This release contains inside information related to Gjensidige Forsikring ASA
pursuant to the EUMarket Abuse Regulation and is subject to the disclosure
requirements pursuant to Section 5-12 the Norwegian Securities Trading Act.

Gjensidige generated a profit after tax of NOK 1,310 million in the fourth
quarter and NOK 6,417 million for the full year, supported by strong revenue
growth and solid contributions from the investment portfolios. The combined
ratio improved significantly for the year as a whole. Reduction of the book
value of the core IT system for the general insurance business, and workforce
reductions in Denmark, both recognised in the fourth quarter, reduced the profit
by NOK 502 million. The capital position remains strong and the Board proposes a
dividend of NOK 14.50 per share, comprising a regular dividend of NOK 10.00 and
a special dividend of NOK 4.50.

-We made good progress in 2025 thanks to our engaged and competent employees and
solid operations, and I expect this development to continue going forward, says
CEO Geir Holmgren.

-We will continue our efforts to retain our leading and unique position in the
Norwegian market, while strengthening profitability and growth both in and
outside Norway, says Holmgren.
