Talanx achieves Group net income of slightly above EUR 900 million

Dissemination of an Ad hoc announcement pursuant to Article 17 MAR

Hannover, 7 February 2017. On the basis of consolidated, preliminary
numbers for the fiscal year 2016, the Talanx Aktiengesellschaft (ISIN:
DE000TLX1005) has achieved a Group net income of slightly above EUR 900
million (2015: EUR 734 million) thereby clearly surpassing its own earnings
target. On the one hand, this results from lower than expected large losses
in the Group. On the other hand, special tax effects have also contributed
to the improvement of the result.

Subject to the approval of the supervisory board, the dividend proposal for
the fiscal year 2016 to the AGM will be increased to EUR 1.35 (2015: EUR
1.30). For 2017, Talanx raises the outlook for Group net income to around
EUR 800 million from previously at least EUR 750 million.

Talanx will release its final financial results as well as its annual
report on 20 March 2017.
