The Condensed Interim Financial Statements should be read in conjunction with the annual audited financial statements of the Group and of the Bank for the year ended 31 December 2025.

Part A - Explanatory Notes Pursuant to Malaysian Financial Reporting Standard ("MFRS") 134 and Policy Document on Financial Reporting Issued by Bank Negara Malaysia A1. Basis of Preparation

The unaudited condensed interim financial statements for the 1st quarter ended 31 March 2026 have been prepared under the historical cost convention except for the following assets and liabilities which are stated at fair values: financial assets at fair value through profit or loss ("FVTPL"), financial investments at fair value through other comprehensive income ("FVOCI"), derivative financial instruments and investment properties.

The unaudited condensed interim financial statements have been prepared in accordance with MFRS 134: Interim Financial Reporting issued by the Malaysian Accounting Standards Board ("MASB") and Chapter 9, Part K of the Listing Requirements of Bursa Malaysia Securities Berhad. The unaudited condensed interim financial statements should be read in conjunction with the annual audited financial statements of the Group and of the Bank for the financial year ended 31 December 2025. The explanatory notes attached to the unaudited condensed interim financial statements provide an explanation of events and transactions that are significant to an understanding of the changes in the financial position and performance of the Group and of the Bank since the financial year ended 31 December 2025.

The unaudited condensed interim financial statements incorporated those activities relating to the Islamic banking business which have been undertaken by the Group. Islamic banking business refers generally to the acceptance of deposits and granting of financing under the principles of Shariah.

The material accounting policies and methods of computation applied in the unaudited condensed interim financial statements are consistent with those adopted in the most recent annual financial statements for the financial year ended 31 December 2025, except for the adoption of the following during the current financial period:

Effective for annual periods commencing on or after 1 January 2026

  • Amendments to MFRS 9 Financial Instruments and MFRS 7 Financial Instruments: Disclosures - Contracts Referencing Nature-dependent Electricity

    Amendments to MFRS 9 Financial Instruments and MFRS 7 Financial Instruments: Disclosures - Contracts Referencing Nature-dependent Electricity - The amendments include, but are not limited to, the following:
  • clarify the application of the 'own-use' exception as per paragraph 2.4 of MFRS 9;

  • permit an entity to apply hedge accounting in MFRS 9 when these contracts are used as hedging instruments; and

  • introduce new disclosure requirements in MFRS 7 to help users of financial statements understand the effects

    these contracts have on the amount, timing and uncertainty of an entity's future cash flows and financial performance.

    The adoption of the above Amendments to MFRS Accounting Standards did not have any financial impact on the financial statements of the Group and of the Bank.

    The following MFRS Accounting Standards and Amendments to MFRS Accounting Standards have been issued by MASB that are applicable to the Group and the Bank but are not yet effective:

    Effective for annual periods commencing on or after 1 January 2027

  • MFRS 18 Presentation and Disclosure in Financial Statements

  • Amendments to MFRS 19 Subsidiaries without Public Accountability: Disclosures

  • Amendments to MFRS 121 The Effects of Changes in Foreign Exchange Rates - Translation to a Hyperinflationary Presentation Currency

    A1. Basis of Preparation (continued)

    The following MFRS Accounting Standards and Amendments to MFRS Accounting Standards have been issued by MASB that are applicable to the Group and the Bank but are not yet effective (continued):

    Effective date of these Amendments to Standards has been deferred, pending further announcement

  • Amendments to MFRS 10 Consolidated Financial Statements and MFRS 128 Investments in Associates and Joint Ventures - Sale or Contribution of Assets between an Investor and its Associate or Joint Venture

    MFRS 18 Presentation and Disclosure in Financial Statements - The new standard introduces new requirements on presentation within the statement of profit or loss. It also requires disclosure of management-defined performance measures and includes enhanced principles on aggregation and disaggregation of financial information which apply to the primary financial statements and the notes. Amendments to MFRS 19 Subsidiaries without Public Accountability: Disclosures - Amendments to MFRS 19 incorporate reduced disclosure requirements for new and amended MFRS Accounting Standards issued by the MASB as listed below, which reflect the changes that take effect up to 1 January 2027, when MFRS 19 will be applicable:
  • MFRS 18 Presentation and Disclosure in Financial Statements

  • Supplier Finance Arrangements (Amendments to MFRS 107 and MFRS 7)

  • International Tax Reform-Pillar Two Model Rules (Amendments to MFRS 112)

  • Lack of Exchangeability (Amendments to MFRS 121)

  • Amendments to the Classification and Measurement of Financial Instruments (Amendments to MFRS 9 and MFRS 7)

Amendments to MFRS 121 The Effects of Changes in Foreign Exchange Rates - Translation to a Hyperinflationary Presentation Currency - These amendments address how entities should translate financial statements from a non-hyperinflationary currency into a hyperinflationary presentation currency. This aims to improve consistency and clarity in financial reporting under such conditions. Amendments to MFRS 10 Consolidated Financial Statements and MFRS 128 Investments in Associates and Joint Ventures - Sale or Contribution of Assets between an Investor and its Associate or Joint Venture - The amendments clarify that a full gain or loss is recognised when a transaction involves a business (whether it is housed in a subsidiary or not), as defined in MFRS 3 Business Combinations. A partial gain or loss is recognised when a transaction involves assets that do not constitute a business, even if these assets are housed in a subsidiary.

The adoption of the above MFRS Accounting Standards and Amendments to MFRS Accounting Standards is not expected to have any financial impact on the financial statements of the Group and of the Bank.
