Explanatory note

On November 17, 2025, Deutsche Bank AG held its Investor Deep Dive (IDD) conference, in connection with which it

published a Media Release and its senior officers delivered presentations, which are attached as exhibits hereto.

Deutsche Bank hereby incorporates by reference into its Registration Statement No. 333-278331 (i) this Report on Form

6-K and (ii) Exhibits 99.1 and 99.9 hereto. Exhibits 99.2 through 99.8 are not so incorporated by reference.

For non-U.S. purposes, Deutsche Bank publishes its Earnings Report and other financial reporting documents setting

forth results prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) as endorsed by the

European Union, including application of portfolio fair value hedge accounting for non-maturing deposits and fixed rate

mortgages with pre-payment options in accordance with the EU carve out version of IAS 39 (“EU IFRS”, using the “EU

carve out”), and Deutsche Bank’s financial targets and capital objectives are based thereon as well. Fair value hedge

accounting under the EU carve out is employed to minimize the accounting exposure to both positive and negative

moves in interest rates in each tenor bucket thereby reducing the volatility of reported revenue from Treasury activities.

The exhibits hereto are prepared using EU IFRS.

For U.S. reporting purposes, Deutsche Bank also publishes results, including its SEC Annual Report on Form 20-F and its

quarterly Interim and Earnings Reports, prepared in accordance with IFRS as issued by the International Accounting

Standards Board (IASB), which does not permit use of the EU carve out (“IASB IFRS”), but which is otherwise the same as

EU IFRS. The 3Q25 Earnings Report using IASB IFRS was filed as Exhibit 99.1 to Deutsche Bank’s Report on Form 6-K

dated October 29, 2025. The impact of the EU carve out on 3Q25 results is described in the section “Basis of

preparation/impact of changes in accounting principles” thereof. The impacts from applying the EU carve out on the

bank’s fourth quarter 2025 and full year 2025 forecasted results are currently not estimable.

Forward-looking statements contain risks

This report contains forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements are statements that are not historical

facts; they include statements about our beliefs and expectations. Any statement in this report that states Deutsche

Bank’s intentions, beliefs, expectations or predictions (and the assumptions underlying them) is a forward-looking

statement. These statements are based on plans, estimates and projections as they are currently available to the

management of Deutsche Bank. Forward-looking statements therefore speak only as of the date they are made, and

Deutsche Bank undertakes no obligation to update publicly any of them in light of new information or future events.


		3

By their very nature, forward-looking statements involve risks and uncertainties. A number of important factors could

therefore cause actual results to differ materially from those contained in any forward-looking statement. Such factors

include the conditions in the financial markets in Germany, in Europe, in the United States and elsewhere from which

Deutsche Bank derives a substantial portion of its trading revenues, potential defaults of borrowers or trading

counterparties, the implementation of its strategic initiatives, the reliability of its risk management policies, procedures

and methods, and other risks referenced in its filings with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission. Such factors are

described in detail in Deutsche Bank’s 2024 Annual Report on Form 20-F filed with the SEC on March 13, 2025, in the

section entitled “Risk Factors” on pages 11 through 40. Copies of this document are readily available upon request or can

be downloaded from www.deutsche-bank.com/ir.

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures

This document and other documents Deutsche Bank has published or may publish contain non-GAAP financial measures.

Non-GAAP financial measures are measures of its historical or future performance, financial position or cash flows that

contain adjustments that exclude or include amounts that are included or excluded, as the case may be, from the most

directly comparable measure calculated and presented in accordance with IFRS in its financial statements. Examples of

its non-GAAP financial measures, and the most directly comparable IFRS financial measures, are as follows:


Non-GAAP Financial Measure		Most Directly Comparable IFRS Financial Measure
Profit (loss) attributable to Deutsche Bank shareholders for the segments, Profit (loss) attributable to Deutsche Bank shareholders and additional equity components for the segments		Profit (loss)
Net interest income in the key banking book segments		Net interest income
Revenues on a currency-adjusted basis		Net revenues
Adjusted costs, Costs on a currency-adjusted basis, Nonoperating costs		Noninterest expenses
Net assets (adjusted)		Total assets
Tangible shareholders’ equity, Average tangible shareholders’ equity, Tangible book value, Average tangible book value		Total shareholders’ equity (book value)
Post-tax return on average shareholders’ equity (based on Profit (loss) attributable to Deutsche Bank shareholders after AT1 coupon), Post-tax return on average tangible shareholders’ equity (based on Profit (loss) attributable to Deutsche Bank shareholders after AT1 coupon)		Post-tax return on average shareholders’ equity
Tangible book value per basic share outstanding, Book value per basic share outstanding		Book value per share outstanding

For descriptions of these non-GAAP financial measures and the adjustments made to the most directly comparable

financial measures under IFRS, please refer to (i) the section “Non-GAAP financial measures” of Exhibit 99.1 to Deutsche

Bank’s Report on Form 6-K dated October 29, 2025, (ii) the section “Supplementary Information (Unaudited): Non-GAAP

Financial Measures” on pages 422 to 428 of Deutsche Bank’s 2024 Annual Report on Form 20-F and (iii) Exhibit 99.9

hereto.

When used with respect to future periods, the non-GAAP financial measures that Deutsche Bank uses are forward-

looking statements. Deutsche Bank cannot predict or quantify the levels of the most directly comparable financial

measures under IFRS that would correspond to these measures for future periods. This is because neither the magnitude

of such IFRS financial measures, nor the magnitude of the adjustments to be used to calculate the related non-GAAP

financial measures from such IFRS financial measures, can be predicted. Such adjustments, if any, will relate to specific,

currently unknown, events and in most cases can be positive or negative, so that it is not possible to predict whether, for

a future period, the non-GAAP financial measure will be greater than or less than the related IFRS financial measure.
