Non performing loans (NPL)

Deep dive

• NPL classification depends on a variety of triggers (e.g. arrears, NOI, DSCR, LtVs, yields, prices, marketability, …)
• NPL classification might be triggered even if no nominal loss will be made but contractual payments are or potentially will not be received in line with the agreement (timing / amounts)
• Current NPL portfolio:
• 27% of NPL portfolio with LtV <100%
• 32% of NPL portfolio with DSCR >100%1)
• ➔ Only 50% of NPL portfolio with LtV >100% and DSCR <100%

➔ Meaningful share of NPLs with decent risk parameters

Implications of the Russian war against Ukraine

New Russian NPL ~60% provisioned; No exposure in Ukraine

Spotlight: Inflation impact on real estate markets

General

• Various protection mechanisms installed between bank and client as well as between client and tenant
• Various mitigating factors depending on property type (eg. Structural changes, Corona recovery, Higher construction costs / material shortage supporting existing properties)
• Cap Rates: stable so far, still high spreads compared to alternative investments

Protection mechanism
Property type	Relationship Bank – Client (loan contract)	Relationship Client – Tenant
Office	+ Generally DSCR/ICR covenants	+ Rents in many cases index-linked + Mix of various tenants + Rental agreements with different maturities
Retail	+ NOI 12M forward looking + Interest: Hedged rate (eg contractually agreed cap) or fixed rate	+ Rent includes sales revenue based component → inflation caused sales revenue increase supporting rent + Mix of various tenants + Rental agreements with different maturities
Logistic	+ Cash sweep in case of covenants breach	+ In many cases portfolio transactions → mix of various tenants + Tenants regularly with group support + Rents in many cases index-linked
Hotel	+ Various covenants (eg DSCR/ICR, YoD, LtV) + NOI 12M retrospectively1) + Interest: Hedged rate or fixed rate + Cash sweep in case of covenants breach	+ Rent per room changeable short-term
		Well protected against "normal" inflation. Stagflation could trigger challenges

1) For risk assessment also considering forward looking NOI
