Notes to the UBS Group AG standalone financial statements
Note 1
Corporate information
UBS Group AG is incorporated and
domiciled in Switzerland, and its registered
office is at Bahnhofstrasse 45, CH-8001
Zurich,
Switzerland.
UBS
Group
AG
operates
under
Art.
620
et
seq.
of
the
Swiss
Code
of
Obligations
as
an
Aktiengesellschaft
(a corporation limited by shares).
The UBS Group AG
standalone financial statements are prepared
in accordance with the
principles of the Swiss
law on
accounting and financial reporting (32nd title of the Swiss Code of Obligations).
The significant accounting and valuation principles applied are described in Note 2.
UBS Group AG is the
ultimate holding company of the UBS
Group, the grantor of certain
deferred compensation plans
of UBS Group and the issuer of loss-absorbing capital notes, which qualify as Basel III additional tier 1 (AT1) capital on a
consolidated UBS Group basis, and senior unsecured debt, which contributes to the total loss-absorbing capacity (TLAC)
of the Group.
The proceeds
from the
issuances of
loss-absorbing AT1
capital notes
and TLAC-eligible
senior unsecured
debt instruments
are on
lent to
UBS AG
or were
on lent
to either
UBS AG
or Credit
Suisse AG
until the
two entities
merged on
31 May 2024.
›
Refer to Notes 14 and 16 for more information about the main terms and conditions of the loss-absorbing
AT1 capital notes and
TLAC-eligible senior unsecured debt instruments issued
In addition,
UBS Group
AG grants
Deferred Contingent
Capital Plan
(DCCP) awards
to UBS
Group employees.
These
DCCP awards also qualify as Basel III AT1 capital of the Group.
As
of 31
December 2025,
UBS
Group
AG
’
s
distributable
items
for
the
purpose
of
AT1
capital
instruments
were
USD 70.2bn
(CHF 55.6bn)
(31 December 2024:
USD 64bn
(CHF 58.1bn)).
For
this
purpose,
distributable
items
are
defined in
the terms
and conditions of
the relevant
instruments as the
aggregate of
(i) net
profits carried
forward and
(ii) freely distributable reserves, in
each case less any
amounts that must be
contributed to legal reserves
under applicable
law.
In 2025, as approved by shareholders at
the Annual General Meeting (the AGM)
held on 10 April 2025, the cancellation
of 120,506,008 shares,
each with a
nominal value of
USD 0.10, acquired
under the 2022
share repurchase program,
was
executed. The
cancellation of
these shares
resulted in
reclassifications within equity
but had
no net
effect on
the total
equity attributable to shareholders. The share
capital has been reduced by
the nominal value of the
repurchased shares
upon cancellation,
i.e. USD
12m (CHF
10m). The
capital contribution
reserve and
the voluntary
earnings reserve
were
each
reduced
by
50%
of
the
total
capital
reduction
amount
exceeding
the
nominal
value
upon
cancellation
of
the
repurchased shares, i.e. each by USD 1,133m (CHF 898m).
Note 2
Accounting policies
Foreign currency translation
Transactions denominated in foreign currency are translated into US dollars at the spot
exchange rate on the date of
the
transaction. At the balance sheet
date, all current assets and short-term
liabilities, as well as
Financial assets
measured at
fair value that are denominated in a foreign currency,
are translated into US dollars using the closing exchange rate. For
Other non-current assets
and long-term
liabilities, where
the asset mirrors
the terms of
a corresponding
liability or the
asset and
liability otherwise
form an
economic hedge
relationship, the
asset and
liability are
treated as
one unit
of account
for foreign currency translation purposes, with
offsetting unrealized foreign currency
translation gains and losses based
on the
closing exchange
rate presented
net in
the income
statement.
Investments in
subsidiaries
measured at
historic
cost are translated at
the spot exchange rate on
the date of a contribution.
Currency translation effects from
dividends
paid
in
Swiss
francs
are
recognized
in
equity.
All
other
currency
translation
effects
are
recognized
in
the
income
statement.
The
main
currency
translation
rates
used
by
UBS
Group
AG
are
provided
in
Note
31
in
the
“Consolidated
financial
statements” section of the UBS Group Annual Report 2025, available under “Annual reporting” at
ubs.com/investors
.

Note 2
Accounting policies (continued)
Presentation currencies
The primary presentation currency of the standalone financial statements of UBS Group AG
is the US dollar, in line with
its functional currency. Amounts in Swiss francs are also presented for each component of the financial statements.
As of
1 January
2025, UBS
Group AG
has prospectively
adopted the
closing rate
method for
converting US
dollar amounts
into Swiss francs. Under this method, all assets, liabilities and equity positions, as well as income and expense items, are
converted at
the closing
rate. In
the comparative
period, UBS
Group AG
applied the
modified closing rate
method for
converting US dollar amounts into Swiss francs: assets and liabilities were converted at the closing rate, equity positions
at
historic
rates
and
income
and
expense
items
at
the
weighted
average
rate
for
the
period.
The
resulting
currency
translation effects
were recognized
separately in
Voluntary earnings
reserve
, amounting
to a
cumulative negative
currency
translation effect of CHF 2,137m as of 31 December 2024.
UBS Group AG
has updated the
accounting policy as
it provides a
more current and
more relevant presentation
of the
Swiss franc equivalents of the underlying US dollar amounts. The change in the accounting policy had no impact on the
amounts presented in the primary presentation currency, the US dollar.
Marketable securities
Marketable securities
includes investment funds held to hedge granted deferred compensation awards with future cash
distributions linked to the
underlying funds. The holding
period is deemed short
term if the vesting
date of the awards
hedged by the funds is
within 12 months after the
balance sheet date. These are
equity instruments and are measured
at fair value
based on quoted
market prices or
other observable market
prices as of
the balance sheet
date. Gains and
losses resulting from fair value changes are recognized in
Financial income
and
Financial expenses
, respectively.
Financial assets
Financial assets
includes investment funds
with a long-term
holding period. The
holding period is
deemed long term
if
the vesting
date of
the awards
hedged by
the funds
is more
than 12
months after
the balance
sheet date.
These are
equity instruments and are measured at
fair value based on
their quoted market prices
or other observable market
prices
as of the balance sheet date.
Gains and losses resulting from
fair value changes are recognized
in
Financial income
and
Financial expenses,
respectively.
Financial assets
also includes loans to and fixed-term
deposits with UBS AG, as well
as debt securities of UBS AG
(initially
issued
by
Credit
Suisse
AG),
all
with
a
remaining
maturity
of
more
than
12
months.
The
loans
granted
to
UBS AG
substantially mirror the
terms of the
perpetual AT1 capital
notes and the
TLAC-eligible senior unsecured
debt instruments
issued.
The
debt
securities represent
downstream funding
that
substantially mirrors
the
terms of
TLAC-eligible
senior
unsecured debt instruments issued. These instruments are measured at cost value.
›
Refer to Note 13 for more information
Derivative instruments
UBS Group
AG uses
derivative instruments to
manage exposures
to foreign
currency risks
from investments
in foreign
subsidiaries and exposures
to interest
rate risk
from certain
fixed-rate debt
instruments. The
derivative instruments are
entered into with UBS AG, mirroring the conditions of the transactions that they enter into with third parties.
Derivative instruments are measured at fair value based
on quoted market prices or other observable market prices
as of
the balance sheet date. Unrealized gains
and losses are recognized on the
balance sheet as
Accrued income and prepaid
expenses
and
Accrued expenses
and deferred
income
, respectively.
Corresponding gains
and losses
resulting from
fair
value changes are recognized in
Financial income
and
Financial expenses
, respectively.
Hedge accounting
UBS Group
AG applies
the following
hedge accounting
policies where
requirements on
risk management,
documentation
and effectiveness are met.
Fair value hedges of interest rate risk related to debt instruments
UBS
Group
AG
designates
certain
fixed-rate
issued
debt
instruments
and
fixed-to-floating
interest
rate
derivatives
as
hedged
items
and
hedging instruments,
respectively,
in
fair
value
hedge
accounting
relationships. The
hedged
risk
is
determined
as
the
change in
the
fair
value
of
the
issued
debt
instruments attributable
to
changes
in
the
designated
benchmark interest rates. The
effective portion of gains
and losses of the
hedging instruments is deferred
on the balance
sheet as
Accrued income
and prepaid expenses
or
Accrued expenses and deferred income
.
UBS Group AG standalone financial statements

Note 2
Accounting policies (continued)
Hedge accounting for Investments in subsidiaries
UBS Group
AG applies
hedge accounting
for certain
investments in
subsidiaries denominated
in currencies
other than
the
US
dollar,
which
are
designated
as
hedged
items.
For
this
purpose,
foreign
exchange
(FX)
derivatives,
mainly
FX
forwards and FX swaps, are used and designated
as hedging instruments. The hedged risk is determined as
the change
in the fair
value of the
hedged item arising
solely from changes
in spot FX
rates. Consequently, UBS
Group AG designates
the spot
element of
the FX
derivatives as
hedging instruments.
Changes in
the fair
value of
the hedging
instruments
attributable to changes in forward
points are not part of
a hedge accounting designation and
are recognized in
Financial
income
or
Financial expenses
in the income statement. The
effective portion of gains and
losses of these FX derivatives is
deferred on
the balance
sheet as
Accrued income
and prepaid
expenses
or
Accrued expenses
and deferred
income
to
the extent
no change
is recognized
in the
carrying amount
of the
hedged item
arising from
changes in
spot FX
rates.
Otherwise, the effective portion of gains and losses of these FX derivatives is matched with the corresponding valuation
adjustments of the hedged item
recorded in the income statement
and recognized either as
a reduction of
Impairment
of investments in subsidiaries
or as
Extraordinary income
.
Investments in subsidiaries
Investments
in
subsidiaries
are
equity
interests
that
are
held
to
carry
on
the
business
of
the
UBS
Group
or
for
other
strategic purposes. They include all subsidiaries directly held by UBS Group AG through which UBS conducts its business
on
a
global
basis.
The
investments
are
carried
at
cost
less
impairment
and
generally
measured
individually.
In
the
comparative period, until the
then-contemplated merger,
which became effective
on 31 May
2024, the investments in
UBS
AG
and
Credit
Suisse
AG
were
combined
as
a
valuation
unit
as
these
investments
were
economically
closely
interlinked.
The carrying
amount of
an investment
is tested
for impairment
when indicators
of a
potential decrease
in value
exist,
which include
significant operating
losses incurred
or a
severe depreciation
of the
currency in
which the
investment is
denominated. If an investment in a subsidiary is impaired,
its value is generally written down to the recoverable amount.
Subsequent recoveries in value are
recognized up to the original
cost value if, in
the opinion of management, forecasts
of future
probability provide sufficient
evidence that an
increased recoverable amount
is supported. Management
may
exercise its discretion as to what extent, and in which period, a recovery in value is recognized.

Long-term interest-bearing liabilities
Long-term interest-bearing liabilities include loss-absorbing capital notes and senior unsecured debt. They are presented
at nominal value.
Any difference
to nominal value,
e.g. premium, discount
or external costs
that are directly
related to
the issue,
is deferred
as
Other non-current
assets
or
Other long-term
liabilities
and amortized
to
Financial expenses
or

income
over
the
maturity
of
the
instrument

or

redemption
date,

Refer to Note 1 and Note 16 for more information
Treasury shares
Treasury
shares acquired
by UBS
Group AG
are recognized
at acquisition
cost and
are presented
as a
deduction from
shareholders’ equity.
Upon disposal of treasury
shares or settlement of
related share-based awards, any
realized gain or loss
is recognized in
Voluntary earnings
reserve
. Realized
gains and
losses from
settlement of
share-based awards
represent the
difference
between the acquisition cost of
the UBS Group AG shares
and the grant date fair
value of the share-based awards.
For
the year
ended 31 December
2025, a
net loss
of USD 391m
(CHF 310m) from
settlement of
share-based awards
was
recognized in
Voluntary earnings reserve
(2024 comparative period: net loss of USD 322m (CHF 291m)).
For UBS Group AG shares acquired by
a direct or indirect subsidiary, a
Reserve for treasury shares held by
subsidiaries
is
created in UBS Group AG’s equity.

Note 2
Accounting policies (continued)
Share-based and other deferred compensation plans
Share-based compensation plans
The
grant
date
fair
value
of
equity-settled
share-based
compensation
awards
granted
to
employees
is
generally
recognized
over the
vesting period
of the
awards.
Awards
granted by
UBS Group
AG in
the form
of UBS
Group
AG
shares and notional shares are settled by delivering UBS Group AG shares at vesting, except in jurisdictions where this is
not permitted
for legal or
tax reasons. They
are recognized as
Compensation-related long-term
liabilities
if vesting
is more
than 12 months
after the balance sheet
date, or as
Accrued expenses and
deferred income
if vesting is
within 12 months
of the balance
sheet date.
The amount
recognized is adjusted
for forfeiture assumptions,
such that
the amount
ultimately
recognized is based on
the number of
awards that meet the
related service conditions
at the vesting
date. The grant
date
fair value is based
on the UBS Group AG
share price on the date
of grant, taking into
consideration post-vesting sale and
hedge restrictions, dividend rights, non-vesting conditions, and market conditions, where applicable.
Upon settlement of
the share-based awards,
any realized gain
or loss on
the treasury shares
is recognized in
Voluntary
earnings reserve
. Realized gains and losses from settlement of share-based
awards represent the difference between the
acquisition cost of the UBS Group AG shares and the grant date fair value of the share-based awards.
Other deferred compensation plans
Deferred compensation plans
that are not
share-based, including DCCP
awards and awards
linked to the
performance
of investment funds, are accounted for as cash-settled awards. The present value or fair value of the amount payable to
employees that
is settled
in cash
is recognized
as a
liability generally over
the vesting
period, as
Compensation-related
long-term liabilities
if vesting
is more than
12 months
after the
balance sheet
date, and
as
Accrued expenses
and deferred
income
if vesting is within 12 months from
the balance sheet date. The liabilities are
remeasured at each balance sheet
date at
the present
value of the
corresponding DCCP
award and
the fair
value of
investment funds linked
to deferred
compensation awards. Gains
and losses resulting
from remeasurement of the
liabilities are recognized in
Other operating
income
and
Other operating expenses
, respectively.
Recharge of compensation expenses
Expenses
related
to
deferred
compensation
plans
are
recharged
by
UBS
Group
AG
to
its
subsidiaries
employing
the
personnel.
Upon
recharge,
UBS
Group
AG
recognizes
a
receivable
from
its
subsidiaries
corresponding
to
a
liability
representing its obligation toward the employees.
Dispensations in the standalone financial statements
As UBS
Group AG
prepares consolidated
financial statements
in accordance
with IFRS,
UBS Group
AG is
exempt from
various disclosures
in the
standalone financial
statements. The
dispensations include
the management
report and
the
statement of cash flows, as well as certain note disclosures.
Note 3
Investments in and merger of UBS AG and Credit Suisse AG
In the
comparative period,
until the
then-contemplated merger, which
became effective
on 31
May 2024,
the investments
of UBS
Group AG
in both
UBS AG
and Credit
Suisse AG
were aggregated
for impairment
(reversal) testing
purposes.
Such an aggregation (i.e. “valuation unit”) was
permitted under the accounting rules applicable
to UBS Group AG given
that at this
time UBS AG
and Credit Suisse
AG were closely
interlinked. The applicable accounting
rules also permitted
the
historic cost
value for
the
investment in
Credit
Suisse AG,
as
per the
former Credit
Suisse Group
AG standalone
financial statements, to be combined with the cost value for the investment in UBS AG. The
book value assigned to the
investment in the combined entity (UBS AG and Credit Suisse AG) of
USD 72,567m (CHF 65,898m) was below the cost
value under
these rules
and below
the recoverable
amount determined
at that
time by
using a
discounted cash
flow
model based on the business plan for the combined entity.

nominal value under the terms set out below:

The amount
of USD 1,838m presented
is based on
the total number
of shares issued
as of
31 December 2025. If the final total
amount of the dividend is higher
or lower, the
difference will be balanced through the
appropriation to the voluntary earnings
reserve.

shares held by

as of the
record date.
The amount
of USD 1,838m presented
is based on
the total number
of shares issued
as of
31 December 2025.
2 For illustrative purposes, converted at the closing exchange
rate as of 31 December 2025.
As set out above,
half of the ordinary
dividend distribution of USD 1.10 (gross)
in cash per share
is payable out of
total
profit, and the other half is payable out of the capital contribution reserve. The portion of the dividend paid out of total
profit will be subject to a 35% Swiss withholding tax.
The ordinary dividend distribution is declared
in US dollars. Shareholders whose shares
are held through SIX SIS
AG will
receive dividends
in Swiss
francs, based
on a
published exchange
rate calculated
up to
five decimal
places on
the day
prior to the
ex-dividend date. Shareholders
holding shares through
DTC or directly
registered in the
US share register
with
Computershare will be paid dividends in US dollars.
In May 2024, the US
changed its settlement practice
from t+2, as common in
Europe, to t+1, to reduce
the risk between
the execution
and settlement
of a
trade. To
align the
two different
settlement practices regarding
the corporate event
key dates, UBS decided to set the ex-dividend date on the NYSE one day later than on the SIX Swiss Exchange. Provided
that
the
proposed
dividend
distribution
out
of
the
total
profit
and
the
capital
contribution
reserve
is
approved,
the
payment of USD 1.10 (or
the Swiss franc equivalent)
per share will be made
on 23 April 2026 to
holders of shares on the
record date 22 April 2026
on the SIX Swiss Exchange
and the NYSE. However, on
the SIX Swiss Exchange, the
shares will
be
traded
ex-dividend
as
of
21
April
2026
and,
accordingly,
the
last
day
on
which
the
shares
may
be
traded
with
entitlement to
receive the
dividend will
be 20
April 2026.
On the
NYSE, the
shares will
be traded
ex-dividend as
of 22 April
2026, and the last
day on which the
shares may be
traded with entitlement
to receive the dividend
will be 21 April 2026.
