a)Restructured loans and recovered assets that were transferred to assets held for sale, inventories, and other assets, for a value of COP 131,143 and COP 130,993.
NOTE 1. REPORTING ENTITY
Bancolombia S.A., hereinafter the Bank, is a credit establishment, listed on the Colombia Stock Exchange (BVC) since 1981. It held American Depositary Receipts (hereinafter, “ADRs”) listed on the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE) from 1995 until May 2025.
The Bank main location is in Medellín (Colombia), main address Carrera 48 # 26-85, Avenida Los Industriales, and was originally constituted under the name Banco Industrial Colombiano (BIC) according to public deed No. 388, dated January 24, 1945, from the First Notary's Office of Medellín, authorized by the Superintendence of Finance of Colombia (“SFC”). On April 3, 1998, by means of public deed No. 633, BIC merged with Bank of Colombia S.A., and the resulting organization was named Bancolombia S.A.
The operating license was definitively authorized by the SFC according to Resolution No. 3140 of September 24, 1993. The duration contemplated in the bylaws is until December 8, 2144, but it may be dissolved or renewed before the end of that period.
On October 29, 2024, the Bank announced to the market that its Board of Directors had authorized its Management to proceed with the necessary steps to modify the corporate structure of Grupo Bancolombia and its subsidiaries, through the creation of a parent company called Grupo Cibest S.A. (hereinafter,“Cibest”).
The authorized changes in the corporate structure include the following transactions (hereinafter, the “Corporate Transactions”), which once the required regulatory approvals were obtained in Colombia and in the various jurisdictions of the Group, were approved by the Shareholders’ Assemblies of the entities involved. This includes an extraordinary meeting of the Bank’s Shareholders’ Assembly held on April 23, 2025, attended by holders of common shares and holders of preferred dividend shares without voting rights. The approved Corporate Transactions were as follows:
(i)The partial spin-off of Bancolombia (Panamá) S.A. in favor of the beneficiary company BC Panamá S.A.S.
(ii)The merger by absorption by the Bank of Sociedad Beneficiaria BC Panamá S.A.S.
(iii)The partial spin-off of Banca de Inversión Bancolombia S.A. Corporación Financiera for the benefit of the Bank.
(iv)The partial spin-off of the Bank for the benefit of Cibest.
Corporate Transactions (ii), (iii), and (iv) were authorized by the SFC through Resolutions No. 0356 of 2025 dated February 28, 2025, and No. 0901 dated May 7, 2025.
The notice of merger by absorption and partial spin-off of the Bank was published on January 13, 2025. The changes in the corporate structure were formalized on May 12, 2025, by means of public deed No. 386 of the Notary Public Thirtieth of Medellín, and on May 16, 2025, when the transaction was completed, the Bank's shareholders (except Cibest) became shareholders of Cibest, which issued in its name the same number and the class of shares (common shares and shares with preferential dividends and without voting rights), maintaining the terms and conditions that the shareholders had in the Bank, and their percentage of ownership. In turn, the shares they held in the Bank (except those of Cibest) were canceled. The holders of ADR's of the Bank received equivalent ADRs of Cibest and their ADRs of the Bank were canceled, therefore, no dilution or accretion was generated for the Bank's shareholders, nor was there any transfer of value to third parties.
With the refinement of corporate operations, Cibest became the parent company or holding company of all financial companies and other companies that are part of the Group, including the Bank.
The value of the assets, liabilities, and net equity spun off from Bancolombia S.A. in favor of Grupo Cibest S.A. is as follows:

SEPARATE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS NOTES
BANCOLOMBIA S.A.
NOTE 2. MATERIAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES
A.Basis for preparation condensed interim financial statements
The condensed separate interim financial statements for the cumulative six months ended on June 30, 2025, have been prepared in accordance with International Accounting Standard 34: Interim Financial Reporting (IAS 34”), issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (hereinafter, IASB). The condensed interim financial statements as of June 30, 2025, and 2024 have not been audited.
The condensed separate financial statements, being of an interim nature, do not include all the information and disclosures required for full annual financial statements, and therefore, should be read together with the Bank's condensed separate financial statements as of the close of the fiscal year ended December 31, 2024 which complied with the Normas de Contabilidad e Información Financiera (“NCIF”) accepted in Colombia, in accordance with the Marco Técnico Normativo issued through the Decreto Único Reglamentario 2420 of 2015 and its amendments, by the Ministerio de Hacienda y Crédito Público and Ministerio de Comercio, Industria y turismo. These interim financial statements have not been audited.
This framework exempts the application of IFRS 9, only with respect to the loan portfolio and its impairment and the classification and valuation of investments, which are recognised, classified and measured in accordance with the provisions of the Superintendencia Financiera de Colombia (“SFC”) contained in of Circular Externa 100 of 1995, and IFRS 5 for the determination of impairment of foreclosed assets, which are impaired in accordance with the provisions of the SFC. The above provisions are considered Accounting and Financial Reporting Standards accepted in Colombia (NCIF).
Preparation of the condensed separate interim financial statements undergoing concern basis
Management has assessed the Bank’s ability to continue as a going concern and confirms that the Bank has adequate resources, liquidity and solvency to continue operating the business for the foreseeable future, which is at least, but is not limited to, 12 months from the end of the reporting period. Based on the Bank's liquidity position at the date of authorization of the condensed separate interim financial statements, Management maintains a reasonable
expectation that it has adequate liquidity and solvency to continue in operation for at least the next 12 months and that the going concern basis of accounting remains appropriate.
The condensed separate interim financial statements were prepared on a going concern basis and do not include any adjustments to the reported carrying amounts and classification of assets, liabilities and expenses that might otherwise be required if the going concern basis were not correct.
In the Management opinion, these condensed separate interim financial statements reflect all material adjustments considered necessary in the circumstances and based on the best information available as of June 30, 2025 and the date of their promulgation and issuance, for a fair representation of financial results for the interim periods presented.
The results of operations for the cumulative six months ending on June 30, 2025 and 2024 are not necessarily indicative of the results for the full year. The Bank believes that the disclosures are sufficient to make the information presented not misleading or biased. For this reason, the condensed separate interim financial statements include selected explanatory notes to explain events and transactions that are important to the financial statements users or represent significant materiality in understanding the changes in the Bank’s financial position and performance since the last annual audited financial statements.
Assets and liabilities are measured at cost or amortized cost, with some exceptions where certain financial assets and liabilities are measured at fair value. These financial assets and liabilities measured at fair value correspond to those classified in the category of fair value through profit or loss, and those equity investments measured at fair value through other comprehensive income (OCI) in equity. Additionally, all financial derivatives and recognized assets and liabilities designated as hedged items in a fair value hedge are adjusted for changes in fair value attributable to the hedged risks. Investments in associates, joint ventures, and subsidiaries are measured using the equity method.
The condensed interim financial statements are stated in Colombian pesos (“COP”) and figures are stated in millions, except the exchange rate, which are stated in units of Colombian pesos, while other currencies (dollars, euro, pounds, etc.) are stated in thousands.
Transactions Between Entities Under Common Control
The combination of entities under common control refers to transactions in which entities that are under the control of the Group—both before and after the combination—are merged, and such control is not temporary.
For transactions under common control, the Bank has chosen to apply the predecessor value method as its accounting policy for recognizing intercompany transactions. This means that the assets and liabilities transferred from the entity or business being spun off are recognized in the separate financial statements of the receiving company at their book value, as recorded prior to the transaction date.
The Bank retrospectively presents the net assets received as of the transfer date.
During the second quarter of 2025, the Bank ceased to be the parent of the economic group. Therefore, from that date onward, the financial statements no longer include all previously consolidated subsidiaries. For more information, see Note 1: Reporting Entity.
B. Use of estimates and judgments
The preparation condensed separate interim financial statements requires that the Bank's Management makes judgments, estimates and assumptions that affect the application of accounting policies and the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, income and expenses.
The estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Changes in accounting estimates are recognized in the period in which the estimate is revised if the revision affects only that period, or in the period of the revision and future periods if the revision affects both current and future periods.
For the period ended in June 30, 2025, there were no changes in the significant estimates and judgments made by Management in applying the Bank's accounting, as compared to those applied in the financial statements at the year ended on December 31, 2024.
C. Material accounting policies and recently issued accounting pronouncements.
The same accounting policies and methods of calculation applied in the financial statements at the end of the year ended on December 31, 2024, continue to be applied in these condensed separate interim financial statements, except for the adoption of new standards, improvements and interpretations effective from January 1, 2025, as shown below:
a) Recently accounting pronouncements issued by IASB pending to incorporate in NCIF framework accepted in Colombia.
Amendments to IFRS 9 Financial instruments and IFRS 7 Financial instruments: disclosures - Classification and measurement of financial instruments:
In May 2024, the Board issued amendments to the classification and measurement requirements in IFRS 9. These amendments respond to feedback from post-implementation review of the accounting standard and clarify the requirements in areas where stakeholders have raised concerns, or where new issues have emerged since IFRS 9 was issued.
These amendments include:
–Clarifying the classification of financial assets with environmental, social and corporate governance (ESG) and similar features: ESG-linked features in loans could affect whether the loans are measured at amortised cost or fair value. To resolve any potential diversity in practice, the amendments clarify how the contractual cash flows on such loans should be assessed.
–Settlement of liabilities through electronic payment systems: The amendments clarify the date on which a financial asset or financial liability is derecognised. The IASB also decided to develop an accounting policy option to allow a company to derecognise a
financial liability before it delivers cash on the settlement date if specified criteria are met.
With these amendments, the IASB has also introduced additional disclosure requirements to enhance transparency for investors regarding investments in equity instruments designated at fair value through other comprehensive income and financial instruments with contingent features, for example features tied to ESG-linked targets.
The amendments are effective for annual reporting periods beginning on or after January 1, 2024, and early application is permitted. These amendments have been reviewed by Management and have no impact on the Bank financial statements and disclosures.
New standard NIIF 18 Presentation and Disclosure in Financial Statements:
In April 2024, the Board issued IFRS 18 to replace IAS 1 Presentation of Financial Statements. IFRS 18 introduces three sets of new requirements to improve the way companies report their financial performance and give investors a better basis for analyzing and comparing companies:
Improved comparability in the statement of income: IFRS 18 introduces three defined categories for income and expenses (operating, investing and financing) to improve the structure of the statement of income, and requires all companies to provide new defined subtotals, including operating profit.
Enhanced transparency of management-defined performance measures: The new standard requires companies to disclose explanations of those company-specific measures that are related to the statement of income, referred to as management-defined performance measures.
More useful grouping of information in the financial statements: IFRS 18 sets out enhanced guidance on how to organize information and whether to provide it in the primary financial statements or in the notes. In addition, the new standard requires companies to provide more transparency about operating expenses, helping investors to find and understand the information they need.
IFRS 18 is effective for annual reporting periods beginning on or after January 1, 2027, and early application is permitted. Management is assessing the impact that these amendments will have on the Bank's condensed separate interim financial statements and disclosures.

4.2.Derivative financial instruments
The Bank derivative activities do not give rise to significant open positions in portfolios of derivatives. The Bank enters into derivative transactions to facilitate customer business, for hedging purposes and arbitrage activities, such as forwards, options, or swaps where the underlying assets are exchange rates, interest rates, and securities.
A swap agreement is a contract between two parties to exchange cash flows based on specified underlying notional amounts, assets, and/or indexes. Financial futures and forward settlement contracts are agreements to buy or sell a quantity of a financial instrument (including another derivative financial instrument), index, currency or commodity at a predetermined rate or price during a period or at a date in the future. Futures and option contracts are standardized agreements for future delivery, traded on exchanges that typically act as a platform.

4.3 Hedge of a net investment in a foreign operation
The Bank uses hedge accounting for net investments in foreign operations with non-derivative instruments and has designated USD 528,000 in debt securities issued as hedging instruments. This transaction is intended to protect the Bank against foreign exchange risk (USD/COP) related to the net investments in Bancolombia Panamá S.A., Bancolombia Puerto Rico Internacional Inc., and the Panama Branch, whose financial information are
denominated in U.S dollars. The book value and the hedged portion of the investment are listed below:

(1) In 2025, the partial spin-off of Bancolombia's assets and liabilities to Grupo Cibest S.A. was completed. In this transaction, Banistmo S.A. was spun off to Grupo Cibest S.A. As a result, the hedge accounting for the net investment abroad in Banistmo was completely discontinued on April 30, 2025.
(2) As of May 1, 2025, a new hedging relationship was created, designating subordinated bonds maturing in 2027 and 2034 as hedging instruments for net investments in Bancolombia Panama, Bancolombia Puerto Rico, and the Panama Branch, with the objective of mitigating the impact of exchange rate differences on the Bank's financial statements.
The following is a detail of the hedging instruments of the net investment in the net foreign investment:
As of June 30, 2025

| Total Debt securities | 1,261,707 | 884,544 |
Measuring effectiveness and ineffectiveness
A hedge is considered effective if, at the beginning of the period and in subsequent periods, the changes in fair value or cash flows attributable to the hedged risk during the period for which the hedge has been designated are offset.
The Bank has documented the evidence of effectiveness of the hedge of the net foreign investment based on the portion of the net investment hedged at the beginning of the hedging relationship amounting to USD 528,000. The hedge is considered perfectly effective since the critical terms and risks of the obligations that serve as hedging instruments are
identical to those of the primary hedged position. The effectiveness of the hedge is measured on a before taxes.
Gains or losses from the currency translation of the financial statements of Bancolombia Panama and Bancolombia Puerto Rico for the year 2025 and Banistmo for the year 2024 are recognized in Other Comprehensive Income (OCI). Consequently, the exchange difference related to the translation of debt securities issued and borrowings from correspondent banks is recognized directly in OCI. The foreign currency translation adjustment corresponding to hedging instruments as of June 30, 2025 was COP 65,304 and as of June 30, 2024 was COP (452,000). See Condensed separate interim statement of comprehensive income - Gain (loss) on hedge of net investment in a foreign operation.
Panama Branch is a net investment of the Bank, and the restatement directly impacts the profit or loss for the period. In the hedging relationship between the bonds and the net assets of the Panama Branch, no adjustment is recognized in OCI, since both the restatement of the investment and the effect of the hedging instrument are reflected in the income statement, thus constituting a natural hedge.

9.6. Dividends
9.6.1 Dividend Payment
Dividends to be distributed by the Bank will be subject to the application of section 48 and 49 of the Colombian Tax Code, and consequently, they will be subject to a withholding tax
established by the norm. This is in accordance with the tax characteristics of each shareholder.
9.6.2 Dividends received from Colombian Subsidiary Companies
Considering the historical tax status of the dividends received by the Bank from its affiliates and national subsidiaries, it is expected that in the future dividends will be received on the basis of non-income tax. They will not be subject to withholding tax, taking into account that the Bank, its affiliates and national subsidiaries belong to the same business group.
9.7. Tax contingent liabilities and assets
In the determination of the effective current and deferred taxes subject to review by the tax authority, the relevant regulations have been applied in accordance with the interpretations made by the Cibest Group.
In Colombia, due to the complexity of the tax system, ongoing amendments to the tax regulations, accounting changes with implications on tax bases and in general the legal instability of the country, the tax administration's judgment may differ from that applied by Bancolombia at any time. Consequently, a dispute or inspection by the tax authority on a tax treatment may affect accounting of assets or liabilities for deferred or current taxes, in accordance with the requirements of IAS 12. However.
Based on the criteria established in the interpretation of IFRIC 23, Bancolombia did not recognize uncertain tax positions in its financial statements.
9.8. Tax contingent liabilities and assets
The Bank recognizes transactions between related parties by applying the arm's length principle. These transactions are documented and reported to the Colombian tax administration. No transfer pricing adjustments are expected for the current fiscal year.

NOTE 21. FAIR VALUE OF ASSETS AND LIABILITIES
The characteristics of the asset or liability are considered in determining fair value in the same manner as market participants would consider in pricing the asset or the liability at the measurement date.
Valuation process for fair value measurements
The valuation to fair value prices is performed using prices, methodologies and inputs provided by the official pricing services provider (Precia) to the Bank.
All methodologies and procedures developed by the pricing services provider are supervised by the SFC, which has its authorization.
The following table shows the carrying value and fair value of assets and liabilities as of June 30, 2025, and December 31, 2024:

Fair value measurement
Assets and liabilities
a.Debt instruments
The Bank assigns prices to these debt investments, using the prices provided by the official pricing service provider (Precia) and assigns the appropriate level according to the procedure
described at the beginning of this note. For securities not traded or over the counter such as certain bonds issued by other financial institutions, the Bank generally determines fair value utilizing internal valuation and standard techniques. These techniques include determination of expected future cash flows which are discounted using curves of the applicable currencies and the Colombian consumer price index (interest rate in this case), modified by the credit risk and liquidity risk. The interest rate is generally computed using observable market data and reference yield curves derived from quoted interest in appropriate time intervals, which match the timings of the cash flows and maturities of the instruments.
b.Equity securities
The Bank performs the market price valuation of its investments in variable income using the prices provided by the official pricing services provider (Precia) and classifies those investments according to the procedure described at the beginning of this note. Likewise, in order to determine the fair value of unquoted equity securities, the Bank affects the value of the investment in the corresponding percentage of participation, to the subsequent variations of the respective issuer's equity. Holdings in mutual funds, trusts and collective portfolios are valued taking into account the value of the holding as calculated by the management company.
c.Derivative financial instruments
The Bank holds positions in standardized derivatives, such as futures over local stocks, and over the representative exchange rate. These instruments are evaluated according to the information provided by Precia, which perfectly matches the information provided by the Central Counterparty Clearing House – CCP.
Additionally, the Bank holds positions in Over the Counter (OTC) derivatives, which in the absence of prices, are valued using the inputs and methodologies provided by the pricing services provider, which have the no objection of the Financial Superintendence of Colombia.
The key inputs depend upon the type of derivative and the nature of the underlying instrument and include interest rate yield curves, foreign exchange rates, the spot price of the underlying volatility, credit curves and correlation of such inputs.
d.Credit valuation adjustment
The Bank measures the effects of the credit risk of its counterparties and its own creditworthiness in determining fair value of the swap, option and forward derivatives.
Counterparty credit-risk adjustments are applied to derivatives when the Bank's position is a derivative asset and the Bank’s credit risk is incorporated when the position is a derivative liability. The Bank attempts to mitigate credit risk to third parties which are international banks by entering into master netting agreements. The agreements allow to offset or bring net amounts that are liabilities, derivatives from transactions carried out by the different agreements. Master netting agreements take different forms and may allow payments to be made under a variety of other master agreements or other negotiation agreements between the same parties, some may have a monthly basis and others only apply at the time the agreements are terminated.
When assessing the impact of credit exposure, only the net counterparty exposure is considered at risk, due to the offsetting of certain same-counterparty positions and the application of cash and other collateral.
The Bank generally calculates the asset's credit risk adjustment for derivatives transacted with international financial institutions by incorporating indicative credit related pricing that is generally observable in the market (Credit Default Swaps, “CDS”). The credit-risk adjustment for derivatives transacted with non-public counterparties is calculated by incorporating unobservable credit data derived from internal credit qualifications to the financial institutions and corporate companies located in Colombia. The Bank also considers its own creditworthiness when determining the fair value of an instrument, including OTC derivative instruments if the Bank believes market participants would take that into account when transacting the respective instrument.
The approach to measuring the impact of the Bank's credit risk on an instrument transacted with international financial institutions is done using the asset swap curve calculated for subordinated bonds issued by the Bank in foreign currency.
For derivatives transacted with local financial institutions, the Bank calculates the credit risk adjustment by incorporating credit risk data provided by rating agencies and released in the Colombian financial market.
e.Impaired loans measured at fair value
The Bank measured certain impaired loans based on the fair value of the associated collateral less costs to sell. The fair values were determined as follows using external and internal valuation techniques or third party experts, depending on the type of underlying asset.
For vehicles under leasing arrangements, the Bank uses an internal valuation model based on price curves for each type of vehicle. Such curves show the expected price of the vehicle at different points in time based on the initial price and projection of economic variables such as inflation, devaluation and customs. The prices modelled in the curves are compared every six months with market information for the same or similar vehicles and in the case of significant deviation; the curve is adjusted to reflect the market conditions.
Other vehicles are measured using matrix pricing from a third party. This matrix is used by most of the market participants and is updated monthly. The matrix is developed from values provided by several price providers for identical or similar vehicles and considers brand, characteristics of the vehicles, and manufacturing date among other variables to determine the prices.
For real estate assets, a third-party qualified appraiser is used. The methodologies vary depending on the date of the last appraisal available for the property (the appraisal is estimated based on either of three approaches: cost, sales comparison and income approach, and is required every three years). When the property has been valued in the last 12 months and the market conditions have not shown significant changes, the most recent valuation is considered the fair value of the property.
For all other cases (for example, appraisals older than 12 months) the value of the property is updated by adjusting the value in the last appraisal for weighted factors such as location, type
and characteristics of the property, size, structural conditions and the expected sales prices, among others. The factors are determined based on current market information gathered from several external real estate specialists.
f.Assets held for sale measured at fair value less cost of sale
The Bank measures certain impaired foreclosed assets and premises and equipment held for sale based on fair value less costs to sell. The fair values were determined using external and internal valuation techniques, depending on the type of underlying asset. Those assets are comprised mainly of real estate properties for which the appraisal is conducted by experts considering factors such as the location, type and characteristics of the property, size, physical conditions and expected selling costs, among others. Likewise, in some cases the fair value is estimated considering comparable prices or promises of sale and offering prices from auctions process.
g.Mortgage backed securities (TIPS) and Asset-Backed securities
The Bank invests in asset-backed securities for which underlying assets are mortgages and earnings under contracts issued by financial institutions and corporations, respectively. The Bank does not have a significant exposure to sub-prime securities. The asset-backed securities are denominated in local market TIPS and are classified as fair value through profit or loss. These asset-backed securities have different maturities and are generally classified by credit ratings.
TIPS are part of the Bank portfolio and its fair value is measured with published price by the official pricing services provider. These securities are leveled by margin and are assigned level 2 or 3 based on the Precia information.
Residual TIPS have their fair value measured using the discounted flow method, taking into account the amortization tables of the Titularizadora Colombiana, the betas in COP and UVR of Precia (used to construct the curves) and the margins; when they are residual TIPS of subordinated issues, a liquidity premium is applied. These securities are assigned level 3.
h.Investment property
The Bank's investment property is valued by external experts, who use valuation techniques based on comparable prices, direct capitalization, discounted cash flows and replacement costs.
Fair value hierarchy
IFRS 13 establishes a fair value hierarchy of valuation techniques based on whether the inputs to those valuation techniques are observable or unobservable, that reflects the significance of inputs adopted in the measurement process. In accordance with IFRS the financial instruments are classified as follows:
Level 1: Observable inputs that reflect quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities. An active market is a market in which transactions for the asset or liability being measured take place with sufficient frequency and volume to provide pricing information on an ongoing basis.
Level 2: Inputs other than quoted prices included in Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability either directly or indirectly. Level 2 generally includes: (i) quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets; (ii) quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active, that is, markets in which there are few transactions for the asset or liability.
Level 3: Unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity and that are significant to the fair value of the assets or liabilities. Level 3 assets and liabilities include financial instruments whose value is determined using pricing models, discounted cash flow methodologies, or similar techniques, as well as instruments for which the determination of fair value requires significant management judgment or estimation.
This category generally includes certain retained residual interests in securitization, asset-backed securities (ABS) and highly structured or long-term derivative contracts where independent pricing information was not able to be obtained for a significant portion of the underlying assets.

IFRS requires entities to disclose the fair value of financial instruments, both assets and liabilities recognized and not recognized in the statement of financial position, for which it is practicable to estimate fair value. Certain categories of assets and liabilities, however, are not eligible for fair value accounting.
The financial instruments below are not measured at fair value on a recurring and nonrecurring basis:
Short-term financial instruments
Short-term financial instruments are valued at their carrying amounts included in the consolidated statement of financial position, which are reasonable estimates of fair value due to the relatively short period to maturity of the instruments. This approach was used for cash and cash equivalents, accrued interest receivable, customers’acceptances, accounts receivable, accounts payable, accrued interest payable and bank acceptances outstanding.
Deposits from customers
The fair value of time deposits was estimated based on the discounted value of cash flows using the appropriate discount rate for the applicable maturity. Fair value of deposits with no contractual maturities represents the amount payable on demand as of the statement of financial position date.
Interbank deposits and repurchase agreements and other similar secured borrowings
Short-term interbank borrowings and repurchase agreements have been valued at their carrying amounts because of their relatively short-term nature. Long-term and domestic development bank borrowings have also been valued at their carrying amount because they bear interest at variable rates.
Borrowings from other financial institutions
The fair value of borrowings from other financial institutions were determined using discounted cash flow models. The cash flows projection of capital and interest was made according to the contractual terms, considering capital amortization and interest bearing. Subsequently, the
cash flows were discounted using reference curves formed by the weighted average of the Bank’s deposit rates.
Debt instruments in issue
The fair value of debt instruments in issue, comprised of bonds issued by Bancolombia S.A. and its subsidiaries, was estimated substantially based on quoted market prices. The fair value of certain bonds which do not have a public trading market, were determined based on the discounted value of cash flows using the rates currently offered for bonds of similar remaining maturities and the Bank’s creditworthiness.
Loans and advances to customers
Estimating the fair value of loans and advances to customers is considered an area of considerable uncertainty as there is no observable market. The loan portfolio is stratified into tranches and loans segments such as commercial, consumer, small business loans, mortgage and leasing. The fair value of loans and advances to customers and financial institutions is determined using a discounted cash flow methodology, considering each credit’s principal and interest projected cash flows to the prepayment date. The projected cash flows are discounted using reference curves according to the type of loan and its maturity date.
Items measured at fair value on a non-recurring basis
The Bank measures assets held for sale based on fair value less costs to sell. This category includes certain foreclosed assets and investments in associates held for sale. The fair values were determined using external and internal valuation techniques or third party experts, depending on the type of underlying asset. The following breakdown sets forth the fair value hierarchy of those assets classified by type:

Level 3 fair value – transfers
The following were the significant level 3 transfers as of June 30, 2025:
Transfers between Level 1 and Level 2 to Level 3:
As of June 30, 2025, there were no transfers to level 3 debt securities. For December 31, 2024, there were transfers of COP 523,669.
Transfers of COP 126,109 and COP 128,866 were made as of June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, respectively of the exchange rate and interest rate derivative contracts to level 3. They are mainly linked to the transfer of own credit risk to the credit risk of the counterparty
Transfers between Level 3 and Level 1 and 2:
As of June 30, 2025 transfers for COP (2,692,902) from level 3 to level 2 corresponding to Solidarity Securities issued by the Colombian Government (TDS) bonds. In December 2024,
these securities were not price marked and their margin was not registered by the Price Provider (Precia), therefore their level was 3. However, as of June 30, 2025 they registered historical margin provided by the Price Provider (Precia), therefore the current level is 2. As of December 31, 2024, transfers from level 3 to level 2 were for COP (5,567).
Transfer of COP (86,428) and COP (8,987) as of June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, respectively of the exchange rate and interest rate derivative contracts from Level 3 to Level 2, mainly related to a transfer of the counterparty's credit risk to the Company's own credit risk.
Transfers between Level 2 and Level 1 of the Fair Value hierarchy
As of June 30, 2025, the Bank transferred securities from level 1 to level 2 for COP 35,600 as these securities increased their liquidity and were traded more frequently in an active market, therefore, its level was 1; however, for June 2025 the margin is historical and provided by the price provider (Precia), therefore, the current level is 2. As of December 31, 2024 the value of these transfers was COP 202,779.
As of June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, there were no transfers from level 2 to level 1.
All transfers are assumed to have occurred at the end of the reporting period.
Quantitative Information about Level 3 Fair Value measurements
The fair value of financial instruments is, in certain circumstances, measured using valuation techniques that incorporate assumptions that are not evidenced by prices from observable market transactions in the same instrument and are not based on observable market data.
Changing one or more of the inputs to the valuation models to reasonably possible alternative assumptions would change the fair values and therefore a valuation adjustment would be recognized through income statement. Favorable and unfavorable changes are determined based on changes in the value of the instrument because of varying the levels of the unobservable input.
The following table sets forth information about significant unobservable inputs related to the Bank’s material categories of level 3 financial assets and liabilities and the sensitivity of these fair values to reasonably possible alternative assumptions.

(1)Margin: The margin reflects the risks not incorporated in the reference rate, such as the credit risk, and is that value which, compounded with the reference rate, results in the discount rate which the price of the security in the operation is obtained.
(2)Amortization table (Applies to TIPS): It is based on the cash flows generated monthly by the Colombian Securitization Company, which incorporate, among other assumptions, the default and prepayment indicators, which correspond to inputs that are not observable in the market but are developed under statistical techniques and based on the history of mortgage loans in Colombia.
(3)Recovery rate and counterparties COP (USD): These refer to the recovery rates and the probabilities of default of the counterparties, which are used in the estimation of the CVA/DVA adjustment in the measurement of the fair value of the OTC derivative instruments.
The following table presents the valuation techniques used in measuring the fair value of the Bank's investment properties, the most significant unobservable inputs, and the respective sensitivity:

Sales Comparison Approach - SCA
The process by which an indication of value is obtained for the properties under analysis by comparing them with similar properties that can be considered comparable to those under analysis, that have been recently sold (ideally) or that are on offer, identifying the appropriate units of comparison and making the necessary adjustments to make them comparable to those under appraisal, based on market-derived comparables. | Comparable Prices | The weighted average rates used in the income capitalization methodology for the first quarter of 2025 are:
• Direct capitalization: initial rate 8.21%. • Discounted cash flow: discount rate: 12.40% terminal rate: 8.32%.
The same weighted rates for the second quarter of 2025 are:
• Direct capitalization: initial rate 8.14%. • Discounted cash flow: discount rate: 12.30% terminal rate: 8.26%.
The ratio between monthly gross rent and the value of the properties managed directly by the FIC (rental rate) considering the differences in locations and individual factors between properties and on a weighted basis was 0.87% at the end of the first quarter of 2025 and 0.87% at the end of the second quarter of 2025.
| An increase (Light, normal, considerable, significant) in the capitalization rate used would generate a decrease (significant, considerable, normal, light) in the fair value of the asset, and vice versa.
An increase (Light, normal, considerable, significant) in the leases used in the valuation would generate a (significant, light, considerable) increase in the fair value of the asset, and vice versa
|
Income Approach
In this methodology the appraiser analyzes the capacity of a property to generate future benefits, which are brought to present value as an indication of value. | Direct Capitalization
Discounted Cash Flows |
Cost approach
A set of procedures by which an indication of the Market Value of the Full Property Right is obtained by estimating the cost of constructing, reproducing or replacing the property being appraised, including a reasonable profit, deducting depreciation from the total cost and adding the value of the land separately. | Replacement cost |
There has been no change to the valuation technique during the year 2025 for each asset.
NOTE 22. EVENTS AFTER THE REPORTING PERIOD
The financial statements of Bancolombia S.A. for the year ended June 30, 2025, were approved by Chief Executive Strategy and Finance for publication on
August 6, 2025.
On July 22, 2025, Bancolombia S.A. (“Bancolombia”) announced its intention to voluntarily delist its 4.875% Subordinated Bonds due 2027 (the “2027 Bonds”) and 8.625% Subordinated Bonds due 2034 (the “2034 Bonds”, and together with the 2027 Bonds, the “Bonds”) from the New York Stock Exchange (the “NYSE”). Management is currently carrying out the necessary procedures to change the listing jurisdiction of the aforementioned Bonds to the Singapore Exchange (“SGX”).
RISK MANAGEMENT
The first half of 2025 was marked by an acceleration in economic growth compared to last year. However, uncertainty remains high at the local level due to the slower pace of inflation convergence, which has reduced the room for monetary policy rate cuts, and in light of the Government’s numerous fiscal challenges following the activation of the escape clause of the Fiscal Rule. At the international level, U.S. trade policy and geopolitical conflicts in the Middle East have heightened the risk of an inflationary surge.
Credit risk – credit portfolio and financial leasing operations
Credit risk is the probability that the entity will incur losses due to i) non-compliance with the financial obligations taken by the counterparty, issuer or debtor, ii) deterioration due to the decrease in their risk rating, iii) the reduction of profits and remunerations and iv) the benefits delivered in restructuring and recovery costs.
The information included below presents the maximum exposure to credit risk as of June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024

(2)For derivative transactions, counterparty risk is revealed as long as the valuation is positive. Therefore, the value described here differs from the book value.
The maximum exposure to credit risk of the financial leasing portfolio and operations corresponds to it carrying amount at the end of the period without considering any guarantee received or other credit improvements.
The maximum exposure to credit risk of financial guarantees corresponds to the total balance granted at the end of the period, which is why it does not reflect the expected results.
The maximum exposure to credit risk of derivatives corresponds to the market value (mark to market) at the end of the period without considering any guarantee received or other credit improvements.
The maximum exposure to credit risk of debt securities and equity investments corresponds to their book amount at the end of the period without considering any guarantee received or other credit improvements.
a.Credit Risk Management – loan portfolio and Leasing operations
Risk management in the cycles of the different types of credit operations, it develops by complying with the policies, procedures and methodologies stipulated in the Credit Risk Management Framework of the System of Integral Risk Management System (SIAR), which also contains the general criteria for evaluating, qualifying, assuming, controlling and covering the mentioned risk. In addition, the administration has developed process and method manuals that specify the policies and procedures for the different products and segments served by the entity, and realize the strategy approved by the Board of Directors for the monitoring and control of credit risk.
In accordance with the above the policies for credit risk management include those stipulated for the credit exposure limit, credit origination, guarantees and securities, provisions, and portfolio monitoring and collections. Below is a brief description of the mentioned policies:
•Credit exposure limit Policy: contains the guidelines regarding the establishment of credit exposure limits and levels. Is set in compliance with legal requirements and in accordance with the entity's internal guidelines.
•Credit origination Policy: with this policy, the broad and sufficient knowledge of the characteristics of potential clients, the proper selection of these and the optimal granting levels consistent with their capacities is sought.
•Guarantees Policy: this policy specifies the guarantees provided by the clients to the entity, the characteristics, and criteria to accept and evaluate them to mitigate the risk associated with the non-compliance of the agreed upon obligations.
•Provisions Policy: this policy underlines the compliance of legal guidelines, what is stipulated by the Bank and the analysis of clients regarding the actions which must be taken, to cover the risk of losses due to credit exposure.
•Monitoring Polic(1): It contains all the following activities that the bank use to monitoring the customer with their information, the purpose of this is to review the correct evolution of credit risk. These activities require a specific classification process of credits operations and are consistent with the policies implemented for new credits.
(1) Follow-up: Knowledge of the client's situation during the life of the credit.
•Portfolio recovery policy(2): through the definition of this policy, the Bank's objective is to establish those mechanisms that allow it to anticipate possible delays and carry out the recovery of the portfolio, that is, to minimize the impacts that result from late or non-compliance with payments, Additionally, this policy define all the activities and aspects that the bank has been considered as customer reconciliation management to make it.
(2) Recovery: Collection management during the different stages of the same.
The Bank's credit risk management is carried out in all processes of the credit cycle, these processes are framed as follows:
•Credit origination: customer knowledge, payment capacity analysis, sectoral analysis, payment behavior and credit structuring.
•Behavior: knowledge of the client's situation during the credit life.
•Recovery: collection during the different stages.
Scoring and rating models based on statistical information or expert criteria are used to support credit origination processes. This allows a differentiation of the risk level of potential clients to support decision making.
The Vice Presidency of Risks defines and documents the characteristics of the models that are used in the process of credit origination. Also, defines parameters, variables and the cut-off points that applied in each model. At least every six months, the Vice Presidency of Risks must do the backtesting(3) of the scoring and rating models, used in the credit origination process to validate their effectiveness. Additionally, monthly the entire credit portfolio must be rated with reference models and days past due, in order to assess the credit risk of each debtor and the allocation of bank provisions.
(3) Statistical procedure used to validate the quality and accuracy of a model, by comparing actual results and risk measures generated by the models.
In addition to the evaluation and qualification of the portfolio, monthly provisions serve as a measure of the current condition of the portfolio, the parameters for their calculation are found in chapter 2 of the Basic Accounting and Financial Circular 100 of 1995 of the Financial Superintendence of Colombia, where define two matrices (A and B) for assigning the probability of default of the commercial and retail portfolio, a calculation that is made taking into account the rating, and in the commercial portfolio, the value of the client's assets, and in that of consumption, the historical behavior of the client's payments. For the remaining modalities, the portfolio is classified by risk level and then the provision percentage is calculated according to the days past due.
In order to guarantee compliance with the regulations established with respect to individual credit and concentration limits, the Bank carries out continuous monitoring of the concentration of risk groups, as well as daily control of the exposures of the different risk groups, evaluating the legal limits of indebtedness.
Additionally, there are internal concentration limits for the following classifications:
•Concentration analysis by country: the country risk for a client will be the one where the economic activity of the client take place to generate the resources to pay the credit obligation.
•Sector concentration analysis: carried out through the economic sector defined by the international ISIC code(4).
(4) ISIC: International Standard Industrial Classification of all economic activities.
•Concentration analysis by modality: refers to the portfolio modality of each agreement (commercial, retail, microcredit and mortgage credit).
The Bank has models based on the optimization of risk and profitability, to determine the different levels of concentration of portfolios, also based on international references
determined with external risk rating agencies that allow the analysis of concentration levels in different geographies.

At the end of June 30, 2025, no alerts were presented in any investment subject to country risk, nor were adjustments made for deterioration of investments that could affect or deteriorate the financial strength of the Bank, compared to the end of 2024. The decrease in the investment portfolio subject to country risk assessment is primarily due to the reallocation of investment companies within the Cibest Group and the sale of the investment in BANCO LATINOAMERICANO DE COMERCIO EXTERIOR. Additionally, the decrease in the value of investments is due to revaluation factors.
b. Credit Quality Analysis - loans and Financial Leases portfolio
Credit risk rating system
Its main goal is to determine the client’s credit risk profile, which is given by the result of a rating.
The institutional or legal entities portfolio rating is performed through a rating model, based on the analysis of quantitative and qualitative variables, which could affect the payment of the financial commitments acquired by a client. This model is performed in the early stage of the credit process, it is updated every six months and includes credit risk variables, which could be summarized in the customer's financial performance measured from financial figures and payment capacity, payment behavior with the Bank and with other entities, and qualitative variables that are not explicit in the financial statements.
For the retail portfolio there is a rating model based on a score, which contains the last 12 months behavior variables, such as overdue, product counts, changes in the initial credit conditions, among others, gathering all this information the rating model gives a score, which will be categorized by a credit risk level, to identify the level of risk associated with the client.
For the Bank, the following credit risk levels have been determined to group customers according to their payment behavior:
| | | | | |
| Category | description |
| A - Normal Risk | Loans and financial lease operations thatoperations have an excellentexcellent payment behavior. The debtor's financial statements and cash flows forecast, as well as other available financial information, it, allows inferring an adequate payment capacity. |
| B - Acceptable Risk | Loans and financial lease transactions, even though they have an acceptable payment behavior, present some weakness that could potentially temporarily or permanently affect the debtor's ability to pay. |
| C - Appreciable Risk | Loans and financial lease operations that present deficiencies in the debtor's payment capacity or in its cash flow forecast, which could affect the normal payment of the obligation. |
| D - Significant Risk | Loans and financial lease transactions that have the same deficiencies as category "C", for a longer period, therefore its payment probability is low. |
| E – Uncollectible | Loans and financial lease obligations in this category are considered uncollectible. |
The Bank’s loan and financial lease portfolio distribution by the end of the period, according to the credit risk levels mentioned above, is shown below:
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | |
| Period | June 30, 2025 | December 31, 2024 |
| Category | Balance | Participation % | balance | Participation % |

| Total | 198,722,204 | | 100 | % | 191,927,705 | | 101 | % |
Additional provisions
Additional individual provisions
An individual review is carried out on significant clients with impairment, to determine whether they need an additional individual provision, based on their risk. At the end of June 2025, this provision amounts to COP 312,409.
Relevant topics regulatory provisions
For the housing modality, an adjustment is made to the provision parameters, leaving them at the regulatory minimums for ratings C and D. This adjustment was made between June and July 2024 and continues to apply today. This adjustment allows for continued adequate coverage levels of the portfolio, which continue to be higher than those of the financial system, with parameters equal to or higher than the regulatory minimums required by the Financial Superintendency of Colombia.
Portfolio monitoring
•Retail and SME Banking:
As of the end of June 2025, the total loan portfolio for Retail and SME Banking increased by 3.3% compared to December 2024. Past-due loans decreased by 6%, improving the non-performing loan (NPL) ratio from 6.9% to 6.3%. This positive trend is attributed to the recovery of the macroeconomic environment, reflected in falling inflation, lower market interest rates, and reduced unemployment. Additionally, proactive monitoring and early collection and monitoring strategies have contributed to lower portfolio default rates. Early warning and predictive analytics strategies will continue to be applied to the loan portfolio, aiming to identify early signs of deterioration and mitigate the materialization of credit risk.
•Corporate banking:
As of the end of June 2025, the Corporate Business continued to show a positive performance in its loan portfolio, with an outstanding balance increase of 3.77% compared to December 2024. This growth is partly attributed to a favorable disbursement dynamic, with disbursement levels consistently exceeding COP 114 trillion.
Regarding portfolio quality, a significant improvement was observed. The 30-day past-due loan ratio stood at 2.32% at the end of June 2025, reflecting a reduction of 22 basis points
compared to December 2024. This improvement highlights effective credit risk management, supported by stricter origination policies and proactive monitoring of clients showing early warning signs of deterioration.
Lastly, loan loss coverage through provisions remained strong, reaching 140.74% as of the second quarter of 2025. This level of coverage indicates the institution’s solid capacity to absorb potential credit losses, reinforcing both its solvency and overall financial stability.
Monitoring Sectoral Alerts, Macroeconomic Changes, and the Political Environment
During the second quarter of 2025, monitoring and collection strategies remained active across all business segments, aiming to identify emerging risks and proactively implement timely solutions to mitigate potential impacts on the loan portfolio. As part of this process, Bancolombia has intensified its comprehensive review of the economic sectors to which it is exposed, considering macroeconomic, sectoral, financial, and transactional variables in a context of uncertainty driven by both local and international issues.
Currently, potential impacts of the new labor reform are being assessed. The reform could affect labor intensive sectors such as hotels, restaurants, and temporary service companies and services BPO , where an increase in operating costs and adjustments in hiring practices are expected. These changes may lead to a deterioration in some client’s payment capacity, reduced profit margins, or even increased unemployment and informality among individuals. Bancolombia will continue to actively evaluate these risks and design strategies for clients who may be affected.
At the same time, a positive trend in client payment behavior persists, with customers responding favorably to the decline in inflation and interest rates. Nevertheless, alerts related to government budget management, monetary policy, trade policy, and key variables such as the exchange rate continue to be closely monitored. Additionally, sector-specific alerts remain in place for industries such as construction, healthcare, and public sector contractors.
b.Credit Risk Management – investment financial instruments
The portfolio is exposed to credit risks given the probability of incurring losses originated by the default in the payment of a coupon, principal and/or yields/dividends of a financial instrument by its issuer or counterparty. The probability of this type of events materializing may increase if there are scenarios of concentration in few issuers (counterparties) and whose credit performance is reflected by higher risk ratings; likewise, increases in credit risk may occur in scenarios in which the portfolio presents low levels of diversification at the level of type and sector of the counterparties with which financial asset transactions are carried out.
The Bank maintains control and continuous monitoring of the assigned credit risk limits, as well as the consumption thereof. Additionally, the Bank follows up and manages alerts on counterparties and issuers of securities, based on public market information and news related to their performance; this allows mitigating the risks of default or reduction of value for the managed positions.
For credit risk management, each of the positions that make up the portfolio of the own position are adjusted to the policies and limits that have been defined and that seek to minimize the exposure to the same:
•Term Limits.
•Credit Limits.
•Counterparty Limits.
•Master Agreement.
•Margin Agreements.
•Counterparty Alerts.
c. Credit Quality Analysis - Other Financial Instruments
In order to evaluate the credit quality of a counterparty or issuer (to determine a risk level or profile), the Bank relies on two rating systems: an external one and an internal one, both of which allow to identify a degree of risk differentiated by segment and country and to apply the policies that have been established for issuers or counterparties with different levels of risk, in order to limit the impact on liquidity and/or the income statement of the Bank.
External credit rating system: is divided by the type of rating applied to each instrument or issuer; in this way the geographic location, the term and the type of instrument allow the assignment of a rating according to the methodology that each examining agency uses.
Internal credit rating system: the “ratings or risk profiles” scale is created with a range of levels that go from low risk to high risk (this can be reported in numerical or alphanumerical scales), where the rating model is sustained by the implementation and analysis of qualitative and quantitative variables at sector level, which according to the relative analysis of each variable, determine credit quality; in this way the internal credit rating system aims to establish adequate margin in decision-making regarding the management of financial instruments.
In accordance with the criteria and considerations specified in the internal rating allocation and external credit rating systems methodologies, the following schemes of relation can be established, according to credit quality given to each one of the qualification scales.
Low Risk: all investment grade positions (from AAA to BBB-), as well as those issuers that according to the information available (financial statements, relevant information, external ratings, CDS, among others) reflect adequate credit quality.
Medium Risk: all speculative grade positions (from BB+ to BB-), as well as those issuers that according to the available information (Financial statements, relevant information, external qualifications, CDS, among others) reflect weaknesses that could affect their financial situation in the medium term.
High Risk: all positions of speculative grade (from B+ to D), as well as those issuers that according to the information available (Financial statements, relevant information, external qualifications, CDS, among others) reflect a high probability of default of financial obligations or that already have failed to fulfill them.
The credit risk rating of the Republic of Colombia was downgraded following the latest reports issued on June 26 by Moody’s (to Baa3) and S&P (to BB). As a result, positions in Colombian sovereign debt and Colombian issuers have been reclassified to the medium-risk category.

Note: In derivatives, positive collateral are received from counterparties and collateral negative are delivered to counterparties. Derivative collateral received from counterparties, whose have their market value positive when consolidate all the portfolio derivaties of related ID, in December of 2024 was COP 589,098 and in June of 2025 was COP 511,247. In debt securities, guarantees correspond to Repo, reverse repo, and securities lending trades.
Collateral - other financial instruments
Level of collateral: respect to the type of asset or operation, a collateral level is determined according to the policies defined for each product and the market where the operation is carried out.
Assets held as collateral in organized markets: the only assets that can be received as collateral are those defined by the central counterparties, the stock market where the operation is negotiated, those assets that are settled separately in different contracts or documents, which can be managed by each organization and must comply with the investment policies defined by the Bank, taking into account the credit limit for each type of asset or operation received or delivered, which collateral received are the best credit quality and liquidity.
Assets received as bilateral collateral between counterparties: the collateral accepted in international OTC derivative operations is agreed on bilaterally in the Credit Support Annex (CSA)(5) and with fulfillment in cash in dollars and managed by Citibank N.A. This company acts on behalf of Bancolombia for making international margin calls and providing better management of the collateral.
(5) A Credit Support Annex (CSA) provides credit protection by setting forth the rules governing the mutual posting of collateral. CSAs are used in documenting collateral arrangements between two parties that trade privately negotiated (over the counter) derivative securities. The trade is documented under a standard contract called a master agreement, developed by the International Swaps and Derivatives Association (ISDA).
Collateral adjustments for margin agreements: the adjustments will be determined by the criteria applied by both the external and internal regulations in effect, and at the same time, mitigation standards are maintained so that the operation fulfills the liquidity and solidity criteria for settlement.
d. Credit risk concentration - other financial instruments
Currently, the Bank's positions do not exceed the concentration limit.
Market Risk
The Bank currently measures the treasury book exposure to market risk (including OTC derivatives positions) as well as the currency risk exposure of the banking book, which is provided to the Treasury Division. The exposure to each of the market risk factors is limited according to the risk appetite determined. To achieve this objective, a series of policies and limits are actively managed and monitored.
Within the Bank, several risk measures are used with the objective of quantifying the exposure to risk and, consequently, the effect of portfolio diversification. The main measures are: i) Regulatory VaR, whose calculation are established by Annex VI of the Chapter XXXI of the Basic Accounting and Financial Circular issued by the Financial Superintendence of Colombia and ii) Internal VaR, calculated using a weighted historical methodology with 250 observations, a holding period of 10 days, and a confidence level of 99%, along with hierarchical VaR value limits. The principles and guidelines for Market Risk management remain in accordance with the disclosures made as of December 31, 2024.
Total market risk exposure decreased by 24.4% from COP 1,483,039 in December 2024 to COP 1,120,737 in June 2025. This variation is primarily explained by a lower exposure to the exchange rate risk factor, due to a reduction in positions denominated in U.S. dollars. Secondly, the stock price risk factor decreased as a result of the divestment of certain investments following the creation of Grupo Cibest. Conversely, the interest rate risk factor increased, driven by higher exposure to private debt securities and foreign currency bonds. Lastly, the collective investment funds risk factor also rose, explained by the appreciation of the Colombia Inmobiliario Fund.
Despite the current situation and market volatility, the Bank's Regulatory VaR has remained stable without significant variations:

| VaR Total | 1,483,039 | 1,243,275 | 1,498,215 | 1,041,838 |
Regarding the internal measurement of value at risk, no relevant variations were identified in the VaR metrics at the end of the quarter, nor were any exceedances of the approved limits.
It is important to mention that these exposures are under constant monitoring by senior management and serve as a tool for decision-making to preserve the stability of the Bank.
•Measuring interest rate risk in the banking book
Interest rate risk is understood as the possibility of incurring losses due to a decrease in the economic value of assets or a reduction in the net interest margin, as a consequence of changes in interest rates. The impact of these variations could be reflected in the financial margin and, consequently, in equity due to the risks inherent in active and passive transactions, as well as in the administration of the resources that the Bank manages day to day.
The Bank adopts the guidelines for Interest Rate Risk of the Banking Book (IRRBB) established in Chapter XXXI - SIAR of the Basic Accounting and Financial Circular 100 of 1995, Annex 15 Standard Methodology to determine the IRRBB, on assets, liabilities and off-balance sheet positions indicated by the Financial Superintendency of Colombia.
In this regard, an IRRBB Management Framework has been designed, including the BBCSR (Bank Book Credit Spread Risk), which aims to measure its impact on the EVE (Economic Value of Equity) delta and on the NIM (Net Interest Margin) delta.
•Interest Rate Risk Exposure (Banking Book)
Net Interest Income Sensitivity (ΔNII)
The ΔNII allows measuring the impact of interest rate risk on the Bank's financial income and expenses over a one-year time horizon. This approach allows assessing the effect of changes in interest rates on projected interest income and interest expense flows, providing a view of the immediate impact on the Bank's profitability.
To evaluate the change in Net Interest Margin (ΔNII), the use of two specific shock scenarios is established: an upward parallel shock and a downward parallel shock. These shocks involve uniform shifts of the interest rate curve upward or downward, allowing for an analysis of how these variations affect the net interest margin over a one-year horizon.
Table 1. Sensitivity ΔNII
| | | | | | | | |
| Positions | June 30, 2025 | December 31, 2024 |
| In millions of COP |
| Sensitivity of the asset | 5,260,643 | | 5,047,412 | |
| Sensitivity of liabilities | 4,211,671 | | 3,989,352 | |
| NII sensitivity (NII Delta) | 1,048,972 | | 1,058,060 | |
The ΔNII for the June cutoff is COP 1.04 trillion under a parallel downward scenario, considering the positive mismatch of repricing and capital maturities of less than one year. The reduction observed in the ΔNII between June and December is explained by the implementation of accounting hedging strategies, which have increased the sensitivity of liabilities. This effect has been reinforced by the rise in term deposits (CDTs) with maturities of less than one year, which has helped mitigate the impact of a potential decrease in interest rates on the NII.
In June, accounting hedges contributed to a reduction of COP 64,157 in the ΔNII, representing a 6.12% mitigation of the risk reflected by this metric. Without the effect of these hedges, the ΔNII would have reached COP 1.11 trillion, highlighting the risk-reducing role of the implemented accounting strategies.
Assumptions and limitations
• The analysis is performed under the assumption of a constant balance, which implies that the cash flows that mature/reprice are replaced by new flows with the current terms of each product. that the cash flows that mature are replaced by new flows with identical characteristics in terms of term and interest rate.
• The projection of the flows includes behavioral options such as the prepayment of the fixed-rate portfolio, the maturation of the deposit accounts and the implicit or explicit options of the fixed-rate commitments and the variable-rate prepayments of the wholesale portfolio segment.
Economic Value of Equity Delta (ΔEVE)
The ΔEVE measurement evaluates the change in the net present value of cash flows of assets, liabilities and off-balance sheet items until maturity, under stress scenarios. The objective is to capture how changes in interest rates affect the economic value of the Bank's equity.
This calculation incorporates interest rate shocks applied to the risk-free zero-coupon curve, according to each currency, considering six scenarios, to evaluate the impact of interest rates under various market conditions on the present value of the cash flows of the banking book operations, which in turn determines the economic value of the Bank.

| Sensitivity of liabilities | 5,404,062 | | 4,985,977 | |
| Sensitivity EVE (Delta EVE) | 2,015,785 | | 1,862,860 | |
(1) The exclusion of Bancolombia's commercial margins increases the Delta EVE by COP 317,352 under a parallel interest rate increase scenario. On the other hand, including the RSCLB (Credit Spread Risk of the Banking Book) would increase the EVE by COP 5,571, without representing a significant amount of IRBB (Interest Rate Risk in the Banking Book).
As of June 2025, Bancolombia's ΔEVE is COP 2.01 trillion under a scenario with a parallel upward shift in market interest rates. The ΔEVE increased by COP 152,925 compared to the December closing, explained by the growth in the mortgage portfolio balance and hedging swaps, which were offset by the increase in the balance of savings accounts.
The ΔEVE represents 9.17% of the ordinary basic equity plus additional basic equity, and therefore complies with the regulatory limit established in Chapter XXXI - SIAR of the Basic Accounting and Financial Circular 100 of 1995, Annex 15, which is equivalent to 15% of the ordinary basic equity plus additional basic equity.
During the month of June, accounting hedges generated an increase of COP 193,123 in the ΔEVE, representing a 9.58% rise compared to the value without hedges. This implies that, without considering the effect of accounting hedges, the ΔEVE would have stood at COP 1.82 trillion.
Assumptions and limitations
• The analysis is performed under the liquidation balance assumption, which implies that existing positions are amortized and not replaced by any new business.
• The projection of the flows includes behavioral options such as the prepayment of the fixed-rate portfolio, the maturation of the deposit accounts and the implicit or explicit options of the fixed-rate commitments and the variable-rate prepayments of the wholesale portfolio segment.
Liquidity Risk
Liquidity risk refers to the possibility of not being able to efficiently and timely meet payment obligations, both expected and unexpected, present and future, without affecting the normal course of daily operations or the financial condition of the entity. This risk occurs when there is a shortage of available liquid assets or when it is necessary to assume unusual financing costs.
During the second quarter of the year, liquidity levels remained within adequate ranges, mainly supported by the positive performance of funding through term deposits (CDTs) and deposit accounts. These resources enabled the institution to meet the growth in loan disbursements without compromising its liquidity position.
Liquid Assets have remained consistently above the established limits.

•Liquidity Risk Exposure
To estimate liquidity risk, a liquidity coverage indicator (IRL) is calculated that corresponds to the relationship between liquid assets and their net liquidity requirements for a horizon of 30 calendar days. This indicator allows you to know the liquidity coverage you have for the next month.
The net liquidity requirement is calculated from the flow of contractual maturities of the asset and the flow of contractual and non-contractual maturities of the liability, as defined in Chapter XXXI, of the Basic Accounting and Financial Circular of the Financial Superintendency of Colombia.
Below are the results of liquidity coverage for the Bank:
