Summary of mBank S.A. Group results in Q4 2019

The net profit attributable to owners of mBank generated by mBank Group in Q4 2019 amounted to PLN 116.3 million which represents a 67.6% decrease compared to Q3 2019.

The total income of mBank Group declined by 5.8% compared to the previous quarter and reached PLN 1,409.3 million. Core income decreased due to lower net interest income, while net fee and commission income increased on a quarterly basis. The decrease of net interest income by PLN 53.7 million or 5.0% was caused by the negative impact of early repayments of retail loans in connection with the verdict of Court of Justice of the European Union regarding the consumer's right to reduce the cost of loan in the event of early repayment of the amount due under the loan agreement in the amount of PLN 68.5 million. Net interest margin decreased to 2.60% compared to 2.81% in Q3 2019. Net fee and commission income grew by 5.2% to PLN 261.5 million mainly thanks to better result on payment cards as well as higher credit-related fees and commissions from bank accounts. Net trading income declined by 7.7% mainly due to lower FX result. Net operating result remained negative but relieved compared to the previous quarter, when higher provisions for future commitments were created (including provision for potential return of fees related to early repayments of loans before the verdict of the Court of Justice of the European Union which amounted to PLN 9.6 million in Q4 2019 and to PLN 15.2 million in Q3 2019).

In Q4 2019 total overhead cost including amortization decreased by 1.6% compared to Q3 2019 and amounted to PLN 533.7 million. It was mainly the result of lower staff-related expenses, which declined by 6.3%. Material costs were also reduced by 2.9%, mainly thanks to decreased administration and real estate costs and IT spending. Consequently, the described trends were reflected in cost to income ratio of 37.9%, which was slightly higher than 36.2% recorded in the previous quarter.

In Q4 2019, impairment and fair value change of loans and advances at mBank Group (being the sum of: impairment or reversal of impairment on financial assets not measured at fair value through profit or loss and gains or losses from non-trading loans and advances mandatorily measured at fair value through profit or loss) amounted to PLN 174.9 million, down by PLN 74.5 million or 29.9% on a quarterly basis. The decrease was noted in the retail banking segment (in the previous quarter an elevated level of impairment on loans and advances was caused by the recalibration of models used to measure loan impairment).

Significant negative impact on the operating profit of mBank Group stemmed from the negative result on provisions for legal risk related to foreign currency loans amounting to PLN 293.5 million compared to PLN 66.6 million in Q3 2019. The increase resulted from the change of methodology of calculation of the legal risk provisions related to the individual court cases concerning to the mortgage and housing loans in CHF.

Provisions for legal risk relating to indexation clauses in mortgage and housing loans in CHF

Provisions for legal proceedings are recognized for the value in dispute and other costs on each reporting date based on an estimate of the probability of loss. However, the Group's final liability may differ from the provisions that have been recognized, as a high degree of judgement is involved in assessing the probability of uncertain liabilities in such legal proceedings and quantifying them. These estimates may turn out to be inaccurate at a later stage of the proceedings.

As far as the legal proceedings relating to indexation clauses in mortgage and housing loans in CHF are concerned, in the opinion of the Management Board of the Bank, the current state of judicial decisions is unstable and the line of verdicts is not consistent, hence it is extremely difficult to estimate the level of provisions for the legal risk associated with this portfolio of loans. The Bank believes that currently observed market practice of implementing of portfolio approach towards creation of provisions for legal risk relating to such cases is to some extent the response to ongoing public debate and position of audit firms. These methodologies are burdened with numerous doubts and assumptions that reflect current court cases statistics and the level of understanding of extremely diversified judgments that cannot yet be interpreted as a shaping line of verdicts at this stage. In the opinion of the Management Board of the Bank a large part of court judgments unfavourable to banks results from misunderstanding of the essence of banking activity, which is reflected in the content of justifications for judgments issued. They undermine the basic paradigms of banking activity and regulatory directives to which banks are subject, which can lead to a deep redefinition of banking activity and questioning the current understanding of such categories as loan and interest.

The Group closely observes the developments in courts verdicts in legal proceedings regarding mortgage and housing loans in CHF, including impact of the CJEU judgment. In the 4th quarter of 2019 the Group decided to change the methodology of the measurement of provisions for legal risk regarding individual court cases concerning indexation clauses in mortgage and housing loans in CHF as a result of the observed increase of total number of individual court cases as well as change in verdicts issued by the courts in such legal cases. As at 31 December 2019 the Group measured the provisions for the population of mortgage and housing loans in CHF using "expected value" method allowed by the IAS 37 in which the obligation is estimated by weighting all possible outcomes by their associated probabilities. The amount of provisions for individual cases concerning indexation clauses calculated using the new approach amounted to PLN 417 653 thousand which represented an increase of PLN 387 088 thousand compared to the amount as of 31 December 2018.

The methodology applied by the Bank depends on numerous assumptions, all associated with the significant degree of expert judgement made by the Bank, among which the most important are: an expected population of borrowers who will file a lawsuit against the Bank, the probability of losing the case having final and binding judgement, the distribution of expected verdicts judged by the courts and the loss to be incurred by the Bank in case of a losing the case in court.

The population of borrowers who will file a lawsuit against the Bank has been projected for a period of next 5 years based on the Bank's history of legal cases in the past and assumes a significant increase in inflow of new cases.

The probability of loss has been calculated using the available as of 31 December 2019 Bank's history of final and binding positive and negative verdicts. The final rulings to-date in the indexation clauses proceedings are favourable to the Group in the majority of the cases. As the number of final verdicts is not statistically representative (too few binding verdicts have been issued by courts in cases related to mBank) the assumption of probability of loss takes into account the additional buffer for expected adverse trends in the courts decisions in the nearest future.

The methodology also takes into account the expected level of loss in case of losing the case by the Bank. The loss was calculated using the probabilities of different verdicts that may be issued. As currently there is still no homogenous line of verdicts taken by the courts in such cases the Bank took into account three possible losing scenarios of outcomes in legal proceedings: (i) the contract is partially invalid; the contract is not invalid, but the indexation mechanism is eliminated, which transforms a loan indexed to CHF into a PLN loan subject to the interest rate of the loan indexed to CHF, (ii) the contract is invalid in whole; the change in the contract resulting from deletion of the exchange rate norm (assuming that the norm defines the main subject matter of the contract) would be too far-reaching and (iii) the contract on a mortgage indexed to the Swiss franc is not invalid and the loan remains a mortgage indexed to the Swiss franc; the gap should be filled by interpreting the contract based on a norm referring to the fixing rate of the NBP. Each of this scenarios is associated with a different level of losses for the Bank. The Bank calculated the average level of loss weighted with the probabilities of occurrence of those scenario in case of negative final and binding judgement. The probabilities of those scenarios applied by the Bank has been based on the assessment of the Bank consulted with the external legal advisor.

Gross loans and advances to corporate clients declined in Q4 2019 to PLN 47,785.7 million or 1.8% (excluding reverse repo / buy-sell back transactions and the FX effect, the volume of loans and advances to corporate clients grew by 0.7%).

The volume of loans to individuals rose from the end of Q3 2019 by 2.3% to PLN 60,360.7 million. Mortgage and housing loans increased by 1.5% compared to the end of September 2019 (to PLN 38,979.0 million) thanks to dynamically growing new sales.

Investment securities were the second largest asset category at the end of 2019 and stood at PLN 34,305.2 million, down by PLN 450.9 million or 1.3% in the quarter.

Total liabilities and equity of mBank Group

In Q4 2019, amounts due to customers, which are the Group's principal source of funding, grew compared to the end of previous quarter by PLN 695.5 million or 0.6%.

Deposits from individual customers reached PLN 77,664.4 million at the end of Q4 2019, up 7.7% QoQ. Balances on current and saving accounts grew by PLN 5,580.0 million or 9.8% and term deposits declined by PLN 68.9 million or 0.5%.

The share of equity in mBank Group's total liabilities and equity was at 10.2% at the end 2019.

The level of capital ratios decreased slightly in Q4 2019, driven mainly by a decrease of own funds (connected to higher deductions of own funds due to intangible assets and impairment or reversal of impairment on financial assets not measured at fair value through profit or loss). The Total Capital Ratio stood at 19.5% and the Tier 1 capital ratio at 16.5% at the end of 2019.

Comparative data

Presentation of result on provisions for legal risk related to foreign currency loans

Since the end of 2019 a new line item in the income statement has been separated in which the Group presents the result on provisions for legal risk related to foreign currency loans. Previously the expenses of creating provisions for court cases relating to foreign currency loans were presented as Other operating expenses, and income relating to release of those provisions was presented within Other operating income. The change in presentation is relevant to the understanding of the financial performance of the Group. The comparative data have been adjusted accordingly, which resulted in the decrease of other operating income in 2018 by PLN 2 626 thousand and decrease of other operating expenses by PLN 22 975 thousand. The result on provisions for legal risk related to foreign currency loans in 2018 was negative and amounted to PLN 20 349 thousand.

The recognition of some transactions of purchase and sale of securities

Based on the analysis performed by the Group, some transactions of purchase and sale of securities which, when considered jointly, should be treated as equivalent to buy-sell back ("BSB") or sell-buy back ("SBB") transactions taking into account their economic nature. Such transactions in previous years had been incorrectly recognised by the Bank as unconditional sale or purchase transactions in line with their legal nature.

In accordance with substance over form principle, the Group adjusted the recognition of those transactions. This adjustment resulted in an increase in the carrying amount of debt securities held for trading and in the amounts due to banks arising from SBB transactions by PLN 30 439 thousand as at 31 December 2018, and an increase in receivables arising from BSB transactions presented in the item "Loans and advances to clients measured at amortised cost" by PLN 385 954 thousand, an increase in the amounts due to clients by PLN 123 618 thousand and a decrease in the value of debt securities held for trading by PLN 262 336 thousand as at 1 January 2018.

The said adjustment resulted also in recognising an additional tax on selected financial institutions (banking tax). In the period from 1 February 2016 to 31 December 2017 the tax on selected financial institutions (together with late payment interest) should have been higher by PLN 31 208 thousand and in the period from 1 January 2018 to 31 December 2018 by PLN 13 665 thousand. Due to the above the Group adjusted the retained earnings by the respective amounts in correspondence with the liabilities to tax authorities. AS a result the Group also corrected the preliminary recognition of provision for the banking tax through the income statement of 2019.

Netting revenues and costs due to fees and commissions related to car fleet management

In accordance with the requirements of IFRS 15 "Revenue from contracts with customers", the Group made changes in the presentation of revenues and costs that required restatement of comparative data for 2018. In accordance with the requirements of IFRS 15, the Group decreased by PLN 11 441 thousand fees and commissions expenses for the period from 1 January to 31 December 2018, i.e. by the amount of fees and commissions income related to the leasing car fleet management, which were reimbursed to the Group. The change did not affect the result on fees and commissions.

The detailed information on the changes in comparative data will be presented in the annual consolidated financial statements of the Group for 2019.
