IMPORTANT LEGAL INFORMATION AND CAUTIONARY STATEMENTS CONCERNING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS AND THE USE OF NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES
Certain statements contained herein may be forward-looking statements including, but not limited to, statements that are predictions of or indicate future events, trends, plans, expectations or
objectives. Undue reliance should not be placed on such statements because, by their nature, they are subject to known and unknown risks and uncertainties and can be affected by other factors that
could cause AXA’s actual results to differ materially from those expressed or implied in such forward looking statements. Please refer to Part 4 - “Risk Factors and Risk Management” of AXA’s Universal
Registration Document for the year ended December 31, 2019 (the 2019 Universal Registration Document”) and “Operating HighlightsRisk Factors” on pages 12 to 13 of AXA’s half-year financial
report as of June 30, 2020 (the Half-Year 2020 Financial Report”), for a description of certain important factors, risks and uncertainties that may affect AXA’s business and/or results of operations,
particularly in respect of the Covid-19 crisis. AXA undertakes no obligation to publicly update or revise any of these forward-looking statements, whether to reflect new information, future events or
circumstances or otherwise, except as required by applicable laws and regulations.
In addition, this presentation refers to certain non-GAAP financial measures, or alternative performance measures (“APMs”), used by Management in analyzing AXA’s operating trends, financial
performance and financial position and providing investors with additional information that Management believes to be useful and relevant regarding AXA’s results. These non-GAAP financial
measures generally have no standardized meaning and therefore may not be comparable to similarly labelled measures used by other companies. As a result, none of these non-GAAP financial
measures should be considered in isolation from, or as a substitute for, the Group’s consolidated financial statements and related notes prepared in accordance with IFRS. A reconciliation from APMs
adjusted earnings, underlying earnings and combined ratio to the most directly reconcilable line item, subtotal or total in the financial statements of the corresponding period is provided on pages 19
and 20 of the Half-Year 2020 Financial Report. APMs adjusted return on equity and underlying earnings per share are reconciled to the financial statements in the tables set forth on page 26 of the Half-
Year 2020 Financial Report. The APM underlying return on equity is defined and reconciled to the financial statements in AXA’s 2020 Investor Day press release dated December 1, 2020. The calculation
methodology of the debt gearing is set out on page 22 of the Half-Year 2020 Financial Report. The above-mentioned and other non-GAAP financial measures used in this presentation (except
underlying return on equity) are defined in the Glossary set forth on pages 60 to 67 of the Half-Year 2020 Financial Report.

AXA has delivered on the strategic themes of its 2016-20 plan…
Shift business profile
towards technical risks
Simplify the Group

transformation), dramatically changing its profile with
now more than 80% of its profits

from higher-growing

reinforced its presence in China

SFCR as of December 31, 2019, available on AXA’s website (www.axa.com). In compliance with the decision from AXA’s lead supervisor (the ACPR) from January 1, 2019, entities that were
part of the XL Group (“XL entities”) have been fully consolidated for Solvency II purposes (as per the consolidation-based method set forth in the Solvency II Directive) and their
contribution to the Group’s solvency capital requirement has been calculated using the Solvency II standard formula. Subject to the prior approval of the ACPR, the Group intends to
extend its Internal Model to XL entities as soon as December 31, 2020.
