2 Accounting principles

2.1 Basis for preparation

Statement of compliance

These interim condensed consolidated financial statements of the Alior Bank Spółka Akcyjna Group for the 3-month period ended 31 March 2024 have been prepared in accordance with the International Accounting Standard 34 "Interim Financial Reporting" as adopted by the European Union and in accordance with the requirements set out in the Regulation of the Minister of Finance of 29 of March 2018 on current and periodic information provided by issuers of securities and the conditions for recognizing as equivalent information required by the law of a non-member state.

The interim condensed consolidated financial statements do not include all information and disclosures required in the annual financial statements and should therefore be read together with the consolidated financial statements of the Alior Bank Group for 2023.

The interim condensed consolidated income statement, interim condensed consolidated statement of comprehensive income, interim condensed consolidated statement of changes in equity and interim condensed consolidated statement of cash flows for the financial period from 1 January 2024 to 31 March 2024 and interim condensed consolidated statement of financial position as at 31 March 2024 including the comparatives have been prepared in accordance with the same accounting policies as those applied in the preparation of the annual financial statements ended 31 December 2023, except for the changes in the standards that entered into force on 1 January 2024 and changes in accounting policies described in Note 2.2.

Scope and reporting currency

The interim condensed consolidated financial statements of the Alior Bank SA Group comprise the data of the Bank and its subsidiaries. These interim condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in Polish zloty ("PLN"). All figures, unless otherwise indicated, are rounded to the nearest thousand.

Going concern

These interim condensed consolidated financial statements of the Alior Bank SA Group have been prepared on the assumption that the entities within the Group will continue as going concerns in the foreseeable future, not less than 12 moths from the balance sheet date i.e. after 31 March 2024.

As at the date of approval of this report by the Bank's Management Board, there are no circumstances indicating a threat to the continued operation of the Capital Group. Taking this assumption, the Management Board took into account in its assessment the impact of factors subject to uncertainty, in particular the armed conflict in Ukraine lasting from 24 February 2022, on the macroeconomic situation and its own operations.

Based on the analyses, the Group does not identify the negative impact of the circumstances on the assessment of the validity of the preparation of the financial statements, assuming no threat to the Group's going concern in the foreseeable future.

2.2 Accounting principles

2.2.1 Relevant estimates

The Group makes estimates and makes assumptions that affect the values of assets and liabilities presented in this and the next reporting period. Estimates and assumptions that are subject to continuous evaluation are based on historical experience and other factors, including expectations as to future events that seem justified in a given situation.

Recognition of bancassurance income

The Group allocates the received remuneration for distribution of insurance products related to the sale of loans – in accordance with the economic content of the transaction – as remuneration constituting:

  • an integral part of the remuneration received for the offered financial instruments;
  • remuneration for agency services;
  • remuneration for the provision of additional activities performed during the insurance contract (recognised by the Group over a period when the services are provided).

The economic title of the received remuneration determines the way it is disclosed in the Bank's books.

The model of "relative fair value" is applied to determine the split of the remuneration related to insurance offered in connection with cash and mortgage loans and insurance sold without any relationship to financial instruments (in terms of provision for customer resigns and administrative costs).

The "relative fair value" model approved by the Group consists in estimating the fair value of each element of the overall service of loan sale with insurance in order to determine the proportion of fair value of both services. In accordance with such proportion of fair value, remuneration under the joint loan and insurance transaction is allocated to each component.

Impairment of loans, expected credit losses

At each reporting date, the Group assesses the credit quality of the receivables and assesses whether there are objective triggers for impairment of credit exposures and whether the credit exposure has impaired.

The Group accepts that a financial asset or a group of financial assets are impaired and such impairment loss is incurred only when there are objective indications resulting from one or more events that have occurred

after the initial recognition of such asset and the event (or events) causing trigger has a negative impact on the expected future cash flows of a given exposure, leading to the recognition of a loss. Therefore, for all impaired credit exposures, the Group determines an allowance representing the difference between the gross exposure value and the expected recoveries after taking into account the default status / probability in a given time horizon.

Exposures with no identified impairment indications are grouped in homogeneous groups in terms of the risk profile and a provision is recognised for such group of exposures to cover expected losses (ECL).

The estimated losses expected are based on:

  • estimated exposure value at the time of default (EAD model);
  • estimated distribution of risk of default within the lifetime of the exposure (life-time PD model);
  • estimated level of loss in case of default of the client (LGD model).

Information on the adopted assumptions affecting the amount of expected losses are presented in Note 19 – Loans and advances to customers.

Non-current assets impairment

In accordance with IAS 36, the Group assesses non-current assets in terms of the existence of premises indicating their impairment. If there is such evidence, the Group estimates the asset's recoverable amount. When the carrying amount of a given asset exceeds its recoverable amount, its impairment is recognized, and a write-off is made to adjust its value to the level of its recoverable amount.

Investment financial assets

For the purposes of disclosures in accordance with IFRS 7, the Group estimates changes to measurements of debt instruments measured at fair value through other comprehensive income and derivative instruments with a linear risk profile not covered with hedge accounting assuming a parallel shift of profitability curves by 50pb. To this end, the Group constructs profitability curves on the basis of market data. The Group analyses the impact on transaction measurement of changes to profitability curves with the assumed scenarios.

Provisions for the reimbursement of commissions in the event of early repayment

The Group constantly monitors the value of the estimated amount of expected payments resulting from prepayments of consumer loans made before the judgment date of Court of Justice of the European Union ('CJEU') of 11 September 2019 in case C-383/18 (so-called Lexitor case). The basis for updating the value of the estimate is the inclusion in the calculation of the historically observed trend of the amount of loan cost reimbursements resulting from the customer complaints submitted to the Bank and taking into account the scenario of a change in the Group's approach to communication with customers as a result of the evolution of market practice or the position of the regulator.

Provision for legal risk related to the FX indexed loan portfolio

The Group estimated the costs of legal risk related to the FX indexed loan portfolio and applied the provisions of IFRS 9B.5.4.6 to its recognition - it treated this estimate as an adjustment to the gross carrying amount of the portfolio of mortgage loans indexed with foreign currencies or created provisions in accordance with the requirements of IAS 37 (where the amount of the estimated legal risk costs exceeds the gross carrying amount of the credit exposure or the amount of the estimate relates to repaid foreign currency mortgage loans or when the estimated amount relates to expected legal claims).

The costs of legal risk constituting an adjustment to the gross carrying amount were estimated taking into account a number of assumptions, including the Group's assumption of an increase in the market scale of claims, e.g. in connection with the position of the Advocate General of the CJEU published on 16 February 2023 and the judgment of the CJEU of 15 June 2023.

These costs were estimated on the basis of:

  • the pace of the inflow of disputes regarding the legal risk of mortgage loans in foreign currencies and the estimated percentage of the portfolio of FX mortgage loans that will be the subject of litigation, observed so far and forecast by the Group in future periods,
  • statistics of the value of the subject matter of the dispute in previous lawsuits,
  • the percentage of litigations lost by banks, reported by the Polish Bank Association, including the percentage of cases ended with the cancellation of the contract and the percentage of cases ended with the conversion of contracts into PLN.

Actuarial provision

Provisions for employee benefits are measured with actuarial techniques and assumptions. The calculation covers all retirement benefits potentially disbursable in the future. The provision has been established on the basis of a list of persons with all the required personal data, including seniority, age, and gender. The accrued provisions are equal to the discounted payments to be made in the future subject to staff rotation and apply to the period until the end of the reporting period.

Fair value measurement rules

The principles for the fair value measurement of derivatives and non-quoted debt securities measured at fair value are presented in Note 29 – Fair value and have not changed from the principles presented in the financial statements prepared as at 31 December 2023.

Hedge accounting

For the purposes of disclosures in accordance with IFRS 7, the Group estimates changes to measurements of the derivative instruments with a linear risk profile assuming a parallel shift of profitability curves by 50 pb. To this end, the Group constructs profitability curves on the basis of market data. The Group analyses the impact on transaction profitability of a change of profitability curves for the portfolio of derivative instruments with a linear risk profile, covered with hedge accounting.

2.2.2 Significant accounting policies

Detailed accounting policies were presented in the annual consolidated financial statements of the Alior Bank Group for the year ended 31 December 2023 published on Alior Bank's website on 28 February 2024.

2.2.3 Changes in accounting standards

In these interim condensed consolidated financial statements, the same accounting standards have been applied as in the case of annual consolidated financial statements for the year 2023 and the standards and interpretations adopted by the European Union and applicable to the annual periods starting 1 January 2024 mentioned below:

Change Impact on the Group's report

presentation of liabilities. In particular, they explain one of the criteria for
classifying a liability as long-term. The implementation of the change
havn't any impact on the financial statements of the Group.
Amendment to IFRS 16 Leases The amendment specifies the requirements that a seller-lessee is obliged
to apply when measuring the lease liability arising from a sale and
leaseback transaction so as not to recognize a gain or loss related to the
right of use that it retains.The implementation of the change havn't any
impact on the financial statements of the Group.

quantitative information on the obligations related to these
contracts at the beginning and end of the reporting period,

the type and impact of non-monetary changes in the carrying
amounts of financial liabilities arising from these contracts.
The amendments have any impact on the Group's financial statements.

Standards and interpretations that have been issued but are not yet effective because they have not been approved by the European Union or have been approved by the European Union but have not been previously applied by the Group, were presented in the annual consolidated financial statements of the Group for 2023. On 9 April 2024, the IASB issued IFRS 18 Presentation and Disclosure in Financial Statements.

Impact on the Group's report
IFRS 18 Presentation and Disclosure in Financial Statements The standard is intended to replace IAS 1 – Presentation of Financial
Statements. The new standard will be effective from 1 January 2027. The
new standard includes: the result of taking into account the voice of
investors in the work, who indicated that financial statements still do not
have a uniform form and often do not present significant information
needed to make investment decisions. In connection with the new IFRS
18 standard, changes to other standards are also planned to harmonize
disclosure requirements. The Group will analyze the impact of the
standard on the financial statements.

2.3 Changes to presentation and explanation of differences in relation to previously published financial statements

Compared to the financial statements prepared as at 31 March 2023, the Group has changed the method of presenting the costs of provisions for legal claims. After the change, the costs of provisions for legal claims are presented in the item " Other operating expenses ". Previously, the Group presented these costs in the item " General administrative expenses ". The above change had no impact on the net result.

The Act on Tax from Certain Financial Institutions of 15 January 2016 became effective on 1 February 2016 – the Act applies to banks and insurance companies. The tax accrues on the surplus of assets in excess of PLN 4 billion as detailed in trial balances as at the end of each month. Banks are entitled to reduce the taxation base by their equity, as well as the amounts of Treasury securities and assets acquired from NBP. constituting collateral for the refinancing loan granted by NBP. The tax is payable monthly (the monthly rate is 0.0366%) by the 25th day of the month following the month to which it applies and is recognised in the profit and loss account in the period to which it applies.

19 Loans and advances to customers

19.1 Accounting principles

During 2024, the Group did not change the rules and methodology for classifying loan exposures and estimating provisions for expected credit losses. The applied rules are the same as those described in the annual financial statements.

Rules for classifying exposures covered by key statutory customer support instruments

The key statutory customer support tools available, inter alia, due to the macroeconomic situation, include:

  • Borrowers Support Fund,
  • moratoriums available to customers who have lost their source of income.

Exposures covered by the Borrowers Support Fund and exposures covered by moratoriums for customers who have lost their source of income are classified by the Bank to forbearance and, consequently, to Stage 2 (unless they meet the impairment / default criteria, which would result in classification to Stage 3).

19.2 Future macroeconomic factors in the assessment of credit quality and impairment allowances estimation

The Group ensures that future macroeconomic factors are included in all significant components of the estimated credit losses. Taking into account future macroeconomic factors ensures that the current valuation of ECL reflects the expected scale of deterioration in the credit quality of the portfolio due to the tough macroeconomic environment.

The Group considers the key areas of macroeconomic risk to be:

Direct impact and effects of the war in Ukraine on the loan portfolio associated with persons who are citizens of countries involved in the war / economic entities operating in the region

The Group intensively monitors and analyzes the impact of the geopolitical situation related to the war in Ukraine on the quality of the loan portfolio.

In terms of the of the retail client segment, the share in the portfolio of clients with the citizenship of Ukrainian, Russian, Belarusian fluctuates around 1.3%. These are clients living and earning income in Poland. The Group continues intensive portfolio monitoring, but does not identify any significant threats in this respect.

In terms of the corporate customer segment, the Group identifies a portfolio exposed to the effects of escalation of military operations in Ukraine based on addresses (headquarters, correspondence, residences), information from individual monitoring, and a significant share of inflows / transfers from / to countries involved in the armed conflict. In this population, the Group identifies clients with an exposure of approximately PLN 99 million. The monitoring results indicate that the deterioration of the quality and the increase in the risk of debt servicing is insignificant.

Effects of the pandemic

Although during the pandemic, the Bank did not experience a significant deterioration in the quality of the loan portfolio, it is recognized that the effects of the pandemic - in conjunction with other global and macroeconomic challenges - may still have a negative impact on selected areas of business activity.

A complex macroeconomic environment (caused among others by the above factors) and its impact on the loan portfolio

Due to significant - unprecedented - changes in the macroeconomic environment (changes in interest rates, inflation, exchange rates, energy prices), the FLI component in the portfolio valuation is important, reflecting the Group's expectations regarding the scenario development of macroeconomic factors.

In particular, in terms of the methodology used for the PD parameter, the Group uses:

  • for the retail customer segment, econometric models making the evolution of the DR level dependent on macroeconomic factors in individual scenarios,
  • for the corporate client segment that does not keep full accounting, an econometric model forecasting the level of DR depending on macro factors,
  • for the corporate client segment maintaining full accounting, industry models enabling the simulation of the client's rating assessment, fed with current information on changes in the macroeconomic environment, taking into account the current levels of sales revenues and margin levels.

The experience of operation in an environment of rising interest rates shows that, the transmission of the rising interest rates to the deterioration of clients' debt servicing capacity was much lower than originally assumed.

Analyzing these phenomena, the Group designed a series of analyzes including:

  • assessment of the sensitivity of the PD parameter value to changes in macroeconomic scenarios,
  • verification of changes in the loss ratio/early risk measures to changes in the economic environment,
  • backtesting of the assumed values of PD parameters taking into account the FLI component at different forecast horizons.

The work resulted in a decision on the value of PD parameters adequate for the macroeconomic scenarios adopted by the Group.

In the area of the LGD parameter, a solution is used that makes the level of healing dependent on the dynamics of changes in macroeconomic factors such as Gross Domestic Product and inflation (the scope and sensitivity to a given factor were adjusted depending on the model segment).

As regards the collateral included in the valuation of credit exposure impairment, the Group takes into account the risk of negative future macroeconomic factors affecting the collateral value and applies an additional haircut over the current market valuations and estimated recovery rates reflecting the economic recoverability of collateral.

As at 31 March 2024, the effects of the high interest rate environment and the war in Ukraine had no significant impact on the deterioration of the quality of loan portfolios. In the FLI component, the Group takes into account the expected development trajectory of the above phenomena and the target impact on the quality of the portfolio. At the same time, the Group considers the risk of uncertainty and volatility in both phenomena to be significant.

19.3 Quality and structure of the loan portfolio Key credit portfolio quality indicators as at 31 March 2023

As at 31 March 2024, despite the negative macroeconomic environment and geopolitical situation, the Group did not observe a significant negative impact on the quality of the loan portfolio. The share of 30-day overdue loans in the regular portfolio as at 31 March 2024 was 0.43% compared to 0.47 % as at 31 December 2023.

In the Group's opinion, this situation is largely due to:

  • insignificant, negative transmission of the increased interest rates on the debt servicing capacity of the Bank's clients,
  • insignificant impact on the quality of the loan portfolio of the armed conflict in Ukraine,
  • the scale of support clients receive in terms of payment moratoriums and the borrowers' support fund.

The Group adapts its lending policies and processes to the current macroeconomic situation and the resulting threats (both in terms of adapting the lending policy and processes to the pandemic environment, high interest rate environment and the geopolitical and economic effects of the war in Ukraine). The changes are aimed at supporting customers (including in the scope of business activities conducted by corporate customers) while at the same time focusing on minimizing the Group's credit losses.

Thanks to all the above circumstances and actions, the quality of the loan portfolio has so far remained resilient to the effects of the current macroeconomic and geopolitical environment.

As at 31 March 2024, the level of write-downs for exposures classified to Stage 1 and Stage 2 is approx. PLN 1.1 billion and remains stable compared to the level maintained as at 31 December 2023. The key credit parameters of the regular portfolio are presented below (non-default):

Sensitivity of results to variability of assumptions

The Group assumes 3 scenarios of the future macroeconomic situation:

  • base, with a probability of implementation of 50% (where the GDP growth rate at the end of the following years in the period 2024-2025 is 3.3% y/y and 4.1% y/y, respectively, and the NBP base rate is 5.00% and 4, respectively, 25%),
  • negative, with a probability of implementation of 25% (where the GDP growth rate at the end of the following years in the period 2024-2025 is 0.8% y/y and 2.0%, respectively, and the NBP base rate is 7.0% and 5.5%, respectively %),
  • optimistic, with a probability of implementation of 25% (where the GDP growth rate at the end of the following years in the period 2024-2025 is 5.1% y/y and 5.0%, respectively, and the NBP base rate is 3.0% and 3.0%, respectively %).

29 Fair value

29.1 Accounting principles and estimates and assumptions

The fair value is a price receivable in the sale of an asset or payable for transfer of a liability in an arm's length transaction in the principal (or most advantageous) market as at the measurement date subject to

prevailing market conditions (exit price), irrespective of the fact if such price is directly observable or estimated with another measurement technique.

Depending on the classification category of financial assets and liabilities to a specific hierarchy level, various methods to measure fair value are applied.

Level 1: On the basis of prices quoted in the principal (or most advantageous) market

Financial assets and liabilities with fair value measured directly on the basis of quoted prices (not adjusted) from active markets for identical assets or liabilities. This category includes financial and equity instruments measured at fair value through profit and loss for which there is an active market and for which the fair value is determined on the basis of market value being the purchase price:

  • debt securities listed on active, liquid financial markets,
  • debt and equity securities traded in a regulated market, including in the portfolio of the Brokerage House,
  • derivative instruments that are traded in a regulated market.

Level 2: On the basis of measurement techniques based on assumptions using information coming from the principal (or most advantageous) market;

Financial assets and liabilities whose fair value is measured with measurement models where all material input data is observable in the market directly (as prices) or indirectly (relying on prices). In that category the Group classifies financial instruments for which no active market exists:

Level 3: For which minimum one factor affecting the price is not observable in the market.

Financial assets and liabilities with the fair value measured with the measurement models where input data is not based on observable market data (non-observable input data).

Such instruments include options embedded in certificates of deposit issued by the Group and options in the interbank market to hedge positions of the embedded options. The fair value is determined on the basis of market prices of those options or an internal model subject to both observable parameters (e.g. price of the base instrument, secondary quotations of options) and non-observable (e.g. variability, correlations between base instruments in options based on a basket). Model parameters are determined on the basis of a statistical analysis. At the end of the reporting period, the position in the above-mentioned instruments was closed on back-to-back basis, which means that the change in valuation of options embedded in structured instruments is offset by changes in the valuation of options concluded on the interbank market.

* the evaluation includes future credit vacation - details in note 39

For many instruments. market values are not available; therefore, the fair value is estimated with a number of measurement techniques. Measurement of the fair value of financial instruments has been made with a model based on estimates of the present value of future cash flows by discounting cash flows at appropriate discount rates.

All model calculations contain certain simplifications and are sensitive to the underlying assumptions. Below there is a summary of core methods and assumptions used to estimate the fair value of financial instruments that are not measured at fair value.

Loans and advances to customers:

In the method applied by the Group to calculate the fair value of receivables from customers (without overdraft facilities), the Group compares the margins generated on newly granted loans (in the month preceding the reporting date) with the margin on the total loan portfolio. If the margins on newly granted loans are higher than the margins on the portfolio, the fair value of the loan is lower than its carrying value. In the opposite situation, i.e. if the margins on newly granted loans are lower than the margins on the existing portfolio, the fair value of the loans is higher than their carrying value.

Loans and advances to customers were fully classified to level 3 of the fair value hierarchy due to the application of a measurement model with material non-observable input data or current margins generated on newly granted loans.

Financial liabilities measured at amortised cost

The Group assumes that the fair value of customer and bank deposits and other financial liabilities maturing within 1 year is approximately equal to their carrying value. Deposits are accepted on a daily basis and thus their terms and conditions are similar to the prevailing market terms and conditions of identical transactions. The maturities of those items are short and therefore there is no major difference between the carrying value and fair value.

For disclosure purposes, the Group determines the fair value of financial liabilities with residual maturities (or repricing of the variable rate) in excess of 1 year. That group of liabilities includes the own issues and subordinated loans. Determining the fair value of that group of liabilities, the Group determines the present value on anticipated payments on the basis of present percentage curves and the original spread of the issue.

Other financial assets and liabilities

For other financial instruments, the Bank assumes that the carrying value is close to fair value. This applies to the following items: cash and cash equivalents, assets available for sale, other financial assets, and other financial liabilities.

32 Legal claims

In the Bank's opinion, no single court, arbitration court or public administration body proceedings in progress during the first quarter of 2024, and none of the proceedings jointly, could pose a threat to the Bank's financial liquidity. The proceedings which according to the opinion of the Management Board are significant are presented below.

Cases related to the distribution of certificates of participation in investment funds

The Bank, as part of its activities as part of a separate organizational unit - Biuro Maklerskie Alior Bank SA, in the years 2012 - 2016 conducted activities in the field of distribution of certificates of participation in investment funds: Inwestycje Rolne Fundusz Inwestycyjny Zamknięty Aktywów Niepublicznych, Inwestycje Selektywne Fundusz Inwestycyjny Zamknięty Aktywów Niepublicznych, Lasy Polskie Fundusz Inwestycyjny Zamknięty Aktywów Niepublicznych and Vivante Fundusz Inwestycyjny Zamknięty Aktywów Niepublicznych (hereinafter collectively referred to as "Funds"). The bank distributed over 250 thousand investment certificates of the Funds.

On 21 November 2017, the Polish Financial Supervision Authority ("PFSA") issued a decision to withdraw the permit to operate by FinCrea TFI SA, which is the managing body of the Funds. The Polish Financial Supervision Authority justified the issuance of a decision found in the course of administrative proceedings for gross violations of the provisions of the Act on investment funds and management of alternative investment funds. The decision was immediately enforceable. No society has decided to take over the management of the Funds, which, pursuant to Art. 68 sec. 2 in connection with joke. 246 paragraph. 1 point 2 of the Act on Investment Funds and Management of Alternative Investment Funds was the reason for the dissolution of the Funds. The dissolution of an investment fund takes place after liquidation.

The Funds are currently being liquidated by the custodian, Raiffeisen Bank International AG, based in Vienna. The liquidation of an investment fund consists in selling its assets, collecting the fund's receivables, satisfying the fund's creditors and redeeming participation units or investment certificates by paying the funds obtained to fund participants, in proportion to the number of participation units or investment certificates they have (Article 249 (1) of the Act. on investment funds and management of alternative investment funds). From the day of commencement of liquidation, the investment fund may not sell units or issue investment certificates, as well as buy back participation units or redeem investment certificates and pay out the fund's income or revenues (Article 246 (3) of the aforementioned Act).

Claims for payment

As at 31.04.2024, the Bank is defendant in 167 cases brought by the buyers of the Fund's investment certificates for payment (compensation for damage). The total value of the dispute in these cases is PLN 55.7 million.

In the Bank's opinion, each claims for payment requires an individual approach. The final value of the investment certificates of the Funds will be determined after the completion of the liquidation. However, the Bank conducted a thorough analysis, selected cases and singled out those with specific risk factors, which the Bank took into account in its approach to the provision created on this account. In the calculation of the provision, the Bank also took into account the possible increase in the scale of lawsuits. The total amount of the provision as at 31 March 2024 amounted PLN 83.1 million.

Liability claims

The Bank is the defendant in 1 collective action brought by a natural person - a representative of a group of 320 natural and legal persons, for determination of the Bank's liability for damage and in 4 individual cases for establishing the Bank's liability for damage.

The class action was filed on 5 March 2018 against the Bank to determine the Bank's liability for damage caused by the Bank's improper performance of disclosure obligations towards customers and the improper performance of contracts for the provision of services for accepting and transmitting orders to purchase or sell Fund investment certificates. The court decided to hear the case in group proceedings.

On 8 March 2023, the District Court in Warsaw issued a decision to determine the composition of the group. As at the date of this report, this decision is invalid. The value of the subject of the extended claim amounts to approx. PLN 103.9 million.

The lawsuits were filed to establish liability (not for payment, i.e. compensation for damage), therefore the Bank does not anticipate any outflow of cash from these proceedings, other than litigation costs, the amount of which the Bank estimates at PLN 600 thousand.

In accordance with IAS 37, the Group each time assesses whether a past event gave rise to a present obligation. In legal claims, the Group additionally uses expert opinions. If, based on expert judgment and taking into account all circumstances, the Group assesses that the existence of a present obligation as at the balance sheet date is more likely than not and the Group is able to reliably estimate the amount of the obligation in this respect, then it creates a provision. As at 31 March 2024, the Group created provisions for legal claims brought against the Group's entities, which, according to the legal opinion, involve the risk of outflow of funds due to fulfillment of the obligation in the amount of PLN 164 557 thousand and as at 31 December 2023 in the amount of PLN 157 197 thousand

33 Contigent liability

The Group presents below a description of the most important proceedings conducted against the Group as of 31 March 2024, which constitute contingent liabilities.

The total value of the subject matter of the disputed claims as at 31 March 2024 in court proceedings conducted against the Group is PLN 661 873 thousand and as at 31 December 2023, PLN 624 602 thousand.

Case claimed by a client

Case claimed by a limited company for a payment of PLN 109 967 thousand in respect of compensation for damage incurred in connection with the conclusion and settlement of treasury transactions. The claim dated 27 April 2017 was brouhgt against Alior Bank SA and Bank BPH SA. In the Bank's opinion, the claim has no valid factual and legal basis therefore, the Bank did not create a provision as at 31 March 2024.

Proceedings before the President of the Office of Competition and Consumer Protection (UOKiK)

Proceeding on provisions of recognizing a standard contract as illegal, the so-called modification clauses

On 27 September 2019, the President of the Office of Competition and Consumer Protection (UOKiK) initiated ex officio proceeding against Alior Bank SA to recognize a standard contract as illegal (reference number RPZ.611.4.2019.PG) the subject of which is 11 clauses (the so-called modification clauses) included in contract templates used by the Bank, on the basis of which the Bank made unilateral changes to contracts concluded with consumers. The President of UOKiK questioned the wording of the provisions in question, among others as imprecise and not allowing consumers to verify the occurrence of premises for the change being made. The Bank corresponds with the President of the Office of Competition and Consumer Protection in this case. The Bank presented to the Office of Competition and Consumer Protection a plan to remove the ongoing effects of the breach from contracts with customers. In a letter dated 20 March 2024, the Bank presented the Office of Competition and Consumer Protection with a proposal for the new content of modification clauses. As at 31 March 2024, the Group did not identify any reasons to create a provision because, in the Group's opinion, an outflow of cash in this respect is unlikely. At the same time,

the Group is unable to make a reliable estimate of the value of the contingent liability in this respect due to the inability to estimate the potential consequences of the violation and the amount of the potential penalty that may be imposed by the Office of Competition and Consumer Protection. The maximum amount of the financial penalty is 10% of the Bank's turnover achieved in the financial year preceding the year in which the penalty was imposed.

Proceeding regarding practices violating the collective interests of consumers regarding unauthorized payment transactions

On 13 February 2024, the President of the Office of Competition and Consumer Protection initiated proceedings against the Bank regarding practices violating the collective interests of consumers (reference number: RWR.610.3.2024.KŚ) consisting of:

  • failure after the consumer reports the transaction as unauthorized to refund the amount of the unauthorized payment transaction or restore the debited payment account to the state that would have existed if the unauthorized payment transaction had not taken place in the manner and within the time limit specified in art. 46 section 1 of the Act on Payment Services, despite the absence of any grounds entitling the Bank not to perform the above-mentioned. activities,
  • making a conditional refund to a consumer who is a client of the Bank of the payment transaction amount reported by the consumer as unauthorized, only for the time the Bank considers the complaint, and then, if the Bank finds in the complaint procedure that the transaction was authorized by the consumer or, that the consumer is liable for an unauthorized payment transaction, withdrawing a conditional refund and withdrawing this amount from the consumer's savings and current account or credit card account, excluding situations in which this amount was simultaneously returned to the consumer as part of a chargeback or the consumer withdrawn the claim,
  • providing consumers in responses to their reports regarding the occurrence of unauthorized payment transactions - with information about the correct authorization of the transaction, which was confirmed only after the payment service provider verified the correct use of the payment instrument, by using individual authentication data in a way that suggests that the Bank's demonstration that correct authentication has occurred excludes the Bank's obligation to refund the amount of the unauthorized transaction, which may mislead consumers regarding the Bank's obligations under art. 46 section 1 of the Payment Services Act, as well as regarding the distribution of the burden of proving that the payment transaction has been authorized,
  • providing consumers in responses to their reports regarding unauthorized payment transactions with information about the correct authentication of the transaction by the user and the Bank's lack of responsibility for its execution, as it occurred as a result of the consumer's breach of the terms of the contract with the Bank, which may mislead consumers into error regarding the Bank's obligations under art. 46 section 1 of the Payment Services Act, including the distribution of the burden of proof to the extent that the Bank should demonstrate that the consumer led to the disputed transaction as a result of an intentional or grossly negligent breach of at least one of the obligations referred to in art. 42 of the Payment Services Act,
  • providing consumers in responses to their reports regarding the occurrence of unauthorized payment transactions - with information about the inability to consider card transactions reported after 120 days from the date of the transaction as unauthorized payment transactions and the inability to complain about more than 15 transactions,

  • which, in the opinion of the President of the Office of Competition and Consumer Protection, may harm the collective interests of consumers and, consequently, constitute practices violating the collective interests of consumers referred to in the Act on Competition and Consumer Protection.

Proceedings regarding practices violating collective consumer interests are currently pending against 15 banks whose practices were verified in explanatory proceedings similar to those conducted against the Bank.

The allegations of the Office of Competition and Consumer Protection raise doubts in the entire banking sector as to their compliance with European law. The provisions of the Payment Services Act, which the Office of Competition and Consumer Protection refers to in the context of these allegations, do not, in the Bank's opinion, fully reflect the directive implemented therein. This resulted in numerous submissions to the President of the Office of Competition and Consumer Protection from the Polish Bank Association. In a letter of 29 March 2024, the Bank responded to the allegations of the President of the Office of Competition and Consumer Protection.

As at 31 March 2024 the value of complaints related to unauthorized transactions is PLN 48 million. The maximum amount of the financial penalty is 10% of the Bank's turnover achieved in the financial year preceding the year in which the penalty was imposed.

As at 31 Match 2024, the Group did not identify any reasons to create provisions in this respect.

Polish Financial Supervision Authority proceedings

Proceedings regarding insurance distribution

On 6 July 2021, the Polish Financial Supervision Authority initiated administrative proceedings regarding the application of the sanction measure specified in art. 84 section 1-2 of the Act of insurance distribution dated on 15 December 2017 in connection with the identification of irregularities indicating a violation by Alior Bank SA of art. 7 section 1 in connection with art. 4 section 6 of this Act, i.e. in the scope of determining the customer's requirements and needs in the process of offering insurance contracts in the period from 1 October 2018 to 26 October 2021. The Bank took a number of actions regarding the area of the Bank's activities as an insurance distributor, the aim of which was removal of irregularities questioned by the Polish Financial Supervision Authority, and also implemented solutions aimed at preventing violations of the law in this area in the future. Moreover, the Bank asked the Polish Financial Supervision Authority to apply the administrative institution provided for in art. 189f §1 point 1 of the Code of Administrative Procedure (issuing a decision waiving the imposition of a penalty and issuing a warning to Alior Bank). On 1 March 2024, the Bank submitted an application to conclude an arrangement including waiving the imposition of sanctions or, alternatively, reducing the potential fine by 90%, i.e. the Bank asked the Polish Financial Supervision Authority to issue the decision referred to in art. 18k section 1 of the act of financial market supervision dated on 21 July 2006. On 22 March 2024, the Polish Financial Supervision Authority issued a decision on the possibility of concluding an agreement on the conditions for extraordinary relaxation of sanctions and set a deadline of 3 months for concluding this agreement. Currently, Alior Bank SA is in dialogue to work out the terms of the above-mentioned arrangement.

The Group is unable to make a reliable estimate of the value of the contingent liability in this respect due to the inability to estimate the potential consequences of the violation and the amount of the potential penalty that may be imposed by the Polish Financial Supervision Authority. If the Polish Financial Supervision Authority issues a decision imposing a fine on the Bank, it is difficult to determine its probable amount due to the lack of practice in this area. Pursuant to art. 84 section 1 of the Act of insurance distribution dated on 15 December 2017, the Polish Financial Supervision Authority may impose a fine in the amount not exceeding:

  • a) PLN 21 827 500 or
  • b) 5% of the annual net revenues from the sale of goods and services and from financial operations, disclosed in the last financial report for the financial year, approved by the approval body of the insurance distributor, or
  • c) twice the amount of profits obtained or losses avoided as a result of the infringement, if they can be determined.

As at 31 March 2024, the Group did not identify any reasons to create provisions in this respect.

Affairs related to the operation of Alior Bank SA's subsidiaries

On 26 June 2019, to Alior Leasing sp. z o.o. a class action was filed for severance pay, filed by four former members of the company's Management Board who were dismissed by the Supervisory Board on 20 December 2018. The amount of the claimed claim is PLN 645 thousand. On 14 March 2022, the Court of Appeal in Wrocław changed the appealed judgment of the District Court in Wrocław of 11 August 2021 and ordered Alior Leasing to pay the plaintiffs the amount of the claimed claim together with interest for delay from 3 January 2019 to the day of payment. On 12 July 2022, the company filed a cassation appeal to the Court of Appeal in Wrocław, challenging the judgment issued by that court.

In December 2021, the Bank and the leasing company received another (new) summons from the former members of the Management Board of Alior Leasing to an ad hoc arbitration court under the management program; the summons was based on the same factual and legal circumstances as the previous ones. On 1 March 2024, the Bank received a partial award in an ad hoc arbitration case between former members of the Management Board of Alior Leasing and the Bank and the leasing company, dismissing claims under the management program in full. The partial judgment ends the substantive proceedings.

Alior Leasing sp. z o.o identifies the possibility of claims by external entities in connection with the activities of some former employees and associates of the company. As at the date of this financial statements, claims in this respect were not reported. In the Group's opinion, there are no circumstances justifying the creation of a provision on this account.

The Group will not reveal further information regarding the above-indicated possible claims, in order not to weaken his future position in a potential dispute or administrative proceeding.

34 Total capital adequacy ratio and Tier 1 ratio

As at 31 March 2024, total capital adequacy ratio and Tier 1 ratio were calculated in accordance with the 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 (CRR Regulation) and other regulations implementing "national options", among other, the Banking Act of 29 August 1997 (as amended) and Regulation of the Minister of Development and Finance of 25 May 2017 on a higher risk weight for exposures secured by mortgages on real estate (as amended).

In order to calculate the capital adequacy ratio, in first quarter of 2024 prudential consolidation was applied – the consolidation covered Alior Bank SA and Alior Leasing sp. z o.o. In the opinion of the Bank's Management Board, the other subsidiary entities, not subject to prudential consolidation are marginal for the Bank's core activity from the viewpoint of monitoring of credit institutions.

Risk management supports Bank's strategy and proper level of business profitability and safety of activities while assuring control of the risk level and its maintenance within the accepted risk appetite and limit system in the changing macroeconomic and legal environment. The supreme objective of the risk management policy is to ensure early detection and adequate management of all kinds of risk inherent to the pursued activity.

The Group isolated the following types of risks resulting from the operations conducted:

  • market risk including interest rate risk and the FX risk
  • liquidity risk
  • credit risk
  • operational risk

The detailed risk management policies have been presented in the annual consolidated financial statements of the Alior Bank SA Group for the year ended 31 December 2022 published on 3 March 2023 and available on the Alior Bank SA website.

In connection with the application of the advanced operational risk measurement method (AMA), in accordance with the requirements of CRR Article 454, the Bank, seeking to limit the risk of materializing the effects of rare but potentially severe operational events, has bought a number of insurance policies. Mentioned policies included insurance in the scope of property (including electronic equipment), civil liability, fiscal liability and professional liability.

The terms of individual policies were adapted to the scale and scope of the risk incurred. Those policies are not used as a mechanism limiting the amount of own funds requirements for operational risk or as a mitigating factor for the amount of internal capital for operational risk.

38 Events significant to the business operations of the Group

Decision on early redemption of bonds by Alior Bank

On 10 January 2024, the Bank's Management Board adopted resolutions on the early redemption of its own bonds: series P1B issued on 29 April 2016, and series F issued on 26 September 2014, the final redemption date of which was respectively on 16 May 2024 and on 26 September 2024. Early redemption of the abovementioned bonds took place on 30 January 2024.

Assessment of the impact of the IBOR reform on the Bank's situation

As at 1 January 2018, a new standard for the provision of benchmarks applies in the European Union, the legal basis of which is Regulation (EU) 2016/1011 of the European Parliament and of the Council on indices used as benchmarks in financial instruments and financial contracts or for measuring the performance of investment funds (hereinafter: BMR regulation, IBOR reform). The main goal of the EU bodies during the work on the IBOR reform was the need to increase consumer protection. In accordance with the IBOR reform, all benchmarks that are the basis for determining interest on loans or the interest rate for various financial instruments must be calculated and applied according to strictly defined rules, so as to avoid suspicion of any fraud. The benchmark according to the IBOR reform, in particular:

  • is to be based primarily on transaction data,
  • is to faithfully reflect the underlying market, the measurement of which is the purpose of the indicator,
  • is to be verifiable by the administrator,
  • is to be resistant to manipulation,
  • it is to be transparent for the recipients of benchmarks.

The Group has undertaken and implemented a number of activities to implement IBOR, i.e .:

  • the contingency plan was amended, which in particular includes a scheme of actions in the event of a significant change or discontinuation of the development of a given benchmark and a list of benchmarks used with their alternatives,
  • priorities for annexing contracts to replace expired indicators were adopted,
  • templates of annexes were prepared and introduced for contracts to which the IBOR relates,
  • the process of annexing the contracts was carried out,
  • an information and reminding campaign aimed at clients was conducted,
  • employee training in the field of IBOR was conducted,
  • the first OIS transactions based on new reference indicators (ESTR, SOFR) were concluded.

The Group monitors the activities of regulators and benchmark administrators, both at the national, European and global level, in terms of benchmarks. The Bank is involved in the work of the National Working Group for WIBOR reform.

In connection with the IBOR reform, the Bank is exposed to the following types of risk:

Legal events

In particular, this applies to the possibility of questioning the applicable provisions in the client's contract with the Bank and the lack of agreement on the application of fallback provisions regarding benchmarks. Fallback clauses define the action plan that the Bank intends to launch in the event of discontinuation of publication or a significant change in the benchmark.

The reason for questioning the contractual provisions may be, in particular, the difference between the values of the benchmarks. The Bank manages the risks resulting from the IBOR reform by actively annexing the agreements with the Bank's customers. The difference in the levels of reference ratios is mitigated by the bank by applying appropriate adjustment adjustments, eliminating the economic impact of changing the ratio on the contract with the customer.

Interest rate risk

It relates to the mismatch of benchmarks between assets, liabilities and derivatives. The Bank manages these risks using the same solutions in individual products, leading to the greatest possible methodological convergence between them.

Additionally, the interest rate risk may materialize, especially with regard to the LIBOR EUR rate, in the form of unsuccessful annexes to contracts with customers. As a result, the rate in the customer contract from the last day of LIBOR EUR validity, from the last revaluation date or at zero is maintained. The Bank reduces this risk by actively encouraging clients to add amendments to their contracts and as part of the ongoing management of exposure to interest rate risk in the banking book.

As at 31 March 2024, the IBOR reform in relation to the currencies to which the Bank has exposures was largely completed; in the sense that, apart from the continuation of the annexation processes, no additional activities are envisaged. It should also be taken into account that for objective reasons (each client would have to agree to the annex), it will never be possible to annex every contract covered by this process. The table below presents the status of transition to new benchmarks according to the IBOR reform.

*On 23 November 2022, the FCA (Financial Conduct Authority - British supervisory authority) launched public consultations on, among others, future of USD LIBOR. The USD LIBOR for 1M, 3M and 6M tenors will be published after 30 June, 2023 in a synthetic form, until 30 September 2024.

All new contracts concluded after 31 December 2021 contain appropriate fallback clauses, mitigating the risk related to the discontinuation of publication of benchmarks.

Benchmarks compliant with the BMR are benchmarks that have been approved by the relevant entity defined under the BMR (ESMA register - European Securities and Markets Authority https://www.esma.europa.eu/policy-rules/benchmarks).

As at 31 December 2021, the publication of LIBOR EUR, LIBOR CHF and LIBOR GBP (for most tenors) was suspended.

GBP LIBOR synthetic indices will be published by the end of March 2024, allowing for a smooth transition to SONIA-based indices. In terms of the synthetic LIBOR USD indicator, the indicator will be published until the end of September 2024.As regards the substitute for CHF LIBOR, the Bank relies on the Implementing Regulation of the European Commission of 14 October 2021, according to which the replacement for CHF LIBOR are appropriately constructed indicators based on the SARON index.

WIBOR (https://gpwbenchmark.pl/dokumentacja) and EURIBOR (https://www.emmibenchmarks.eu/benchmarks/euribor/) are compliant with the BMR Regulation, the Bank will annex contracts based on the WIBOR index due to the need to include fallback clauses in the contracts.

The Steering Committee of the National Working Group (SC NWG), established in connection with the planned reform of benchmarks choose the WIRON index as an alternative reference rate indicator, whose input data is information representing ON (overnight) transactions. The administrator of WIRON within the meaning of the BMR Regulation is GPW Benchmark, entered in the register of the European Securities and Markets Authority (ESMA).

The next step of SC NWG was the adoption of the so-called a road map specifying the schedule of activities aimed at replacing the WIBOR reference indicator with the WIRON indicator. From December 2022 WIRON can be used on the Polish market in new financial instruments. The Steering Committee of the National Working Group for the Reform of Reference Indicators has postponed the deadline for converting existing contracts and instruments using WIBOR to the new WIRON index until the end of 2027.

On 11 April 2024, the Ministry of Finance asked the members of the Steering Committee to re-conduct the review and analysis of alternative indicators for WIBOR, taking into account both WIRON and other possible indicators. Due to the above, changes to the roadmap for transitioning to the new indicator are possible. Work on the reform will continue until the process of replacing the WIBOR index with a new RFR-type reference index is completed in the most effective and safe manner.

39 Significant events after the end of the reporting period

New credit vacation

On 12 April 2024, the Sejm passed the regulations on credit vacation in 2024. The regulations will most likely come into force on 1 June 2024. The amendment to the Act provides that only persons with a mortgage loan in PLN for a maximum amount of PLN 1.2 million can apply for suspension of installments. You will be able to take vacation twice in the period from 1 June to 31 August and twice in the period from 1 September to 31 December. The income criterion is also important. You will be able to take advantage of credit vacation if the installment exceeds 30% household income, calculated as the average for the previous three months or if the borrower has at least three children to support (as of the date of submitting the application).

Apart from those described in the content of the report and the event mentioned above, no other significant events occurred after the end of the reporting period.

40 Financial forecast

The Alior Bank SA Group did not publish any forecasts of its results.

41 Factors which could have an impact on the results in the perspective of the following quarter of the year

The ongoing armed conflict in Ukraine in the context of geopolitical tensions and volatility in financial markets remains one of the most important uncertainty factors in the coming periods. However, last year the armed conflict in Ukraine did not escalate and extreme scenarios regarding military operations did not materialize, which is why financial markets did not experience any increased effects of the war in Ukraine. Although over the last few months the situation has changed to a slightly more unfavorable one for Ukraine. Economically, the main effects of the war relate to trade disruptions related to both the conflict itself and the sanctions imposed. Another element is the stability of the energy system, especially in relation to the European Union and Poland, which on the one hand depend on the supply of raw materials such as oil and gas. On the other hand, the share of imports of these raw materials from Russia systematically decreased in 2023. It is also worth emphasizing the issue of security in the region. As a result, the risks related to the war in Ukraine for the global and domestic economy materialized to the greatest extent through a significant acceleration of inflation due to more expensive raw materials, food and disruptions in supply chains. The

consequence was increased prices of energy raw materials in 2022. In 2023, their prices decreased, but remained at historically increased levels. The above-mentioned factors may still be important in 2024, especially in the context of a significant reduction in supplies of energy raw materials from Russia to the European Union, reduction of oil supply by OPEC+ countries and escalation of geopolitical tensions in the Middle East (the effect of attacks by Yemen's Houthi rebels, supported by Iran, on container ships sailing towards Israel in the Red Sea and the increase in tensions between the Iran-Israel conflict).

Despite the inhibition of inflation, it remains at an elevated level in developed countries (above the inflation target), and bringing it into line with the goals of central banks will be a long-term process. This determines monetary policy in many countries, including the United States and the euro zone, and leads to relatively high interest rates for a longer period of time. This makes the risks of prolonged low global economic activity persist. The first interest rate cuts by the Fed and the ECB are announced and expected in June this year at the earliest, but the pace of reductions may be slow. In Poland, among others The faster-than-expected pace of inflation decline gave the green light to the Monetary Policy Council (MPC) to start the monetary policy easing cycle in 2023. In September, interest rates in Poland were reduced by 0.75 percentage points, including the reference rate to 6.00%. In October 2023, inflation was already single-digit, and the Monetary Policy Council reduced interest rates by 0.25 percentage points. In March 2024, the CPI inflation rate was 2.0% y/y and this was the second month in a row within the fluctuation range for the NBP inflation target (2.5% +/- 1 p.p.). However, a rebound in inflation and economic conditions is widely expected later in the year, and the Monetary Policy Council announces stabilization of rates. As a result, the domestic economy will continue to face elevated inflation and increased debt costs in 2024. In the coming months, CPI inflation should remain within the inflation target, and its growth will be driven by the restoration of VAT rates on food from April 2024. Moreover, from the middle of the year, the government plans to partially unfreeze the prices of energy carriers, especially electricity, which will further increase the dynamics of consumer prices.

For the banking sector, on the one hand, the prolongation of the period of increased inflation and interest rates in Poland may still have a negative impact on the valuation of assets held on the balance sheet. On the other hand, the current rhetoric of the Monetary Policy Council members indicates that interest rates will most likely remain unchanged until the end of 2024, which will support maintaining a high interest income of the banking sector for the second year in a row. The credit policy of banks may hamper the growth in demand for loans in 2024. We assume that it will remain unchanged (tightened) or slightly relaxed in 2024 due to the improvement of the macroeconomic situation in 2024, which should have a positive impact on the demand for credit. This will also be strengthened by the new version of the "Safe 2% Credit" (BK2) program in the form of the "Mieszkanie na start" program and investments related to the "National Reconstruction Plan" (KPO). The entry into force of the BK2 program in the second half of 2023 increased lending in the housing loan segment. Currently, the government is working on the "Mieszkanie na start" program, which would support borrowers and may also support demand for consumer loans as part of the purchase of durable goods. According to the draft act of the Ministry of Development and Technology, the program is to be launched in the third quarter of 2024. The improvement in the economic situation, together with the still relatively good situation on the labor market and the recovery of the purchasing power of households (positive dynamics of real wages) will contribute to the improvement of the condition of borrowers and a decrease in credit risk.

Legal risks related to FX mortgage loans remain a challenge in the banking sector. The CJEU judgment regarding remuneration for the use of capital in invalidated loans indexed in foreign currencies was unfavorable for the banking sector. In mid-June 2023, the opinion of the CJEU Advocate General from February 2023 was upheld. On the one hand, as a result, the banking sector was burdened with establishing further provisions for legal risk, which contributed to the weakening of banks' capital positions. On the other hand, the banking sector was prepared for such a judgment and remained stable and resistant to its effects, although, in the opinion of the Polish Financial Supervision Authority, the judgment had a negative impact on the banks' ability to finance the economy. Recent judgments of the CJEU, in particular those from

September and December 2023, where the tribunal indicated that the consumer does not have to submit a declaration on the consequences of the invalidity of the contract, should accelerate court proceedings regarding Swiss franc loans. Court cases brought by a client take on average 24-26 months to obtain a final judgment. 2024 promises to be a record year in terms of the number of judgments, there may be several dozen percent more than in 2023. The case law has already become quite clear, unfortunately in a very unfavorable direction for banks. Only less than 3% of cases are won by banks.

After the symptoms of the banking sector crisis in the second quarter of 2023 in the United States and, to a lesser extent, in Europe, given the easing of monetary policy in the United States and the euro zone announced for mid-2024, the risk of financial sector instability should decrease. The situation is monitored on an ongoing basis by central banks. According to the assurances of European central bankers and supervisory authorities, the financial system in Europe is more stable than in the United States.
