Comment by Arko Kurtmann, Chairman of the Management Board of Coop Pank:

"This year began for Coop Pank with a solid profit of EUR2.8 million, which is 4%
higher than in the same period last year, indicating that the bank's
profitability has turned upward.

In January, the bank's loan portfolio continued to grow moderately, primarily
supported by new business loans and home loans. The loan portfolio remains of
good quality. In January, the bank's interest income and fee and commission
income remained stable and in line with expectations, as did operating expenses.

Although the pace of customer acquisition and activity was somewhat lower than
usual in the first month of the year, the bank remained satisfied with the
growth rate of its customer base.

In January, the Supervisory Board of Coop Pank approved the bank's strategic
objectives for the next five years, which include maintaining the current rapid
growth pace and dividend policy, increasing profitability, continuing strategic
cooperation with Coop retail, and launching investment services.

In addition, the bank announced in January that as of 1 February 2026, the
Management Board will be expanded to include Coop Pank's Head of IT, Alvar
Pihlapuu.

At the end of January, Coop Pank's return on equity stood at 14.2% and the cost-
to-income ratio at 50%, both close to the bank's long-term targets of an ROE of
at least 15% and a cost-to-income ratio below 45%."
