The Alpha Services and Holding Group, (hereinafter the "Group"), which includes companies in Greece and abroad, offers the following services: corporate and retail banking, financial services, investment banking and brokerage services, insurance services, real estate management, hotel services.
On 16 April 2021, the demerger by way of hive-down of the banking business sector of Alpha Bank S.A. (the "Demerged") was completed and its core banking operations were contributed into a new company – credit institution which was registered under G.E.M.I. on the same date under the name "Alpha Bank S.A." (the "Beneficiary"). Specifically, Alpha Bank S.A substituted the Demerged as universal successor, in all of its assets and liabilities within the banking business sector transferred to it, as these are included in the Transformation balance sheet of 30.6.2020 and were formed until 16.4.2021, the completion date of the demerger.
The "Demerged" by assuming the 100% of the issued shares of Alpha Bank S.A., becomes the parent entity of the bank and its subsdiaries (Alpha Bank Group).
On 19.4.2021 the amendment of the Articles of Incorporation of the "Demerged" was approved, by virtue of the decision of the Ministry of Development and Investments number 45898/19.4.2021, and the banking license of the Demerged was revoked, while its corporate name changed to "Alpha Services and Holdings S.A."
As a result of the above it is noted that in the notes to the Financial Statements "Alpha Bank" (the "Demerged") and "Alpha Services and Holdings S.A." will be mentioned as "the Company", while "Alpha Bank S.A." after the demerger will be mentioned as "the Bank".
The Company's business scope is:
a. the direct and indirect participation in domestic and/or foreign companies and undertakings that already exist or will be established, of any form and objective whatsoever,
b. the design, promotion and distribution of insurance products in the name and on behalf of one or more insurance undertakings in the capacity of insurance agent in accordance with the applicable legislation,
c. the provision of supporting accounting and tax services to affiliated companies and third parties as well as the elaboration of studies on strategic and financial management and
d. the issuance of securities for raising regulatory capital, which are expected to have the form of debit/credit titles. 100% of rights of the Financial Stability Fund was retained after the completion of the Demerger.
The corporate name and distinctive title of the Company were established as "Alpha Services and Holdings S.A." and "Alpha Services and Holdings" respectively. The Company has its registered office at 40 Stadiou Street, Athens and is listed in the General Commercial Register with registration number 223701000 (ex societe anonym registration number 6066/06/B/86/05). Its duration has been set until 2100 and can be extended following a decision of the General Assembly.

There has been no change in the composition of the Executive Committee from 30.9.2023 and until the publication date of the consolidated financial statements.
The share of the company "Alpha Services and Holdings Societe Anonyme" (Ex "Alpha Bank S.A.) is listed in the Athens Stock Exchange since 1925 and is constantly included among the companies with the higher market capitalization. Additionally, the Company's share is included in a series of international indices, such as the MSCI Emerging Markets, MSCI Greece, FTSE All World and FTSE4 Good Emerging Index.
Apart from the Greek listing, the share of the Company is traded over the counter in New York (ADRs).
Total ordinary shares in issue as at 30 September 2023 were 2,348,908,567 ordinary, registered, voting, dematerialized shares with a face value of each equal to € 0.29, of which 211,138,299 shares are held by the Hellenic Financial Stability Funds ("HFSF") (9% of share capital).
During the first nine months of 2023, the average daily volume of shares exchanged per session was € 11,240.
The present consolidated financial statements have been approved by the board of directors on 2nd November 2023.
The Group has prepared the condensed interim consolidated financial statements for the current period ended on 30.9.2023 in accordance with International Accounting Standard (IAS) 34, Interim Financial Reporting, as it has been adopted by the European Union. Interim consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the annual financial statements of the Group for the year ended 31.12.2022.
The accounting policies applied by the Group in preparing the condensed interim consolidated financial statements are the same as those stated in the published consolidated financial statements for the year ended on 31.12.2022, taking also into account:
a. IFRS 17 and the amendments to standards which were issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (IASB), adopted by the European Union and applied on 1.1.2023, for which further analysis is provided in note 1.1.2. and b. the change in presentation of the Income Statement in which the following lines were added:
The above change constitutes, under IAS 8, an accounting policy change and leads to the restatement of the comparative period. In note 34, the restatement in question is presented, while the previous way of presenting the above results is also visible.
It is noted that within the third quarter the Group applied interest rate risk hedge accounting on a deposit portfolio using the hedge accounting provisions adopted by the European Union (EU Carve-out) (note 19).
The financial statements have been prepared on the historical cost basis. However, some assets and liabilities are measured at fair value. Those assets are the following:
The consolidated interim financial statements are presented in Euro, rounded to the nearest thousand, unless otherwise stated.
The interim consolidated financial statements as at 30.9.2023 have been prepared based on the going concern basis. For the assessment of going concern assumption, the Board of Directors considered current economic developments and made estimates for the shaping, in the near future, of the economic environment in which it operates. In this context, the Board of Directors assessed the following areas which are considered important:
The growth momentum during the first half of 2023 reflects the resilience of the Greek economy in the face of adverse external developments, following the war in Ukraine, the energy crisis and inflationary pressures. According to the latest data from ELSTAT (September 2023) the real GDP in the first half of 2023 increased by 2.4% on an annual basis, at a rate three times that of the Eurozone (0.8%) and one of the highest among the countries of the European Union (EU-27). Economic growth

came primarily from private consumption, which rose 2.8% in the first half of the year, contributing 2 percentage points to the annual GDP growth rate.
Investments registered an annual increase of 8.1% in the first half of 2023, maintaining their momentum and contributing to the change in GDP by 1.1 percentage points (pp). Regarding the analysis of investments by category, investments in housing and transport equipment increased at a strong rate, by 47.5% and 28.9% respectively, while investments in other non-residential constructions by 12.7% and other investments by 5.5%. Also, the contribution of net exports was marginally positive (0.1 p.p.), with the annual increase in exports (3.5%) exceeding the increase in imports (2.8%). Specifically, exports of goods increased more strongly (4.4%) than the corresponding imports (0.8%), while exports of services increased milder (3.7%) than imports (8.8%). Also, public consumption had a marginally positive contribution of 0.1 percentage points, which increased by 0.4% on an annual basis in the first half of the year, while on the contrary, inventories had a negative contribution (-0.9 p.p. incl. statistical differences).
The Harmonized Index of Consumer Prices (HICP) increased by an average of 9.3% in 2022, primarily due to rising global energy prices - given that Greece is a net energy importer - supply chain disruptions and shortages in raw materials. In the first nine months of 2023, the growth rate of the index has slowed down, gradually to 2.4% in September from 7.3% in January, while it is expected to formed, on average, to 4.2% according to the European Commission (European Economic Forecast , Spring, May 2023), to 4% according to the Ministry of Finance (Draft State Budget 2024, October 2023) and to 4.3% based on the most recent estimates of the Bank of Greece (Monetary Policy, June 2023) in the whole year. However, it is worth noting that the main categories of goods, the prices of which continue to rise and keep inflation in positive territory, are those of food and services.
GDP growth is also expected to slow in 2023 compared to 2022 due to the adverse effects of inflationary pressures on the purchasing power of European citizens and thus on private consumption and exports of services. The implementation of investments under the Recovery and Resilience Fund (Euro 7 billion) and the Public Investment Program (Euro 8.3 billion) and the strong rise in Foreign Direct Investment (FDI), however, are estimated to maintain the rate of change of GDP in positive territory, in 2023. The International Monetary Fund (World Economic Outlook, October 2023), the European Commission (European Economic Forecast, Spring, May 2023) and the Organization for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD Economic Outlook, June 2023) predict GDP growth of 2.5%, 2.4% and 2.2% for 2023, while the Ministry of Finance (Draft State Budget 2024, October 2023) of 2.3% respectively. As for 2024, the same organizations predict positive economic growth rates between 1.9% and 3%, with the Ministry of Finance predicting a GDP increase of 3%.
-Geopolitical developments and inflationary pressures: The continuation and outcome of the war in Ukraine can undoubtedly affect the European economies, since the conflict in the territories of the European continent, as well as the energy dependence on Russia led to a sharp increase in energy prices in last year. It is noted, however, that concerns about Europe's energy sufficiency have eased. Both the high filling rate of natural gas storage tanks in Europe and the initiatives taken at European level to reduce natural gas consumption have contributed to this. The recent outbreak of war in the Middle East further increases uncertainty, while a possible escalation of the conflict involving countries with a significant role in the oil market (e.g. Iran) could trigger a new energy crisis and consequently inflationary pressures, burdening both the Greek and the European economy. -The slowdown or even the recession of the European economy could adversely affect domestic economic activity, given that 54% of Greek exports are directed to the European Union, while 60%-70% of tourist arrivals come from it. It is noted that according to the recent forecasts of the European Commission (European Economic Forecast, Summer, September 2023) the GDP in the European Union (EU-27) is expected to increase by 0.8% in 2023 and by 1.4% in 2024, versus previous forecasts for an increase of 1% and 1.7%, respectively.
-Furthermore, risks for the Greek economy arise due to the extreme weather phenomena that affected various regions of the country this summer, and especially the catastrophic floods in the region of Thessaly. In the short term, upward pressure is likely to be exerted on food prices, while, in the medium term, there may be a worsening of the trade balance due to both a reduction in exports of goods and the replenishment, through imports of goods, of lost agricultural and livestock production that was destined for domestic consumption. In addition, the reduction of capital used in the production process (buildings, machinery, land) is, in the long run, the most important challenge, as it adversely affects the productive capacity of the economy and,
consequently, the potential output. The negative effects are expected to be mitigated, to some extent, by measures taken at domestic and European level. Specifically, a supplementary budget of Euro 600 million was submitted to cover the first compensations. In addition, according to statements by the president of the European Commission, Greece can mobilize up to Euro 2.25 billion of unused European funds to carry out infrastructure projects, while a request to draw up to Euro 400 million in 2024 from the Solidarity Fund will be evaluated.
-The sharp increase in interest rates in the last year and consequently the cost of borrowing for households and businesses, which could delay the implementation of investment plans. Additionally, the increased cost of borrowing, combined with the effects of the energy crisis, following the phasing out of fiscal support measures for businesses and households, could create a new generation of Non-Performing Loans (NPLs), as the Report states Monetary Policy of the Bank of Greece (June 2023). -In addition, there are risks arising from the speed of absorption of the funds of the Recovery and Resilience fund and the implementation of the program, as well as possible delays in the implementation of reforms.
In conclusion, despite the volatile economic environment, as defined among others by geopolitical uncertainty, the maintenance of inflationary pressures and the sharp increase in interest rates by the main central banks, the Greek economy is expected to remain resilient, achieving in the two years 2023-24 higher GDP growth rates above European averages, supported by private consumption and rising investments.
Regarding the liquidity levels of the Group, it is noted that the unrestricted ability of the Bank to draw liquidity from the Eurosystem Mechanisms and from money markets (with or without collateral) is continued. The Board of Directors of the European Central Bank decided on a series of increases in its intervention interest rates, from the second half of 2022 onwards, in order to ensure a timely return of inflation to the medium-term target of 2%. As a result on 30.9.2023 the interbank interest rate of commercial bank deposits in the Central Bank of the Eurozone (deposit facility rate) has been formed at 4%. Additionally in October 2022 it decided to modify the terms of TLTRO III, with the aim of being compatible with the wider monetary policy normalization process. The Bank made use of the TLTRO III program of the European Central Bank and ensured long-term liquidity. In February and March 2023, in the context of optimizing the Group's liquidity management and having sufficient reserves, the Bank decided to prepay the amount of Euro 4 billion of the TLTRO-III program of the European Central Bank, following the relevant modification of its terms. In June 2023, an additional amount of Euro 4 billion was repaid at maturity of the program in question. Therefore, the total funding from the European Central Bank on 30.9.2023 amounts to € 5 billion (note 18). On 8.9.2023, the credit rating agency DBRS upgraded the credit rating of Greece to the BBBL level, which makes the Greek government bonds automatically acceptable, without the need for a waiver, as collateral for liquidity-absorbing operations by the European Central Bank. The Bank, continuing to implement the strategy of achieving the MREL targets in a sustainable manner, while improving its financial profile and diversifying its funding sources, issued in June 2023 a six-year senior preferred bond of Euro 500 million. Liquidity of Euro 400 million was also drawn from the issue of Additional Tier 1 bond in February 2023, as mentioned below in the capital adequacy section. In addition, within 2023 the total deposits increased by Euro 1.6 billion. As a result of the above, the liquidity ratios (liquidity coverage ratio and net stable funding ratio) exceed the supervisory limits that have been set. Moreover, considering the conditions that form the current economic environment, stress test exercises are carried out regularly (at least monthly) for liquidity purposes, in order to assess possible outflows (contractual or potential). The Group completes successfully the liquidity short term stress scenarios (idiosyncratic, systemic and combined), retaining a high liquidity buffer. As a result, based on the Group's plan as well as on internal stress tests the Group's liquidity is sufficient.
On 30.9.2023, the Common Equity Tier I of the Group stands at 13.8%, while the Total Capital Adequacy Ratio at 18.1% (as further described in note 29), significantly increased and well above capital requirements, mainly due to the strong profitability of the nine-month period and the successful completion into the first nine months of 2023 of the scheduled transactions according to the Business Plan. Alpha Services and Holdings, in order to strengthen its capital, issued, on 8.2.2023, a perpetual Additional Tier I bond amounting to € 400 million. Taking into consideration the results of internal capital adequacy assessment process (ICAAP), the fact that Alpha Services and Holdings successfully concluded the EU-wide 2023 Stress Test as well as the actions that aim in the creation of internal capital through profitability, it is estimated that for the next 12 months the Total Capital Adequacy Ratio and the MREL ratio will remain higher than the required minimum levels.
According to the updated Strategic Plan for the period 2023-2025, the Group's Strategy is based on the following 6 pillars that will lead to an increase in the profitability of the Group as a whole:
In the years 2023-2025, the Bank will focus on the following three financial priorities:
Based on the above and taking into account:
the Board of Directors estimates that, at least for the next 12 months from the date of approval of the financial statements, the conditions for the application of the going concern principle for the preparation of its consolidated financial statements are met.
The following are the new standards and the amendments to standards applied from 1.1.2023:
‣ International Financial Reporting Standard 17 "Insurance Contracts" and Amendment to International Financial Reporting Standard 17 "Insurance Contracts" (Regulation 2021/2036/19.11.2021).
On 18.5.2017 the International Accounting Standards Board issued IFRS 17 which replaces IFRS 4 "Insurance Contracts". In contrast to IFRS 4, the new standard introduces a consistent methodology for the measurement of insurance contracts. The key principles in IFRS 17 are the following:
An entity:
On 25.6.2020 the International Accounting Standards Board issued an amendment to IFRS 17 which aimed to ease implementation of the standard and make it easier for entities to explain their financial performance. Additionally, with the amendment the effective date of the standard was postponed to 1.1.2023.
Finally, it is noted that under the Regulation of the European Union that adopted above standard, an entity may choose not to apply paragraph 22 of the standard, in accordance with which an entity shall not include contracts issued more than one year apart in the same group, to:
(a) groups of insurance contracts with direct participation features and groups of investment contracts with discretionary participation features and with cash flows that affect or are affected by cash flows to policyholders of other contracts; (b) groups of insurance contracts that are managed across generations of contracts and that meet the conditions laid down in Article 77b of Directive 2009/138/EC and have been approved by supervisory authorities for the application of the matching adjustment.
For the application of the new standard, a project was implemented in the subsidiary entity Alpha Life. As part of this project, management has assessed which contracts are in scope of IFRS 17. It was assessed whether the contracts expose the insurance company to significant insurance risk, thus included in scope of IFRS 17 as insurance contracts, whereas contracts not bearing significant insurance risk were reclassified retrospectively to investment contracts measured in accordance with IFRS9. Key decisions taken with regards to classification and measurement of insurance contracts are the following:
• Separating components from an insurance contract
The Group identified that insurance contracts within the standard (unit-linked) include an investment component, the amount of surrender value, that was not separated from the host insurance contract and was not recognized as distinct investment component.
The Group has finalized the assessment of the level of aggregation of insurance contracts within IFRS 17 scope and the process of defining the level of aggregation, as well as the method for establishing the level of profitability of each contract. The same group includes contracts that are issued within a calendar year (annual cohort). The annual cohort of insurance contracts was determined based on the calendar year i.e. 1.1-31.12.
For the measurement of insurance contracts, the variable fee approach was used. More specifically, on initial recognition, the value of a group of insurance contracts issued corresponds to the sum of the following items:
a) fulfillment cash flows that include:
i) future cash flows estimated as at the effective date of the contract that are within the boundary of the insurance contract, ii) an adjustment to reflect the time value of money and the financial risks related to the future cash flows, to the extent that
the financial risks are not included in the estimates of the future cash flows, and
iii) a risk adjustment for non-financial risk.
b) the contractual service margin (unearned profit that will be recognized as insurance contract services are provided in the future).
Since insurance contracts do not offer additional coverage, the contract boundary was determined to be their contractual term.
• Fulfillment cash flows
The cash inflows and outflows taken into consideration in measurement are those that are directly related to the fulfillment of the contract, i.e., premiums, payments to a policyholder, insurance acquisition cash flows, administration costs etc. Since the measurement is performed at the group of contracts level, costs that fall within the scope of IFRS 17, the allocation method of costs based on their nature, and the parameters and assumptions incorporated into the actuarial models were determined.
The discount rate applied to the estimates of the future cash flows is the risk-free yield curve as determined by ΕΙΟPA.
• Risk adjustment for non-financial risk
Risks covered are insurance risk and other non-financial risks such as risk of early termination due to non-payment and expenses risk. The cost of capital method was used to derive the risk adjustment for non-financial risk. In addition, the Group has elected not to disaggregate the change in the risk adjustment for non-financial risk, i.e., include the entire change as part of the insurance service result.
The contractual service margin is determined on initial recognition of a group of insurance contracts at an amount that, at that date, is equal with an opposite sign to the estimated future cash flows. Subsequently, the amount of contractual service margin is adjusted for changes in the Group's share of the fair value of assets, the effect of any new contracts, changes in the fulfilment cash flows and in the amount recognized as insurance revenue for services provided during the period. The carrying amount of a group of insurance contracts at the end of each reporting period shall be the sum of:
In this context the coverage units were determined in order for the carrying amount of the Contractual Service Margin at the end of the reporting period to be equally allocated to each coverage unit provided in the period and expected to be provided in the future. The methodology for the determination of coverage units has been determined by considering for each contract the

quantity of the benefits provided and the expected coverage duration, and in particular by taking into consideration the fund value.
The impact from the application of IFRS 17 on the financial statements of the Group is presented in note 34.
‣ Amendment to International Financial reporting Standard 17: "Insurance Contracts": Initial Application of IFRS 17 and IFRS 9 – Comparative information (Regulation 2022/1491/8.9.2022).
On 9.12.2021 the International Accounting Standards Board issued an amendment to IFRS 17 according to which entities are permitted on initial application of IFRS 17 to classify financial assets in the comparative period in a way that aligns with how the entity would classify them on IFRS 9 transition. The amendment specifies how this option is applied depending on whether the entity applies IFRS 9 for the first time at the same time as IFRS 17 or whether it has already applied it in a previous period. The adoption of the above amendment had no impact on the financial statements of the Group.
‣ Amendment to the International Accounting Standard 1 "Presentation of Financial Statements": Disclosure of accounting policies (Regulation 2022/357/2.3.2022).
On 12.2.2021 the International Accounting Standards Board issued an amendment to IAS 1 with which it clarified that:

Further analysis regarding the above standards that were issued before the publication date of the annual financial statements of 31.12.2022 is provided in note 1.1.2 of the annual financial statements as at 31.12.2022.
The Group, in the context of applying accounting policies, makes judgments and assessments which have a significant impact on the amounts recognized in the financial statements. Those judgements relate to the following:
The Group, on the initial recognition of a debt financial asset, exercises judgment in order to determine the business model in which it would be classified, taking into account the way of evaluating its performance, the risks associated with it as well as the expected frequency and value of sales. Also, on a quarterly basis, it exercises judgment in order to reassess the business models, taking into account the sales that have been made as well as any changes in the management operating model of the assets. Based on this assessment, it decides whether it should define new business models or in rare circumstances proceed with the reclassification of financial assets to another business model.
The Group, at initial recognition of a debt financial asset, assesses whether cash flows are solely payments of principal and interest on the principal amount outstanding. The assessment requires judgement mainly on:
The application of different judgments could affect the amount of financial assets measured at fair value through profit or loss.
The Group, in the context of the application of its accounting policies for the measurement of the expected credit losses makes judgments in order to identify:
the selection and development of appropriate models used to calculate the exposure at default (EAD) by financial instrument category, the probability of default (PD), the estimated expected credit loss at the time of default (LGD) as well as the selection of appropriate parameters and economic forecasts used in them,
the selection of appropriate macroeconomic parameters affecting the expected credit risk loss,

Applying different judgments could significantly affect the financial instruments classified in stage 2 and/ or significantly differentiate expected credit loss calculations.
The recognition of assets and liabilities for current and deferred tax is affected, inter alia, by the interpretation of the applicable tax legislation, the practical implementation of the relevant legislation and the settlement of disputes that might exist with tax authorities. When assessing the tax treatment of all significant transactions, the Group takes into account and evaluates all available data (Circulars of the Ministry of Finance, case law, administrative practices, etc.) and / or opinions received from internal and external legal advisers. Future tax audits and changes in tax legislation may result in the adjustment of the amount of assets and liabilities for current and deferred tax and in tax payments other than those recognized in the financial statements of the Group.
The Group classifies non-current assets or disposal groups that are expected to be recovered principally through a sale transaction, along with the related liabilities, as held-for-sale when the asset is available for immediate sale in its present condition and its sale is highly probable to be completed within one year. The assessment of whether the above criteria are met requires judgment mainly as to whether the sale is likely to be completed within one year from the classification of the non-current assets or disposal group as held for sale. In the context of this assessment in which any previous experience from corresponding transactions is also considered, the Group takes into account elements such as any requirement for approvals (both regulatory and those given by the General Meeting and the Committees of the Group), the existence of offers (binding or not) and the status of the signed agreements with investors as well as of any conditions included in them. In addition, current economic conditions are taken into account which may affect the time of completion of sales transactions. In the event that the sale is not completed within one year from the classification of the non-current assets or disposal group as held for sale, judgment is exercised in order to assess whether the cause of the delay is outside the Group's control as well as whether the Group continues to be committed to the program for their disposal and the sale is considered likely to occur.
The Group in the context of its actions for liquidity and its strategies for management of loans proceeds with the securitization of assets through the establishment of special purpose entities whose activities are guided by contractual agreements. The Group makes judgments in order to assess whether it controls those companies taking into account the possibility to make decisions on their relative activities as well as the degree of its exposure to the variability of their returns.
Key sources of estimation uncertainty used by the Group in the context of applying its accounting principles and relating to the carrying amount of assets and liabilities at the end of the reporting period are presented below. Final amounts in the next periods may be significantly different from those recognised in these financial statements.
For assets and liabilities traded in active markets, the determination of their fair value is based on quoted, market prices. In all other cases the determination of fair value is based on valuation techniques that use observable market data to the greatest extent possible. In cases where there is no observable market data, the fair value is determined using data that are based on internal estimates and assumptions i.e. determination of expected cash flows, discount rates, prepayment probabilities or counterparty default. Fair value measurement of receivables arising from sale transactions is based on significant unobservable

inputs such as the expected cash flows from the management of the underlying receivables portfolio and the business plan of the companies sold.
The measurement of expected credit losses requires the use of complex models and significant estimates of future economic conditions and credit behavior, taking into account the events that have occurred until reporting date. The significant estimates relate to:
The Group, at each reporting date, assesses for impairment right-of-use assets, goodwill and other intangible assets, as well as its investments in associates and joint ventures and at least on an annual basis property, plant and equipment and investment property. Management estimates the recoverable amount of the assets, i.e. the higher between the fair value less costs to sell and value in use by performing an impairment exercise, which includes inputs and assumptions that are inherently uncertain. In cases where the sale of such items is imminent, the fair value derives from the estimated price of the transaction considering any other element that could impact the recoverable amount upon the completion of the transaction
Defined benefit obligations are estimated based on actuarial valuations, which are mainly conducted on an annual basis, that incorporate assumptions regarding discount rates, future changes in salaries and pensions, as well as the return on any plan assets. Any change in these assumptions will affect the amount of obligations recognized.
The amounts recognized by the Group in its financial statements as provisions are derived from the best estimate of the possible outflow required to settle the present obligation. This estimate is determined by Management after taking into account factors such as experience from relevant transactions, the degree of complexity of each case, the actions taken to settle it as well as expert reports when considered necessary. In case the amount recognized as a provision is affected by a variety of factors, its calculation is based on the weighting of all possible results. At each reporting date, provisions are revised to reflect current best estimates of the obligation.
The Group recognizes deferred tax assets to the extent that it is probable that it will have sufficient future taxable profit available, against which, deductible temporary differences and tax losses carried forward can be utilized.
The information stated in note 1.3 of annual financial statements of 31.12.2022 regarding the main categories of deferred tax assets recognized in the financial statements also applies as at 30.09.2023. Regarding the methodology applied for the recoverability assessment, what is stated in the aforementioned note of the annual financial statements is also applicable, taking also into consideration the elements that formed the result of the current period. In addition, it is noted that in the case of imminent transactions with third parties with a significant degree of complexity, the data included in the deferred tax assets recoverability exercise represent the best possible estimates of the Group, taking also into account the degree of implementation of each transaction. As the terms of the upcoming transactions become more specific, data are adjusted accordingly.
The estimates and judgments applied by the Group in making decisions and in preparing the financial statements are based on historical information and assumptions which at present are considered appropriate. The estimates and judgments are reviewed at each reporting period in order to take into account current conditions, and the effect of any changes is recognized in the period in which the estimates are revised.

Net interest income of the period increased compared to the corresponding period of 2022 mainly due to interest rates increase that has affected mainly the asset side of our balance sheet and specifically the loan and bond portfolios as well as the interest due from banks. Also, the repayments of the funding through TLTRO III program made in the first half of 2023 had a positive impact on the net interest income. The abovementioned increase was partially offset with the increased cost of funding due to changes in ECB rates, new bond issuances that took place in the fourth quarter of 2022 and second quarter of 2023, as well as the gradual increase in term deposit interest rates.

Net fee and commission income during the nine-month period of 2023 has been affected by the decrease of commissions from loans, related mainly to arrangement fees for bond and syndicated loans, as well as the sale of merchant acquiring business of the Bank that took place on 30.6.2022. The above decrease was partially offset by increased fees from transactions and letter of guarantees.

Taking into account the developments regarding the sale transactions of NPE portfolios which are included in the Business plan for the management of non-performing exposures (NPE Business Plan), as described in note 31 "Assets Held for Sale", the calculation of expected credit losses incorporates a sale scenario with 100% probability, for the following portfolios:
In the current period an additional charge of € 51,5 mn. was recognised for the above mentioned portfolios. Additionally, a portfolio of retail unsecured loans ("Cell" transaction) was transferred to Assets Held for Sale in the third
quarter. The transaction was completed in October 2023.
More information about all the above transactions is provided in Note 31.
"Losses from modifications of contractual terms of loans and advances to customers" were affected by the cost of the initiative that the Bank announced on 11.4.2023 that from 2.5.2023 and for a period of 12 months will reward performing mortgage loan customers with floating-rate mortgage loans (as well as with floating consumer loans collateralized with a mortgage) by introducing a cap to the base rate, in order to protect borrowers against future increases in reference rates.
The introduction of the cap triggered a modification loss recognition of € 9 mn arising from those loans for which the cap was effective from 2.5.2023; the amount of modification loss will be amortised in interest income within a period of 12 months. The respective amount for Alpha Bank Cyprus and ACAC under the Reward Program for Performing Housing Loan Borrowers effective from August, is € 3 mn.
* Certain figures of the previous period have been restated as described in note 34.

In June 2023 the Bank proceeded to a new synthetic securitization transaction of wholesale loans named Compass for which expenses of € 7.7 mn. in the nine-month period were recognised in the financial line "Commission expenses for credit protection". Reduction of impairment losses on debt and other securities are mainly due to improved credit ratings published in the third quarter of 2023.

The completion of project Sky was finalized in June of 2023, by which the Parent company, Alpha International Holdings, transferred the shares of its affiliate Sky CAC Ltd, to investors. In Sky CAC Ltd, prior to the sale, loans and real estate assets were transferred from other Cypriot companies of the Group. Upon the completion of the transaction a tax loss of € 65 mn. was recognised in the company books. The company did not calculate deferred tax asset of € 14 mn., due to the above tax loss because there are not enough tax profits expected in the future. The above mentioned amount of deffered tax asset, is presented in the line "non-recognition of deferred tax for tax losses carried forward" in the table above.
The nominal tax rate is the average tax rate resulting from the income tax, based on the nominal tax rate, and the pre-tax results, for the parent and for each of the Group's subsidiaries.

In the context of Stock Options Plan through which stock options rights were granted to management and personnel of the Company and the Group, in January 2023, 700,783 options rights vested and exercised from the beneficiaries, in accordance with Performance Incentive Program for the years of 2018, 2019 and 2020. As a result of the above, 700,783 ordinary, registered, voting shares with nominal value of € 0.29 were issued in January, the Share Capital of the Company increased by € 203 and the share premium by € 507.
Diluted earnings/(losses) per share are calculated by adjusting the weighted average number of ordinary shares outstanding during the period with the dilutive potential ordinary shares. The Company holds shares of this category, arising from a plan of awarding stock option rights to employees of the Company and other Group entities.
For the calculation of the diluted earnings per share, it is assumed that the option rights are exercised and that the related hypothetical inflows derive from the issuance of ordinary shares at the average market price of the year during which the options were outstanding. The difference between the number of options to be granted and the ordinary shares issued at the average market price for ordinary shares, is treated as issuance of ordinary shares without exchange.

In December 2022, the European Council adopted the EU Directive 2022/2523 for a global minimum tax that is expected to be used by individual jurisdictions. The goal of the framework is to reduce the shifting of profit from one jurisdiction to another, in order to reduce global tax obligations in corporate structures. In March 2022, the OECD released detailed technical guidance on Pillar Two of the rules. As at the date of approval of the interim financial statements, none of the jurisdictions where the Group operates have enacted legislation to incorporate these tax changes into domestic law. Therefore, the Group is unable to determine the potential effect of any future changes to legislation. Alpha Services and Holdings is nonetheless taking every necessary action to assess the potential impact of those rules on the Group.
The Group, as part of its normal course of business, enters into contractual commitments, that in the future may result in changes in its asset structure. These commitments are monitored in off balance sheet accounts and relate to letters of credit, letters of guarantee and liabilities from undrawn loan commitments as well as guarantees given for bonds issued and other guarantees to subsidiary companies.
Letters of credit are used to facilitate trading activities and relate to the financing of contractual agreements for the transfer of goods locally or abroad, through direct payment to the third party on behalf of the Group's customers. Letters of credit, as well as letters of guarantee, are commitments under specific terms and are issued by the Group for the purpose of ensuring that its customers will fulfill the terms of their contractual obligations.
In addition, contingent liabilities for the Group arise from undrawn loan commitments that can be utilized only if certain requirements are fulfilled by counterparties.
| 30.9.2023 | 31.12.2022 | |
|---|---|---|
| Letters of credit | 39,254 | 45,960 |
| Letters of guarantee and other guarantees | 5,028,793 | 4,605,197 |
| Undrawn loan commitments | 4,886,404 |
The Group measures the expected credit losses for all the undrawn loan commitments and letters of credit/letters of guarantee, which are included in the caption of Balance Sheet "Provisions". Expected credit losses of the aforementioned exposures as of 30.09.2023 amounts to € 40,172 (31.12.2022: € 40,783).
Alpha Bank S.A. has also committed to contribute to the share capital of the joint venture Alpha TANEO AKES up to the amount of € 65 (31.12.2022: € 19).

In the fourth quarter of 2022, the Executive Committee, which is the ultimate decision maker on the basis of which segment performance is targeted, monitored, and assessed, decided to proceed to the change of the operating segments, through which it manages the Group's activities, in order to be consistent with the organizational and operational changes that resulted from the implementation of the Transformation Program. The allocation of activities to the new operating segments reflects a customer-centric approach with emphasis on client's asset management operations, the operation of the International Business Network and the management of Non-Performing Assets based on a separate segment.

The above table set out the fair values and carrying amounts of those financial assets that are not measured at fair value.
The fair value of loans and advances to customers measured at amortised cost is estimated using a model for discounting the contractual future cash flows until maturity. The components of the discount rate are the interbank market yield curve, the liquidity premium, the operational cost, the capital requirement, and the expected loss rate.
For the loans that for credit risk purposes are classified as impaired and are individually assessed for impairment, the model uses the expected future cash flows excluding expected credit losses. For the fair valuation of the impaired loans which are collectively assessed for impairment, estimates are made for principal repayment after considering the allowance for expected credit losses. The discount rate of impaired loans is constituted of the interbank market yield curve, the liquidity premium, the operational cost, and the capital requirement.
The fair value of debt securities classified as Loans and advances to customers and measured at amortized cost, is being calculated through the use of a model for discounting the contractual future cash flows considering their credit risk.
The fair value of investment and debt securities is calculated on the basis of market prices, where there is an active market. In other cases, the discounted cash flow method is applied, where all substantial variables are based either on observable data or on a combination of observable and unobservable market data.
The fair value of deposits is estimated based on the interbank market yield curve the operational cost and the liquidity premium until their maturity.
The fair value of liabilities from insurance contracts measured under IFRS 9, which is included in "Due to customers", is calculated using the Market Consistent Embedded Value (MCEV).
The fair value of the remaining financial assets and liabilities which are measured at amortised cost does not differ materially from their respective carrying amount.

The above tables present the fair value hierarchy of financial instruments measured at fair value per fair value hierarchy level based on the significance of the data used for its determination. The valuation methodology of debt securities is approved by the Asset Liability Committee.
Level 1 includes securities which are traded in an active market and exchange-traded derivatives.
Level 2 includes securities whose fair value is calculated based on non-binding market prices provided by dealers-brokers or securities whose fair value is estimated based the income approach methodology with the use of interest rates and credit spreads which are observable in the market.
Level 3 includes securities the fair value of which is estimated using significant unobservable inputs
The fair value calculation methodology has not been amended as consequence of the Russia Ukraine war. It is noted that specifically for securities whose fair value is calculated based on market prices, bid prices are used and daily checks are performed with regards to their change in fair value.
The fair value of loans measured at fair value through profit or loss, is estimated based on the valuation methodology as described above in the disclosure of fair value for loans measured at amortized cost. Given that the data used for the calculation of fair value are non-observable, loans are classified at Level 3.
Shares which are traded in active market are included in Level 1. Shares, the fair value of which is computational, are classified to Level 2 or Level 3, depending on the extent of the contribution of unobservable data in the calculation of the fair value. The fair value of non-listed shares, as well as shares not traded in an active market is determined either based on the Group's share on the issuer's equity or by the multiples valuation method or the estimations made by the Group regarding the future profitability of the issuer considering the expected growth rate of its operations, as well as the weighted average rate of capital return which is used as discount rate.
Income methodologies are used for the valuation of over-the-counter derivatives: discounted cash flow models, option calculation models, or other widely accepted economic valuation models.
The valuation methodology of the over-the-counter derivatives is approved by the Assets Liabilities Committee. Mid prices are considered as both long and short positions may be open. Valuations are checked on a daily basis with the respective prices of counterparty banks or central clearing houses in the context of the daily process of provision of collaterals and settlement of derivatives. If the non-observable inputs used for the determination of fair value are significant, then the above financial assets are classified as Level 3 or otherwise as Level 2.
In addition, the Group calculates the credit valuation adjustment (CVA) in order to consider, the counterparty credit risk for the OTC derivatives. In particular, taking into consideration its own credit risk, the Group calculates the bilateral credit valuation adjustment (Bilateral CVA/BCVA) for the OTC derivatives held on a counterparty level according to netting and collateral agreements in force. BCVA is calculated across all counterparties with a material effect on the respective derivative fair values taking into consideration the default probability of both the counterparty and Group, the impact of the first time of default, the expected OTC derivative exposure, the loss given default of the counterparty and of Group and the specific characteristics of netting and collateral agreements in force.
Collaterals and derivatives exposure per counterparty simulate throughout the life of respective financial assets. Calculations performed depend largely on observable market data. Market quoted counterparty and Bank's CDS spreads are used in order to derive the respective probability of default, a market standard recovery rate is assumed for developed market counterparties, correlations between market data are considered and subsequently a series of simulations is performed to model the portfolio exposure over the life of the related instruments. In the absence of observable market data, the counterparty probability of default and loss given default are determined using the Group's internal models for credit rating and collateral valuation. BCVA model is validated from an independent division of the Group according to best practices.
A breakdown of BCVA across counterparty sectors and credit quality (as defined for presentation purposes of the table " Loans by credit quality and IFRS 9 Stage") is given below:

Advances to customers measured at fair value through profit or loss measured at fair value through profit or loss includes earn out and contingent considerations for which the methodology followed is described below.
In relation to the valuation of the earn-out consideration (from the buyer to the Bank in the context of the disposal of the 80% of the equity shares of the former subsidiary) which is related to the estimated earnings before depreciation, tax, and interest (EBITDA) of Cepal Holdings for the next six years, the base scenario of the company's business plan was taken into consideration.
Based on this scenario (which is in line with the valuation of 20% of the Bank's investment in the company), the valuation of the earn-out consideration is zero.
In the context of the sale of Alpha Payment Services S.M.S.A. to Nexi S.p.A., the Bank reserves the right to repurchase in the fourth year after the completion of the transaction part of the shares that will correspond to a participation between 24% and 39% in the company for a fixed strike price.
According to the estimated figures of the company, the value of this option as of 30.9.2023 is zero.
The contingent consideration related to the sale of NPE portfolios is based on the estimated net recoveries of the underlying portfolio's under the base scenario of the Business Plan as agreed between the parties. The expected earn-out consideration, based on the above base case assumptions, have been further discounted to their present value based on their projected payment period.

The Group reassesses the fair value hierarchy on an instrument-by-instrument basis at each reporting period and proceeds with the transfer of financial instruments, when required, based on the data at the end of each reporting period.
Within the current reporting period bonds of a total amount of € 56,362 have been transferred from Level 2 to Level 1 due to the bid-ask spread being inside the limit range set for a market to be classified as active. In addition, bonds of a total amount of € 3,499 have been transferred from Level 1 to Level 2 due to the bid-ask spread being outside the limit range set for a market to be classified as active.
Within the previous reporting period bonds of a total amount of € 64,804 have been transferred from Level 1 to Level 2 due to the bid-ask spread being outside the limit range set in order for a market to be classified as active.

For credit risk disclosure purposes, the allowance for expected credit losses of loans measured at amortised cost also includes the fair value adjustment for the contractual balance of loans which were impaired at their acquisition or origination (POCI) since the Group, from credit risk perspective, monitors the respective adjustment as part of the allowance. These loans were recognized either in the context of acquisition of specific loans or companies (i.e., Emporiki Bank and Citibank's retail operations in Greece), or as a result of significant modification of the terms of the previous loan resulted to derecognition. Relevant adjustment has also been made at the carrying amount of loans before allowance for expected credit losses.
It is noted that the credit risk tables do not include the outstanding balances and allowance for expected credit losses of loans that have been classified as assets held for sale.

The total amount recognized by the Group to cover the credit risk arising from contracts with customers amounts to € 1,123,227 as of 30.9.2023 (31.12.2022: € 1,214,602), taking into account the expected credit risk losses of loans which are measured at amortized cost that amount to € 1,040,498 (31.12.2022: € 1,133,019), the expected credit risk losses of letters of guarantee, credit guarantees and undisbursed loan commitments that amount to € 40,172 (31.12.2022: € 40,783) and expected credit risk losses for receivables from customers that amount to € 42,557 (31.12.2022: € 40,800).
The Group closely monitors the evolving energy crisis and the impact on inflation due to the Russia-Ukraine conflict as well as the rise in interest rates and assesses their impact on its business activity, financial position, and profitability. As the crisis evolves and the facts change, the Group may proceed to appropriate adjustments to its strategy, business plan and financing plan on a case-by-case basis if this is deemed necessary.
In the context of inflationary pressures and the increase in borrowing costs for households and businesses, as well as the general uncertainty that exists in the economic environment, the Group included in the ECL allowance on its balance sheet as at 30.9.2023 additional Post Model Adjustment (PMA) provisions for non-performing retail loans allocated to Stage 3 totaling to € 131.5 mn. (31.12.2022: € 168.2mn.).

The Group estimates allowance for expected credit losses based on the weighted probability of three alternative scenarios. More specifically, the Group makes forecasts for the possible evolution of macroeconomic variables that affect the level of allowance for expected credit losses of loan portfolios under a baseline and under two alternative macroeconomic scenarios (an upside and a downside one) and also assesses the cumulative probabilities associated with these scenarios.
The macroeconomic variables affecting the level of expected credit losses are the Gross Domestic product (hereinafter "GDP"), the unemployment rate, inflation, and forward-looking prices of residential and commercial real estates. Especially in Greece, the macroeconomic variables per year for the period 2023-2026, which affect both the estimation of the Probability of Default and the estimation of the Loss Given Default when calculating the expected credit loss as of 30.9.2023 are the following:
| Downside scenario | 2023 | 2024 | 2025 | 2026 |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Real GDP growth (% change) | 1.6% | 0.4% | 0.2% | (0.2)% |

Respectively, the average for the period 2023-2025 of the macroeconomic variables that affect the expected credit risk loss of 31.12.2022, is presented in the following tables:
| 2023 – 2025 | ||||
|---|---|---|---|---|
| CYPRUS | Downside scenario | Baseline scenario | Upside scenario | |
| Real GDP growth (% change) | 0.2% | 5.2% | 2.7% | |
| Unemployment (% change) | 8.1% | 4.2% | 6.1% | |
| RRE prices (% change) | 2.1% | 6.0% | 4.3% | |
| CRE Price Index (% change) | 1.9% | 5.8% | 3.9% |
| 2023 – 2025 | ||||
|---|---|---|---|---|
| ROMANIA | Downside scenario | Baseline scenario | Upside scenario | |
| Real GDP growth (% change) | 2.0% | 3.0% | 3.9% | |
| Unemployment (% change) | 6.4% | 5.9% | 4.9% | |
| Inflation (% change) | 8.7% | 6.7% | 4.9% | |

| CRE Price Index (% change) | 0.4% | 6.7% | 8.7% |
The baseline scenario is supported by a consistent economic description and constitutes the most likely scenario according to the current economic conditions and the Group's basic assessment of the course of the economy. The cumulative probabilities of the macroeconomic scenarios for the Greek economy indicate that the economy performs better or worse than forecasts of the baseline scenario and the alternative scenarios, i.e. the upside and downside scenario. For each one of the alternative scenarios, the allowance for expected credit losses is calculated and weighted against the probability of each scenario in order to calculate the weighted expected credit loss. The cumulative probability for the Bank assigned to the baseline scenario remained 60%, while cumulative probability assigned to the downside and upside scenario remained 20% for each of the scenario. For Cyprus, the cumulative probability assigned to the baseline scenario remained 70% and 15% for downside scenario and upside scenario. For Romania, the cumulative probability assigned remained 50% for baseline scenario, 40% for downside scenario and 10% for upside scenario.
Should the downside scenario be weighted with 100% probability, expected credit losses would have been higher by € 89.3mn. as of 30.9.2023 (31.12.2022: € 87.5 mn.).
In the event of a 100% probability of upside scenario expected credit losses would have been lower as of 30.9.2023 by € 92.3mn. (31.12.2022: € 85.8 mn.).

The following table provides more details around the impact per stage.

| Total | 89.3 | 87.5 | (5.7) | (5.1) | (92.3) | (85.8) |
Furthermore, should the expected life of the revolving credit exposures classified in Stage 2 increase by one year, the Expected Credit Losses are expected to increase by € 4.1 mn. on 30.9.2023 (31.12.2022: € 4.5 mn.)
In the context of the activation of the Early Warning mechanism for the Bank's customers (Businesses/Individuals) operating in areas affected by fires and floods throughout Greece, dedicated instructions were provided in order to assess the potential impact in terms of Credit Risk.
In more detail, the competent Business Units and the Branch Network have communicated with their customers in order to understand:
The competent Credit and Arrears Committees are informed in order to take the appropriate decisions. Especially for borrowers who are not in default status (based on the credit risk classification), the competent Committee should assess the following:
In addition, the following actions are carried out under the responsibility of the Business Units:
Furthermore, the Hellenic Banking Association Board on the 13th of September 2023 decided the following measures to aid the victims in Thessaly:

• Banks are prepared to propose tailor made mid-term solutions for every business, so that they can overcome this difficult situation and continue to offer to the local community and the employment.
This measure is applicable to exposures <90 days past due as of 31.8.2023 and the eligible individuals or businesses should submit their application to the Bank in order to be assessed for the instalment suspension eligibility.
Based on the postal codes announced by the Government, the eligible perimeter is approximately Eur 850mn. In terms of Stage and Forbearance classification the following approach will be applied:
Up to 30.9.2023, no active application exists and therefore no adjustment has been performed in terms of stage and forbearance classification. The impact on ECL allowance is not considered material.

In the expected credit losses in Stage 1 of the period 1.1-30.9.22 an additional income of € 13 has been recognized in the income statement which corresponds to the change of accumulated impairments between the closing and the opening date of the period resulting from the purchases of securities at fair value through other comprehensive income portfolio which were agreed but not settled between these two dates. The said accumulated impairment, depending on the securities valuation, is recognized either in "Other assets" or in "Other liabilities".

The policy of the Group is to maintain strong capital ratios and capital buffers over requirements in order to secure that the business plan will be achieved and to ensure trust of depositors, shareholders, markets, and business partners. Share capital increases are conducted following resolutions of the General Meeting of Shareholders or the Board of Directors, in accordance with articles of incorporation or the relevant laws.
For the period that the Hellenic Financial Stability Fund (HFSF) participates in the Share Capital of the Company, the purchase of treasury shares is not permitted without its consent, based on the relevant provisions of the Relationship Framework Agreement (RFA) signed between the Company and the HFSF.
The Capital Adequacy ratio compares the Group's regulatory capital with the risks that it undertakes (Risk Weighted Assets - RWAs). Regulatory capital includes Common Equity Tier 1 (CET1) capital (share capital, reserves, minority interests), Additional Tier1 capital (hybrid securities) and Tier 2 capital (subordinated debt). RWAs include the credit risk of the investment portfolio (including also counterparty credit risk and CVA risk), the market risk of the trading portfolio and the operational risk. Alpha Bank S.A., as a systemic bank, and therefore its Parent company Alpha Services and Holdings S.A., is supervised by the Single Supervisory Mechanism (SSM) of the European Central Bank (ECB), to which reports are submitted every quarter. The supervision is conducted in accordance with the European Regulation 575/2013 (CRR) as amended, inter alia, by Regulation (EU) 876/2019 (CRR 2) and the relevant European Directive 2013/36 (CRD IV), as incorporated into the Greek Law through the Law 4261/2014 as amended, inter alia, by Directive (EU)2019/878 (CRD V) and incorporated by Law 4799/2021. For the calculation of capital adequacy ratio the above regulatory framework is followed. In addition:
These limits should be met on a consolidated basis.
The following table presents the capital adequacy ratios of the Group:
| 30.9.2023 | 31.12.2022 | |
|---|---|---|
| Common Equity Tier I Ratio | 13.8% | 13.2% |
| Tier I Ratio | 15.0% | 13.2% |
| Total Capital Adequacy Ratio* | 18.1% | 16.2% |
The above capital ratios include period profits post a provision for dividend payout according to the dividend policy. Excluding the provision for dividend at 9M 2023, capital ratios increase by c. 30bps and the Total Capital ratio would stand at 18.4%.
Taking into consideration the 2022 SREP decision, ECB notified Alpha Services and Holdings S.A., that for 2023 it is required to meet the minimum limit for consolidated Overall Capital Requirements (OCR), of at least 14.61% (OCR includes for Q3 2023 the CCB Capital Buffer of 2.5% the O-SII buffer of 1% and the CCyB of 0.11% which mainly derives from the contribution of subsidiaries).
The ΟCR consists of the minimum limit of the total Capital adequacy Ratio (8%), in accordance with art. 92(1) of the CRR, the additional regulatory requirements of Pillar2 (P2R) in accordance with article 16(2) (a) of the Council Regulation EU 1024/2013 (3%), as well as the combined buffers' requirements (e.g. CCB, OSII, CCyB), in accordance with Article 128 (6) of Directive 2013/36/EU. The minimum rate should be kept on an on-going basis, considering the CRR/CRD Transitional Provisions.
* Supervisory disclosures regarding capital adequacy and risk management in accordance with Regulation 575/2013 (Pillar III) will be published on the Bank's website.

On 21 March 2023, Alpha Bank S.A. received a communication letter from the European Single Resolution Board including its decision for the minimum requirements for own funds and eligible liabilities (MREL). The requirements are based on the Recovery and Resolution Directive ("BRRD2"), which was incorporated into the Greek Law 4799/2021 on 18.5.2021. At the same time, by the same decision, the Resolution Authority defined the single point of entry (SPE) resolution strategy. According to the decision, from 1 January 2026 Alpha Bank S.A. is required to meet, on a consolidated basis, minimum MREL of 23.60% of the risk-weighted assets and 5.91% of the Leverage ratio. The letter also sets out the intermediate MREL targets to be met from 1 January 2023, i.e. 19.94% of the risk-weighted assets and 5.91% of the leverage ratio. The final MREL ratio, expressed as a percentage of risk-weighted assets, does not include the Combined Buffer Requirement (CBR). Furthermore, the Resolution Authority has decided that Alpha Bank S.A. is not subject to requirement for subordinated MREL. Minimum requirements for own funds and eligible liabilities (MREL), including the transition compliance period, are in line with the expectations of Alpha Bank S.A..
As of 30 September 2023, Group's MREL ratio stood at 24.43%. The ratio includes the profit of the financial reporting period that ended on 30 September 2023 post a provision for dividend payout. Excluding the provision for dividend, the MREL ratio increases by c. 30 bps and stands at 24.74%. The final targeted MREL ratio is updated annually by the SRB.

The Group has initiated the process for the sale of selected subsidiaries, joint ventures, non-performing loan portfolios, as well as real estate properties and other fixed assets. As a result, certain assets and liabilities have been classified as "Assets Held for Sale" in accordance with IFRS 5.
Non-performing loans continue to be measured in accordance with the provisions of IFRS 9, however, for those loans measured at amortised cost, the estimate of expected credit loss incorporates the sale scenario with 100% probability weight, taking into consideration the interested / preferred investors' prices. Similarly, for loans measured at fair value through profit or loss the determination of fair value is based on investors' prices.
Fair values of other assets classified as Held for sale are measured at each reporting period in accordance with the methods referred to in note 1.2.7 of the Group Annual Financial Statements for 2022, considering offers from the investors for the items included in the perimeter that is expected to be transferred in conjunction with Management decisions for the completion of the transactions. Fair vales in terms of fair value hierarchy are classified as Level 3, since they make use of data from market research, estimates and data which refer to financial assets of similar characteristics and therefore make use of significant non-observable market input.
In September 2021, the Group commenced the process for the sale of a Cypriot portfolio consisting of non-performing loans, investment properties, properties repossessed from auctions and special purposes entities owning properties repossessed from auctions. On 24.12.2021 binding offers were received and on 27.12.2021 the Executive Committee of the Bank approved the commencement of bilateral discussions with the preferred bidder for the finalization of an agreement. On 12.2.2022 the binding sales agreement for the sale of the above portfolio was signed and as at 31.12.2021 the portfolio was classified as a disposal group

held for sale. In April 2023 the parties signed an amended sale agreement based on which long-stop date was extended while the perimeter of the transaction and the amount and the structure of the consideration were amended as well.
On 16.6.2023, the shares of the Group Company Sky CAC Ltd, that held the portfolio, were transferred to an affiliate of Cerberus Capital Management L.P., resulting in the completion of the project. The Group received an upfront consideration of € 348,819 and recognized deferred consideration of € 202,920. As a result, in the first half of 2023 additional losses were recognized of € 5,214 in "Impairment losses on fixed assets and equity investments" in relation to real estate assets, € 45,555 as an additional impairment loss relevant to the loan portfolio and a gain of € 8,245 in "Gains/(losses) from disposal of non-financial assets or disposal groups held for sale".
In addition, loans with net book value of € 30,407 were not included in the above conclusion of the transaction due to their operational and business peculiarities. The parties remain committed to finding a way to transfer the loans to the investor at the earliest possible and thus the assets have remained classified as held for sale.
The above loans portfolio is included in the operating segment "Non – Performing Assets" of note 25 "Segmental Reporting".
In the first half of 2022, the Group commenced the process for the sale of large and SME corporate collateralized loans and advances. On 29.6.2022 the Executive Committee approved the continuation of the sale's process, pursuant to the received offer that is subject to the investor's confirmatory due diligence. Considering the above the Group classified on 30.6.2022, the loan portfolio as "Assets Held for Sale". It is noted that in the first quarter of 2023 the transaction was restructured so that the portfolio is sold to two different investors (tranches A and B) with respective binding offers received.
On 25.5.2023, the Group completed the disposal of tranches A and B, with total net book value of € 225,735. The Group received an upfront payment of € 91,112 less transaction costs and provisions for future claims of € 33,872 and recognized deferred consideration of € 167,221 (of which € 158,093 is conditional earn out based on the performance of the portfolio), resulting to a loss of € 1,274, recognised in "Gains less losses on derecognition of financial assets measured at amortised cost".
A portfolio of loans with net book value as at 30.9.2023 of € 11,710 (Hermes tail) was not part of the above sale transaction due to their operational and business peculiarities. The Group and the investor are examining ways for completing their transfer by the end of 2023. For this reason, they have remained classified as assets held for sale.
The aforementioned loan portfolio is included in "Non-Performing Assets" segment for operating segment disclosure purposes (note 25).
In the first half of 2022, the Group initiated the process for the sale of leasing portfolio. On 29.6.2022 the Executive Committee approved the sale of this portfolio to the preferred investor and as a result the Group classified the loan portfolio as "Assets Held for Sale" on 30.6.2022. The transaction will be completed once the Group proceeds with the corporate transformation of Alpha Leasing which will be structured in a way that takes advantage of the provisions of the newly reformed demerger laws and will be subject to regulatory approvals. Furthermore, there is a lengthy legalization process in order for the properties to be ready to be transferred to the investor, upon the request of the investor. For these reasons, the transaction will take longer to be completed, however the parties remain committed to the sale and an updated binding offer (which is not materially different from the initial offer) has been received from the investor in July 2023. As a result the assets have remained classified as Held for Sale and the transaction is expected to be completed in the second semester of 2024. The net carrying amount of the portfolio as at 30.9.2023 was € 51,574 (31.12.2022: € 59,851).
The aforementioned loan portfolio is included in "Non-Performing Assets" segment for operating segment disclosure purposes (note 25).
In the first half of 2022, the Bank commenced the process for the sale of a portfolio consisting of syndicated secured corporate non-performing loans. The transaction is structured with the participation of all four systemic banks with a joint securitization and notes issuance scheduled. Out of the notes to be issued the banks will retain 100% of the senior notes, 5% of mezzanine and junior subordinated notes and they will proceed through the bidding process, to the sale of 95% of mezzanine and junior subordinated notes. In addition, for the purpose of obtaining a state guarantee through the Hercules II program, an application was submitted in August 2022 and a supplementary application in October 2022. As a result of the above, the Group classified this loan portfolio as "Assets Held for sale" on 30.6.2022. Binding offers were submitted by the investors in December 2022, and in April 2023 a preferred investor was selected following an ExCo decision. On 1.11.2023 the Bank and the investor signed a binding agreement.

The Solar Transaction is subject to customary conditions for such transactions including, among others, the issuance of the Ministerial Decision on the provision of the guarantee under the "Hercules" Hellenic Asset Protection Scheme (HAPS) (Greek Law 4649/2019) regarding the senior notes and the issuance of the supervisory approval with regard to the Significant Risk Transfer (SRT) of the underlying loan portfolio by the Single Supervisory Mechanism (the "SSM").The sale transaction is expected to be completed once the above procedures are concluded. The net carrying amount of the loan portfolio as at 30.9.2023 was € 55,670 (31.12.2022: € 61,690). The aforementioned loan portfolio is included in "Non-Performing Assets" segment for operating segment disclosure purposes (note 25).
In the third quarter of 2023, the Group commenced the process for the sale of mainly unsecured non performing loans. On 25.8.2023 the binding agreement was signed and the transaction was completed in October 2023. Considering the above, as at 30.9.2023 the Group classified the loan portfolio as "Assets Held for sale", with a net carrying amount of € 40,690.
The aforementioned loan portfolio is included in "Non-Performing Assets" segment for operating segment disclosure purposes (note 25).
As at 30.9.2023, the Bank continues to classify a portfolio of loans which are not part of a wider transaction as "Assets Held for sale". The portfolio is consisted of loans with a net carrying amount of € 18,080 (31.12.2022: € 18,080) and relates to loans measured at fair value through profit and loss. The aforementioned loan portfolio is included in "Non-Performing Assets" segment for operating segment disclosure purposes (note 25).
In July 2022, the Group commenced the process for the sale of a portfolio of investment and owned-occupied properties as well as assets classified in "Other Assets". In the context of the Skyline transaction, the Group is expected to transfer to a third investor the shares of the newly established special purpose entity ("Skyline"), to which specific properties or/and specific shareholdings investments of Group subsidiaries will be transferred. These Group subsidiaries have Group properties in their assets. In the third quarter of 2022, the Executive Committee approved the selection of a preferred investor and the commencement of negotiations on the details of the transaction. As a result and taking into consideration that the Group has assessed that the completion of the transaction within the following 12 months will take place, the criteria for classifying the properties and participations as a held for sale disposal group were met within the third quarter of 2022. On 6.2.2023 the Group announced that it entered into a definitive agreement with the consortium comprised of Dimand S.A. and Premia Properties R.E.I.C. for the formation of an equity partnership in real estate investment through the sale of a € 438 mn. real estate portfolio. The definite agreement provides for the acquisition of the real estate portfolio through successive transfers from the Group company Skyline Akinita Single Member, SA ("Skyline") and the acquisition of the majority stake 65% of the Skyline company by Premia Properties R.E.I.C. The exclusive provider of real estate management services will be the subsidiary of the Group, Alpha Astika Akinita S.A. The transaction is expected to be completed within 2023.
The carrying amount of the held for sale disposal group of the Group as of 30.9.2023 amounts to € 412,050. Upon valuation at the lower of the carrying amount and the fair value less cost to sell a reversal of impairment of € 7,777 was recognized in "Impairment losses on fixed assets and equity investments" for the period to 30.9.2023. The measurement of the fair value was based on the consideration that the Group expects to receive from the transfer of the aforementioned properties. The above real estate properties are included in the operating segment "Non-Performing Assets" of note 25 "Segmental Reporting"".
On February 2021, the Bank signed with a Consortium a Sale and Purchase Agreement, for the sale of its shares in the company. The contractual period provided under the SPA was set to 24 months (February 2023) so as to cater for the Covid outbreak. Under the SPA the Bank has the option to extend the long stop date for an additional six months. On January 2023, the Bank approved the prolongation of the transaction finalization. The transaction requires certain regulatory pre-requisites in order to be completed and hence the investor requested further extension up to 17 months for its conclusion. The company is included in "Non-Performing Assets" segment for operating segment disclosure purposes (note 25).

This category includes investment properties of Alpha Leasing S.A. which meet the criteria to be classified as held for sale in accordance with IFRS 5. Within 2023 properties with book value € 3,363 were sold for a gain of € 67, whilst properties with net book value of € 6,694 were reclassified from assets held for sale to investment properties as they seized to meet the Held for sale criteria, in accordance with IFRS 5. The carrying amount of the properties as of 30.9.2023 amounts to € 5,294. It is noted that the aforementioned properties of Alpha Leasing are included in "Non-Performing Assets" segment for operating segment disclosure purposes (note 25).
In the third quarter of 2022, the Bank initiated the process of selling the portfolio of properties that were classified under "Other Assets". The context of the transaction is the transfer of these assets to the Group's special purpose entity and in turn the transfer of the shareholding of the latter to an investor. Considering that the sale transaction is expected to be completed within 12 months, the underlying properties were classified during the third quarter of 2022 as a disposal group held for sale. The properties were valued at the lower value between the carrying amount and the fair value less cost to sell, which resulted in a loss of € 1,286 at 31.12.2022 and was included in the "Impairment losses on fixed assets and equity investments".

In June 2023, Alpha Services and Holding Group, in which the Company is the Parent, announced its updated Strategic Plan for the period 2023 - 2025, laying the foundations for value creation and further strengthening of profitability focusing on the following key pillars:
The strategic pillars aim to support the following key economic priorities, taking into account inflationary pressures as well as expected interest rate hikes by the European Central Bank:
• Profitability uplift (EPS growing by > 20% CAGR)
‒ Significant improvement in profitability in all Business Units, and reallocation of capital due to the further reduction of Non-Performing Exposures (increase of the Group's RoCET1 by 6% by 2025 to >16%)
‒ Revenue growth supported by a strong performance in Net Interest Income: annual revenue growth of 5%, largely attributable to annual credit growth of approximately 7% as well as the favorable environment of rising interest rates, resulting in an increase in Net Interest Income of €0.4 billion. (or 9% annual growth) and fee and commission income by €0.1 billion
‒ Disciplined cost management, thus limiting the impact of inflationary pressures and reducing Operating Expenses (approximately -3% per annum) through specific actions
‒ Improvement of the Group's Cost-to-Income Ratio by 14%, as a result of revenue enhancement and cost reduction, approaching 40% in 2025
‒ Reduction (over €1 billion) of non-performing exposures, mainly through organic deleveraging, further decline of the NPE Ratio to approximately 4% and improvement of the NPE Coverage Ratio to approximately 60% as well as further reduction of the Cost of Credit Risk
‒ Broad, well-diversified and resilient deposit base (around 70% of deposits are insured), growing by around 3% per year, approaching around 50% of time deposits
The completion of the above transactions is expected to strengthen the Group's capital reserves by more than 100 basis points, while the exact impact on the results and capital adequacy ratios will be determined upon completion of the due diligence process and the finalization of the contractual texts.
