Explanatory note and Exhibits<\/p>\n
This Report on Form 6-K contains the following exhibits. This Report on Form 6-K and the exhibits hereto are hereby <\/p>\n
incorporated by reference into Deutsche Bank\u2019s Registration Statement No. 333-278331. For the avoidance of doubt, <\/p>\n
the section of the Interim Report (contained in Exhibit 99.1) entitled \u201cRisks and Opportunities\u201d is intended to supplement, <\/p>\n
but not replace, the section \u201cRisk Factors\u201d in the Deutsche Bank\u2019s 2025 Annual Report on Form 20-F.<\/p>\n
Exhibit 99.1: Deutsche Bank AG\u2019s Interim Report as of June 30, 2026 (IASB IFRS). <\/p>\n
Exhibit 99.2: Capitalization table of Deutsche Bank AG as of June 30, 2026 (IASB IFRS). <\/p>\n
For non-U.S. purposes, Deutsche Bank publishes its Interim Report and other financial reporting documents setting forth <\/p>\n
results prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) as endorsed by the European <\/p>\n
Union, including application of fair value hedge accounting for portfolio hedges of interest rate risk (fair value macro <\/p>\n
hedges) in accordance with the EU carve out version of IAS 39 (\u201cEU IFRS\u201d, using the \u201cEU carve out\u201d). Fair value hedge <\/p>\n
accounting under the EU carve out is employed to minimize the accounting exposure to both positive and negative <\/p>\n
moves in interest rates in each tenor bucket thereby reducing the volatility of reported revenue from Treasury activities.<\/p>\n
For U.S. reporting purposes, Deutsche Bank also publishes its Interim Report prepared in accordance with IFRS as issued <\/p>\n
by the International Accounting Standards Board (IASB), which does not permit use of the EU carve out (\u201cIASB IFRS\u201d), but <\/p>\n
which is otherwise the same as EU IFRS. The Interim Report using IASB IFRS is attached as Exhibit 99.1 hereto. The <\/p>\n
impact of the EU carve out is described in the section \u201cBasis of preparation\/impact of changes in accounting principles\u201d <\/p>\n
thereof.<\/p>\n
Forward-looking statements contain risks<\/p>\n
This report contains forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements are statements that are not historical <\/p>\n
facts; they include statements about our beliefs and expectations. Any statement in this report that states our intentions, <\/p>\n
beliefs, expectations or predictions (and the assumptions underlying them) is a forward-looking statement. These <\/p>\n
statements are based on plans, estimates and projections as they are currently available to the management of Deutsche <\/p>\n
Bank. Forward-looking statements therefore speak only as of the date they are made, and we undertake no obligation to <\/p>\n
update publicly any of them in light of new information or future events.<\/p>\n
By their very nature, forward-looking statements involve risks and uncertainties. A number of important factors could <\/p>\n
therefore cause actual results to differ materially from those contained in any forward-looking statement. Such factors <\/p>\n
include the conditions in the financial markets in Germany, in Europe, in the United States and elsewhere from which we <\/p>\n
derive a substantial portion of our trading revenues, potential defaults of borrowers or trading counterparties, the <\/p>\n
implementation of our strategic initiatives, the reliability of our risk management policies, procedures and methods, and <\/p>\n
other risks referenced in our filings with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission. Such factors are described in <\/p>\n
detail in our 2025 Annual Report on Form 20-F filed with the SEC, under the heading \u201cRisk Factors.\u201d Copies of this <\/p>\n
document are readily available upon request or can be downloaded from www.deutsche-bank.com\/ir.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Explanatory note and Exhibits This Report on Form 6-K contains the following exhibits.
