Interim Report of the Executive Board

Nancy McKinstry, CEO and Chair of the Executive Board, commented: “We delivered 5% organic growth in the first half, in line with our expectations, driven by sustained 7% organic growth in recurring revenue streams. Non-recurring revenues turned down, partly due increased macro-economic uncertainty. The margin continues to benefit from mix shift towards expert solutions as well as initiatives to manage expenses and drive long term efficiencies. Across the group, we made significant progress in integrating generative AI capabilities into our platforms and we are investing in agentic AI solutions that will bring further benefits to our customers.”

Full-Year 2025 Outlook

We have updated our guidance for full-year 2025. We continue to expect full-year 2025 organic growth to be broadly in line with the prior year. Despite the adverse USD exchange rate movement, the absence of last year’s pension gain, and additional restructuring, we now expect the adjusted operating profit margin in reported currency to be near the top end of our range, supported by most divisions. We expect diluted adjusted EPS to grow in mid- to high-single digits in constant currencies. Due to the USD exchange rate movement, we now expect ROIC in reported currency to be around 18%.

In 2024, Wolters Kluwer generated over 60% of its revenues and adjusted operating profit in North America. As a rule of thumb, based on our 2024 currency profile, each 1 U.S. cent move in the average €/$ exchange rate for the year causes an opposite change of approximately 4.5 euro cents in diluted adjusted EPS. If current exchange rates persist, the U.S. dollar rate will have a negative effect on results reported in euros for the remainder of this year.

Restructuring costs are included in adjusted operating profit. We now expect 2025 restructuring costs to be in the range of €20-35 million (FY 2024: €28 million). Following the recent acquisition of Brightflag and the Eurobond issue in June, we now expect adjusted net financing costs¹ in constant currencies to increase to approximately €95-100 million. We continue to expect the benchmark tax rate on adjusted pre-tax profits to rise within the range of 23.0%-24.0% (FY 2024: 23.1%). Capital expenditures are expected to be in the range of 5.0%-6.0% of total revenues (FY 2024: 5.3%). We continue to expect the full-year 2025 cash conversion ratio to be within 95%-100% (FY 2024: 102%).

Our guidance assumes no additional significant change to the scope of operations, apart from acquisitions or divestitures already completed. We may make further acquisitions or disposals which can be dilutive to margins, earnings, and ROIC in the near term.

2025 outlook by division

Our guidance for full-year 2025 organic revenue growth by division is as follows:

Health: we continue to expect FY 2025 organic growth to be in line with or slightly below prior year (FY 2024: 6%).

Tax & Accounting: we continue to expect FY 2025 organic growth to be in line with prior year (FY 2024: 7%).

Financial & Corporate Compliance: we expect FY 2025 organic growth to be below prior year (FY 2024: 5% pro forma²), due to weaker transactional revenues and suspension of the Corporate Transparency Act (CTA).

Legal Regulatory: we continue to expect FY 2025 organic growth to be in line with prior year (FY 2024: 5%).

Corporate Performance & ESG: we continue to expect FY 2025 organic growth to be above prior year (FY 2024: 6% pro forma²) reflecting higher growth for the CCH Tagetik CPM platform.

Progress against 2025-2027 strategic plan

In February 2025, we announced our 2025-2027 strategic plan, which sets out three priorities:

• Scale expert solutions: we will continue to grow our expert solutions, increasing penetration and promoting cloud-based software as a service (SaaS) revenue models. We are focused on embedding artificial intelligence (AI) and advanced data analytics into our solutions and pursuing ways to leverage our content and data for customers.
• Accelerate growth: we intend to pursue high-growth adjacencies with a build, buy, or partner approach. We will focus on accelerating the pace of innovation to advance customer productivity and outcomes while further developing partnerships to extend our market reach.
• Evolve capabilities: we intend to elevate our go-to-market capabilities and enhance sales effectiveness. We intend to embrace new technologies to drive operational performance and to continue fostering a great place to work and best-in-class sustainability performance.

In the first half of 2025, we made progress on all fronts. Expert solutions accounted for 59% of total revenues (HY 2024: 59%) and grew 6% organically (HY 2024: 8%). Our software offerings, which are included in expert solutions, accounted for 46% of total revenues and grew 6% organically.

Advancing cloud-based solutions. Recurring cloud software revenues accounted for 45% of total software revenues and exceed on-premise software license and maintenance fees (36%). In the first half, recurring cloud software revenues grew 15% organically (HY 2024: 16%). Advancing cloud-native architectures is of strategic importance to facilitate rapid integration of advanced AI technologies to support complex professional workflows.

Integrating generative and agentic AI into workflows. We made significant progress in rolling out generative AI features across both expert solutions and information platforms, building on more than 10 years of experience in embedding AI into our products. A significant majority of our revenues today are AI-enabled, with our major product suites now also offering generative AI features. Generative AI capabilities enhance our customers’ workflows, providing increased productivity and improved outcomes, while also supporting retention and upsell rates, attracting new customers, and keeping our solutions competitive. Solutions such as VitalLaw AI and InView Legal are supporting attorneys with GenAI-enabled search, summarization, drafting, and content creation. And, we will soon be introducing a new generative AI version of UpToDate that leverages clinical intelligence to understand complex medical queries, provide transparent answers, and inform diagnostic decisions.

We have also been making significant investments in agentic AI capabilities and have several agentic solutions in development or in customer beta programs. For example, in Tax & Accounting, we are integrating AI agents into our cloud-based solution, CCH Axcess, to automate complex workflows, enhance decision-making, and deliver productivity gains to our clients. In Corporate Performance and ESG, we launched TeamMate+ AI Editor, an agentic writing engine that helps internal auditors improve the quality of documentation. Underpinning these developments is our proprietary, patent-pending AI-Enablement Platform designed to support rapid deployment of agentic solutions.

Extending into higher-growth market segments. Secondly, we made important investments in higher-growth adjacent markets. The acquisitions of Registered Agent Solutions, Inc. (RASi) in Financial & Corporate Compliance and Brightflag in Legal & Regulatory augment our organic efforts to build out our positions in the mid-sized corporate market for legal services and legal spend management solutions. We also added partnerships to extend our reach: Health is partnering with Microsoft to integrate UpToDate with Dragon Copilot for healthcare workflows. In Corporate Performance & ESG, Enablon established a partnership with Enterprise Health to enhance our EHS offerings to support organizations in delivering safer, healthier workplaces.

Investing to evolve our go-to-market. We made progress on upgrading systems to further enhance sales effectiveness and customer support. For example, in Tax & Accounting, we have enhanced our e-commerce channels to address the growing share of firms preferring digital renewals.

Financial policy, capital allocation, net debt, and liquidity

We use our free cash flow to invest in the business organically and through acquisitions, to maintain optimal leverage, and to provide returns to shareholders. We regularly assess our financial position and evaluate the appropriate level of debt in view of our expectations for cash flow, investment plans, interest rates, and capital market conditions.

As we execute on our strategic priorities, we aim to maintain leverage in the range of 1.5x to 2.5x, providing a strong and secure financial foundation for our business. We may temporarily deviate from this range, but our high proportion of recurring revenues and resilient free cash flows give us the ability to rapidly return to this range.

Dividend policy and interim dividend 2025

Wolters Kluwer remains committed to a progressive dividend policy, under which we aim to increase the dividend per share in euros each year, independent of currency fluctuations. The payout ratio³ can therefore vary from year to year. Proposed annual increases in the dividend per share consider our financial performance, market conditions, and our need for financial flexibility. The policy takes into account the characteristics of our business, our expectations for future cash flows, and our plans for organic investment in innovation and productivity, or for acquisitions. We balance these factors with the objective of maintaining a strong balance sheet.

The interim dividend for 2025 has been set at €0.93 per share, 40% of prior year total dividend. Shareholders can choose to reinvest both interim and final dividends by purchasing additional Wolters Kluwer shares through the Dividend Reinvestment Plan (DRIP) administered by ABN AMRO Bank N.V.

Progress on 2025 share buyback

As a matter of policy since 2012, Wolters Kluwer will offset the dilution caused by our annual incentive share issuance with share repurchases (Anti-Dilution Policy). In addition, from time to time when appropriate, we return capital to shareholders through share buyback programs. Shares repurchased by the company are added to and held as treasury shares and are either cancelled or utilized to meet future obligations arising from share-based incentive plans.

On February 26, 2025, we announced our intention to repurchase shares for up to €1 billion during 2025. In the year to date, up to and including July 29, 2025, we have repurchased €637 million in shares (4,221,191 shares at an average price of €150.88).

For the period July 31, 2025, up to and including November 3, 2025, we have signed a third-party mandate to execute approximately €175 million in share buybacks on our behalf, within the limits of relevant laws and regulations (in particular Regulation (EU) 596/2014) and the company’s Articles of Association. The maximum number of shares which may be repurchased will not exceed the authorization granted by the Annual General Meeting of Shareholders.

Assuming global economic conditions do not deteriorate substantially, we believe this level of share buybacks leaves us with ample headroom to support our dividend plans, to sustain organic investment, and to make selective acquisitions. The share repurchase program may be suspended, discontinued, or modified at any time.

Share cancellation 2025

At the 2025 Annual General Meeting on May 15, 2025, shareholders approved a resolution to cancel for capital reduction purposes any or all ordinary shares held in treasury or to be acquired by the company, up to a maximum of 10% of issued share capital.

As of July 29, 2025, Wolters Kluwer held 8.0 million shares in treasury (equivalent to approximately 3.4% of issued share capital). As authorized by shareholders, the Executive Board has determined the number of ordinary shares to be cancelled this year is 6.0 million. Wolters Kluwer intends to cancel these shares in the second half of 2025. The remaining treasury shares will be retained to meet future obligations under share-based incentive plans.

Net debt, leverage, credit facility, and liquidity position

Net debt on June 30, 2025, was €4,274 million, up from €3,134 million on December 31, 2024, due to dividends paid, share buybacks, and acquisition spending (mainly RASi and Brightflag).

The net-debt-to-EBITDA ratio based on twelve months’ rolling EBITDA to June 30, 2025, increased to 2.1x (December 31, 2024: 1.6x).

Gross debt of €5,247 million includes the €500 million Eurobond (7-year term; 3.375% annual coupon) issued on March 20, 2025 and the €500 million Eurobond (5.25-year term; 3.000% annual coupon) issued on June 30, 2025. As of June 30, 2025, net cash available was €395 million⁴.

As of June 30, 2025, we had drawn €150 million on our €600 million multi-currency revolving credit facility (this amount was subsequently repaid in July 2025). We recently exercised an option to extend this credit facility by one year such that it will now mature in 2030. We have one remaining option to extend the facility by a year.

Adjusted net financing costs increased to €38 million (HY 2024: €25 million), reflecting higher debt and a higher average effective cost of debt. Included in adjusted net financing costs was a €2 million net foreign exchange gain (HY 2024: €6 million net foreign exchange loss) mainly due to the translation of intercompany balances.

Adjusted profit before tax was €828 million (HY 2024: €741 million), up 11% in constant currencies. The benchmark effective tax rate on adjusted profit before tax increased to 23.8% (HY 2024: 23.6%), due to an unfavorable movement in our deferred tax position.

Adjusted net profit was €631 million (HY 2024: €566 million), an increase of 11% in constant currencies.

Diluted adjusted EPS was €2.70 (HY 2024: €2.36), up 14% in constant currencies, reflecting the increase in adjusted net profit and a 2.5% reduction in the diluted weighted average number of shares outstanding to 234.0 million (HY 2024: 240.1 million).

IFRS reported figures

Reported operating profit increased 11% to €765 million (HY 2024: €690 million), reflecting mix shift and cost efficiencies, partly offset by higher amortization and impairment of acquired intangible assets and acquisition-related costs.

Reported financing results amounted to a net cost of €39 million (HY 2024: €26 million cost) reflecting higher debt and a higher average effective cost of debt. The reported effective tax rate increased to 23.9% (HY 2024: 23.4%) due to the unfavorable movement in our deferred tax position and non-tax-deductible acquisition-related costs.

As a result, net profit for the period increased 9% to €553 million (HY 2024: €509 million). Diluted EPS increased 11% to €2.36 (HY 2024: €2.12), benefitting from the reduction in weighted average number of shares outstanding.

Cash flow

Adjusted operating cash flow was €738 million (HY 2024: €624 million), up 19% in constant currencies, due to the increase in adjusted operating profit and higher cash conversion. Working capital outflows were €110 million (HY 2024: €117 million outflow), below the prior period which had included large vendor payments. Capital expenditures were stable at €147 million (4.8% of revenues). Cash payments related to leases, including lease interest paid, amounted to €33 million (HY 2024: €35 million). Depreciation of physical assets, amortization and impairment of internally developed software, and depreciation of right-of-use assets totaled €163 million (HY 2024: €158 million). The cash conversion ratio increased to 85% (HY 2024: 82%).

Net interest paid, excluding lease interest paid, increased to €53 million (HY 2024: €23 million), due to the initial coupon payment on the 5-year Eurobond issued in March 2024. Income tax paid increased to €192 million (HY 2024: €171 million), reflecting higher adjusted profit before tax as well as the timing of tax refunds and prepayments. Net cash outflows related to restructuring were €2 million (HY 2024: net outflow of €2 million). As a result, adjusted free cash flow was €505 million (HY 2024: €445 million), up 13% in constant currencies.

Total acquisition spending, net of cash acquired and including transaction costs, was €833 million (HY 2024: €2 million), mainly relating to the acquisitions of Registered Agent Solutions, Inc. on March 13, 2025 and of Brightflag on June 11, 2025. See Note 7 for more detail.

Dividends paid amounted to €297 million (HY 2024: €276 million) excluding dividend tax of €52 million (HY 2024: €48 million) which was paid in July 2025. Cash deployed towards share repurchases in the first six months amounted to €509 million (HY 2024: €516 million).

Sustainability developments

In 2025, we are focused on programs designed to support employee engagement, inclusion, belonging, and general well-being, with a particular emphasis on initiatives that assist employees in developing their skills, strengthen their workplace connections, and reinforce their alignment with our mission and purpose. Our workforce turnover rate⁵ was 10% (HY 2024: 10%) with voluntary turnover at 7% (HY 2024: 7%). In January 2025, we launched a microlearning program for employees focused on generative AI foundations. In June, we staged a well-attended Global Well-Being Day with in-person and virtual events designed to foster employee connections, resilience, and belonging.

Our global real estate and facilities management team continued executing on plans to deliver a further reduction in our office footprint while at the same time improving workspaces for employees. As of June 30, 2025, our real estate footprint measured in square meters was reduced by 5% on an underlying basis compared to the position at year-end 2024. The real estate program has been the fundamental driver helping us advance towards our target of a 60% reduction in scope 1 and 2 emissions by 2030 from a 2019 base year.

We have started using a supplier sustainability assessment tool to enhance our insights into sustainability risks across our supply chain and support engagement with vendors on decarbonization and labor practices. In April 2025, the SBTi validated our net-zero targets, which include a 90% absolute reduction in scope 1, 2, and key scope 3 greenhouse gas emissions by 2050 from a 2019 base year. We aim to achieve net-zero greenhouse gas emissions across the value chain by reducing direct emissions related to our offices, our suppliers, our business travel and commuting.

Our ESG risk rating from Morningstar Sustainalytics stands at 12.2 currently, and we remain among the top 5% of companies in the Software & Services sector globally. Our CDP (Carbon Disclosure Project) score was recently improved to B.

Divisional Review

Group-wide organic revenue growth was 5%, with all divisions delivering positive organic growth. Group adjusted operating profit margin increased, led by Health, Legal & Regulatory, and Tax & Accounting.

Total recurring revenues, which include subscriptions and other renewing revenue streams, accounted for 84% of total revenues (HY 2024: 82%) and grew 7% organically (HY 2024: 7%). Within recurring revenues, digital and service subscriptions grew 7% organically (HY 2024: 8%). Total non-recurring revenues turned down, declining 4% organically (HY 2024: 2% growth). Within non-recurring revenues, Financial & Corporate Compliance transactional revenues increased 1% organically (HY 2024: 3%) while Legal & Regulatory transactional revenues (ELM) increased 7% organically (HY 2024: 11%). Print book revenues declined 11% (HY 2024: 2% growth). Other non-recurring revenues, mainly on-premise licenses and software implementation services, declined 9% organically (HY 2024: 1% growth). See Appendix 3 for details by division.

Health

• Organic growth 4%, led by Clinical Solutions up 6% organically.
• Learning, Research & Practice grew 1% organically (+5% ex-print) against a challenging comparable.
• Margin mainly reflects ongoing mix shift, expense management and efficiency programs.

Wolters Kluwer Health revenues increased 3% in constant currencies, partly reflecting 2024 divestments. Organic growth was 4% (HY 2024: 6%).

Adjusted operating profit increased 17% in constant currencies and 15% on an organic basis. The adjusted operating profit margin increased 410 basis-points, reflecting the absence of one-time product write-offs incurred in the prior year, the ongoing mix shift towards clinical solutions, discretionary expense management and longer term efficiency programs. IFRS operating profit increased 19% overall, reflecting the increase in adjusted operating profit and a reduced amortization of acquired identifiable intangible assets.

Clinical Solutions (58% of divisional revenues) delivered 6% organic revenue growth (HY 2024: 8%), slowing moderately due to timing of renewals, the leap year effect, and product sunsets. In the first half, we made good progress in moving our U.S. institutional customers to the new UpToDate Enterprise Edition, despite on-going pressures on hospital budgets. UpToDate Enterprise, which was commercially launched in October 2024, adds data analytics and AI-enhanced search. In June 2025, we began introducing UpToDate Enterprise in Europe. UpToDate Lexidrug and Medi-Span recorded strong organic growth, driven by new sales.

Health Learning, Research & Practice (42% of divisional revenues) recorded 1% organic revenue growth (HY 2024: 4%). Excluding print, organic growth would have been 5% (HY 2024: 5%). As expected, our medical research unit recorded slower organic growth against a prior period which had benefitted from reaching full-scale distribution for the New England Journal of Medicine. In June 2025, we launched Ovid Guidelines AI, an agentic AI module which speeds the process of turning medical evidence into guidelines for evidence-based practice. Print journal subscriptions continued to decline, as expected. In learning and practice, organic growth slowed due to a 17% downturn in print books. Our digital solutions, including Lippincott CoursePoint, saw accelerated organic growth. Lippincott Ready for NCLEX, our new solution for NCLEX⁶ testing and review, was enhanced with AI-enabled remediation and personalized improvement plans. In May 2025, we acquired nursing courseware provider, IntelliLearn.

Tax & Accounting

• Organic growth 6%, with good performance in both North America and Europe.
• Recurring revenues (92% of division) up 7% organically, with recurring cloud software up 17%.
• Margin increase reflects expense management partly offset by increased investment.

Tax & Accounting revenues increased 9% in constant currencies, partly reflecting the 2024 acquisition of the Isabel Group’s cloud-based financial workflow solutions. Organic growth was 6% (HY 2024: 7%).

Adjusted operating profit increased 14% in constant currencies and 11% on an underlying basis. The adjusted operating profit margin increased, reflecting operational gearing and discretionary expense management, partly offset by increased investment. IFRS operating profit increased 12%, largely reflecting the development of adjusted operating profit.

Tax & Accounting North America (60% of divisional revenues) delivered 6% organic growth (HY 2024: 7%) driven by double-digit organic growth in our cloud software solutions in the U.S. (CCH Axcess) and Canada (CCH iFirm). Revenues from our cloud software solutions now exceed those of our on-premise applications as customers continued to migrate to the cloud versions and adopt additional workflow modules. Revenues from outsourced professional services and ancillary fees declined against a challenging comparable. Our U.S. publishing revenues were stable as growth in digital solutions was offset by print decline. In Canada, CCH iFirm launched integration with CCH AnswerConnect, allowing clients seamless access to AI-enabled tax research. We introduced an enhancement to CCH Validate, which leverages block chain technology to streamline audit workflows.

Tax & Accounting Europe (36% of divisional revenues) delivered 7% organic growth (HY 2024: 7%), with good performance across all regions. Revenue growth was driven by sustained double-digit organic growth in our cloud and hybrid-cloud software for tax advisors and small-medium enterprise customers (SMEs). In Italy, we introduced a solution for SMEs including a connection to the Genya cloud solution for tax advisors. The pre- and post-accounting workflow solutions acquired from the Isabel Group in 2024 are performing well. In the UK, our CCH iFirm practice management platform was enhanced with two additional cloud-based modules.

Tax & Accounting Asia Pacific & Rest of World (4% of divisional revenues) revenues were stable on an organic basis (HY 2024: 1% decline) as continued weakness in China was offset by growth in Australia and New Zealand (CCH iFirm and CCH iKnowConnect).

Financial & Corporate Compliance

• Organic growth 4%, supported by 6% growth in recurring revenues.
• Trends in transactional and other non-recurring revenues (32% of division total) deteriorated.
• Margin decline reflects increased investment partly offset by expense management.

Financial & Corporate Compliance revenues increased 6% in constant currencies, including initial revenues of RASi, acquired on March 13, 2025. Organic growth was 4% (HY 2024: 4% pro forma), as 6% growth in recurring revenues was partly offset by 1% decline in non-recurring revenues (HY 2024: 2% growth pro forma).

Adjusted operating profit increased 3% in constant currencies and declined 1% on an organic basis. The adjusted operating profit margin reduced by 120 basis points, reflecting increased investment, partly offset by discretionary expense management. IFRS operating profit decreased 2%, reflecting the development of adjusted operating profit combined with higher amortization and acquisition-related costs.

In Legal Services (55% of divisional revenues), CT Corporation delivered 6% organic growth (HY 2024: 6%), led by 8% organic growth in recurring service subscriptions (HY 2024: 6%). Legal Services transactional revenues slowed to 2% organic growth (HY 2024: 5%), reflecting subdued M&A activity. RASi, which serves mid-sized U.S. corporations, is performing in line with expectations.

In Financial Services (45% of divisional revenues), organic growth was 1% (HY 2024: 2% pro forma²), as 3% organic growth in recurring revenues (HY 2024: 4% pro forma) was partly offset by 4% organic decline in non-recurring revenues (HY 2024: 1% decline pro forma). Our U.S. banking compliance solutions delivered steady organic growth, led by eOriginal and insurance solutions. Lien Solutions transactional volumes turned down compared to modest growth a year ago. Finance, Risk & Regulatory Reporting revenues reflected lower professional services.

On July 21, 2025, we announced an agreement to divest the Finance, Risk & Regulatory Reporting unit to Regnology Group GmbH (Regnology) for an enterprise value of approximately €450 million, subject to closing conditions and contractual adjustments. The transaction is subject to regulatory approval and employee consultations and is expected to complete in the fourth quarter of 2025. We expect to record a non-benchmark capital gain upon completion. The use of net after-tax proceeds from the divestment will be determined after closing. Finance, Risk & Regulatory Reporting had revenues of €123 million in 2024.

Enterprise Legal Management (ELM) Solutions recorded low single-digit organic growth (HY 2024: 6%), supported by growth in legal spend volumes. Its AI-enabled solutions, LegalVIEW Bill Analyzer and Legal Collaborator, added new customers. On June 11, 2025, Legal & Regulatory completed the acquisition of Ireland-based Brightflag, a global provider of AI-powered legal spend and matter management software for mid-size corporations. See Note 7 for more detail.

Corporate Performance & ESG

• Organic revenue growth 7%, with recurring cloud software revenues up 17%.

Recurring cloud software revenues grew 18% organically (HY 2024: 23%), driven by new customer additions and upselling of modules such as safety and environmental management. Non-recurring revenues (mainly on-premise software licenses) were stable compared to modest growth a year ago. Organic revenue growth was strongest in Europe and Asia Pacific.

Our Corporate Performance, Corporate Tax, and Audit & Assurance (69% of divisional revenues) businesses, in aggregate, grew 5% organically (HY 2024: 8% pro forma). The CCH Tagetik Corporate Performance Management platform recorded 5% organic growth (HY 2024: 11%), as double-digit growth in recurring cloud software was partly offset by a decline in non-recurring revenues including on-premise software licenses. Cloud software growth was driven by new customer wins, adoption of additional modules such as Planning and ESG Reporting, as well as customers upgrading to the AI-enabled CCH Tagetik Intelligent Platform. CCH Tagetik launched a CBAM⁷ module to support EU and UK companies in reporting emissions on their imports. Our Corporate Tax and Audit & Assurance units recorded single-digit organic growth, driven by growth in their cloud software solutions.

Corporate

Net corporate expenses were reduced by 8% in constant currencies, reflecting lower third-party expenses.

Risk Management

In our 2024 Annual Report, the company described certain risk categories that could have a material adverse effect on its operations and financial position. Those risk categories are deemed to be incorporated and repeated in this report by reference. In the company’s view, the nature and potential impact of these risk categories on the business are not materially different for the second half of 2025.

Statement by the Executive Board

The Executive Board is responsible for the preparation of the 2025 Half-Year Report, which includes the Interim Report of the Executive Board and the condensed consolidated interim financial statements for the six months ended June 30, 2025. The condensed consolidated interim financial statements for the six months ended June 30, 2025, are prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) as adopted by the European Union. The responsibility of the Executive Board includes selecting and applying appropriate accounting policies and making accounting estimates that are reasonable in the circumstances.

The Interim Report of the Executive Board endeavors to present a fair review of the situation of the business at the balance sheet date and of the state of affairs in the half-year under review. Such an overview contains a selection of some of the main developments in the first six months of the financial year and can never be exhaustive. This Interim Report also contains the current expectations of the Executive Board for the second half of the financial year. With respect to these expectations, reference is made to the disclaimer about forward-looking statements on page 37 of this half-year report. As required by provision 5:25d (2)(c) of the Dutch Financial Markets Supervision Act (Wet op het financieel toezicht) and on the basis of the foregoing, the Executive Board confirms that to its knowledge:

• The condensed consolidated interim financial statements for the six months ended June 30, 2025, give a true and fair view of the assets, liabilities, financial position, and profit or loss of the company and the undertakings included in the consolidation taken as a whole; and
• The Interim Report of the Executive Board includes a fair overview of the situation at the balance sheet date, the course of affairs during the first six months of the financial year of the company, and the undertakings included in the consolidation taken as a whole, and the reasonably to be expected course of affairs for the second half of 2025 as well as an indication of important events that have occurred during the six months ended June 30, 2025, and their impact on the condensed consolidated interim financial statements, together with a description of the principal risks and uncertainties for the second half of 2025, and also includes the major related parties transactions entered into during the six months ended June 30, 2025.

Notes to the unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements

Note 1        Reporting entity

Wolters Kluwer N.V. (the company) with its subsidiaries (together referred to as ‘the group’, and individually as ‘group entities’) is a global provider of information, software solutions, and services for professionals in the health, tax and accounting, financial and corporate compliance, legal and regulatory, and corporate performance and ESG sectors. Our expert solutions combine deep domain knowledge with technology to deliver both content and workflow automation to drive improved outcomes and productivity for our customers.

These unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements (interim financial statements) for the six months ended June 30, 2025, comprise the group and the group’s interests in associates.

Note 2        Basis of preparation

Statement of compliance
These interim financial statements have been prepared in accordance with International Accounting Standards (IAS) 34 Interim Financial Reporting, as adopted by the European Union. As such, the financial statements do not include all the information required for a complete set of IFRS financial statements. However, selected explanatory notes are included to explain events and transactions that are significant to get an understanding of the changes in the group’s financial position and performance since the last annual consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2024.

The interim financial statements for the six months period ended June 30, 2025, have been abridged from Wolters Kluwer’s 2024 Financial statements as part of the 2024 Annual Report. These interim financial statements have not been audited or reviewed by the external auditor. The interim financial statements were authorized for issuance by the Executive Board and Supervisory Board on July 29, 2025.

Accounting policies
The accounting policies applied in these interim financial statements are the same as those applied in the 2024 Financial statements, apart from the effect of the following new accounting standards and amendments which became effective as of January 1, 2025:

• Lack of exchangeability (amendments to IAS 21).

These amendments did not have any impact on the amounts recognized in the current or prior periods and are not expected to significantly affect future periods.

Effect of forthcoming accounting standards
A number of new standards and amendments are not yet effective for annual reporting periods beginning on or after January 1, 2025, and have not been early adopted in these interim financial statements. As disclosed in the Annual Report 2024, IFRS 18 will not change how we recognize and measure items in the financial statements. However, it will affect the way we present and disclose information in our financial statements.

Functional and presentation currency
The interim financial statements are presented in euros, which is the company’s functional and presentation currency. Unless otherwise indicated, the financial information in these interim financial statements is in euros and has been rounded to the nearest million.

Judgments and estimates
The preparation of the interim financial statements in conformity with IFRS requires management to make judgments, estimates, and assumptions that affect the application of policies and reported amounts of assets, liabilities, income, and expense.

In preparing these interim financial statements, the significant judgments made by management in applying the group’s accounting policies and the key sources of estimation and uncertainty were the same as those applied to the 2024 Financial statements (reference is made to Note 3 – Accounting estimates and judgments of the 2024 Financial statements).

The estimates and underlying assumptions are based on historical experience and other factors that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis of making the judgments about carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not clear from other sources. Actual results may differ from those estimates and may result in material adjustments in the next financial period(s).

Reference is also made to Note 29 – Financial risk management of the 2024 Financial statements, which outlines Wolters Kluwer’s exposure to a variety of risks, including market risk, currency risk, interest rate risk, liquidity risk, and credit risk. These risks have not substantially changed since the issuance of our 2024 Annual Report.

Note 3                Seasonality

The overall impact of seasonality on group revenues and costs is limited. Revenue recognition does not always follow the pattern of cash flows as the revenues for certain license contracts are deferred.

Note 4                Benchmark figures

Wherever used in these interim financial statements, the term ‘adjusted’ refers to figures adjusted for non-benchmark items and, where applicable, amortization and impairment of goodwill and acquired identifiable intangible assets.

Adjusted figures are non-IFRS compliant financial figures, but are internally regarded as key performance indicators to measure the underlying performance of the business. These figures are presented as additional information and do not replace the information in the consolidated interim statement of profit or loss and in the consolidated interim statement of cash flows. The term ‘adjusted’ is not a defined term under IFRS.

On May 30, 2025, Wolters Kluwer Health acquired IntelliLearn Pty Ltd. (IntelliLearn), a provider of online courseware solutions for nursing schools in Australia and the U.S., for €7 million in cash. IntelliLearn will become part of Wolters Kluwer’s Health, Learning, Research & Practice (HLRP) business, a leader in nursing education and practice solutions. Founded in 2010 and based in Adelaide, Australia, IntelliLearn’s cloud-based solutions are used by educational institutions in Australia, New Zealand, Canada, and the U.S. The company brought seven full-time employees to Wolters Kluwer Health as well as a network of contract workers.

On June 11, 2025, Wolters Kluwer Legal & Regulatory acquired Brightflag, a global cloud-based provider of AI-powered legal spend and matter management software, for €422 million in cash and deferred consideration of €12 million. The acquisition will strengthen Wolters Kluwer Legal & Regulatory’s presence among mid-size corporations in the U.S. and Europe. Wolters Kluwer Legal & Regulatory ELM Solutions traditionally serves large corporations and their law firms. Founded in 2014, Brightflag is an AI-powered legal operations platform designed to streamline matter management, control legal spend, and enhance collaboration between corporate legal departments and outside counsel. The company has 155 full-time employees who joined Wolters Kluwer’s Legal & Regulatory division.

In the first half of 2025, acquisition-related costs were €17 million (HY 2024: €1 million).

Acquisition-related results

The fair value of the identifiable assets and liabilities will be revised if new information, obtained within one year from the acquisition date, about facts and circumstances that existed at the acquisition date, causes adjustments to the above amounts, or for any additional provisions that existed at the acquisition date.

The goodwill relating to acquisitions represents future economic benefits specific to the group arising from assets that do not qualify for separate recognition as intangible assets. This includes expected new customers who generate revenue streams in the future, revenues generated because of new capabilities of the acquired product platforms, as well as expected synergies that will arise following the acquisitions.

Of the goodwill recognized in 2025, none was deductible for income tax purposes (HY 2024: none).

Divestments
Net disposal proceeds were immaterial in the first half of 2025, and related to the sale of certain assets in the Financial & Corporate Compliance division (HY 2024: nil).

Note 8                Assets/liabilities classified as held for sale

In September 2024, Wolters Kluwer Health completed the divestment of its continuing medical education provider Learner’s Digest International (LDI), previously classified as an asset held for sale.

On March 20, 2025, the group issued a new €500 million seven-year senior unsecured Eurobond. The bonds were sold at an issue price of 99.278 per cent and carry an annual coupon of 3.375 per cent. The securities were placed with a broad range of institutional investors across Europe. The notes are rated A3 by Moody’s. The net proceeds of the offering will be used for general corporate purposes. The bonds are listed on the Official List of the Luxembourg Stock Exchange.

On June 30, 2025, the group issued a new €500 million five-year senior unsecured Eurobond. The bonds were sold at an issue price of 99.975 per cent and carry an annual coupon of 3.000 per cent. The securities were placed with a broad range of institutional investors across Europe. The notes are rated A- by S&P Global Ratings.

As of June 30, 2025, the group has drawn €150 million on the €600 million multi-currency revolving credit facility (this amount was subsequently repaid in July 2025). The group recently exercised an option to extend this credit facility by one year such that it will now mature in 2030. The group has one remaining option to extend the facility by a year.

Note 10        Equity, LTIP, and dividends

The group made progress on the share buyback program of up to €1,000 million which was previously announced for 2025. In 2025, up to and including July 29, 2025, the group has completed repurchases of €637 million (4.2 million ordinary shares at an average share price of €150.88).

For the period starting July 31, 2025, up to and including November 3, 2025, the group has now engaged third parties to execute a maximum of €175 million in share buybacks on the group’s behalf, within the limits of relevant laws and regulations (in particular Regulation (EU) 596/2014) and Wolters Kluwer’s Articles of Association.

Shares repurchased are added to and held as treasury shares and will be used for capital reduction purposes and to meet obligations arising from share-based incentive plans. In 2025, the group used 0.4 million shares held in treasury for the vesting of the LTIP grant 2022-24, the second tranches of the Restricted Stock Units (RSU) 2023 plan, and the first tranches of the RSU 2024 plan.

In the first six months of 2025, treasury shares were used for the vesting of Long-Term Incentive Plan (LTIP) shares; no new shares were issued. The LTIP 2022-24 vested on December 31, 2024. Total Shareholder Return (TSR) ranked fourth relative to the peer group of 15 companies, resulting in a payout of 125% of the conditional base number of shares awarded to the Executive Board and senior management. The EPS- and ROIC-related shares resulted in a pay-out of 145% and 150%, respectively. A total of 348,299 shares were released on February 27, 2025.

Under the 2025-27 LTIP grant, 235,012 shares were conditionally awarded to the Executive Board and other senior managers in the first six months of 2025. In the first six months of 2025, a total of 30,418 shares were forfeited under the long-term incentive plans.

RSU shares are granted and vest over time (with 1 year, 2 years, and 3 years vesting periods), vesting is conditioned on continued employment. There are no performance conditions that need to be met for the RSU shares to vest. Under the 2025-2027 RSU grant, 29,821 shares were awarded to key employees (in 2024: 31,314). In the first six months of 2025, a total of 2,265 shares were forfeited under the RSU plans (2024: 632) and 21,900 shares were released (2024: 11,927).

A final dividend of €1.50 per share was approved at the Annual General Meeting of Shareholders in May 2025 and was paid in the second quarter. The final dividend brings the total dividend over the 2024 financial year to €2.33 per share, an increase of 12% compared to the 2023 dividend. The 2024 dividend of €2.33 per share amounting to €545 million (2023 dividend: €500 million) was fully distributed in cash. This 2024 dividend was paid in two parts, an interim dividend of €196 million in the second half of 2024 and a final dividend of
€349 million in the first half of 2025 (€297 million, before dividend witholding tax of €52 million paid in July 2025).

For 2025, the interim dividend was set at 40% of the prior year’s total dividend, equivalent to €0.93 per share. The interim dividend will be paid in September.

At June 30, 2025, the Executive Board jointly held 528,886 shares (December 31, 2024: 487,952 shares), of which 459,852 shares (December 31, 2024: 427,202 shares) were held by Ms. McKinstry, 15,000 shares were held by Ms. Caywood, and 54,034 shares (December 31, 2024: 60,750 shares) by Mr. Entricken.

At June 30, 2025, Mrs. A.E. Ziegler held 2,513 Wolters Kluwer ADRs (December 31, 2024: 1,894 ADRs). None of the other members of the Supervisory Board held shares in Wolters Kluwer (December 31, 2024: none of the other members of the Supervisory Board held shares).

Note 11        Related party transactions

There were no major related party transactions entered into during the six months period ended June 30, 2025.

Note 12        Events after balance sheet date

On July 21, 2025, Financial & Corporate Compliance announced that it has signed a binding agreement to sell its Finance, Risk and Regulatory Reporting unit to Regnology Group GmbH (Regnology) for an enterprise value of approximately €450 million, subject to closing conditions and contractual adjustments. In 2024, Finance, Risk and Regulatory Reporting generated revenues of €123 million (approximately 10% of Financial & Corporate Compliance division 2024 revenues) with margins reflecting significant investment in its platform to support Basel and other new regulatory reporting requirements. The transaction, which is subject to regulatory approval and employee consultations, is expected to be completed in the fall 2025. Wolters Kluwer expects to record a (non-benchmark) capital gain upon completion. The use of net after-tax proceeds from the divestment will be determined after closing. The entities to be divested will continue to be consolidated with Financial & Corporate Compliance until completion.
