1) Basis swaps are derivative contracts entered into by the bank when issuing senior bonds or raising other long-term funding in the international capital markets and converting the relevant currency to Norwegian kroner. The Norwegian bond market is very small and illiquid, which means that there is a great need for international funding hedged by such instruments. In periods of financial market turbulence, there will be stronger demand for "secure" currencies such as the US dollar. Thus, prices will increase for swaps where USD will be supplied on a future date. When prices of new swap contracts increase, such as in the first quarter of 2015, so will the market value of existing swap contracts. This will give an increase in recorded income. However, such changes in value recorded in a quarter will be reversed in subsequent quarters, either because the market is stabilising or because the maturity date of the derivative contract is approaching.

2) Impairment of systems development in the Baltics totalling NOK 500 million and impairment losses for goodwill of NOK 57 million relating to JSC DNB Bank were recorded in the fourth quarter of 2013.

3) During the first quarter of 2013, NOK 450 million was charged to the income statement in connection with the Supreme Court ruling regarding certain debtfinanced structured products.

5 Total operating expenses relative to total income. Total expenses exclude impairment losses for goodwill and other intangible assets.
6 Return on equity represents the shareholders' share of profit for the period relative to average equity.
7 RAROC (Risk-Adjusted Return On Capital) is defined as risk-adjusted profits (shareholders' share) relative to average equity. Risk
adjusted profits indicate the level of profits in a normalised situation. Among other things, recorded impairment losses on loans are
replaced by normalised losses.
8 Average equity is estimated on the basis of recorded equity including allocated dividend, but excluding additional Tier 1 capital. Thus this
amount corresponds to the shareholders' share of equity.
9 The shareholders' share of profit for the period relative to average risk-weighted volume.
20 Total assets under management for external clients in DNB Asset Management, DNB Livsforsikring and DNB Skadeforsikring.

share may be purchased at a price between NOK 10 and NOK 200 per share. The authorisation is valid for a period of 12 months from
23 April 2015. Acquired shares shall be redeemed in accordance with regulations on the reduction of capital. An agreement has been
signed with Norwegian Government/Ministry of Trade, Industry and Fisheries for the redemption of a proportional share of government
holdings to ensure that the government's percentage ownership does not change as a result of the redemption of repurchased shares.
27 The shareholders' share of profits relative to the average number of shares excluding any holdings of own shares.
28 The shareholders' share of profits excluding profits from operations held for sale. Holdings of own shares are not included in calculations
of the number of shares.
30 Closing price at end of period less closing price at beginning of period, including dividends reinvested in DNB shares on the dividend
payment date, relative to closing price at beginning of period.
32 The shareholders' share of equity, excluding additional Tier 1 capital, at end of period relative to the number of shares.
34 Closing price at end of period relative to annualised earnings per share.

1) Includes dividends and equity related derivatives.

2) Moody's and Standard & Poor's downgrades of Eksportfinans' credit rating in the fourth quarter of 2011 resulted in sizeable unrealised gains on the company's longterm funding. The effect of such unrealised gains on DNB's holding, after tax, represented NOK 11.8 billion in the fourth quarter of 2011. After reviewing the fair value of the company in connection with the closing of the annual accounts, DNB wrote down the value by an amount corresponding to unrealised gains on Eksportfinans' own debt in the fourth quarter of 2011. In 2012, 2013, 2014 and 2015, the required rate of return in the market was reduced, and Eksportfinans had sizeable unrealised losses on own debt. The impairment loss recorded by DNB in the fourth quarter of 2011 was reversed by an amount corresponding to these unrealised losses. Reversals totalling NOK 73 million were made in the first quarter of 2015. The remaining impairment loss was NOK 266 million at end-March 2015. The impairment loss in 2011 and subsequent reversals have been reported on the line "Profit from companies accounted for by the equity method" along with DNB's share of profits from the company.

1) In consequence of the upward adjustment of life expectancy assumptions, it will be necessary to strengthen the premium reserve for group pensions. DNB has decided to wind up its public sector operations within this segment and parts of the portfolio have already been transferred to other life insurance companies. The total required increase in reserves for the portfolio as at 31 March 2015 has thus been reduced from NOK 12.3 billion to NOK 11.7 billion. It will be possible to use returns in excess of the guaranteed rate of return, in addition to the profit in the risk result, to cover the required increase in reserves. However, it will not be possible to use excess returns on one contract to strengthen reserves on other contracts. Furthermore, DNB's shareholder contribution for each contract must be minimum 20 per cent. The shareholder contribution will be affected by the average return achieved during the 2014-2020 period. Provided that the expected return is achieved, DNB will have to cover approximately 23 per cent of the total required increase in reserves. DNB's share will represent approximately NOK 3.3 billion. With respect to public sector operations, it is expected that most of the portfolio will be transferred by 1 January 2016. For this portfolio, the build-up of reserves must be completed at the time the individual customers transfer their portfolios.

As from the fourth quarter of 2014, it is assumed that properties will be sold and that deferred taxes will be calculated based on this assumption in the consolidated accounts. Comparable figures have been restated correspondingly.

1) Excluding unrealised gains on long-term securities.

2) In consequence of the upward adjustment of life expectancy assumptions, it will be necessary to strengthen the premium reserve for group pensions. It will be possible to use returns in excess of the guaranteed rate of return to cover the required increase in reserves. However, it will not be possible to use excess returns on one contract to strengthen reserves on other contracts. The effects of not applying the solidarity principle have been reflected in the accounts for the second quarter of 2014, resulting in a reallocation between provisions for higher life expectancy and allocations to policyholders.

1) Prepared in accordance with prevailing regulations for life insurance companies. New regulations are expected upon the introduction of Solvency II.

3) Solvency margin capital is measured against the solvency margin requirement, which is linked to the company's insurance commitments on the liabilities side of the balance sheet. The solvency margin requirements for Norwegian life insurance companies are subject to regulations on the calculation of solvency capital requirements and solvency margin capital, as laid down by the Ministry of Finance on 19 May 1995.

3.3.1 Legal structure

In accordance with the requirements of the Norwegian regulatory authorities, the banking, asset management and insurance activities of the DNB Group are organised in separate limited companies under the holding company DNB ASA. Banking activities are organised in DNB Bank ASA and its subsidiaries. Asset management activities are organised under DNB Asset Management Holding AS. DNB Livsforsikring AS offers life insurance and pension saving products. DNB Skadeforsikring AS offers non-life insurance products as part of a total product package for retail customers.

The chart below shows the legal structure of the DNB Group.

3.3.2 Operational structure

The operational structure of DNB deviates from its legal structure. The operational structure is adapted to the Group's business operations and aims to ensure high-quality customer service and products as well as efficient operations.

DNB's operational structure aims to ensure efficient adaption to changes in customer behaviour and the development of products and services tailored to customer needs. Customer areas are responsible for customer relationships and customer service, while product areas are responsible for the development of key products. Operational tasks and group services are carried out by the Group's support and staff units, which provide infrastructure and cost-efficient services for the business units. All activities in subsidiaries fall within the area relevant to the company's primary operations.

Operational structure

  • Personal Banking Norway is responsible for product sales and advisory services to Norwegian consumers and households. DNB offers a wide range of products through Norway's largest distribution network, comprising branches, telephone banking (24/7), digital banking, real estate broking as well as external channels (post offices and in-store postal and banking outlets).
  • Corporate Banking Norway is responsible for product sales and advisory services to small and medium-sized enterprises in Norway. Customers in this segment range from small businesses and start-up companies to relatively large corporate customers, and the product offerings are adapted to the customers' different needs. Corporate Banking is represented through a broad physical distribution network throughout Norway as well as digital and telephone banking (24/7).
  • Large Corporates and International (LCI) serves the bank's largest corporate customers and is responsible for DNB's international banking operations. DNB serves its customers with emphasis on industry expertise and relationship management. LCI is recognised for its long-term customer relationships based on sound industry and product expertise and strong skills within complex international transactions. LCI also includes DNB's operations in the Baltics, mainly serving personal and small business customers.
  • Markets offers all of the Group's customers risk management, investment and financing products and services in the capital markets. Products and solutions are provided by customer teams in cooperation with the customer areas, and Markets gives advice and develops tailor-made products for the different customer segments. Markets' market making and other trading activities support customer activities with products and prices.
  • Wealth Management is responsible for the Group's private banking activities and aims to strengthen DNB's position in the fast-growing high-net-worth segment and in the market for long-term saving products and asset management. Wealth Management is responsible for the further development of the Group's savings products and delivers defined-contribution and investment choice pension products to all of DNB's customers in close cooperation with the customer areas.
  • Products develops and manages products in close cooperation with the customer areas. The area offers a wide range of products within life insurance, non-life insurance, factoring, leasing and other asset finance. The products are offered to all customer segments and are mainly distributed through the bank's distribution channels.

3.3.3 Financial governance and reporting structure

DNB's financial governance is geared to the different customer segments. The follow-up of total customer relationships and segment profitability are two important dimensions when making strategic priorities and deciding on where to allocate the Group's resources. Reported figures for the different segments will reflect the Group's total sales of products and services to the relevant segment.

Reporting structure – business segments

Personal customers: includes the Group's total sales of products and services to personal customers.

Small and medium-sized enterprises: includes the Group's total sales of products and services to small and mediumsized enterprises.

Large corporates and international customers: includes total sales of products to large corporate customers in Norway and in international units. The segment also includes personal and small business customers in the Baltics, Sweden and Denmark.

Trading: includes the Group's market making and proprietary trading activities in Markets.

Traditional pension products: includes traditional defined-benefit pension products no longer offered to new customers.

The income statements and balance sheets for the segments are presented in accordance with internal financial reporting principles and DNB's financial governance model. The reporting is based on a number of assumptions, estimates and discretionary distributions. The principles imply allocating revenues, costs and capital requirements to the segments.

Margin income on loans and deposits is calculated using internal transfer rates based on observable market rates, which in most cases roughly correspond to NIBOR. Additional costs relating to the Group's long-term funding are also charged to the segments.

Services provided by staff and support units will as far as possible be scaled and priced according to use. The pricing of such intra-group transactions is regulated by internal agreements based on market terms. Joint expenses incurred by group staff units and other group expenditures that cannot be debited according to use, are charged on the basis of relevant distribution formulas. Costs relating to the Group's equity transactions, including strategic investments, and direct shareholder-related expenses and costs related to the Group's governing bodies are not charged to the segments.

The Group's total common equity Tier 1 capital is allocated to the segments. Allocated capital reflects the Group's longterm capitalisation ambition, and the distribution formula is based on an adaption to the Basel II regulations. Return on allocated capital represents profits after tax relative to average allocated capital.
