Significant accounting policies Statement of compliance The condensed interim financial statements of Nordea Bank Polska S.A. for the 12-month period ended on 31 December 2012 have been drawn up in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standard 34 Interim Financial Reporting approved by the European Union and other applicable regulations, including the Regulation of the Minister of Finance dated 19 February 2009 in respect of current and periodic information published by issuers of securities and conditions for recognizing as equivalent information required by the laws of a non-member state (Dz. U., No 33 item 259). The accounting principles followed in the preparation of the Condensed Interim Financial Statements of Nordea Bank Polska S.A. for the Fourth Quarter of 2012 are consistent with the accounting principles followed and specified in the interim financial statements for the first half of An earlier application of standards that are not yet mandatory as well as amendments to the existing standards and interpretations issued by the International Financial Reporting Standards Interpretation Committee (IFRSIC). In its statements the Bank does not follow any standards which are not yet mandatory nor any changes in the existing standard or interpretations FRSIC. Comparability with previous periods In the annual report for the year ended on 31 December 2011, the Bank stated commission expenses related to insurance products amounting to PLN 8,756 thousand in the line Commission expenses (previously PLN 35,884 thousand; now PLN 27,128 thousand.). In this Report, the presentation of this item has been changed and this amount adjusts the line Interest income by PLN 8,488 thousand (previously PLN 1,047,227 thousand; now PLN 1,038,739 thousand) and line Commission income by PLN 268 thousand (previously PLN thousand; now PLN 143,482 thousand). Furthermore, there was a change in the presentation of income from reversed unutilised provisions, which were presented in the Statement of Comprehensive Income in that reporting period in line Other operating income in the amount of PLN 2,735 thousand (previously PLN 9,450 thousand, now PLN 26,715 thousand), which now adjust the value of Other administrative expenses (previously PLN 267,515 thousand, now PLN 264,780 thousand). 10

11 3. Key factors influencing the result achieved by the Bank in the fourth quarter of External factors and events In Q4 2012, the Polish economy was more and more affected by the earlier deterioration in the economic climate in the external surroundings, including a decrease in the economic activity in the euro zone, a slowdown of the economic growth in Germany, which is Poland s main trading partner. At the same time, due to earlier political decisions in the euro zone and firmer steps taken by the European Central Bank (ECB), the last quarter of 2012 further pacified the fears connected with the sovereign debt crisis in the euro zone, which led to recovery on the global financial markets. The main central banks continued their ultra-mild monetary policies (and the Fed even implemented a new quantitative easing programme), which caused the money market rates on the major currencies (USD, EUR, CHF, GBP) to drop and as a result some of them were close to zero. The Swiss central bank was firm in defending the low limit on the EURCHF exchange rate at the level of 1.20 throughout Towards the end of the year, the market rate started to move away from this barrier as the alleviation of fears for the euro zone reduced demand for Swiss assets. In spite of the weak economic climate at the main trading partners, Q saw a slight recovery in trading, which lead to a small improvement in the dynamic of Polish exports. Apart from the deferred effects of the earlier meltdown in external demand, a drop in the domestic economic activity was also caused by the on-going fiscal austerity process, which limited investments in the public sector. The investment activity of the private sector was weakened by symptoms of falling demand for goods and services by companies and a general uncertainty concerning future developments in the global and the domestic economies. What further undermined investments and demand for credit was the relatively high level of central bank rates after the hike made by the Monetary Policy Council (MPC) in May The reduction in the interest rates commenced by the MPC in November 2012 was belated and not deep enough to be a factor which could at least mitigate the negative trends in the economy by the end of The weakening of investments hit the domestic labour market. There were further redundancies and so the unemployment rate increased. The difficult situation on the labour market dampened the growth in consumer demand and demand for credit, as well as worsening the quality of the credit portfolio. On the basis of the available monthly economic activity ratios for the period from October to December 2012, one can estimate that the GDP growth decelerated in the last quarter of 2012 decelerated to about 0.5% from 1.4% in Q In the wake of a marked decrease in demand, the appreciation of the zloty and the effect of a high statistical base, the CPI inflation took a visible downward turn in Q4 to reach 2.4% at the year end, which was below the central bank s inflationary target. Faced with the economic meltdown and given the sudden decrease in inflation, the MPC started cutting the central bank rates in November. After two cuts in November and December, by 25 bps each, at the end of 2012, the central bank s reference rate stood at 4.25%. 11

12 The U-turn in the domestic monetary policy resulted in speeding up the downward trend of the WIBOR rates in Q4 2012, which had emerged some time before. The average monthly WIBOR 3M, which is the reference rate for many kinds of loans, dropped to 4.26% in December, and further down to 4.11 at the end of the year. The average WIBOR 3M for the whole of 2012 amounted to 4.91% compared with 4.54% in The improvement in moods on the global markets in the wake of the ECB s decisions alleviating the sovereign debt crisis in the euro zone led to a marked appreciation of the PLN against the major currencies compared with the end of At 31/12/2012, the EUR/PLN, USD/PLN and CHF/PLN exchange rates stood at 4.09, 3.10 and 3.39 respectively, vs. 4.42, 3.42 and 3.62 at the end of The appreciation of the domestic currency reduced the cost of service of foreign currency loans, which mitigated the negative developments in the quality of such loans. During 2012, a clear deceleration trend in lending was visible. In Q4 2012, the growth in household lending, excluding the effect of exchange rates fluctuation, reached its all-time low. The contributing factors included a slowdown in mortgage lending (in spite of the popularity of the Family on their Own governmental programme, which was drawing to an end) and the continuing decrease in consumer lending. Also, the last quarter of 2012 saw a further drop in corporate lending, the downward trend having emerged earlier, with certain developments around investment loans being the biggest culprit. All in all, while the economic slowdown in 2009 had hit corporate lending the most, this time round, household lending growth decelerated more, reaching its all-time low. What illustrates the scale of the weakening in lending in the course of 2012 best is the fact that it was the second year since the beginning of the 1990s when the total loans to GDP ratio decreased (allowing for the estimates of nominal GDP). The marked decrease in the economic activity in 2012 adversely affected the finances of companies, which entailed a moderate decrease in their deposits. In the household segments, deposits growth also decelerated and their structure changed considerably term deposits surged at the expense of current and savings deposit accounts Internal factors and events The altered external conditions in the wake of the general macroeconomic meltdown as well as the exhaustion of the growth capacity of the previous business model forced the Bank to refocus its retail strategy on advisory banking. However, this meant having to restructure the branch network expanded in to satisfy the requirements of the previous business model, but too big for the advisory approach, and also to reduce or relocate the workforce. As a result, the Bank now has a branch network which is smaller by 55 branches (a reduction from 194 at the end of December 2011 to 139 at present), while the work force decreased by 322 staff (December 2011: 2,333 staff, December 2012 : 2,011). All this entailed considerable extra costs (e.g. impairment of property, plant and equipment, accelerated depreciation of the improvements in the vacated third-party premises, costs to break lease contracts, severance pay for the dismissed staff), which reduced the Bank s profits starting from Q The Bank s considerable exposure 12

13 to construction companies, which either went bankrupt or started arrangement proceedings, meant that it was necessary to make considerable additional impairment allowances. These factors led to a drop in the dynamics of business volumes of the Bank, whereas the financial results achieved by the Bank in Q were much lower than in the previous periods Balance sheet The table below presents changes in the most important lines of its balance sheet: Selected items (PLN million) 31/12/ /12/2011 Change, % Balance sheet total 33,310 35, % Loans and advances to customers, net Loans and advances to banks 26,463 27, % % *) Deposits from customers 13,467 13, % Deposits from banks**) 17,205 19, % Equity, excluding profit *) Including liabilities under debt securities issued (cf. p. 27) **) inclusive of the subordinated loan (cf. p. 21) 2,148 1, % Between 31/12/2011 and 31/12/2012, the balance sheet total of the Bank decreased by PLN 2.0bn (-5.7%) to PLN 33.3bn. On the assets side, this is a result of a decrease by PLN 2.5bn (-42.3%) in the portfolio of debt securities, which are the main components of financial assets at fair value through profit or loss, and a decrease in loans and advances to customers by PLN 1.1bn (-4.1%), with a simultaneous rise in balances with the central bank by PLN 1.4bn (+139.3%). On the liabilities side, there was first of all an increase in subordinated liabilities (by PLN 723m or 134.7%) and deposits from customers (by PLN 175m, or 1.3%). On the other hand, other liabilities towards banks decreased by nearly PLN 2.9bn (-15.3%). It should be added that because of the major percentage of FX loans in the total portfolio of loans and advances to customers and of the deposits from banks financing such loans, as mentioned above the business volumes were also pushed down by the serious appreciation of the PLN against the currencies in which the loans were made. Comparing the exchange rates as at 31/12/2011 with those as at 31/12/2012 (PLN/EUR: a drop from to ; PLN/CHF: a drop from to ), one can see the strengthening of the PLN by 7.4% towards the euro and by 6.8% towards the Swiss franc. At the end of December 2012, gross loans and advances to customers (including interest, commercial papers and municipal bonds) amounted to PLN 26,770m, having decreased by PLN 965m (-3.5%) on the previous year. PLN-denominated loans grew by PLN 667m (+7.5%), whereas the PLN equivalent of FX loans shrunk by PLN 1,632m (-8.7%), which was brought about by the appreciation of the PLN, as mentioned above, as well as a decrease in the volumes in the original currencies. This was particularly the case of mortgage loans, whose total amount decreased by nearly one billion PLN, while the balance of PLN loans grew by PLN 229m, with the balance of FX loans decreasing by the equivalent of PLN 1,223m. Assets 13

14 A predominant part of the bank s assets was made up of loans and advances to customers, representing 79.4% of the balance sheet total (1.3 pps up on 2011). The percentage of financial instruments at fair value through profit or loss (this category containing practically the whole portfolio of debt securities issued by the State and the National Bank of Poland) decreased from 17.3% to 10.4%, with the percentage of loans and advances to banks increasing from 0.8% to 1,7%. On the other hand, the percentage of the most liquid funds (cash and balances with central bank) grew from 2.9% to 7.3%. The scale of changes in the structure of liabilities was much less significant: total liabilities represented 93.1% of the balance sheet total (93.9% in 2011), where the percentage of loans and advances to customers grew from 37.6% to 40.4%, that of subordinated liabilities increased from 1.5% to 3.8%, whereas other liabilities to banks decreased in terms of percentages from 53.3% to 47.9%. Liabilities The value of deposits from customers, including interest (i.e. deposits and liabilities under debt securities issued), dipped 0.5% between 31/12/2012 and 31/12/2011 to PLN 13,467m. This is a consequence of an increase in customer deposits alone, by PLN 166m (+1.3%), and the expiry of certificates of deposits with the nominal amount of PLN 250m. Deposits grew in the corporate sector, by PLN 614m (or 6.9%), while household deposits decreased PLN 196m (-5.3%), as did public sector deposits, by PLN 252m (-44%). The currency structure of customer deposits changed very little during the reporting period: the share of PLN deposits (with interest) in the total amount of deposits from customers dropped by 1.6 percentage points (from 89.8% to 88.2%). PLN deposit went down by PLN 65m (-0.5%), while the volume of foreign currency deposits increased by the equivalent of PLN 240m (+17.8%, the growth being distributed among the Euro, the pound sterling, the US dollar, the Swiss franc and the Nordic currencies). The Bank s total equity, understood as the sum of the equity, retained earnings and profit for the period, was 7.1% higher at the end of 2012 than at 31/12/2011. The equity alone grew by 16.0% as a result of appropriation of the whole 2011 profit (PLN 296.7m) to reserves. 14

15 Profit and loss account The altered market conditions reshaped the structure of income and expenses, but the overall financial results of the fourth quarter of 2012 are close to the figures reported for the comparable period of The following table presents the growth dynamic of the key lines of the profit and loss account of Nordea Bank Polska S.A. for the fourth quarter of 2012, in juxtaposition with the comparable figures for the fourth quarter of 2011: Selected items of the statement of comprehensive income (PLNm) Q Q Change operating income % operating expenses (133.5) (150.4) -11.2% Operating profit % Profit before income tax % Income tax (20.1) (19.9) +1.3% Profit for the period % Operating income In Q4 2012, operating income reached PLN 231.8m, a figure 14.5% lower than the one reported in Q The main reasons for the decrease was a considerably reduced net interest income and gains on instruments at fair value through profit or loss and on revaluation: - net interest income (PLN 167.7m) was 8.3% lower, where interest income dropped by 1.7%, and interest expenses rose by 8.0%. The contributing factors included a lower volume of and interest rates on FX loans and lower interest rates on PLN loans. As far as liabilities are concerned, the struggle to keep up the deposits volume continued with higher cost to attract deposits (growing interest rates on customer deposits due to fierce market competition, replacement of some regular deposits from banks with subordinated debt priced higher but on the other hand increasing the capital base from the point of view of the capital adequacy requirements); - net commission income (PLN 31.2m) decreased by 8.1%, where commission income dipped 1.3% and commission expenses soared by 27.5%, mainly driven by the cost of the guarantee received from the Nordea Group as security for the portfolio of mortgage loans denominated in Swiss francs; 15

16 - - gains on instruments measured at fair value through profit or loss and on revaluation (PLN 24.9m) represented 48.2% of the figure reported in The result was affected by totally different market conditions observed in the two reporting periods: the depreciation of the PLN and the increase in the interest rates on the Polish money market in Q compared with the appreciation of the PLN and the decrease in the interest rates in Q Other negative factors at play included a subdued demand for FX transactions, resulting from the discontinuation of sales and disbursement of new FX mortgages, a growing scale of repayment of mortgage loans in cash by customers and a smaller volume of FX trading by corporates, accompanied by the lowering of the FX spread caused by competition. In such circumstances, the FX profit (PLN 13.8m) accounted for a mere 7% of the previous year s figure. On the other hand, the revaluation of the holdings in securities turned out a profit of PLN 10.5m, whereas in Q4 2011, there was a loss of PLN 0.5m. There was also a positive result on derivative instruments (PLN 0.6m), vs. a loss of PLN 151.7m in Q Operating expenses In Q4 2012, operating expenses reached PLN 133.5m, 11.2% less than in Q4 2011, by and large driven by costs and provisions (totalling PLN 10m), previously set aside for expenses on the restructuring of the branch network and work force of the Bank. Looking at the main components of operating expenses, one can see that: - staff costs (PLN 64.3m) were 13.1% higher as a result of the shifting of some staff from the closed units to positions with higher unit labour cost and the surcharge on pension insurance paid by the employer, which was raised by 2 percentage points; - other administrative expenses (PLN 68.9m) went down by 15.9%, on the back of the positive results of the restructuring efforts (reduced expenses related to rents, maintenance of premises, as well as to marketing, credit administration and training, as a result of the altered product strategy). On the other hand, IT expenses, costs of cleaning and services, expert services, the deposit guarantee scheme (BGF) contribution as well as other taxes and levies, were higher; - depreciation chargé on non-current assets (PLN 10.3m) dropped by 10.9% following the decrease in property, plant and equipment in use. - As operating income decreased relatively more than operating expenses, the Cost/Income ratio deteriorated by 2 percentage points, growing from 55.5% to 57.6% Impairment allowances on loans and advances The absolute amount of impaired loans increased between December 2011 and December 2012 from PLN 318.1m to PLN 487.6m (+ 53.3%), chiefly in the corporate segment. With the decrease in total gross loans, the average percentage of impaired loans in gross loans and advances to customers grew from 1.15% to 1.82 % (households: 1.35 %, corporates: 3.97 %). The balance of impairment allowances on loans and advances also grew, by 185%: the cost of impairment allowances reduced the profit by PLN 159.9m 16

17 (PLN 56.3m in 2011). Most loan losses materialised in Q2 and Q3 2012, with only PLN 11.7m booked in Q4 2012, whereas in 2011, more than a half of the annual loan loss provision cost (PLN 30.0m) was incurred in the last quarter. In spite of the losses, the ratio of impaired loans to total loan portfolio is much lower than the average for all the commercial banks, where the ratios reached 7.5% regarding loans for households and 11.4% regarding loans for corporates (NBP figures as at the end of November 2012). 4. Segment reporting The operating activities of Nordea Bank Polska S.A. are divided into three principal segments: Retail Banking, Corporate Banking and Financial Segment. The Retail Banking segment comprises transactions (other than markets transactions) made at the Bank s branch network, the Internet Branch and the Call Centre as well as the bank outlets being part of the Retail Banking Centre Main Branch. Retail services concern the following groups of customers: small businesses, sole proprietors and household customers. The Corporate Banking segment comprises transactions made with corporate customers (companies of high turnover), Nordic customers, municipalities, hospitals, as well as debt paper trading. It also trades with customers in markets products (foreign exchange and securities trading). The Financial Segment deals with money market transactions, foreign exchange transactions, trading in derivative instruments and debt securities on the interbank market. The banking income and expenses of a segment are income and expenses earned/incurred on sales to external customers, as well as internal settlements between the Bank's segments. External banking income and expenses were allocated to segments based on the allocation of groups of customers to specific business segments (so called customer responsible units). The internal banking result is based on defined assumptions on internal transfer prices. Segment operating expenses are costs of operation of a given segment that may be directly attributed or allocated to the segment. Internal transfer prices used in sales transactions between the segments are based on market prices with appropriate mark-ups. The Bank's assets and liabilities are allocated to segments based on the so-called customer responsibility. The Corporate and Retail Divisions are assigned the customer deposits and loans for which they are respectively responsible. The assets and liabilities that are not allocated to the separate segments are accounted for under "unallocated assets" and "unallocated liabilities". Nordea Bank Polska S.A. operates exclusively in Poland. No material differences in the risk resulting from the geographical location of its outlets have been identified, therefore no geographical segment information is provided. 17
