The number of the LHV Pank's clients increased by 3,600 in July. LHV Pank's
results were affected by faster-than-planned loan portfolio growth, leading to
higher interest income. Of the EUR 81 million increase in the loan portfolio,
EUR 43 million originated from corporate loans and EUR 38 million from retail
loans. The month was marked by excellent home loan sales. As a result of credit
quality remaining at a good level, discounts have remained lower than expected.
Among deposits, both the deposits of LHV Pank's regular clients (+ EUR 89
million) and the deposits of financial intermediaries (+EUR 69 million)
increased.

The loan portfolio of LHV Bank operating in the United Kingdom increased by EUR
23 million in July, and the total of loans approved but not yet granted
increased to EUR 147 million. Platform deposits raised from a total of 6,800
depositors increased by EUR 39 million over the month. The volume of deposits of
financial intermediaries, which decreased significantly in June, reduced
interest income in July. LHV Bank's profits were affected by higher than planned
operating expenses, originating from the active development of the retail
banking offer.

In the context of volatile markets, larger funds managed by LHV Varahaldus
showed positive returns in July. At the same time, the increase of the reference
index has reached the most modest level in recent years (annual increase of

insurance contracts with a total volume of EUR 3.4 million. Loss events were
compensated for in the amount of EUR 1.8 million. The profitability of the
