  • -€32mln (vs. -€24mln in 3Q22) costs directly linked to Npl recovery driven by judicial workout acceleration and the onboarding / assignments of sizeable newly acquired Npl portfolios in 4Q22 3

Efficiency translating into operating cost control

Very resilient loan book confirms asset quality

  • 4Q22 LLP of €29mln, including €22mln one-offs on Npl segment due to the Government decree ("decreto aiuti") which increases the threshold for the execution of legal proceedings against pensions to €1000 (up from €750)

Banca Ifis Group – Capital ratios evolution

CET1 actual of 15.01% at 31 Dec 22, calculated including FY net income and dividend

Key items of CET1 evolution in 4Q22

  • +0.12% due to 4Q22 net profit net of dividend
  • -1.27% due to RWA Increase: selective investments in financial and corporate bonds at attractive risk return ratios in Nov/Dec 22 (+€518mln; -85bps) and "peak" end of year of Corporate exposure (+€351mln; -59bps mainly due to factoring business)

Capital put to work at attractive risk/return: the capital that was freed up in 3Q22 (due to the change in weight of RWA from 150% to 100% of distressed credits acquired by the Npl Business), was invested in 4Q22

Strong capital and funding position put at work

Includes €32mln (+8mln QoQ) variable NPL recovery costs and €7mln FITD&SRF costs reclassified from provisions for risks and charges

In the above statements, net impairment losses/reversals on receivables of the Npl Segment were reclassified to interest receivable and similar income to the extent to which they represent the operations of this business and are an integral part of the return on the investment. For this reason too, apart from the specific operations, the effects of an analysis performed also in response to the Covid-19 pandemic, have been classified amongst value adjustments. In addition:

• Operating costs exclude "Net allocations to provisions for risks and charges"

• Loan loss provisions include: "Net provisions for unfunded commitments and guarantees"; "Profit (loss) from sale of loans measured at amortised cost (excluding Npl Segment)"

Factoring

  • 4Q22 factoring turnover at €3.5bn (+8% QoQ) driven by business development and seasonality 1
  • The reduction of the factoring turnover and factoring loans YoY (-6%) is due the revision of the business model of the factoring vs. the public administration, following the full application of the New DoD 2
  • Net revenues / average customer loans at 7.4% following loan repricing 3

Leasing

revamping commercial activity and seasonality

  • Net revenues / average customer loans at 4.6% in 4Q22 due to loan repricing (3.9% in 3Q22) 2

** As stated by CRR (article 48), these kind of DTAs are subjected to a double threshold mechanism: if their amount is less than 10% of the CET1 Capital, they are weighted at 250%; if their amount added to the total investments in financial sector subjects is less than 17.65% they are weighted. If the amount of DTAs is greater than or the first or the second threshold, the amount in excess is deducted from CET1 Capital.

2.4 Focus on PPA

Focus on ex-Interbanca PPA

  • In 2016, following the acquisition of former Interbanca, Banca Ifis valued the performing and non performing loans of Interbanca by applying a market discount and a liquidity discount to reflect purchase price
  • The purchase price allocation (PPA) is written back with the progressive maturity/the disposal of Interbanca's loans
  • As at 31 Dec 22, the residual amount of pre-tax PPA was €21mln
