2 Letter from the CEO

Dear Shareholders,

I am pleased to report our results for the first semester of the year. We continued to successfully gather customer deposits, which grew by 10.2 per cent to reach CZK 368 billion as of the end of June. Retail and commercial deposits rose by 10.2 per cent and 10.3 per cent respectively compared to year-end 2022. We attribute this deposit growth to our pricing policy, marketing strategy and the solid performance of both our digital channels and our branch network.

In June, we introduced a subordinated deposit product with a fixed five-year term and an interest rate of 7 per cent. This was launched in order to help us meet the minimum regulatory requirement set by the Czech National Bank (CNB) for own funds and eligible liabilities, or MREL. It requires us to carry capital or similar instruments at a minimum level of 22.95 per cent against risk weighted assets, effective 31 December 2023.

As we previously communicated, our plan was to raise the necessary funds from our clients. The subordinated deposit was offered to our retail clients in early June and the demand far exceeded our expectations. Within three weeks we successfully raised CZK 2.8 billion. Thus, we are now fully compliant with the requirement. Regarding our dividend policy and future dividend distributions, we are confident that our capacity to continue with such is unchanged.

Thanks to the growth in our deposit base and our successful distribution of subordinated deposits, we continue to have an excellent liquidity position, with a Liquidity Coverage Ratio (LCR) of 285 per cent. Our balance sheet stood at CZK 424 billion as of 30 June.

With respect to interest rate risk management, we continue to hold a higher proportion of our assets on floating rates, assuming that rate cuts will come in early 2024. At the same time, we retain our ability to reprice a majority of our deposit base within three months.

Overall, our financial performance so far this year has exceeded our operating plan and our market guidance. The better than expected performance was positively impacted by several factors.

Firstly, our cost of risk remained low thanks to good repayment discipline across our portfolios and successful non-performing loan (NPL) recoveries. In

fact, we did not see a deterioration in our lending portfolio. Additionally, we successfully disposed of NPLs in the nominal amount of CZK 828 million, which generated a gain of CZK 251 million.

Secondly, and in a continuation of a positive trend from the first quarter, we expanded our distribution capacity of third-party products. Our distribution of pension fund insurance products performed particularly well, increasing by a remarkable 219 per cent year-on-year. This success is largely attributable to the efforts of our staff in our nationwide branch network.

In April we held our Annual General Meeting, with the participation of 70.95 per cent of all shareholders. Our shareholders approved the 2022 financial statements, the remuneration report and the nomination of a new Supervisory Board member. Mrs. Kateřina Jirásková was elected to the Supervisory Board by 82.9 per cent of the votes of the shareholders present at the General Meeting. And lastly, shareholders approved management's proposal to pay a 2022 dividend of CZK 8 per share, which was distributed on 25 May.

Based on the above developments, we are able to increase our minimum performance targets for years 2023-2027. Specifically, our minimum profit target for 2023 was adjusted upwards, from CZK 4.3 billion to CZK 4.7 billion.

CURRENT ECONOMIC ENVIRONMENT

The Czech Republic's state budget deficit reached CZK 215 billion at the end of June, which was an improvement on the CZK 271 billion recorded in May, thanks in part to the collection of corporate taxes. Nonetheless, the budget deficit continues to be one of the highest ever incurred. The government has been seeking agreement on measures to consolidate public finances and reduce the deficit. In June the government introduced a set of measures designed to accomplish this aim. If implemented, the government estimates a positive impact of CZK 151 billion in 2024 and 2025. The consolidation package is currently being considered by parliament, where opposition parties are seeking to prevent or to postpone its approval through obstructive behaviour. Therefore, we cannot report success or failure concerning the approval of these measures.

The consolidation measures include an increase in the corporate income tax rate to 21 per cent from 2024, cuts in state subsidies for businesses, changes in the pension system, changes to VAT rates, and higher taxes on tobacco and gambling. Additionally, the measures also envisage the taxation of employee benefits which, if passed, will increase the cost base of the private sector.

The scourge of high inflation remains, albeit with a positive downward trend. Year-on year inflation fell to single digits of 9.7 per cent in June, down from its peak of 18 per cent some nine months ago. The CNB expects full-year 2023 inflation to be around 11 per cent. It is therefore no surprise that the key rates remain unchanged. The market expectation is that interest rate cuts will come in early 2024. The CNB foresees a return towards its 2 per cent inflation target in the second quarter of 2024.

Economic growth is neutral: GDP remained unchanged quarter-on-quarter, and the expectation for the full year is growth of around 0.5 per cent. Unemployment remains low, at 2.6 per cent, and is expected to remain stable for 2023. Nominal wage growth was running at 9 per cent in the first quarter, but due to inflation real wage growth is negative, at -7 per cent. Retail sales are declining and reflect increasing inflationary pressures on household expenses.

The value of the Koruna remained strong at around 23.7 CZK/EUR during the first six months, with the central bank expecting a gradual weakening to 24 CZK/EUR in the coming quarters.

From the regulatory perspective, the CNB decreased the countercyclical capital buffer by 25 bps to 2.25 per cent. The CNB also removed mortgage-related limits. Specifically, the maximum Debt Service to Income ratio (DSTI) has been abandoned for the time being and higher Loan to Value (LtV) volumes are now allowed. In its latest financial stability report, the regulator confirmed the resilience and stability of the Czech banking sector.

I will now turn to MONETA's financial performance.

1H 2023 FINANCIAL PERFORMANCE

As already mentioned, our financial results met and exceeded our current plan. So far, we have benefitted from better than anticipated cost of risk and a reduced tax liability. The reduction in our tax liability arises from our investments in government bonds, the income from which is tax-exempt. These investments were made due to lower market demand for our credit products. At mid-year, we therefore report a net profit of CZK 2.5 billion, with a 18.9 per cent Return on Tangible Equity.

Our operating income reached CZK 5.9 billion and is in line with our expectations and business plan. If we break down the composition of our operating income, then net interest income decreased by 14 per cent to CZK 4.2 billion. Net interest income was weaker due to the repricing of deposits across our product portfolios. On the other hand, our net fee and commission income reached CZK 1.3 billion, up by more than 20 per cent and attributable to a significant strengthening in our ability to distribute third-party products.

Sales of pension insurance products increased by 219.2 per cent, with more than 18,000 new contracts signed during the first half of this year. We also recorded a material increase in foreign-exchange income, by 15 per cent, due to competitive exchangerate pricing offered through our digital channels and branch network, and a higher level of transactional activity by our clients abroad.

Our operating expenditures increased by 4.4 per cent and reached CZK 2.9 billion. Nonetheless, we are pleased that our cost base remains under control despite high inflation and continued pressure on wages. The chief cause of the cost increase was

a significantly higher level of mandatory, regulatory contributions, which rose by 34.1 per cent due to our growth in deposits, and the higher level of deposit insurance charges mandated by the regulator in May 2023. Within this context, we continue to exercise cost discipline and to focus on productivity improvements.

Our operating profit was CZK 3 billion in the period under review, a decrease of 10.3 per cent year-onyear. The erosion of our operating profit is also attributable to the absence of one-off gains realised during the first half of 2022, namely the refund of M&A costs. Additionally, last year we benefitted from a low cost of funding prior to the repricing of our deposit base, which began during the third quarter of 2022. Neither of these impacts recur this year. Nonetheless, we remain confident in our ability to meet the maximum cost target for the full year.

Concerning our cost of risk, during the first half of 2023 we incurred a net charge CZK 30 million, or 2 basis points. This result was materially and positively impacted by successful NPL disposals that, year-todate, brought a gain of CZK 251 million and decreased the level of NPL portfolio. Our cost of risk was further helped by a satisfactory portfolio performance concerning repayments and a stable level of loan arrears. From the balance sheet perspective, we finished the first half of the year carrying non-performing receivables in the amount of CZK 3.6 billion, which translates into an NPL ratio of 1.3 per cent, the lowest level ever.

Additionally, we continued in our anticipatory creation of loan loss provisions. We strengthened our so-called "management overlays" to a level of CZK 931 million by charging an additional CZK 84 million into this category in the first half of the year. Overall provisioning of our loan portfolio stands at 1.7 per cent and constitutes CZK 4.8 billion.

In the period under review, our investment securities portfolio grew to CZK 80.5 billion, up 38.9 per cent compared to year-end 2022. This portfolio also includes a benefit of tax-exempt revenue stream and the ability to obtain liquidity if and when necessary.

MONETA's effective tax rate is 15.3 per cent thanks to income from government bonds as explained above.

Our consolidated capital adequacy ratio is strong, standing at 19.7 per cent, and exceeding our current regulatory capital management target of 16.35 per cent. Additionally, we continue to have an excellent liquidity position with an LCR of 285 per cent.

Lastly, our client base increased during the first half by 1.6 per cent to 1.5 million clients. The increase is attributable to our price-winning current accounts, savings accounts and term deposits. The Bank once again received prestigious accolade from its clients and as a result obtained winning position in market wide competition "Zlatá koruna".

UPGRADED GUIDANCE FOR 2023–2027

Our minimum cumulative net profit target for 2023 had been increased from CZK 4.3 billion to CZK 4.7 billion. The main drivers behind our higher profit target are an expected lower cost of risk and the updated effective tax rate. Additionally, the minimum target is supported by our confidence to meet and potentially slightly exceed our operating income target and to maintain costs below the maximum level.

We have also increased our medium-term targets. Specifically, we now aim to deliver a minimum cumulative five-year net profit of CZK 25.4 billion. The increased minimum target compares favourably to our previously communicated CZK 23.6 billion.

The upgraded targets are contained in our quarterly financial results presentation, which provides a more detailed view of changes related to specific performance metrics as well as an updated view on the evolution of key balance sheet categories.

1H 2023 BUSINESS PERFORMANCE

MONETA's overall core customer deposit base grew by 10.2 per cent from year-end 2022. As of 30 June, customer deposits reached CZK 368 billion, which is the highest balance ever. Retail core customer deposits grew by 10.2 per cent to CZK 282 billion and core commercial customer deposits grew by 10.3 per cent to CZK 85 billion. Our savings accounts and term deposits grew by 20.3 per cent, while current account deposits decreased by 4.6 per cent as clients continued to transfer their funds to higher yielding deposit products.

I am pleased to report that, overall, our retail and commercial portfolios were stable and in line with the guidance we provided. New lending volumes are decreasing across majority of the loan products, which reflects generally lower demand across the market, and in particular MONETA's adoption of a more conservative stance on new originations. We have built into our underwriting criteria the increased cost of living and inflationary pressures so as to ensure responsible and affordable lending. MONETA will not take advantage of the deactivation of the DSTI as announced by the CNB. In the first half of the year, we did see a sharp increase in new units of commercial credit cards, which rose by 111.1 per cent, this was largely thanks to online approvals and our programme of bonuses on purchases.

Retail segment

Our retail loan portfolio stood at CZK 183.9 billion as of 30 June. Gross performing mortgage receivables were stable at CZK 131.2 billion, but new volumes continued to decline sharply, by 69.7 per cent year-on-year. Other retail portfolios also remained stable with consumer loans at CZK 47.8 billion, and the auto loan portfolio at CZK 2.5 billion. Credit card and overdraft receivables decreased by 5.3 per cent to CZK 2.3 billion.

MONETA's investment funds portfolio increased to CZK 31.6 billion and recorded a fee income of CZK 147 million, up 4.7 per cent on the same period in 2022. MONETA currently offers 36 investment funds.

Commercial segment

Our commercial business was broadly stable at CZK 85.3 billion, up 2.3 per cent compared to year end. New volumes decreased, just as we saw in the retail portfolio and also reflecting our prudent lending criteria. The investment loan portfolio remained stable at CZK 46 billion, with new volumes down 32.7 per cent. Working capital lending receivables were CZK 16.3 billion, up by 14.6 per cent. Our small business portfolio increased by 4.4 per cent to CZK 12.9 billion, however new volumes of small business instalment lending were also down 26.8 per cent year-on-year. Commercial auto loans increased by 5.6 per cent to CZK 7.3 billion.

MONETA Money Bank held the following marketshares as of June 30: consumer lending at 15 per cent; mortgage lending at 8 per cent, and asset management at 4 per cent.

DIGITAL STRATEGY PROGRESS REVIEW

Our number of digital users continues to grow. Smart Banka users reached 987,000 which is 18.4 per cent higher than at the end of 2022. MONETA has enjoyed success in the cross-selling of products via our digital channels, and the share of digital originations during the period under review was 48 per cent for consumer loans and 27 per cent for small business loans. The share of deposit products opened through digital channels is also increasing with 44 per cent of retail current deposits and 57 per cent of retail savings and term accounts originated online.

The Czech Republic is a world leader in the use of tokenised card technology, which increases transaction security. The number of MONETA's tokenised cards increased by 49.9 per cent year-on-year to 480,000, confirming this trend. MONETA this year expanded its offer in this area to offer clients virtual cards, where all data are in digital form only, without a physical card. This helps to save costs, is environmentally friendly and reduces theft and forgery.

CAPITAL POSITION

MONETA is well capitalised. Our regulatory capital stood at CZK 33.8 billion as of 30 June 2023. Our consolidated capital adequacy ratio is a healthy 19.7 per cent and significantly above the management capital target of 16.35 per cent (including the management buffer and the updated countercyclical buffer of 2.25 per cent). Tier 1 ratio reached 15.38 per cent with an excess of 1.93 per cent or CZK 3.3 billion above the Tier 1 management capital target of 13.45 per cent.

As I wrote earlier, we successfully raised subordinated deposits in the amount of CZK 2.8 billion in June, which enabled us to comfortably meet our total MREL requirement of 21.95 per cent, or 22.95 per cent including a management buffer which becomes effective 31 December 2023. Our MREL ratio was 23.7 per cent as of 30 June.

ESG

We continue to successfully reduce our CO2 emissions. Since 2016, when MONETA was one of the first companies in the Czech Republic to start calculating its carbon footprint, we have achieved a significant reduction by 81.3 per cent in our direct carbon dioxide production. In our total carbon footprint i.e., the so-called Scope 1, 2 and 3, the reduction over the past five years amounts to 51.2 per cent. This calculation was verified by an independent auditor according to international ISO standards. The decrease in direct emissions is mainly achieved by energy and fuel savings, as well as the switch to all-green electricity in all of our branches and the increasing share of electric vehicles in our fleet of company cars.

MONETA launched a "green" lending programme for both small business and retail clients in the first half of the year, under which it will lend up to CZK 2.5 million to sole traders and small businesses to help them finance energy-saving projects and sustainability measures. For retail clients, MONETA will lend up to CZK 1.5 million for energy-saving projects.

Our drive towards full digitalisation has reduced paper consumption by 194 tonnes over the last three years with the growing use of electronic contractual documents, marketing materials and even cash register receipts. This move away from printed material has helped to reduce electricity consumption by 46 per cent. Clients and bankers alike praise the quicker and more efficient digital contract process. Discarded printers and other IT equipment are donated to non-profit organisations as part of our MON HELP programme.

I also would like to inform you that in 2Q 2023, MONETA organised an employee satisfaction survey through an external company. The response rate was 88% of all employees. The main index reached 78 points, which is comparable to the financial sector. Detailed results were shared with all staff. The Management Board together with MON FAIR committee, its advisory body, are working together to define the concrete set of actions to reinforce engagement and staff satisfaction.

Lastly, I would like to thank to all my colleagues across the bank and subsidiaries for their effort and endurance showed in these past six months.

Sincerely,

Tomáš Spurný Chairman of the Management Board and CEO of MONETA Money Bank, a.s.

4 Macroeconomic Environment

In the second quarter of 2023, the Czech economy was still influenced by the impact of the ongoing Russian invasion of Ukraine. A period of high inflation and high interest rates resulted in a shallow economic recession in the second half of 2022, characterised by a decline in retail sales, which turned into an economic stagnation in the first half of 2023. Although the situation is slowly improving, a visible economic recovery is likely to be seen only in the second half of the year.

In the first quarter of 2023, the gross domestic product of the Czech economy was flat quarter on quarter, while the annual result fell to (0.5)%9 . The economy was supported mainly by the manufacturing sector, with demand side economic performance driven mainly by foreign demand and government expenditures. Household spending keeps recording a decline.

According to sectoral indicators, the economic situation continued to be challenging also in the second quarter of the year. Retail sales continued to decline year-on-year, falling by 6.1%10 in May. This was influenced by weak consumer economic confidence and continued high inflation. Despite the difficulties on the consumer side, industry managed to maintain year-on-year growth, with production up by 1.4%11 year-on-year in May. Industrial growth comes mainly from manufacturing, where car production still maintains an upward trend and supports the whole economy.

Year-on-year consumer price growth reached 9.7%12 in June, with housing and food prices remaining the main inflation drivers. Inflation has been slowing in recent months and reached for the first time since December 2021 a single digit number, mainly due to food, energy and fuel prices, which have stabilised. With no further acceleration in inflation, interest rates have remained stable throughout the second quarter, with the Czech National Bank still maintaining its main monetary policy rate at 7%13 .

The economic issues of last quarters have not had a significant impact on the labour market. The unemployment rate, as measured by the ILO methodology, reached 2.5%14 in May and was at the same level as in May 2022. On the other hand, the average nominal gross wages grew only by 8.6%15 year-on-year in the first quarter, lagging far behind inflation. Thus, real wages kept falling by 6.7%.

The Czech economy recorded stabilization and moved from a mild recession into stagnation. The recovery of domestic economy should continue in the second half of the year and, if no further escalation of economic problems occurs, the economy should return to growth and record a mild increase by 0.5% in 2023, according to the latest macroeconomic forecast of the Czech National Bank.16

The banking sector's total operating income decreased by 6% year-on-year in the first quarter of 202317. Net interest income declined by 4% year-onyear17 , same as Net non-interest income (-10% yearon-year)17 . The Czech banking sector's net profit decreased by 10% year-on-year to CZK 21.1 billion17 .

5.2 Financial Performance

Operating income in the first half of 2023 amounted to CZK 5.9 billion, down 3.6% year-on-year, primarily due to Net Interest Income decline.

Net interest income amounted to CZK 4.2 billion for the six months ended 30 June 2023, a 14.0% decrease year-on-year.

Operating expenses for the six months of 2023 amounted to CZK 2,917 million, a 4.4% increase, compared to the same period of 2022, driven by higher regulatory charges, administrative and other operating expenses and higher depreciation and amortization.

5.3 Outlook for 2023 and Risks

According to the latest Czech National Bank macroeconomic forecast, announced on 3 May 2023, the Czech economy is expected to grow only marginally in 2023. In the second half of the year, however, a recovery should take place, supported by slowing inflation and restoration of consumer confidence and spending. The full-year GDP growth in 2023 is forecasted to be 0.5% and the economy will return to a decent growth of 3.0% in 2024.19

The CNB's forecast assumes that inflation will reach 11.2% on average in 2023 and will continue to fall gradually to levels around the central bank's inflation target of 2.1% on average in 2024. This corresponds with the two-week repo rate at levels around 7% at least during Q3 2023 and decreasing slowly to 4.0% in the last quarter of 2024.

The economic outlook for the Czech Republic's near future is improving. The inflationary factors that were observed last year have disappeared and current inflation seems to be fed mainly by momentum. The economic recovery that is expected to take place in the second half of the year will return the economy to a normal growth rate. The main problem for the domestic economy is slowly becoming the rapidly growing public debt, which could have the potential to undermine future economic performance.

In terms of the 2023 full-year outlook for financial results, the management decided to update its previously published guidance:

• Operating income to reach CZK 12.0 billion, in line with previously communicated guidance, of which CZK 5.9 billion was delivered in the first half of the year (i.e. 49% of the full-year outlook).

  • Operating expenses to remain at or below CZK 5.7 billion, in line with previously communicated guidance, of which CZK 2.9 billion was incurred in the first half of the year (i.e. 51% of the full-year outlook).
  • Cost of risk are now projected at between 15-35bps (versus 25-45bps as previously communicated), with the improvement driven by positive first half result. In the first half of the year, the Cost of Risk amounted to 2bps.
  • Effective tax rate for the full year expected at around 16% against previously expected 22% for the full year 2023.
  • Net profit to amount to at least CZK 4.7 billion, a CZK 0.4 billion increase versus guidance published on 3 February 2023. The net profit for the six months of 2023 in the amount of CZK 2.5 billion represents 53% of the updated full-year outlook.

8 Notes to Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Interim Financial Statements

8.1 Reporting Entity

MONETA Money Bank, a.s. (the "Bank") is a company domiciled in the Czech Republic. These condensed consolidated interim financial statements ("interim financial statements") as at and for the six months ended 30 June 2023 comprise the Bank and its consolidated subsidiaries (together referred to as the "Group").

8.2 Basis of Preparation and Presentation

These interim financial statements have been prepared in accordance with IAS 34 Interim Financial Reporting and should be read in conjunction with the Group's last annual consolidated financial statements as at and for the year ended 31 December 2022 ("last annual financial statements"). These interim financial statements do not include all the information required for a complete set of IFRS financial statements. However, selected explanatory notes are included to explain events and transactions that are significant to an understanding of the changes in the Group's financial position and performance since the last annual financial statements. These interim financial statements were neither audited nor reviewed by an auditor.

The Group's interim financial statements were authorised for issue by the Management Board on 26 July 2023.

Going concern

These interim financial statements are prepared on a going concern basis, as the Management Board of the Bank is satisfied that the Group has the resources to continue in business for the foreseeable future. In making this assessment, the Management Board of the Bank has considered a wide range of information relating to present and future conditions, including future projections of profitability, cash flows and capital resources.

Functional and presentation currency

These interim financial statements are presented in Czech Koruna (CZK) which is the functional currency of all Group entities. All amounts have been rounded to the nearest million, except where otherwise indicated.

8.3 Use of Judgements and Estimates

In preparing these interim financial statements, management has made judgements, estimates and assumptions that affect the application of accounting policies and the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, income and expense. Actual results may differ from these estimates.

Significant judgements made by the management in applying the Group's accounting policies and the key sources of uncertainty estimation are significantly impacted by the situation related to the macroeconomic and geopolitical situation.

In the area of expected cash flows resulting from loan receivables, used for determination of amortised cost of the debt financial assets, are made significant estimates, related to future development of prepayments of the loan's notional amount, by the management of the Group.

8.4 Significant Accounting Policies

The significant accounting policies used in preparation of these interim financial statements are consistent with those used in the last Consolidated Annual Financial Statements.

Uncertainty regarding the future macroeconomic environment evolution has remained pronounced in the second quarter of 2023 since the inflation and interest rates remained on elevated levels. To account for these risk factors in expected credit loss model, the Group has maintained and updated framework of management overlays in the second quarter of 2023. As of June 30, 2023, the total management overlay amount stood at CZK 931 million.

In Q2 2023, the Group closely monitored evolution of the macroeconomic prognoses provided by Czech public authorities such as Ministry of Finance of the Czech Republic and Czech National Bank and concluded that the forward-looking macroeconomic scenarios of main macroeconomic drivers such as GDP growth and unemployment rate implemented in August 2022 are appropriate with respect to the current macroeconomic situation in Q2 2023.

8.19 Risk Management

The Group aims to achieve competitive returns at an acceptable risk level as part of its business activities. Risk management covers the control of risks associated with all business activities in the environment in which the Group operates and ensures that the risks taken are in compliance with regulatory limits, as well as falling within its risk appetite.

The risk management policies and practices have not changed since 31 December 2022 and are described in the Annual Financial Report for 2022.

8.19.1 Capital management

Regulatory Capital and its components and capital adequacy:

Tier 1 Ratio 15.4% 15.3%
Total Capital Ratio (CAR) 19.7% 18.0%

* RWA density is calculated in compliance with BIS Working Papers: Leverage and Risk Weighted Capital Requirements.

The framework used for capital management involves monitoring and complying with the capital adequacy limit in accordance with the Basel III rules codified in Regulation (EU) No. 575/2013 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 26 June 2013 on prudential requirements for credit institutions and investment firms and amending Regulation (EU) No. 648/2012, as amended (hereafter "CRR"), Directive 2013/36/EU of the European Parliament and of the Council of 26 June 2013 on access to the activity of credit institutions and the prudential supervision of credit institutions and investment firms, amending Directive 2002/87/EC and repealing Directives 2006/48/EC and 2006/49/EC, as amended (hereafter "CRD"), and Directive (EU) 2014/59 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 15 May 2014 establishing a framework for the recovery and resolution of credit institutions and investment firms, as amended (hereafter "BRRD"), and their implementing measures. This European regulatory framework was significantly revised in May 2019 by adoption of the so-called Banking Package, which introduced amendments to, inter alia, CRR (hereafter "CRR II")22, CRD (hereafter "CRD V")23 and BRRD (hereafter "BRRD II") 24 .

22 Regulation (EU) 2019/876 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 20 May 2019 amending Regulation (EU) No 575/2013 as regards the leverage ratio, the net stable funding ratio, requirements for own funds and eligible liabilities, counterparty credit risk, market risk, exposures to central counterparties, exposures to collective investment undertakings, large exposures, reporting and disclosure requirements, and Regulation (EU) No 648/2012.

23 Directive (EU) 2019/878 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 20 May 2019 amending Directive 2013/36/EU as regards exempted entities, financial holding companies, mixed financial holding companies, remuneration, supervisory measures and powers and capital conservation measures.

24 Directive (EU) 2019/879 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 20 May 2019 amending Directive 2014/59/EU as regards the loss-absorbing and recapitalisation capacity of credit institutions and investment firms and Directive 98/26/EC.

Furthermore, the regulatory framework within the Czech legal system is comprised mainly of Banking Act No. 21/1992 Coll., as amended, CNB Decree No. 163/2014 Coll., as amended, and Act No. 374/2015 Coll., on recovery and resolution in the financial market, as amended (hereafter "Recovery and Resolution Act").

In order to calculate the regulatory capital requirement for credit risk, on individual as well as on consolidated basis, the Bank uses the standardised (STA) approach. To calculate the regulatory capital requirement for operational risk, the Bank uses the alternative standardised approach (ASA) on an individual basis in 2022, from 2023 the Bank has started using the standardised approach (TSA). The standardised approach (TSA) is used to calculate the capital requirement for operational risk on a consolidated basis for the rest of the Group. The Bank calculates regulatory capital requirements against the market risk of the trading book since the third quarter of 2018.

Since 2020, the CNB as the national resolution authority has identified banks with critical functions, including the Bank, which may not be orderly dissolved via general corporate law liquidation or insolvency proceedings and failure of which would be dealt with pursuant to the Recovery and Resolution Act and set a specific Minimum Requirement for Own Funds and Eligible Liabilities (hereafter "MREL") for each of them.

In May 2023, the Bank received an updated MREL specification from the CNB pursuant to which it must comply with the MREL requirement on an individual basis of 17.2% (before 17.1%) of its total risk exposure and 4.92% (before 4.98%) of its total exposure effective from 1 January 2024. The MREL requirement is calculated as a sum of a Loss Absorption Amount (Pillar I capital requirement of 8% and Pillar II capital requirement of 2.6% (before 2.4%) 25 – values valid as of the date of the initiation of the planning process for resolution) and a Recapitalisation Amount set at 6.6% (before 6.7%). The combined buffer requirement (a capital conservation buffer of 2.5% and a countercyclical capital buffer of 2% – values valid from 1 January 2023; from 1 April 2023 the countercyclical capital buffer has increased to 2.5% and from 1 July has decreased to 2.25%) is not taken into account in the MREL calculation and the Bank must comply with it on top of the MREL requirement. The CNB set a transitional period for the Bank to meet the MREL requirement by 31 December 2023. The Bank must also fulfil an interim target level of the MREL requirement of 13.5% (that is the corresponding Recapitalisation Amount of 3.1%) of its total risk exposure and 3.93% of its total exposure from 1 January 2022. The CNB further expects that the Bank will maintain capital and eligible liabilities of at least 15.1% of its total risk exposure (that is the corresponding Recapitalisation Amount at 4.7%) and 4.4% of its total exposure from 1 January 2023.

The new amount of the countercyclical capital buffer of 2.25% has decreased a total regulatory capital requirement of the Bank by 0.25% from 1 July 2023 both on individual basis (from 13.0% to 12.75%) and consolidated basis (from 15.6% to 15.35%).

25 Although Pillar II capital requirement was set only on a consolidated basis, its value was used for setting of MREL requirement on an individual basis.

10 Alternative Performance Measures

In this report, certain financial data and measures are presented which are not calculated pursuant to any accounting standard and which are therefore non-IFRS measures and alternative performance measures as defined in the European Securities and Markets Authority Guidelines on Alternative Performance Measures. These financial data and measures are core cost of funds, core cost of risk, core customer deposits, core loan to deposit ratio, core NPL coverage, cost of funds, cost of risk, cost to income ratio, dividend yield, excess capital, excess liquidity, LCR, legacy NPL, liquid assets, liquidity buffer, loan to deposit ratio, net interest margin, net non-interest income, new production / new volume, NPL / Non-performing loans, NPL ratio, online sales / origination / production / volume, operational risk, opportunistic repo operations, reported return on tangible equity, return on average assets, RWA, tangible equity, total NPL coverage, yield on net customer loans / loan portfolio yield.

All alternative performance measures included in this document are calculated for the specified period.

These alternative performance measures are included to (i) extend the financial disclosure also to metrics which are used, along with IFRS measures, by the management for evaluation of the Group's performance, and (ii) provide to investors further basis, along with IFRS measures, for measuring the Group's performance. Because of the discretion that the Group has in defining these measures and calculating the reported amounts, care should be taken in comparing these various measures with similar measures used by other companies. These measures should not be used as a substitute for evaluating the performance of the Group based on the Consolidated Financial Statements of the Group. Non-IFRS measures have limitations as analytical tools, and investors should not consider them in isolation, or as a substitute for analysis of the Group's results as reported under IFRS and set out in the Consolidated Financial Statements of the Group, and investors should not place any undue reliance on non-IFRS measures. Non-IFRS measures presented in this report should not be considered as measures of discretionary cash available to the Group to invest in the growth of the business, or as measures of cash that will be available to the Group to meet its obligations. Investors should rely primarily on the Group's IFRS results and use the non-IFRS measures only as supplemental means for evaluating the performance of the Group.
