Turin - Milan, 4 November 2020 – At its meeting today, the Board of Directors of Intesa Sanpaolo approved the consolidated interim statement as at 30 September 2020 (*) (6) .

Results for the first nine months of 2020 confirm Intesa Sanpaolo's ability to effectively face the challenging aftermath of the COVID-19 epidemic. They reflect the Group's sustainable profitability, which derives from a solid capital base and a strong liquidity position, a resilient and well-diversified business model and the strategic flexibility in managing operating costs. The results also reflect the support provided to Italy by the Group, which is also committed to becoming a reference model in terms of sustainability and social and cultural responsibility.

Sustainable value generation for all stakeholders will be accreted by the combination with UBI Banca following the acquisition of control on 5 August 2020, which is well underway and has low execution risk also due to Intesa Sanpaolo's proven track record in managing integrations, enhancing local economies and UBI Banca people and achieving further reduction of risk profile and significant synergies with no social costs.

Compared with the first nine months of 2019, Intesa Sanpaolo - excluding the acquisition of UBI Banca - recorded, specifically, improvement in capital ratios, efficiency and asset quality. The cost of risk, too, improved when excluding loan adjustments for future COVID-19 impacts.

The trends of the new environment find Intesa Sanpaolo fully equipped thanks to the Group's competitive advantages:

growing demand for health, wealth and business protection: Intesa Sanpaolo leadership in Wealth Management & Protection and stronger positioning in the health insurance sector enhanced through the acquisition of RBM;
riskier environment: effective proactive credit management (Pulse, with around 370 dedicated people) and Group's strategic partnerships with leading NPL industrial players; Intesa Sanpaolo ranked first among Italian corporates in the "Cyber Resilience amid a Global Pandemic" competition, organised by AIPSA (Italian Association of Corporate Security Professionals);
customer digitalisation: top positioning in Europe for mobile app functionalities and Group's strong digital proposition, with around 10.1 million multichannel customers (over 12 million including UBI Banca) and around 6.2 million customers using the Intesa Sanpaolo App (over 7 million including the UBI Banca App), and strategic partnership with Nexi in respect of payment systems (shareholding in the Nexi capital);

________ (*) In accordance with Article 65-bis and Article 82-ter of the Issuers' Regulation, effective as of 2 January 2017, Intesa Sanpaolo opted for periodical disclosure, on a voluntary basis, of financial information as at 31 March and 30 September of each financial year, in addition to the annual report and the half-yearly report. This information consists of interim statements approved by the Board of Directors, basically providing continuity with the interim statements published in the past.

⁽⁶⁾ Methodological note on the scope of consolidation on page 26.

digital way of working: already over 63,000 Group people in smart working (around 77,000 including UBI Banca) and optimisation of the distribution model with over 1,000 branches rationalised since 2018 and further possible branch reduction following the Banca 5 - SisalPay strategic partnership and changes in customer behaviour brought about by COVID-19, with most customers who will continue to be served by the Group via its highquality alternative channels;
growing importance of sustainability and social responsibility (ESG): Intesa Sanpaolo is the only Italian bank listed in three of the main sustainability indices, Dow Jones Sustainability Indices, CDP Climate Change A List 2018 and 2019 Corporate Knights "Global 100 Most Sustainable Corporations in the World Index", and ranks first among European banks by MSCI, CDP and Sustainalytics, three of the top ESG international assessments.

In the first nine months of 2020, the Group recorded:

● stated net income at €6,376m, at €3,112m excluding the negative goodwill arising from the acquisition of UBI Banca to be allocated in Q4 2020 against integration charges, improvement of efficiency and acceleration of de-risking. The amount of the negative goodwill (€3,264m after the deduction of the portion allocated to the going concern to be sold to BPER Banca) is provisional, given that the final amount will be redetermined at the time of preparation of the 2020 financial statements following the outcome of the PPA (Purchase Price Allocation) procedure through the exact calculation, as at the date of acquisition, of the fair value of identifiable assets acquired and liabilities assumed of the UBI Banca Group. Excluding also the two-month contribution of UBI Banca, net income was €3,073m versus €3,310m in 9M 2019, exceeding the around €3bn minimum net income envisaged for 2020 and would be €3,956m, up around 20% on 9M 2019, when excluding €1,312m in loan adjustments for future COVID-19 impacts.
● growth in gross income, up around 16% on 9M 2019 (°) when excluding loan adjustments for future COVID-19 impacts, also due to the strong recovery in Q3 2020 of net interest income and net fee and commission income, which grew 3.9% and 6.7% respectively on the previous quarter;
● reduction in operating costs, down 3.7% on 9M 2019 (°);

______

● high efficiency highlighted by a cost/income of 50.2% in 9M 2020 excluding the UBI Banca contribution and 50.7% including it – a level that puts Intesa Sanpaolo in the top tier amongst European peers;
● annualised cost of risk in 9M 2020 (°) at 44bps excluding the impact of adjustments for future COVID-19 impacts (equivalent to 44bps) versus the 53bps of 2019;
● improving credit quality mainly due to an effective proactive credit management approach, at no extraordinary cost to shareholders:
- gross NPLs were reduced (°) (*) by around €2.7bn in 9M 2020, by around €37bn since the

^(°) Excluding the contribution of the acquisition of UBI Banca, consolidated from the third quarter of 2020.

^(*) Excluding the new definition of default adopted in November 2019. The increase due to its impact on NPLs was around €0.6bn gross and around €0.5bn net in Q4 2019, around €0.1bn gross and net in Q1 2020, around €0.2bn gross and net in Q2 2020 and around 0.1bn gross and net in Q3 2020.

September 2015 peak (the reduction was around €23bn excluding the sale of NPLs to Intrum and Prelios), and by around €24bn since December 2017 (the reduction was around €11bn when excluding the transactions with Intrum and Prelios) achieving as much as 94% of the reduction target set for the entire four-year period of the 2018-2021 Business Plan;

NPL stock, in September 2020 (°) , decreased 7.5% gross and 7.2% net on December 2019 (the decrease was 8.9% gross and 10.1% net when excluding the effect of the new definition of default);

robust reserve buffer on performing loans, amounting to 0.6% at the end of September 2020 whether or not the contribution of UBI Banca is included;
● very solid capital position, with capital ratios well above regulatory requirements. As at 30 September 2020, afterthe deduction from capital of around €2.3bn of dividends accrued in 9M 2020, the pro-forma fully loaded Common Equity Tier 1 ratio came in at 15.2% (7) (8) , at 15.9% excluding the acquisition of UBI Banca – one of the highest levels amongst major European banks – and the Common Equity Tier 1 ratio calculated by applying the transitional arrangements for 2020 came in at 14.7% (8) (9) , at 15.5% excluding the acquisition of UBI Banca. The aforementioned ratios compare with the SREP requirement for 2020, comprising Capital Conservation Buffer, O-SII Buffer and Countercyclical Capital Buffer (10) , which set the fully loaded Common Equity Tier 1 ratio at 8.63% and the phased-in Common Equity Tier 1 ratio at 8.44% applying the new regulatory measure, introduced by the ECB and effective from 12 March 2020, that establishes the partial use of capital instruments that do not qualify as Common Equity Tier 1 to meet the Pillar 2 requirement.

Outlook

________________________

For the Intesa Sanpaolo Group, without taking the acquisition of UBI Banca into account, net income of no lower than around €3bn and no lower than around €3.5bn is expected for 2020 and 2021 respectively, assuming a potential cost of risk of up to around 90bps in 2020 and around 70bps in 2021.

Even taking the acquisition of UBI Banca into account, the Group's dividend policy is confirmed. It envisages the distribution of cash dividends corresponding to a payout ratio of 75% and 70% for 2020 (14) and 2021 respectively. This is subject to ECB indications which will be announced in respect of dividend distribution after 1 January 2021, the deadline for the recommendation of 28 July 2020.

In addition to the envisaged distribution of cash dividends from the 2020 net income, Intesa Sanpaolo intends to obtain approval from the ECB to distribute cash from reserves in 2021 in light of the allocation of the 2019 net income to reserves in 2020.

The pro-forma fully loaded Common Equity Tier 1 ratio expected to be above 13% (15) in 2021 is confirmed, even taking the acquisition of UBI Banca and the aforementioned potential cash distribution from reserves into account.

For the Group resulting from the acquisition of UBI Banca, it is envisaged, as of 2022, a net income of no lower than €5bn and a strategy that remains focused on rewarding shareholders and maintaining solid capital ratios. There is the intention to disclose the new Business Plan by the end of 2021, as soon as the macroeconomic scenario becomes clearer.

* * *

⁽¹⁴⁾ Excluding the contribution of the negative goodwill not allocated to cover integration charges and reduce risk profile from net income. The actual determination of the negative goodwill will result following the outcome of the PPA procedure, provided for under IFRS 3, at the time of preparation of the 2020 financial statements, through the exact calculation, as at the date of acquisition, of the fair value of identifiable assets acquired and liabilities assumed of the UBI Banca Group.

⁽¹⁵⁾ Estimated by applying the fully loaded parameters, taking into account the total absorption of deferred tax assets (DTAs) related to goodwill realignment, loan adjustments, the first time adoption of IFRS 9 and the non-taxable public cash contribution of €1,285m covering the integration and rationalisation charges relating to the acquisition of the Aggregate Set of Banca Popolare di Vicenza and Veneto Banca, as well as the expected absorption of DTAs on losses carried forward and on the sale of the going concern to BPER Banca in relation to the acquisition of UBI Banca.

^. Above 12% when excluding the aforementioned DTA absorptions.

For consistency purpose, the income statement figures for the first three quarters of 2019 were restated following the agreement, signed in December 2019, in respect of the transfer to Nexi of the Intesa Sanpaolo business line consisting of the acquiring activities. The related items were deconsolidated line by line and the business line's contribution to the income statement was included under Income (Loss) from discontinued operations.

For these same quarters, the income statement and balance sheet figures relating to the Banca dei Territori Division and the IMI Corporate & Investment Banking Division were restated following the incorporation, in November 2019, of the Mediocredito Italiano subsidiary into the Parent Company, while the figures of the Divisions for the four quarters of 2019 were restated due to the allocation from the Corporate Centre of cost components and the income statement and balance sheet items relating to bad loans, previously allocated under the NPE Department (formerly, Capital Light Bank).

Furthermore, the income statement figures for the four quarters of 2019 were restated following the agreement, signed in December 2019, in respect of the strategic partnership with Prelios, which includes a contract for the servicing of an unlikely-to-pay loan portfolio of the Intesa Sanpaolo Group to be provided by Prelios, estimating the commissions theoretically owed to Prelios and recognising these, on one hand, to "administrative expenses", and, on the other, to "taxes on income" and "minority interests".

Finally, the income statement and balance sheet figures for the four quarters of 2019 and the first quarter of 2020 were restated following the acquisition of RBM Assicurazione Salute, finalised in May 2020. The related items were consolidated line by line, including the corresponding net income under minority interests and the corresponding shareholders' equity under shareholders' equity minority interests.

In order to present more complete information on the results generated as at 30 September 2020, the reclassified consolidated income statement and the reclassified consolidated balance sheet included in the interim statement approved by the Board of Directors are attached. Please note that the auditing firm is completing the activities for the issue of a statement in accordance with Article 26 (2) of Regulation EU no. 575/2013 and ECB Decision no. 2015/656.
