The ratings also factor in its reliance on wholesale funding, working-out of troubled legacy assets and small absolute size of capital. Strong Regional Economy: Sandnes benefits from operating in Norway, and south-west Norway in particular. In its base case scenario Fitch Ratings expects the region's macroeconomic environment to remain favourable, loan impairment charges (LICs) to remain low and growth opportunities to remain robust. Wholesale funding costs should continue to benefit from investors positive perception of Norwegian issuers. Performance to Remain Sound: After significant LICs led to an operating loss in 2010, Sandnes financial performance stabilised again in 2011 and Lending margins improved in 2012, offsetting lower deposits margins and supporting net interest income (NII), which is the bank s most important revenue stream. Sandnes operating profitability remains sensitive to rising LICs, which could be driven by a deterioration in the region s economy or from the bank s still material customer concentrations. Sound Headline Asset Quality: Sandnes non-performing loans represented a low 0.3% of gross loans at end However, Sandnes has a relatively significant legacy portfolio in its SME business, where non-performing plus impaired (but still performing) loans represented a more material 3.4% at end-2012 (end-2011: 5.7%). As a result of the bank working out legacy exposure, changing the business towards less risky business sectors and a strong Norwegian economy, Fitch expects the stock of impaired loans to continue to reduce. Dependent on Wholesale Funding: Sandnes' reliance on market funding is a key rating sensitivity, which makes the bank vulnerable to prolonged dislocations in the wholesale funding markets. Keeping its liquidity buffer adequate in size and quality is key to mitigating such risks. Small Absolute Capital Base: Fitch considers Sandnes small capital base a rating constraint. Capital ratios are improving as the bank has built up capital and reduced its risk-weighted assets. Basel III rules will only have a minor effect on the bank, Fitch understands. Low Probability of Support: Sandnes' Support Rating reflects Fitch's view of an only low extraordinary support probability from the Norwegian authorities, because of the bank's small size (11th-largest Norwegian bank). Fitch has not assigned a Support Rating Floor. Rating Sensitivities Regional Economy Drives Prospects: Its regionally very concentrated exposure means the bank s prospects are linked to the regional economy, which is highly correlated to oil and gas industry developments. The bank s exposure as a proportion of its loan book to more volatile sectors such as commercial real estate, although reducing, remains above that of peers. Analysts Jens Hallén jens.hallen@fitchratings.com Olivia Perney Guillot olivia.perney@fitchratings.com Environment, Asset Stability Likely: The Stable Outlook reflects Fitch's expectation of the operating environment in Norway remaining sound, supporting Sandnes' asset quality and maintained access to market funding. Fitch expects the bank to remain focused on reducing risk, which supports its ratings. 19

2 Profile: Small Savings Bank with Regional Footprint Strategic Focus on Retail and SME Clients Sandnes is a small savings bank (around 170 staff at end-2012) whose main operating region is Rogaland, in oil-rich south-western Norway. The bank s strategy centres on the retail and SME segments where it serves 42,000 and 5,000 customers, respectively. Its strong regional roots give it market shares of around 16% in the SME and 11% retail markets in its home market. Sandnes also has a branch in Oslo. Figure 1 Ownership Structure a (%) Share Sparebank 1 SR-Bank 10.1 Finansavdelingen Top Widely held 62.5 a Holdings of equity certificates at end-2012 Source: Sandnes Sandnes expanded its SME loan book aggressively until the start of the global financial crisis in 2008, including to the property development sector. The quality of some of these exposures started to suffer in 2008 and the bank s stock of doubtful loans jumped (see Figure 6). Since then the bank s senior management, including its CEO, has changed, and the bank has invested significantly in upgrading its risk functions and working out troubled legacy exposures. Sandnes primary focus has shifted to building and maintaining profitable customer relationships, rather than growth. Enhanced customer focus, simpler products and a robust risk management framework are at the heart of this strategy. The bank also owns SSB Boligkreditt, a funding vehicle for covered bonds. Competitive Banking Sector Sandnes faces fierce competition in its operating region. Sparebank 1 SR-Bank (A /Stable), the largest bank in the Sparebank 1 Alliance (which also holds a 10% stake in Sandnes) is a very strong regional player and so is DnB Bank (A+/Stable), Norway s largest banking group. Competition has led to an erosion of interest margins, and rising costs in the wholesale funding markets have affected net interest income (NII). Banks have started to increase rates but competition may limit their pricing power. However, Fitch expects lending margins to increase in 2013, but deposit margins to remain low as a result of the generally low interest rates. A strong focus on cost efficiency and improving cross-selling are important aspects for Sandnes to remain competitive. Economic Environment Likely to Remain Favourable Fitch expects the Norwegian banking sector to continue to benefit from Norway s favourable economic environment. Despite the slow eurozone growth likely in 2013, Fitch forecasts healthy real Norwegian GDP growth and expects unemployment to remain low. Sandnes prospects are highly linked to its economic home region. Rogaland s regional economy, which is one of Norway s main regions for oil production and Sandnes main operating area, has developed very strongly in recent years, driven by high investments in the oil industry. Fitch expects investments to remain high. This has fuelled demand for labour and housing. Unemployment in the area is significantly below the Norwegian average, but wage increases and net migration to the region combined with limited building activity has also led to Norway s most rapid increase in real estate prices. Figure 2 Economic Data (%) Avg e 2013f Real GDP (Total) Real GDP (Mainland) Unemployment Inflation Source: Fitch Related Criteria Global Financial Institutions Rating Criteria (August 2012) Neither Rogaland nor Norway s economy is immune from global economic uncertainty. As a small, open economy with large export-driven and oil-price dependent industries, Norway, and consequently its banks, are vulnerable to slowing global growth, falling commodity prices and an appreciation of the Norwegian krone. 2

3 Corporate Governance Sandnes owners are the holders of equity capital certificates. Representatives of the owners, together with public appointees, employees and customer representatives, sit on the supervisory board, whose nomination committee appoints the board of directors. Corporate governance principles are in line with the Norwegian code on corporate governance. Figure 3 Profitability (%) Source: Sandnes, Fitch Cost/Income (LHS) NIM (RHS) Operating ROE (RHS) (%) Performance: Improving Profitability Driven by Resilient Margins, Cost Focus and Low LICs Like other Norwegian banks, Sandnes benefits from the benign economic operating environment, which has led to negligible loan losses for most banks, particularly in the retail portfolios. Intense competition has led to pressure on margins, but since the beginning of 2012 the major banks have started to increase margins. There is high re-pricing flexibility on existing exposures as banks can alter pricing at six weeks notice. NII is Sandnes most important revenue source, accounting for around two-thirds to threequarters of total revenue. Higher lending margins offset contracting deposit margins and low loan book growth, and NII improved somewhat in Income from fees and commissions was virtually flat in the year. Mark-to-market gains on financial instruments and other revenue streams made up the balance. Reflecting tight cost control and a more focussed business model, Sandnes has reduced its staff numbers to just over 170 at end-2012 from 240 since overhauling its strategy. Its cost/income ratio has improved as a result and at around 60% in 2012 was more in line with that of other rated Norwegian savings banks. LICs and net charge-offs remained very low, reflecting the benign economic operating environment and the bank s efforts in recent years to de-risk its balance sheet. Although Fitch does not expect significant increases in the policy rate in Norway in the short term, a generally higher rate environment would benefit Sandnes, as it is reliant on interest income. In light of the bank s regionally highly concentrated operations, Fitch considers an adverse development of the regional economy, which could feed through into the income statement via significantly higher LICs, a key risk to Sandnes financial performance. Adverse effects from working-out legacy assets are reducing and the bank has refocused its business away from generating higher-risk exposures. Good Progress in Implementing More Robust Risk Management Framework When new management came into the bank in , additional focus on risk management became an integral part of the reshaping. Risk management is good in the context of the bank s size and the complexity of its business model.

Sandnes asset-quality ratios have to be seen both in the context of its legacy book, including large exposures to property development, and the benign macroeconomic environment in Rogaland, to which 80% of gross loans relate. Although Fitch does not consider legacy exposures to pose a major downside risk to asset quality in its base case scenario, as troubled exposures are being worked out and are adequately provisioned, the bank s high single-name, geographical and sector concentrations in its loan book expose the bank to tail risk. Positively, Sandnes has reduced its exposure to development finance and as part of its revised strategy now also focuses on SMEs rather than medium-sized corporate customers. Asset Quality in Troubled SME Portfolio Improving Despite robust performance by the commercial real estate market in Rogaland, the bank has only limited appetite for new business in the property management sector. The key focus remains on managing down concentrations in the portfolio. Since changing its strategy in 2009, Sandnes has reduced its exposure to the corporate and SME segments by just over 20% from end-2008, to around NOK8bn at end In 2008 the bank impaired a significant part of its exposures to property developments where the ultimate sale of the properties had become uncertain (see Figure 6). The volume of these impaired loans has reduced since end-2008, with no material increases in reserves required during 2011 and Fitch expects the stock of impaired loans to reduce further in Nevertheless, Fitch considers that in light of its size and concentrations within overall loans the property management portfolio is a potential downside risk for the bank. Retail Lending Dominated by Low-risk Mortgages Retail lending accounted for around two-thirds of total loans at end-2012, most of which related to low-risk mortgage lending. Driven by continuing increases in house prices, very low unemployment and high affordability due to historically low interest rates, the quality of the portfolio continues to improve. Less than a fifth of mortgage loans had loan/value ratios of above 75% at end-2012, down from around a third at end This reflects the bank s new lower-risk strategy, but also increasing house prices. In light of the bank s low loan growth in this segment in recent years, when compared with the Norwegian market, the quality of the bank s retail portfolio has some protection should prices decline. As part of its revised strategy, Sandnes has moved away from aiming to be a price leader in the mortgage market to developing profitable, long-term relationships. Customer numbers have decreased slightly as a consequence. As part of the effort to clean up the portfolio the bank is discontinuing business with customers whose accounts with Sandnes centre on legacy products, mainly in structured finance. It has reduced the number of these accounts by more than 30% since Moderate Credit Risk in the Liquidity and Investment Portfolio Sandnes liquidity and investment portfolio represented around 10% of the bank s total assets at end Sandnes liquidity portfolio consists of central bank eligible assets and focuses on Basel III-eligible assets. Covered bonds made up almost half of the portfolio and around a third of the portfolio was rated AAA at end The liquidity and investment portfolio is almost entirely made up of Nordic issuers. Moderate Market Risk Market risk measurement is based on the standardised approach. The bank has conservative market risk limits and uses derivatives to hedge exposures. Interest rate exposure is measured 4

5 at three-monthly intervals from 0-10 years. At end-2012, a 200bp parallel shift in the yield curve would have had a low NOK2m impact on net income. This is well within the NOK15m limit set by the board. At end-2012, 7% of Sandnes total balance sheet assets were denominated in foreign currencies, dominated by Swiss francs, euros and Japanese yen. The risk framework limits Sandnes net positions to NOK110m intraday and NOK100m overnight. The bank daily measures currency risk on the basis of net positions in different currencies. Figure 8 Liquidity and Investment Portfolio by Rating Category (End-H112, NOKm) AAA AA A BBB BB and below Source: Sandnes Figure Non-equity Funding (End-2012) Covered bonds 15% Wholesale deposits 25% Source: Sandnes Retail deposits 33% Unsecured market funding 27% Operational Risk Sandnes uses the basic indicator approach to measure its capital requirement for operational risk. Operational risk mainly arises from legacy items such as FX loans and legal risks related to the sale of structured products. These key sources of operational risk have reduced in line with the volumes of foreign-currency loans and structured products under the bank s new, more risk focussed strategy. The bank has not experienced any major operational risk losses. It is simplifying processes, reducing the complexity of products offered and has implemented improved monitoring tools for operational risk to reduce its future levels. Funding and Liquidity Wholesale Funding Dependence Sandnes non-equity funding base is dominated by retail customer deposits, covered bonds and unsecured market funding (mostly senior unsecured bonds). The bank s loan/deposit ratio was around 180% at end-2012, broadly in line with the bank s internal target and those of other Fitch-rated savings banks in Norway; the latter in particular taking into account nonconsolidated covered bonds funding. The ratio should improve while loan growth remains slow. The deposit base is quite granular owing to the bank s retail focus. Although deposits have proved very stable in behavioural analysis, the bank is looking to source more long-term funding and diversify its investor base through international issuance and longer-dated bonds. The bank s reported Net Stable Funding Ratio was 98% at end At end-2012 the bank had transferred NOK6.4bn of loans to Boligkreditt and issued NOK5.3bn of covered bonds; it used NOK2bn of the latter in the government bond swap scheme. The bank s internal limit on the amount of loans that can be transferred to Boligkreditt is the higher of 45% of retail loans or 30% of total loans. The limit at end-2012 would therefore have been around NOK7bn. Liquidity Sandnes high loan/deposit ratio and position as a net borrower in the interbank market are potential sensitivities. The bank s liability maturity profile shows some larger maturities in 2014, but is well spread in general. The bank s liquidity portfolio consists mostly of highly rated, central bank-eligible government and government-guaranteed bonds, and covered bonds. Internal requirements for free liquidity and strategic liquidity have each been increased by three months to nine and 15 months, respectively. The bank reports a Liquidity Buffer Indicator to the Norwegian central bank, similar to the Liquidity Coverage Ratio, which was 126% at end Improving Capitalisation At NOK1.9bn at end-2012, the size of the bank s Fitch core capital base is small in absolute terms and relative to its largest exposures. Although it is part of Sandnes strategy to manage down concentrations, the small absolute amount of capital will remain a constraint in Fitch s assessment of Sandnes capital position; it could also leave the bank vulnerable to shocks. 5

The bank uses the standardised approach to calculate its capital requirement, which leaves average risk weights higher than at many of its larger Norwegian peers. Its medium-term minimum capital target is a 12.5% core Tier 1 ratio by 2015, and it intends to reach this through retained earnings. Its flexible dividend policy should help the bank expand its capital base. 6

11 The ratings above were solicited by, or on behalf of, the issuer, and therefore, Fitch has been compensated for the provision of the ratings. ALL FITCH CREDIT RATINGS ARE SUBJECT TO CERTAIN LIMITATIONS AND DISCLAIMERS. PLEASE READ THESE LIMITATIONS AND DISCLAIMERS BY FOLLOWING THIS LINK: IN ADDITION, RATING DEFINITIONS AND THE TERMS OF USE OF SUCH RATINGS ARE AVAILABLE ON THE AGENCY'S PUBLIC WEB SITE AT PUBLISHED RATINGS, CRITERIA, AND METHODOLOGIES ARE AVAILABLE FROM THIS SITE AT ALL TIMES. FITCH'S CODE OF CONDUCT, CONFIDENTIALITY, CONFLICTS OF INTEREST, AFFILIATE FIREWALL, COMPLIANCE, AND OTHER RELEVANT POLICIES AND PROCEDURES ARE ALSO AVAILABLE FROM THE CODE OF CONDUCT SECTION OF THIS SITE. Copyright 2013 by Fitch, Inc., Fitch Ratings Ltd. and its subsidiaries. One State Street Plaza, NY, NY Telephone: , (212) Fax: (212) Reproduction or retransmission in whole or in part is prohibited except by permission. All rights reserved. In issuing and maintaining its ratings, Fitch relies on factual information it receives from issuers and underwriters and from other sources Fitch believes to be credible. Fitch conducts a reasonable investigation of the factual information relied upon by it in accordance with its ratings methodology, and obtains reasonable verification of that information from independent sources, to the extent such sources are available for a given security or in a given jurisdiction. The manner of Fitch s factual investigation and the scope of the third-party verification it obtains will vary depending on the nature of the rated security and its issuer, the requirements and practices in the jurisdiction in which the rated security is offered and sold and/or the issuer is located, the availability and nature of relevant public information, access to the management of the issuer and its advisers, the availability of pre-existing third-party verifications such as audit reports, agreed-upon procedures letters, appraisals, actuarial reports, engineering reports, legal opinions and other reports provided by third parties, the availability of independent and competent third-party verification sources with respect to the particular security or in the particular jurisdiction of the issuer, and a variety of other factors. Users of Fitch s ratings should understand that neither an enhanced factual investigation nor any third-party verification can ensure that all of the information Fitch relies on in connection with a rating will be accurate and complete. Ultimately, the issuer and its advisers are responsible for the accuracy of the information they provide to Fitch and to the market in offering documents and other reports. In issuing its ratings Fitch must rely on the work of experts, including independent auditors with respect to financial statements and attorneys with respect to legal and tax matters. Further, ratings are inherently forward-looking and embody assumptions and predictions about future events that by their nature cannot be verified as facts. As a result, despite any verification of current facts, ratings can be affected by future events or conditions that were not anticipated at the time a rating was issued or affirmed. The information in this report is provided as is without any representation or warranty of any kind. A Fitch rating is an opinion as to the creditworthiness of a security. This opinion is based on established criteria and methodologies that Fitch is continuously evaluating and updating. Therefore, ratings are the collective work product of Fitch and no individual, or group of individuals, is solely responsible for a rating. The rating does not address the risk of loss due to risks other than credit risk, unless such risk is specifically mentioned. Fitch is not engaged in the offer or sale of any security. All Fitch reports have shared authorship. Individuals identified in a Fitch report were involved in, but are not solely responsible for, the opinions stated therein. The individuals are named for contact purposes only. A report providing a Fitch rating is neither a prospectus nor a substitute for the information assembled, verified and presented to investors by the issuer and its agents in connection with the sale of the securities. Ratings may be changed or withdrawn at anytime for any reason in the sole discretion of Fitch. Fitch does not provide investment advice of any sort. Ratings are not a recommendation to buy, sell, or hold any security. Ratings do not comment on the adequacy of market price, the suitability of any security for a particular investor, or the tax-exempt nature or taxability of payments made in respect to any security. Fitch receives fees from issuers, insurers, guarantors, other obligors, and underwriters for rating securities. Such fees generally vary from US$1,000 to US$750,000 (or the applicable currency equivalent) per issue. In certain cases, Fitch will rate all or a number of issues issued by a particular issuer, or insured or guaranteed by a particular insurer or guarantor, for a single annual fee. Such fees are expected to vary from US$10,000 to US$1,500,000 (or the applicable currency equivalent). The assignment, publication, or dissemination of a rating by Fitch shall not constitute a consent by Fitch to use its name as an expert in connection with any registration statement filed under the United States securities laws, the Financial Services and Markets Act of 2000 of the United Kingdom, or the securities laws of any particular jurisdiction. Due to the relative efficiency of electronic publishing and distribution, Fitch research may be available to electronic subscribers up to three days earlier than to print subscribers. 11
