5 Tryg s results Tryg s return on equity was 21.9% (32.1%), which was a good result in a quarter with a satisfactory insurance result and a negative investment return affected by volatile financial markets. Competition continued to be at a high level which was mitigated through Tryg s efficiency programme. At the same time, we saw a general positive development in reaching our customer targets. Tryg returned a profit after tax of DKK 580m (DKK 869m). The technical result improved slightly when adjusted for positive one-off effects of DKK 135m in Q The result was positively affected by the internal efficiency programme delivering savings of DKK 38m in Q2 although this year s DKK 150m target for the efficiency programme is at a significantly lower level than the around DKK 400m realised a year in 2013 and The efficiency programme targets for 2016 and 2017 are DKK 225m and DKK 375m. The investment return was negative at DKK 84m (DKK 259m), influenced by losses on bonds due to increasing interest rates and a negative result from the match portfolio. A combined ratio of 82.2 (80.7) was posted, representing an improvement of 1.3 percentage points when adjusted for one-off effects of 2.8% in Q The combined ratio was impacted by a higher level of large claims of 2.8 (1.7). Competition was strong, but was offset by the efficiency programme and initiatives, and the underlying combined ratio improved by 0.6 percentage points when adjusted for weather and large claims, run-off, interest rates and one-off effects. Combined ratio of 82.2, an improvement of 1.3 percentage points adjusted for one-off effects of 2.8% in Q Tryg is maintaining its strong focus on the customer targets communicated at the Capital Markets Day (CMD) in November The Net Promoter Score (NPS) improved from 11 at CMD to 20 on 30 June The NPS score is based on a high score within Private and a low score in Commercial. However, in Q2, Commercial in both Denmark and Norway increased their scores. NPS is generally expected to be highly volatile. The retention rate of 88.0 was on a par with the rate reported at the CMD. The rate was driven by a negative development in the Norwegian part of the business and a positive development in the Danish part. The number of private customers with three or more products increased from 56.3% to 56.6%, a further increase from 56.5% in Q Commercial radically changed its structure through increased empowerment of the frontline organisation and a reduction in back-office functions. This change will reduce expenses, but will also support first-contact resolution by removing a lot of un neces sary stops in connection with the selling of insurance. In Sweden, the brokers once again and with a higher score than in previous years acknowledged Corporate Sweden as their preferred company. Within Private, we also saw the first positive results from our initiatives to improve first-contact resolutions through new customer centre workflows. Tryg launched four new pricedifferentiated products in Q The development of price-differentiated products continues, and in Q2 Tryg launched new Personal Accident products in both Denmark and Norway. Furthermore, a new holiday home insurance product was launched in Norway, and Tryg was the first company to introduce a change of car ownership insurance product in Denmark. The product is for customers buying and selling cars privately and consists of a car test in combination with a change of car ownership insurance. The car test is mandatory if you want to take out the change of car ownership insurance, which covers mechanical damage for the first six months. The new car insurance product launched in Q in Denmark has generally been positively received by the market. The average sales price of the new car insurance is around 6% higher than the old product; it consists of a basic cover with a lower price and a number of optional types of cover. Sales of additional car insurance cover have been in line with expectations. The Danish Consumer Council recommended Tryg s new car insurance product as best in test. Corporate Social Responsibility and claims prevention are integral parts of our core business and are key to the development, and improvement of our products and services. In Q2, Tryg launched the Tryg Home Hotline, which is a new hotline service for Tryg Plus customers who can call in with questions about their house, apartment or holiday home, for example damp issues. Customers are then advised on how to fix the problem before it develops into a claim. Tryg has almost digitised 80% of its Danish and more than 60% of its Norwegian customers. Working from this position, Tryg is going to develop world-class digital customer solutions, which will both support customer loyalty and the continued focus on expense reductions.

7 The individual solvency need totalled DKK 6,694m at the end of Q2 2015, and in relation to the capital base of DKK 10,094m and after share buy back, Tryg s surplus capital amounted to DKK 3,400m, or 51%. Tryg s capital adequacy calculation includes approximately NOK 1.2bn after tax from the Norwegian Natural Perils Pool and the Norwegian guarantee scheme. It still has to be decided how these should be classified under Solvency II. Tryg expects the issue to be clarified before the planned implementation of Solvency II on 1 January Tryg pays out a semi-annual dividend of DKK 2.50 per share Tryg will start paying a semi-annual dividend of DKK 2.50 per share, equivalent to around 40% of the total dividend based on 2015 results. The payment of dividend will take place on 15 July On 2 January 2015, Tryg initiated the buy back of own shares for an amount of DKK 1,000m. At the end of Q2 2015, 3,524,459 shares for a total amount of DKK 544m had been repurchased. The share buy back will be realised in the period up until the end of cover the financial loss due to accidents which make people unfit to work. Today, this product is offered under Tryg s non-life concession. Due to the FSA s revised regulation, Tryg as a Danish non-life insurance company may no longer offer this product unless Tryg acquires a Norwegian life insurance concession. However, Norwegian non-life insurance companies continue to offer uføreforsikring in the Norwegian market, implying that the revised FSA regulation is discriminatory against Tryg compared with the Norwegian insurance companies. Tryg has referred the FSA s decision to the Business Complaints Board (Erhvervsankenævnet). Concurrently, Tryg has initiated the process of establishing a life insurance company so as to be able to comply with the requirements if the FSA s decision is upheld. Results H Profit after tax was DKK 1,105 (1,324m). The combined ratio was 86.4 (84.9), and adjusted for one-off effects of 1.4%, the combined ratio was more or less unchanged. The investment income was DKK 177m (348m) mainly due to a high return on equities in Q In Q2 2015, Tryg launched a new accident insurance product in both Denmark and Norway. The product consists of a basic cover and additional cover such as critical illness for children and young ones and an extra disposable amount to parents if the child suffers from serious permanent injury. Regulatory changes The Danish Financial Supervisory Authority (FSA) has changed its interpretation regarding the concession requirements for offering uføreforsikring products in Norway, insurance products which The claims ratio, net of ceded business, was 71.0 (70.7), which represented an underlying improvement of 0.4 percentage points adjusted for weather claims, large claims, run-off and discounting.

8 Private Financial highlights Q Technical result of DKK 434m (DKK 494m) Combined ratio of 80.7 (78.8) adjusted for one-off effects of 3.3% in Q2 2014, an improvement of 1.4 percentage points Premium growth reduced by 0.3% (0.1%) Results Private posted a technical result of DKK 434m (DKK 494m) and a combined ratio of 80.7 (78.8). Adjusted for one-off effects of 3.3%, the combined ratio improved by 1.4 percentage points. The result is positively affected by Tryg s efficiency programme and a lower level of weather claims. The quarter saw an underlying improvement in the claims ratio of 0.6, taking into account the fact that interest rates had a negative impact of 0.3 percentage points. Premiums Gross premium income was reduced by 0.3% when measured in local currencies (0.1%). The positive development in sales continues whereas retention rates were unchanged in Denmark and dropped slightly in Norway. In Norway, franchise sales remained high, which can be attributed to an increased number of sales agents, the high sales rates of the many newly launched pricedifferentiated products and increased customer focus. The development in premium income in Denmark is still affected by the high sales of small cars. This leads to lower average premiums, which is compensated by lower risk. The average price development for house insurance in Denmark was down 0.8%, which can be ascribed to the improved pricing of the price-differentiated products and the strong competition in the markets. The development in claims inflation is increasing slightly, and Tryg intends to secure an ongoing sustainable balance between smaller price adjustments and inflation. The retention rate was unchanged at 89.7 for the Danish business relative to Q1 2015, against 89.4 at CMD (November 2014). In Norway, the retention rate was 86.5, down from 86.6 in Q1 2015, against 86.9 at CMD (November 2014). Claims The gross claims ratio was 63.3 (69.0). The claims ratio, net of ceded business, constituted 65.4 (66.4) and was influenced by a lower level of weather claims. The improvement in the underlying claims ratio was 0.6 percentage points, which was attributable to the ongoing efficiency programme. Key figures Private The claims development for house insurance is not acceptable in Norway and will be balanced by minor price adjustments. In Denmark, there was also a reduction in the average price of house insurance, which was due to higher sales of smaller houses at lower prices as the new differentiated house product is most competitive for this segment. Private plans to convert part of the house portfolio in the Danish business to the new house product, which will increase the average price.

9 Expenses The expense ratio for Private was 15.3 (12.4). Adjusted for one-off effects of 3.3%, this represented an improvement of 0.4 percentage points. To improve expense levels, Private has also been looking into outsourcing back-office functions, and potential areas have been identified. Private sees a reasonable outsourcing potential, and this will support the development towards a lower expense ratio and an improved competitive position. Private has already reduced the number of employees in back-office functions, which has resulted in a drop of around 30 full-time employees, which will improve the expense ratio going forward. The number of employees totalled 875 at the end of Q2 against 903 at the end of Results H The technical result was DKK 615m (DKK 767m). The combined ratio was 86.2 (83.3), and adjusted for one-off effects the combined ratio increased by 1.2 percentage points mainly due to a higher level of weather claims. Premium growth in local currencies was 0.0%, which was an improvement of 0.2 percentage points compared to H The claims ratio, net of ceded business, was 70.9 (69.4), which represented an underlying improvement of 0.6 percentage points adjusted for weather claims, large claims, run-off and discounting. In Q2, Tryg launched the Tryg Home Hotline, which is a new hotline service for Tryg Plus customers, who can call in with questions about their house, apartment or holiday home, for example damp issues. Private encompasses the sale of insurance products to private individuals in Denmark and Norway. Sales are effected via call centres, online, Tryg s own agents, franchisees (Norway), interest organisations, car dealers, estate agents and Nordea s branches. The business area accounts for 49% of the Group s total premium income. Contents Management s review Interim report Q2 and H Tryg A/S 9

10 Commercial changed structure granting a stronger mandate to the frontline organisation and reducing back-office functions will result in a reduction of around 20 employees going forward. At the end of Q2, Commercial had 556 employees, three fewer than at the end of The claims ratio, net of ceded business, was 64.1 (65.3), which represented an underlying improvement of 0.3 percentage points adjusted for weather claims, large claims, run-off and discounting. Financial highlights Q Technical result of DKK 220m (DKK 224m) Combined ratio of 78.1 (79.1) adjusted for one-off effects of 4.4% in Q2 2014, an improvement of 5.4 percentage points Premium growth of -4.3% (-3.9%) Results Commercial posted a technical result of DKK 220m (DKK 224m) and a combined ratio of 78.1 (79.1). Adjusted for one-off effects of 4.4%, the combined ratio improved by 5.4 percentage points. A high level of run-off influenced results. The underlying claims ratio deteriorated by 0.8% mainly due to a higher level of medium-sized claims. Premiums Gross premium income totalled DKK 997m (DKK 1,053m), a drop of 4.3% in local currencies (3.9%). The reduction in premium income was only slightly worse than in Q This can primarily be ascribed to developments in Norway in form of a weaker economic situation combined with intensifying competition, especially in the brokered seg- ments, but also to the fact that the ongoing change in the organisation towards more mandate to the frontline will temporarily have a slightly negative impact on the distribution. A high retention rate of 87.5 was maintained in Denmark. In Norway, the retention rate dropped from 88.0 in Q to 87.6 for the above-mentioned reasons. In Q2, Commercial radically changed its structure by strengthening the mandate and empowerment of its frontline organisation and reducing back-office functions. The change supports first-contact resolution by removing a lot of unnecessary stops when selling insurance. To ensure control of risk selection and portfolio quality, Commercial has invested in Portfolio Management capabilities and set-up a Quality Assurance department. Claims The gross claims ratio was 55.7 (72.1), and the claims ratio, net of ceded business, was 60.9 (66.5). The development in the claims ratio, net of ceded business, is attributable to a higher level of run-off gains. Expenses The expense ratio was 17.2 (12.6), up 0.2 percentage points when adjusted for one-off effects. The Results H The technical result was DKK 375m (DKK 417m). The combined ratio was 81.4 (80.4), and adjusted for one-off effects the combined ratio improved by 1.2 percentage points mainly due to a higher level of run-off, large claims and lower effect from discounting. Premium growth in local currencies was -3.3%, an improvement of 0.9 percentage points compared to H Key figures Commercial Commercial encompasses the sale of insurance products to small and mediumsized businesses in Denmark and Norway. Sales are effected by Tryg s own sales force, brokers, franchisees (Norway), customer centres as well as group agreements. The business area accounts for 23% of the Group s total premium income.

11 Corporate Financial highlights Q Technical result of DKK 99m (DKK 180m) Combined ratio of 90.3 (82.9) adjusted for one-off effects of 1.8% in Q2 2014, an improvement of 5.6 percentage points Gross claims ratio affected by a high level of large claims Premium growth of -1.4% (1.8%) impacted by loss of large accounts Results The technical result amounted to DKK 99m (DKK 180m), and the combined ratio was 90.3 (82.9). Adjusted for one-off effects of 1.8%, the combined ratio increased by 5.6 percentage points. A very high level of large claims, related gains from reinsurance and run-off gains affected the results. Premiums Gross premium income totalled DKK 993m (DKK 1,030m), down 1.4% when measured in local currencies. The decline reflects the loss of large accounts and also the fact that premium income for Q was affected by one-off regulations leading to a higher premium income in that quarter. Improving the corporate customer experience is important. It was therefore positive when Corporate Sweden was given the highest approval rating by brokers in the Swedish market for the third consecutive year running, in fact gaining a higher score than in the previous two years. The approval was based on elements such as quality, speed and availability. In Norway, we have also received improved evaluations from both customers and brokers. Corporate in Denmark has started a review of its processes to improve the customer experience, and the initiative will be continued in both Norway and Sweden. An important part of the customer experience is the claims handling process. If corporate clients experience a large property claim, they often face complex issues such as how to minimise the effect on their production lines and the replacement of sophisticated machinery. In these cases, Tryg's claims department allocates a team of specialists to handle the claim, making sure that the client gets back into operation as quickly as possible, thereby minimising costs for both the client and Tryg. Claims The gross claims ratio stood at (73.3), while the claims ratio, net of ceded business, was 79.3 (73.4). The level of gross claims was significantly impacted by large claims, but this also led to a very high recovery on reinsurance. The level of large claims, net of reinsurance was 8.3 (0.5), primarily reflecting Tryg s excess relating to large claims. The large claims primarily related to fire incidents. The Swedish business continued its positive development in Q2. After unsatisfactory results in 2013 and 2014, a number of initiatives have been Key figures Corporate taken to improve profitability. The effect of these initiatives are monitored closely and have led to an improved underlying claims development. Expenses The expense ratio was 11.0 (9.5), which adjusted for one-off effects represents an improvement of 0.3 percentage points. To reduce the expense ratio further, Corporate has identified areas which will be part of the first wave of outsourcing in the business areas. The number of Corporate employees stood at 274, which represents a reduction of 5 since the end of DKKm Q Q H H FY 2014 Gross premium income 993 1,030 1,961 2,019 4,033 Gross claims -1, ,347-1,561-2,872 Gross expenses Profit/loss on gross business Profit/loss on ceded business Insurance technical interest, net of reinsur Technical result Run-off gains/losses, net of reinsurance Key ratios Premium growth in local currency (%) Gross claims ratio Net reinsurance ratio Claims ratio, net of reinsurance Gross expense ratio Combined ratio Combined ratio exclusive of run-off Run-off, net of reinsurance (%) Large claims, net of reinsurance (%) Weather claims, net of reinsurance (%) Contents Management s review Interim report Q2 and H Tryg A/S 11

12 Results H The technical result was DKK 169m (DKK 199m). The combined ratio was 91.5 (90.6), and adjusted for one-off effects the combined ratio was unchanged. Tryg was the first company to introduce a change of car ownership insurance product in Denmark. The product is for customers buying and selling cars privately and consists of a car test and a change of car ownership insurance. Premium growth in local currencies was -0.2%, which was a reduction of 1.5 percentage points compared to H due to the loss of large accounts. The claims ratio, net of ceded business, was 80.1 (79.6), which represented an underlying improvement of 0.7 percentage points adjusted for weather claims, large claims, run-off and discounting.

13 Sweden Financial highlights Q Technical result of DKK 72m (DKK 43m) Combined ratio of 78.9 (88.6) Premium growth of -1.8% (-9.3%), positively affected by strong sales development Results Sweden posted a technical result of DKK 72m (DKK 43m) and a combined ratio of 78.9 (88.6). The improved results can be ascribed to a higher level of run-off and lower expense levels. The underlying claims ratio deteriorated by 2.8 percentage points due to medium-sized claims relating to fires. Premiums Premium income totalled DKK 342m (DKK 358m), equating to a fall of 1.8% when measured in local currencies. The improved premium development trend is thus maintained. The outbound, inbound and aggregator distribution channels are generally all seeing positive development. In the niche areas comprising boat, MC and extended warranty insurance products, developments were also very satisfactory. Especially sales from Atlantica and Bilsport & MC improved significantly, and sales of pet insurance were also at a very high level. In general, the development in number of customers was positive, and sales were at a higher level than during the period where banc assurance was the main distribution channel. Developments in the portfolio relating to the Villaägerne agreement, which ended on 1 January 2015, were better than expected, and the Nordea portfolio is now also seeing stable development in line with the portfolio in general. From Q4 2015, the agreement with the supermarket chain ICA will end, which will lead to a gradual reduction in the portfolio. Claims The gross claims ratio totalled 61.1 (69.3), while the claims ratio, net of ceded business, was 61.1 (69.0). The positive development can be ascribed to a higher run-off level offsetting a higher level of medium-sized claims. Expenses The expense ratio was 17.8 (19.6), an improvement which can be ascribed to the organisation s focus on adjusting expenses to the reduced size of the portfolio. The most important initiative has been the replacement of partner sales with own distribution. The number of employees was 337 at the end of Q2, down 45 from 382 at the end of The significant reduction can be ascribed to synergies resulting from the successful integration of Securator and to the fact that the employees laid off as a result of the decision to centralise the call centre in southern Sweden have now left the company. Results H The technical result was DKK 95m (DKK 81m). The combined ratio was 85.0 (88.6), an improvement of 3.6 percentage points mainly due to a higher level of run-off. Premium growth in local currencies was -2.6%, which was a significant improvement from in H Key figures Sweden The claims ratio, net of ceded business, was 65.8 (68.9), which represented some medium-sized claims in Q Sweden comprises the sale of insurance products to private customers under the Moderna brand.

14 Investment activities Financial highlights Q Investment return of DKK -84m (DKK 259m) Gross return on free portfolio of DKK 41m (DKK 244m) Return on match portfolio of DKK -55m (DKK 99m) Tryg s investment activities returned DKK -84m (DKK 259m) in Q2. The result can be explained by a strong and positive return of DKK 41m on the free portfolio, a net return of DKK -55m on the match portfolio and other financial income and expenses of DKK -70m. Q2 was characterised by increasing interest rates and inflation, but the growth seems on track despite uncertainty and the Greek debt crisis. The match portfolio Tryg matches the insurance provisions with the assets in the match portfolio so that changes in interest rate levels affect Tryg s results as little as possible. This generally leads to less variation in results and will under Solvency II reduce the capital requirement needed to accommodate fluctuations. The difference between the return on the match portfolio and the price adjustments of the claims provisions and the insurance technical interest is divided into two components: a regulatory deviation and a performance component. In Q2 2015, the match portfolio generated a negative gross return of DKK 393m. On the other hand, the value of Tryg s provisions decreased by DKK 401m, and the technical interest transferred was DKK 63m. The total difference thus amounts to DKK -55m, which can be split into a regulatory deviation of DKK -44m and a performance of DKK -11m. The regulatory deviation is caused by the differences between the market-based swap rates and the constructed Danish Financial Supervisory Authority s (FSA) interest rates. The FSA s yields are based on euro swap rates whereas the hedges are local swaps. The yield spread between the Eurozone and Denmark decreased in Q1 due to the massive turbulence in relation to the Danish Krone. This provided a positive regulatory deviation. As this yield spread reversed in Q2, the regulatory deviation was DKK -44m for the quarter.

The covered bond market in Denmark and Norway was under pressure during Q2. First large issues of lowcoupon mortgage bonds squeezed the Danish mortgage segment, and afterwards strongly increasing interest rates, very volatile markets and lower demand compressed performance in Nordic covered bonds. All in all, this resulted in a small negative match performance of DKK 11m in Q2. Contents Management s review Interim report Q2 and H Tryg A/S 14

17 Outlook Tryg is going to develop world-class digital customer solutions, which will both support customer loyalty and the continued focus on expense reductions. Our customers want to be able to serve themselves online, and our focus is on developing convenient solutions. Tryg announced financial targets for 2015 at Capital Markets Day (CMD) in 2012, and for 2017 at the CMD in To ensure that Tryg realises its financial targets for 2015 and 2017, a efficiency programme has been launched. The aim is to reduce expenses and claims by a total of DKK 750m, with DKK 500m relating to the procurement of claims services and administration and DKK 250m relating to expenses, in the period up to and including Tryg expects the development in gross premium income to be slightly negative to unchanged in 2015 and on a par with the growth in GDP in 2016, including acquisitions of smaller portfolios. Tryg has a solid reserve position, which was confirmed in connection with an external review by KPMG in This review strengthened Tryg s assessment of its reserve position, and it is therefore deemed likely that the run-off level in the coming years will be higher than previously. The interest rate used for discounting Tryg s technical provisions is now historically low. A higher interest rate level will have a positive effect on Tryg s results. In 2015, weather claims of DKK 500m and large claims of DKK 550m net of reinsurance are expected. The investment portfolio is generally divided into a match portfolio corresponding to the technical provisions and a free portfolio. The objective is for the return on the match portfolio and changes in the technical provisions due to interest rate changes to be neutral when taken together. The return on bonds in the free portfolio will vary, but considering current interest rate levels, a low return is currently expected. For shares and real estate, returns of 7% and 6%, respectively, are expected. Investment activities include other types of investment income and expenses, especially the cost of managing the investments, gains and losses on foreign currency hedges and interest paid on loans. Tax rates have gradually been lowered in Denmark, Norway and Sweden in recent years. In Denmark, the tax rate will be reduced to 22% in the period up to The Norwegian tax rate is 27%, while the Swedish rate is 22%. When calculating the total tax payable, it should be noted that gains and losses on shareholdings are not taxed in Norway.
