(1) P&L is restated on IFRS 17. Small impacts mainly in NII, associates and other revenues.

Main quarterly variations

Revenues & OPEX:

  • NII: Loan book and securities repricing more than offset increase in funding costs
  • Fee income: Remains very resilient supported by recurrent fees coming from core business
  • Associates & dividends: Seasonally strong quarter on the back of dividends from CASER and oppidum (EDP) stakes
  • Other revenues: SRF contribution accounts for €44m, €20m higher than 2022 explained by the merger process
  • Opex under control. Personnel costs slightly higher on the back of variable payments

Cost of risk and provisions:

  • Cost of risk: 30 basis points in the quarter, remains very contained
  • Other provisions: In line with expectations

B Fixed income portfolio:

Average yield improves from 2.13% to 2.35% on the back of bonds at floating or hedged

C Wholesale funding:

  • Interbank: Negative impact from TLTRO offset by higher liquidity position and improved ECB remuneration
  • Wholesale funding: Impact from repricing and full quarter from latest MREL issuance

Accordingly, undue reliance should not be placed on any of the industry, market or Unicaja Banco's competitive position data contained in the Presentation.

This Presentation includes accounts and estimations issued by the management, which may have not been audited by the Company's auditors. In addition, this document includes certain Alternative Performance Measures (APMs) as defined in the guidelines on Alternative Performance Measures published by the European Securities and Markets Authority on 5 October 2015 (ESMA/2015/1415es) (the ESMA guidelines). This report uses certain APMs, which are performance measures that have been calculated using the financial information from Unicaja Banco and its affiliates but that are not defined or detailed in the applicable financial framework and therefore have neither been audited nor are capable of being completely audited. These APMs are aimed to enable a better understanding of Unicaja Banco's and its affiliates' financial performance but should be considered only as additional disclosures and in no case as a replacement of the financial information prepared under International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS). Moreover, the way the Unicaja Banco defines and calculates these measures may differ to the way these are calculated by other companies, and therefore they may not be comparable. Please refer to Unicaja Banco's past and future filings and reports including those with CNMV and available to the public both in Unicaja Banco's website (https://www.unicajabanco.com/es/inversores-y-accionistas/informacion-economicofinanciera/informes-financieros) and in the CNMV's website (https://www.cnmv.es) for further details of the APMs used, including its definition or a reconciliation between any applicable management indicators and the financial data presented in the consolidated financial statements prepared under IFRS. In any case, the financial information included in this Presentation has not been reviewed to the extent of its accuracy and completeness and, therefore, neither such financial information nor the APMs shall be relied upon.
