(FREE TRANSLATION OF THE REPORT ISSUED IN SPANISH) STATUTORY AUDITOR'S REPORT ON THE REVIEW OF THE CONDENSED INTERIM CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL INFORMATION

Dear Shareholders

Grupo Aval Acciones y Valores S.A.:

Introduction

I have reviewed the attached condensed consolidated interim financial information, as of March 31, 2024, of Grupo Aval Acciones y Valores S.A. and subsidiaries (the Group), which includes:

  • the condensed consolidated statement of financial position as of March 31, 2024;
  • the condensed consolidated statement of income for the three-month period ended on March 31, 2024.
  • the condensed consolidated statement of other comprehensive income for the three- month period ended on March 31, 2024;
  • the condensed consolidated statement of changes in equity for the three-month period ended on March 31, 2024;
  • the condensed consolidated statement of cash flows for the three-month period ended on March 31, 2024; and
  • the notes to the condensed interim financial information.

Management is responsible for the preparation and presentation of this condensed consolidated interim financial information in accordance with International Accounting Standard 34 (IAS 34) - Intermediate Financial Information contained in the Accounting and Financial Reporting Standards accepted in Colombia. My responsibility is to express a conclusion on this condensed consolidated financial information based on my review.

Scope of the review

I have carried out my review in accordance with the International Standard for Review Engagements 2410 "Review of Interim Financial Information carried out by the Independent Auditor of the Entity", included in the Information Assurance Standards accepted in Colombia. A review of condensed consolidated interim financial information consists of making inquiries, primarily with those responsible for financial and accounting matters, and the application of analytical and other review procedures. The scope of a review is substantially smaller than that of

an audit carried out in accordance with International Auditing Standards accepted in Colombia and, consequently, it does not allow me to obtain assurance that I have known all the significant matters that could have been identified in an audit. Therefore, I do not express an audit opinion.

Conclusion

Based on my review, nothing has come to my attention that would cause me to assume that the attached condensed interim consolidated financial information of the Group as of March 31, 2024, has not been prepared, in all material respects, in accordance with the International Accounting Standard 34 (IAS 34) - Intermediate Financial Information contained in the Accounting and Financial Reporting Standards accepted in Colombia.
