Corporate Announcement
Earnings per share in the first quarter of 2022 is DKK 12.1. Pre-tax profit is expected to amount to slightly below DKK 1.1bn in the first quarter of 2022 and is affected by increasing lending growth, particularly to corporate clients, as well as a generally high level of activity. Value adjustments had a marginally positive contribution in addition to moderate reversals of impairment charges. Pre-tax profit has averaged DKK 1,028m per quarter forthe last eight quarters.
Earnings per share in 2022 is now expected to be within the range DKK 44-50, corresponding to a net profit of DKK 3.0bn-3.4bn. The most recent expectations indicated earnings per share of DKK 40-46, corresponding to a net profit of DKK 2.7bn-3.1bn. The approach to capital distribution remains unchanged.
