EPS calculations and 'underlying' basic and diluted EPS calculations:

(a) The weighted average number of shares takes into account the weighted average effect of changes in treasury shares during the year.
The impact of share plans is determined by the number of shares that could have been acquired at fair value (determined as the average quarterly market price of Euronext's shares) based on the fair value (measured in accordance with IFRS 2) of any services to be supplied to Euronext in the future under these plans.
The convertible bonds are considered to be potential ordinary shares and have been included in the calculation of diluted earnings per share as of 30 June 2026. A maximum conversion in future would increase the number of shares by 2,223,206 based on the conversion price. In the comparative period calculation, the weighted number of assumed converted shares amounted to 393,053 as this was only one month since the issue date.
There have been no other transactions involving ordinary shares or potential ordinary shares between the reporting date and the date of authorisation of these financial statements.

Fair value measurements using quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (level 1)
The listed equity securities were related to the investment in Boursa Kuwait Securities Co. The Group has disposed its 0.78% interest in this equity investment during the first six months of 2026.
The quoted debt instruments primarily relate to investments in listed bonds held by Euronext Securities Copenhagen.
The quoted debt instruments of CCP clearing business represent an investment portfolio in predominantly government bonds funded by the margins and default funds deposited by members of the CCP clearing business.
The derivative instruments of CCP clearing business comprise open transactions not settled at the reporting date on the derivatives market in which Euronext Clearing operates as a central counterparty. The other instruments of CCP clearing business include clearing member trading balances for equity and debt instruments that are marked to market on a daily basis.
Investments in funds are solely composed of money market funds which are redeemed within a three-month cycle after acquisition and have contractual cash flows that do not represent solely payments of principal and interest.
Fair values of the instruments mentioned above are determined by reference to published price quotations in an active market.
-
Fair value measurements using observable market data, directly or indirectly (level 2)
Foreign exchange spot transactions comprises agreements between two parties to buy one currency against selling another currency at an agreed price for settlement on the spot date. Fair value is based on the foreign exchange rates at the balance sheet date.

Valuation process
Concerning the valuation process for fair value measurement categorised within level 3 of the fair value hierarchy, the Group's central treasury department collects and validates the available level 3 inputs and performs the valuation according to the Group's valuation methodology for each reporting period. The fair value estimates are discussed with-, and challenged by the Group Finance Director and the Chief Financial Officer. Periodically the values of investments categorized in "level 3" are validated by staff with extensive knowledge of the industry in which the invested companies operate. Although valuation techniques are applied consistently as a principle, Management, upon advice from the Group's valuation experts, may decide to replace a valuation technique if such a change would improve the quality or the reliability of the valuation process.
Unlisted equity securities in Euroclear S.A./N.V. and Sicovam Holding S.A.
For measuring fair value of its long-term investments in unlisted equity securities in Euroclear S.A/N.V. and Sicovam Holding S.A., the Group applied a weighted approach, using both the Gordon Growth Model (with return on equity and expected dividend growth rate as key non-observable parameters) and recent observed market transactions.
As from 2023, the high interest rates environment led to a sharp increase of net interest earnings at Euroclear, which was predominantly driven by interests linked to frozen assets as a result of Russian sanctions and countermeasures. The European Commission contemplated various options to use the profits generated by sanctioned amounts held by financial institutions, including Euroclear, for the financing of Ukraine's reconstruction.
Since considerable uncertainties persisted, Euroclear considered it necessary to separate the estimated sanction related earnings from the 'underlying' financial results when assessing the company's performance and resources. For this reason, the Group uses the 'underlying' financial results published by Euroclear (i.e. excluding Russian sanctions related assets/earnings), as an input for its primary valuation technique.
In addition, for measuring the fair value of Sicovam Holding S.A, the Group applied a holding discount as an unobservable input for which a sensitivity impact of +10%/(-10%) would amount to a decrease or (increase) of €14.0 million in the fair value (31 December 2025:
€13.0 million).
The key assumptions used in the Gordon Growth Model valuation model are shown in the tables below. The sensitivity analysis shows the impact on fair value using the most favorable combination (increase), or least favorable combination (decrease) of the unobservable inputs per investment in unlisted equity securities.

Contingent consideration payable
The contingent consideration payable of €1.2 million relates to the acquisition of Substantive Research and is estimated based on a multiple of total revenue. Management considers the impact of changes of these unobservable inputs not material for the total level 3 portfolio.
Combined derivative instrument
The combined derivative instrument relates to the acquisition of GRSS and combines the Group's right to acquire all of the remaining shares of the other minority shareholders and the obligation to compensate for any variance between a third party exercise price of the option (normalized EBITDA x multiple) and a lower actual third party price offered. The fair value of this derivative liability is estimated at €2.3 million, based on a multiple of earnings and forecasted EBITDA.
Convertible loan
In February 2026, the Group provided an unsecured, subordinated convertible loan of €3.2 million to EuroCTP B.V. as part of a broader agreement with all Shareholders of EuroCTP B.V. The loan will mature in 5 years. Management considers the impact of changes of any unobservable inputs (e.g. credit spread, equity volatility and conversion probabilities) not material for the total level 3 portfolio.
-
Fair values of other financial instruments
The Group has a number of financial instruments which are not measured at fair value in the statement of financial position. For these instruments the fair values approximate their carrying amounts, except for non-current borrowings which fair value amounts to
€2,715.4 million as per 30 June 2026 (31 December 2025: €2,695.5 million).
As per 30 June 2026, trade and other receivables included €102.7 million (31 December 2025: €85.0 million) of Nord Pool power sales positions and trade and other payables included €331.2 million (31 December 2025: €190.9 million) of Nord Pool power purchases positions.
-
Net Treasury Income by classification
For the six months period ended 30 June 2026, net treasury income from CCP clearing business is earned from instruments held at amortised cost or fair value as follows:
A total €36.8 million gain was earned from Euronext Clearing financial assets and financial liabilities held at amortised cost (€214.8 million from interest income on assets held at amortized cost and €178.0 million on interest expenses on liabilities held at amortized cost).
A net €1.4 million gain was incurred from Euronext Clearing assets held at fair value.

Risk management within clearing member business
Credit risk
In their role as CCP clearer to financial market participants, the Group's CCPs guarantee final settlement of transactions acting as buyer towards each seller and as seller towards each buyer. It manages substantial credit risks as part of its operations including unmatched risk positions that might arise from the default of a party to a cleared transaction.
Clearing membership selection is based upon supervisory capital, technical and organisational criteria. Each member must pay margins, computed and collected at least daily, to cover the exposures and theoretical costs which the CCPs might incur in order to close out open positions in the event of the member's default. Margins are calculated using established and internationally acknowledged risk models and are debited from participants' accounts through central bank accounts and via commercial bank payment systems. Minimum levels of cash collateral are required. Non-cash collateral is revalued daily but the members retain title of the asset and the Group only has a claim on these assets in the event of a default by the member.
Clearing members also contribute to default funds managed by the CCPs to guarantee the integrity of the markets in the event of multiple defaults in extreme market circumstances. Amounts are determined on the basis of the results of periodic stress testing examined by the risk committees of the CCPs. Furthermore, the Group's CCPs reinforce their capital position to meet the most stringent relevant regulatory requirements applicable to it, including holding a minimum amount of dedicated own resources to further underpin the protective credit risk framework in the event of a significant market stress event or participant failure.
An analysis of the aggregate clearing member contributions of margin and default funds across the CCPs is shown below:

(a) The total member collateral on the statement of financial position is included in the line 'other payables to clearing members' in the table at Note 20.1.
Investment counterparty risk for CCPs margin and default funds is managed by investing the cash element in instruments or structures deemed 'secure', including through direct investments in highly rated, 'regulatory qualifying' sovereign bonds and supra-national debt, investments in tri-party and bilateral reverse repos (receiving high-quality government securities as collateral) in certain jurisdictions and deposits with the Central Banks of Italy and Greece. As per June 2026, the margin and default funds were mainly deposited with the Central Banks of Italy and Greece. The small proportion of cash that is invested unsecured is placed for short durations with highly rated counterparties where strict limits are applied with respect to credit quality, concentration and tenor.

Distress can result from the risk that certain governments may be unable or find it difficult to service their debts. This could have adverse effects, particularly on the Group's CCPs, potentially impacting cleared products, margin collateral, investments, the clearing membership and the financial industry as a whole.
Specific risk frameworks manage country risk for both fixed income clearing and margin collateral and all clearing members' portfolios are monitored regularly against a suite of sovereign stress scenarios. Investment limits and counterparty and clearing membership monitoring are sensitive to changes in ratings and other financial market indicators, to ensure the Group's CCPs are able to measure, monitor and mitigate exposures to sovereign risk and respond quickly to anticipated changes. Risk Committees maintain an ongoing watch over these risks and the associated policy frameworks to protect the Group against potentially severe volatility in the sovereign debt markets.
The Group's CCPs sovereign exposures at the end of the financial reporting period are provided below. Please note that this table represents the country of the counterparty (financial institution), and not the country of the underlying government bonds.

Liquidity risk
The Group's CCPs must maintain a level of liquidity (consistent with regulatory requirements) to ensure the smooth operation of their respective markets and to maintain operations in the event of a single or multiple market stress event or member failure. This includes the potential requirement to liquidate the position of a clearing member under a default scenario including covering the associated losses and the settlement obligations of the defaulting member.
The Group's CCPs maintain sufficient cash and cash equivalents and have access to intraday central bank refinancing (collateralized with ECB eligible bonds) along with commercial bank credit lines to meet in a timely manner their payment obligations. As at 30 June 2026, the Group's CCPs had €450 million credit lines granted by commercial banks serving as liquid recourse to mitigate liquidity risks according to EMIR regulation. For operational reasons, the Group's CCPs made a partial drawing of US$0.3 million from a multi currency credit line on 29 May 2026. This amount was repaid on 1 June 2026. None of the credit lines are drawn as of 30 June 2026.
Revised regulations requires the CCPs to ensure that appropriate levels of back-up liquidity are in place to underpin the dynamics of a largely secured cash investment requirement, ensuring that the maximum potential outflow under extreme market conditions is covered (see credit risk section). The Group's CCPs monitor their liquidity needs daily under normal and stressed market conditions. Where possible, the Group employs guaranteed delivery versus payment settlement techniques and manages CCP margin and default fund flows through central bank or long-established, bespoke commercial bank settlement mechanisms. Monies due from clearing members remain the clearing members' liability if the payment agent is unable to effect the appropriate transfer. In addition, the Group's CCPs maintain operational facilities with commercial banks to manage intraday and overnight liquidity.
In line with the investment policy and the regulatory requirements, the Group's CCPs have deposited the default funds and margin mainly at the Central Banks of Italy and Greece as per 30 June 2026. The default funds and margin were partially invested in government bonds, with an average maturity of below 12 months, as per 30 June 2026. Even though these financial assets are generally held to maturity, a forced liquidation of the investment portfolio could lead to losses and lack of required liquidity.

Interest rate risk
As at 30 June 2026 the Group's CCP have deposited the default funds and margin mainly at the Central Banks of Italy and Greece reducing the interest rate exposure linked to investment activities. Furthermore, the Group's CCPs face minimal interest rate exposure by applying the same reference rate deriving from the yields achieved through the secured investment activities, to calculate member liabilities.
In the Group's CCPs, interest bearing assets are generally invested in secured instruments or structures and for a longer term than interest bearing liabilities, whose interest rate is reset daily. This makes investment revenue vulnerable to volatility in overnight rates and shifts in spreads between overnight and term rates. On daily basis the interest rate risk associated to investments is monitored via the requirements contained in the CCPs investment policy.
The Group's CCPs have an investment policy, mitigating market risks. The Group's CCPs investments have an average duration of less than one year and are generally held until maturity. Losses will not materialise unless the investment portfolio is liquidated before maturity or in an event of portfolio rebalancing before maturity. In case of a forced liquidation of the CCP's financial investment portfolio before maturity to provide necessary liquidity, the CCPs may face higher interest rate exposure on their financial investment portfolio. The interest rate exposure of the investment portfolio is predominantly at fixed rates (only a negligible part is at floating rates) at the amounts and maturities as disclosed at Liquidity risk above. As per 30 June 2026, an increase/decrease of the rate by 100 basis points would have an increasing/decreasing impact on the investment portfolio market value of €0.3 million or 0.12%.

Independent auditor's review report
To: the Shareholders and Supervisory Board of Euronext N.V.
Our conclusion
We have reviewed the accompanying condensed interim consolidated financial statements as at 30 June 2026 and for the six-month period ended 30 June 2026 of Euronext N.V. (or hereafter: the "Company") based in Amsterdam. Based on our review, nothing has come to our attention that causes us to believe that the condensed interim consolidated financial statements are not prepared, in all material respects, in accordance with IAS 34 'Interim Financial Reporting' as endorsed by the European Union.
The condensed interim consolidated financial statements comprise of:
the condensed interim consolidated statement of financial position as at 30 June 2026;
the following statements for six-month period ended 30 June 2026: the condensed interim consolidated profit or loss, the condensed interim consolidated statements of comprehensive income, changes in equity and cash flows; and
the notes comprising material accounting policy information and other explanatory information.
Basis for our conclusion
We conducted our review in accordance with Dutch law, including the Dutch Standard 2410, 'Het beoordelen van tussentijdse financiële informatie door de accountant van de entiteit' (Review of interim financial information performed by the independent auditor of the entity). A review of interim financial information in accordance with the Dutch Standard 2410 is a limited assurance engagement. Our responsibilities under this standard are further described in the 'Our responsibilities for the review of the condensed interim consolidated financial statements' section of our report.
We are independent of Euronext N.V. in accordance with the Verordening inzake de onafhankelijkheid van accountants bij assurance-opdrachten (ViO, Code of Ethics for Professional Accountants, a regulation with respect to independence) and other relevant independence regulations in the Netherlands. Furthermore we have complied with the Verordening gedrags- en beroepsregels accountants (VGBA, Dutch Code of Ethics).
We believe the assurance evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our conclusion.
Responsibilities of the Managing Board and the Supervisory Board for the condensed interim consolidated financial statements
The Managing Board is responsible for the preparation and presentation of the condensed interim consolidated financial statements in accordance with IAS 34 'Interim Financial Reporting' as endorsed by the European Union. Furthermore, the Managing Board is responsible for such internal control as it determines is necessary to enable the preparation of the condensed interim consolidated financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.
The Supervisory Board is responsible for overseeing the Company's financial reporting process.
Our responsibilities for the review of the condensed interim consolidated financial statements
Our responsibility is to plan and perform the review in a manner that allows us to obtain sufficient and appropriate assurance evidence for our conclusion.
The level of assurance obtained in a review engagement is substantially less than the level of assurance obtained in an audit conducted in accordance with the Dutch Standards on Auditing. Accordingly, we do not express an audit opinion.
We have exercised professional judgement and have maintained professional scepticism throughout the review, in accordance with Dutch Standard 2410.
Our review included among others:
Updating our understanding of the Company and its environment, including its internal control, and the applicable financial reporting framework, in order to identify areas in the condensed interim consolidated financial statements where material misstatements are likely to arise due to fraud or error, designing and performing procedures to address those areas, and obtaining assurance evidence that is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our conclusion.
Obtaining an understanding in the internal control, as it relates to the preparation of the condensed interim consolidated financial statements.
Making inquiries of the Managing Board and others within the Company;
Applying analytical procedures with respect to information included in the condensed interim consolidated financial statements;
Obtaining assurance evidence that the condensed interim consolidated financial statements agree with, or reconcile to the Company's underlying accounting records;
Evaluating the assurance evidence obtained;
Considering whether there have been any changes in accounting principles or in the methods of applying them and whether any new transactions have necessitated the application of a new accounting principle;
Considering whether the Managing Board has identified all events that may require adjustment to or disclosure in the condensed interim consolidated financial statements.
Considering whether the condensed interim consolidated financial statements and the related disclosures represent the underlying transactions and events in a manner that gives a true and fair view.
