Disclaimer
This presentation is made by M&G plc (‘M&G’). For the purposes of this notice, ‘presentation’ shall mean and include the document that follows and any oral presentation, any question-and-answer session and any other written or oral material
delivered or distributed by M&G in connection with it. This presentation may contain certain ‘forward-looking statements’ with respect to M&G and its affiliates (the ‘M&G Group’), its plans, its current goals and expectations relating to future
financial condition, performance, results, operating environment, strategy and objectives. Statements that are not historical facts, including statements about M&G’s beliefs and expectations and including, without limitation, statements
containing the words ‘may’, ‘will’, ‘should’, ‘continue’, ‘aims’, ‘estimates’, ‘projects’, ‘believes’, ‘intends’, ‘expects’, ‘plans’, ‘seeks’, ‘outlook’ and ‘anticipates’, and words of similar meaning, are forward-looking statements. These statements are
based on plans, estimates and projections as at the time they are made, and therefore persons reading this announcement are cautioned against placing undue reliance on forward-looking statements.
By their nature, forward-looking statements involve inherent assumptions, risk and uncertainty, as they generally relate to future events and circumstances that may be beyond the M&G Group’s control. A number of important factors could
cause M&G’s actual future financial condition or performance or other indicated results to differ materially from those indicated in any forward-looking statement. Such factors include, but are not limited to, UK domestic and global economic and
business conditions; market-related conditions and risk, including fluctuations in interest rates and exchange rates, corporate liquidity risk and the future trading value of the shares of M&G; investment portfolio-related risks, such as the
performance of financial markets generally; the policies and actions of regulatory authorities, including, for example, new government initiatives; the impact of competition, economic uncertainty, inflation and deflation; the effect on M&G’s
business and results from, in particular, mortality and morbidity trends, longevity assumptions, lapse rates and policy renewal rates; the timing, impact and other uncertainties of future acquisitions or combinations within relevant industries; the
impact of internal projects and other strategic actions, such as transformation programmes, failing to meet their objectives; the impact of operational risks, including risk associated with third-party arrangements, reliance on third-party
distribution channels and disruption to the availability, confidentiality or integrity of M&G’s IT systems (or those of its suppliers); the impact of changes in capital, solvency standards, accounting standards or relevant regulatory frameworks, and
tax and other legislation and regulations in the jurisdictions in which the M&G Group operates; and the impact of legal and regulatory actions, investigations and disputes. These and other important factors may, for example, result in changes to
assumptions used for determining results of operations or re-estimations of reserves for future policy benefits.
Any forward-looking statements contained in this document speak only as of the date on which they are made. M&G expressly disclaims any obligation to update any of the forward-looking statements contained in this document or any other
forward-looking statements it may make, whether as a result of future events, new information or otherwise except as required pursuant to the UK Prospectus Rules, the UK Listing Rules, the UK Disclosure and Transparency Rules, or other
applicable laws and regulations. Nothing in this announcement shall be construed as a profit forecast, or an offer to sell or the solicitation of an offer to buy any securities.
This presentation has been prepared for, and only for, the members of M&G and no other persons. M&G, its directors, employees, agents or advisers do not accept or assume responsibility to any other person to whom this document is shown or
into whose hands it may come, and any such responsibility or liability is expressly disclaimed.

PruFund CSM release to the operating result expected to reduce year-on-year due to:
• 3% lower opening CSM, due to adverse market impact in 2023
Wealth • Lower CSM expected rate of returns due changes in the Strategic Asset Allocation1 of the With-Profits Fund
• Lower CSM amortisation rate due to improved persistency assumptions
Losses in Advice, Platform and Other, expected to gradually reduce over time

Traditional With-Profits CSM release to the operating result expected to reduce year-on-year due to:
• 8% lower opening CSM, due to adverse markets and run-off of the book
• Lower CSM expected rate of returns (same dynamic as per PruFund)
• Lower CSM amortisation rate (same dynamic as per PruFund)
Life
Annuities return on excess assets expected to reduce year-on-year across AOP and Underlying Cap Gen due to:
• Reduction in excess assets due to upstream dividends, and
• Reduction in the rate of return, as illiquid assets previously backing the excess have been used to back liabilities
related to new business
1. In 2023, the With-Profits Fund reduced its exposure to Equities, largely replacing it with Fixed Income assets which over the long-term offer lower expected returns

1. Data shows OBMG returns; OBMG is the largest of the funds within the With-Profits sub fund, backing PruFund Growth Fund – Past performance is not a guide to future performance. The value of an investment can go down as well as up and so customers may not get back the amount they put in.
2. PruFund Growth net returns after charges. Data shows returns for PruFund Growth within a bond wrapper. These returns are representative of a typical return profile for PruFund Growth clients
