Computed values are grepcent-computed from the verified facts above and may differ from ratios the company itself reports. Free cash flow = operating cash flow − capital expenditures. Net margin = net income ÷ revenue. Revenue YoY = FY2026 revenue ÷ FY2025 revenue − 1 (consecutive fiscal years only). ROE = net income ÷ period-end stockholders' equity.

OVERVIEW

FRHC is organized under the laws of the State of Nevada and acts as a holding company for all of our operating subsidiaries. Our subsidiaries engage in a broad range of activities including securities brokerage, securities dealing for customers and for our own account, underwriting, market making activities, investment research, investment counseling, retail and commercial banking, insurance products, payment services, and information processing services.

Our company was founded to provide access to the international capital markets for retail brokerage customers and has rapidly grown providing a world-class digital infrastructure that has led to innovative, integrated financial technologies that address customer needs in Kazakhstan, our home market, and dozens of other countries across Europe, Asia, and North America.

Our principal executive office is in New York, United States.

Summary of Results of Operations

The highlights of our consolidated results for fiscal 2026 are as follows:

•We had total revenues, net of $2,191.3 million for fiscal 2026, as compared to $2,004.2 million for fiscal 2025. The increase from fiscal 2025 and 2026 was primarily attributable to the following:

◦Our interest income for fiscal 2026 was $882.5 million, representing an increase of $18.0 million, or 2%, compared to fiscal 2025. The increase was primarily driven by increased usage of margin loans by customers and continued expansion of Freedom Bank KZ's customer loan portfolio. This was partially offset by lower interest income from trading securities due to a strategic shift in our investment portfolio in response to increased market volatility and rising interest rates, which adversely impacted reinvestment decisions.

◦Our net insurance revenue for fiscal 2026 was $402.4 million, representing a decrease of $168.8 million, or 29%, compared to fiscal 2025. This decrease was primarily driven by lower written insurance premiums, reflecting regulatory caps on agent commissions for bank and microfinance loan products, and by higher deferred profit liability issuance expense.

◦Our net gain on trading securities for fiscal 2026 was $158.8 million, an increase of $216.6 million, or 375%, compared to fiscal 2025, primarily from sales of Kazakhstani corporate debt securities, partially offset by an unrealized net loss of $5.1 million for fiscal 2026 reflecting a decline in the fair value of securities held at period-end.

Table of Contents

◦Our net gain on derivatives for fiscal 2026 was $66.8 million, an increase of $54.4 million, or 438%, compared to fiscal 2025, driven primarily by Freedom Bank KZ, which recorded a realized net gain of $40.9 million for fiscal 2026 largely due to positive revaluation of currency swaps.

◦Our fee and commission income for fiscal 2026 was $489.8 million, representing a decrease of $15.3 million, or 3%, compared to fiscal 2025. This decrease was primarily attributable to lower fee and commission income from banking services, which declined by $87.7 million, mainly driven by the active use of a cashback-based loyalty program.

◦Our sales of goods and services increased by $57.3 million, or 143%, to $97.4 million for fiscal 2026 from $40.1 million for fiscal 2025, primarily reflecting our expansion into the telecommunications sector following the acquisition of Freedom Cloud Holding and increased customer activity and order volume at Arbuz.

◦Our investment securities portfolio increased by 19% to $3,342.6 million as of March 31, 2026 from $2,814.7 million as of March 31, 2025, which reflects a strategic shift in response to increased market volatility and rising interest rates.

◦The loan portfolio of Freedom Bank KZ increased by 29% to $2,045.3 million as of March 31, 2026 from $1,587.6 million as at March 31, 2025 mainly due to the growth of mortgage and collateralized bank customer loans portfolio between the two periods.

Key Factors Affecting Our Results of Operations

Our operations have been, and may continue to be, affected by certain key factors as well as certain historical events. The key factors affecting our business and the results of operations include, in particular: market and economic conditions, expansion of our digital ecosystem, acquisitions and expansion into new business areas and markets, our transactions with related parties, our arrangements with market maker customers and governmental policies. Each of these factors is discussed in more detail below.

Market and Economic Conditions

Performance in the financial services industry is heavily influenced by the overall strength of economic conditions and financial market activity, which generally have a direct and material impact on our results of operations and financial condition. These conditions are a product of many factors, which are mostly unpredictable and beyond our control, and may affect the decisions made by financial market participants.

Changes in economic and political conditions, including economic output levels, interest and inflation rates, employment levels, prices of commodities including oil and gas, exogenous market events, consumer confidence levels, tariffs, fiscal and monetary policy can affect market conditions. A period of sustained downturns and/or volatility in the securities markets, and/or prolonged levels of increasing interest rates, could lead to a return to increased credit market dislocations, reductions in the value of real estate, and other negative market factors which could significantly impact our revenues and profitability.

    Financial markets may also be impacted by armed conflicts, political and civil unrest occurring in the Middle East, Eastern Europe, Russia and Ukraine, South America and Asia. Hostilities between Russia and Ukraine, war involving Iran and the corresponding political and economic instability in the Middle East, including blockage of crucial transportation

routes, have created global uncertainties around the spread of the conflict and have impacted global supply chains of energy supplies and food supplies throughout the world. These issues could have unforeseen and negative impacts upon the financial markets and our company and its operations.

Expansion of Our Digital Ecosystem

Over the past few years, we have significantly expanded our customer base across brokerage, banking, and insurance by building a unified digital ecosystem. At the core of this growth is the launch of our SuperApp, which brings together essential financial services, including banking, insurance and lifestyle services in a single application. The addition of attractive loyalty and referral programs, improvement and further diversification of our offerings within our SuperApp during fiscal 2026 has further supported customer adoption, increasing overall engagement within the ecosystem. Our mission is to provide our customers with the most convenient, seamless, and beneficial experience possible, engaging them across a broad range of digital products, each offered on terms designed to deliver maximum value and ease of use.

We expect the increase in our customer base in recent years will positively impact our future growth prospects. This includes opportunities for increased revenue generation through the ongoing development of our integrated digital fintech ecosystem and expanded cross-selling capabilities. Additionally, we anticipate benefits from network effects, where the value of our services increases as our customer base grows, enabling us to achieve economies of scale by reducing operating costs per customer and enhancing overall operational efficiency. A larger and more diverse customer base also gives us access to a broader pool of data and customer insights, which may allow us to better understand customer preferences, tailor our product offerings, and optimize marketing and sales strategies.

However, while the expansion of our customer base presents significant opportunities, it also exposes us to certain risks and uncertainties related to the effective management of our growth. These include potential increases in customer liabilities, intensified competition from both existing and new market participants, and a heightened regulatory burden. Moreover, managing a larger customer base along with developing new businesses, such as telecom and media businesses, and implementing new technologies may introduce operational difficulties and increase the demands on our information systems and management resources. The growing reliance on digital channels and the increasing volume of customer data heighten our exposure to cybersecurity threats. We remain focused on proactively identifying, mitigating, and responding to these risk
