Interim Report 31 March 2024 is a translation of the original Finnish version "Osavuosikatsaus 31.3.2024". If discrepancies occur, the Finnish version is dominant.
The Company's profitable growth will continue driven by investments in customer experience and service network. The SME customer business to be acquired from Handelsbanken will improve the Company's profitability from the second half of 2024 onwards.
We estimate the Group's comparable profit before taxes to be EUR 120-140 million in the financial year 2024 (comparable profit before taxes was EUR 143.6 million in financial year 2023). More about the outlook in the Interim Report on page 21.

Comparable profit before taxes EUR 25.6 million
Profit growth continues despite a significant additional allowance – comparable profit before taxes was EUR 25.6 million and increased 6.1 percent
In the first quarter, OmaSp's business continued to
develop better than expected despite the challenging economic environment. Both main sources of income continued strong growth. Comparable profit before taxes increased for the 16th time in a row in relation to the comparison period, even though a significant one-off additional allowance was recorded for the quarter.
remained steady and fee and commission income and expenses increased by 22% compared to the previous year.
When looking at the credit portfolio as a whole, the quality of the credit portfolio has remained at the expected level, taking into account cyclical development. At the end of the first quarter, the Company detected non-compliance with the guidelines. The weakening of the
collateral position due to non-compliance
The interest rate environment has continued to support the development of net interest income and during the early part of the year the growth was 58% compared to the previous year. The growth in customer numbers has also
combined with the prevailing general weak economic situation increases credit risk from previously reported. As a result, we recorded an additional allowance based on the management's judgement of EUR 19.5 million for the quarter. According to our estimate, the additional

allowance covers possible credit losses that may be realised in the future of customers related to the settlement. The investigation has revealed that the bank's lending guidelines have been significantly violated. It is a single case where the credit risk status of the customers has been concealed by deliberately creating customer groups incorrectly and with incomplete
information. The properties are located nationwide around Finland and target the real estate sector. Based on extensive investigations, it has been possible to ensure that noncompliance with the guidelines targets approximately 3% of OmaSp's EUR 6 billion credit portfolio. What has happened is taken very seriously and it is clear that we have failed when that chain of events has emerged. We have taken extensive concrete measures to be able to minimise the risk of anything like that happening in the future.
Profit before taxes for the first quarter was EUR 24.7 million and comparable profit before taxes was EUR 25.6 million, an increase of 6% in both. The comparable return on equity (ROE%) for the early part of the year has remained at a good level despite the additional allowance recorded for the early part of the year and was 15.5%. Due to good earnings, the Common Equity Tier 1 capital strengthened by almost 0.5 percentage points. Operational efficiency is among the best in the industry and the comparable cost/income ratio was 34.1%. The annual authority fees burden the bank's first quarter results. The comparable cost/income ratio without authority fees was 30.4%.
In December 2023, we adopted a revised operating model with the aim of streamlining the organisational structure. The measures taken are already visible in our everyday life and raise the level of the bank's operations even further. In addition, early in the year, we launched
an OmaOsake share savings program for all personnel. 60% of the personnel
signed up for the first program period, which reflects OmaSp's corporate culture and employees' commitment to increasing the value of the bank.
Despite the exceptional early part of the year, we continue the financial year with
confidence due to our profit-making ability and strong capital buffers. Development work and investments to improve operational efficiency and customer experience will continue. OmaSp was last year the most profitable company on the Helsinki Stock Exchange and there is a strong will to continue on that path. We are currently preparing for the onboarding of Handelsbanken's Finnish SME business at the turn of August-September, which will improve the annual profit before taxes by approximately EUR 8–12 million. According to our guidance, the comparable profit before taxes for the financial year 2024 is estimated to be EUR 120–140 million.

The Finnish economy is still in recession and according to the Bank of Finland's forecast, the economy will begin to recover towards the end of the year slightly faster than predicted in the forecast from December 2023. The elevated levels of prices and interest rates as well as the weak growth of exports are weighing on private consumption. The reduction in investments also affects the recovery of the economy. (1 The year-on-year change in consumer prices calculated by Statistics Finland was 2.2% in March. The rise in inflation compared to a year ago was influenced, among other things, by the rise in the average interest rate on mortgages and the rise of interest rates on consumer loans. (3
Inflation has continued to slow down in recent months. In March, the European Central Bank decided to keep each three key interest rates unchanged. Based on ECB's current estimate, key interest rates are at a level that will help bring inflation back to 2% level in the medium term. (2 Financial conditions in Finland tightened during 2023 and, during early 2024, the interest rates have remained at the previous year's level. During January-March, the quotation of the 12-month Euribor rate has risen approximately by 0.2 percentage points. (10
Weak demand for exports, rising prices and high interest rates have contributed to the economic growth of Finland. According to the preliminary calculations of the Bank of Finland, the GDP is predicted to decrease by 0.5% in 2024 and increase by 1.7% in 2025. In 2026, economic growth is projected to slow down to 1.5%. (1
The seasonally adjusted savings rate of households increased by 0.8 percentage points compared to the previous quarter and was 0.6% in October-December. In the last quarter of 2023, the disposable income of households grew slightly compared to the previous quarter and consumption expenditure remained at the level of the previous quarter. The disposable income of households grew by 6.8% and adjusted by price changes, income increased by 4.1% compared to the previous quarter one year ago.
The investment rate decreased slightly from the previous quarter and was 11.6%. Majority of the investments of households is directed in housing investments. The corporate investment rate remained at the level of the previous quarter and was 29.3%. (4
According to Statistics Finland, the number of employed people aged 15 to 74 was 52,000 less in March and the number of unemployed was 60,000 more than a year ago. In March 2024, the employment rate was 76.1% (20 to 64 years) and the average unemployment rate was 9.0% (15 to 74 years). (5
According to Statistics Finland's preliminary data, prices of old dwellings in housing companies decreased in the whole country by 5.4% in February from the previous year. In February, prices of old dwellings in housing companies fell by 6.1% in the six biggest cities, and by 4.4% in the rest of Finland compared to the previous year. At the same time, the number of sales of old dwellings in blocks of flats and terraced houses made through real estate agents decreased by 15% from the comparison period. (6
In February 2024, mortgage withdrawals were made in total of EUR 0.9 billion, which is EUR 60 million less than in the previous year. The annual growth of all loans for households decreased by 1.0% and the annual growth of mortgage stock by 1.4%. The number of corporate loans rose 1.7% over the same period. The average interest rate on new mortgages was 4.37% in February. Over the 12 month period, the number of household deposits reduced by a total of 2%. (7
During the previous 12 months, the number of bankruptcies filed increased by 16% compared to the 12 month period. (8 During November 2023 and January 2024, the number of new building permits granted decreased by 37% compared to the previous year and was 4.8 million cubic meters. (9

The Group's Liquidity Coverage Ratio (LCR) remained at a good level, standing at 152.8% at the end of the last quarter. The Net Stable Funding Ratio (NSFR) was 117.3%.
During the first quarter 2024, the interest rates have remained at the turn of the year level. However, inflationary pressures remain at a higher level than normal as a result of low unemployment and increased wage levels, when interest rates will presumably continue to show large swings during 2024 (1 . The new interest rate environment is also reflected in the competitive bidding of deposits as banks offer an even higher deposit rate. At the same time, households' overall savings development in Finland is on the decline as vast majority of available funds go to consumption instead of saving as a result of the increased cost of living. The changes in the interest rate environment can be seen especially in the increased costs of funding. Despite the increase in costs, the availability of financing has remained at a good level.
Despite the general economic uncertainty, the Company's liquidity has remained stable in the first quarter, in addition to which bonds issued by the Company in 2023 have strengthened its liquidity position and reduced refinancing risk.

The corresponding period last year has been used as the year under comparison in income statement items, and the date of 31 December 2023 as the comparison period for the balance sheet and capital adequacy.
For the first quarter, the Group's profit before taxes was EUR 24.7 (23.3) million and the profit for the period was EUR 19.9 (18.7) million. The cost/income ratio was 35.2 (50.7)%.
Comparable profit before taxes amounted to EUR 25.6 (24.2) million in the first quarter and the comparable cost/income ratio was 34.1 (47.9)%. The comparable profit has been adjusted for the net income on financial assets and liabilities as well as the one-off expenses related to the acquisitions.
Total operating income was EUR 74.1 (50.7) million. Total operating income increased 46.1% compared to the comparable period. Comparable operating income was EUR 74.3 (49.7) million, an increase of 49.5% compared to the previous year. Net income on financial assets and liabilities of EUR -0.2 (1.0) million has been adjusted from the operating income as an item affecting comparability.
The acquisition of Liedon Savings Bank's business at the beginning of the year 2023 has had a positive impact on the development of net interest income and fee and commission income during the reporting period.
Net interest income grew by 58.4%, totalling EUR 57.4 (36.2) million. During the review period, interest income grew by 63.2%, totalling EUR 90.7 (55.6) million. The significant growth in interest income can be explained by the increase in market interest rates and by the increased volume due to the acquisition of Liedon Savings Bank's business as of March 2023. In the first quarter, the interest recording policy for hedges related to interest rate risk management has been changed to a netting basis, which reduced interest income and expenses. Net interest income from hedging the interest rate risk was -2.7 million. During the reporting period, the average margin of the loan portfolio has remained almost unchanged.
Interest expenses were EUR 33.3 (19.4) million in the first quarter. The growth of interest expenses has been influenced by the increased interest rates on issued bonds due to the rise in market interest rates. The average interest on deposits paid to the Company's customers was 1.07 (0.49)% at the end of the period.
Fee and commission income and expenses (net) increased by 22.1% to EUR 12.8 (10.5) million. The total amount of fee and commission income was EUR 15.1 (12.1) million.


Net fee and commission income from cards and payment transactions was EUR 9.0 (7.5) million, an increase of 19.9% over the previous year. The increase is mainly explained by the increase in customer volume. The amount of commission income from lending was EUR 2.6 (1.9) million.
The net income on financial assets and liabilities were EUR -0.2 (1.0) million during the period. Other operating income was EUR 4.1 (3.0) million. In the first quarter, deposit guarantee fee of EUR 3.9 million were recorded in other operating income. The corresponding item was recognised as a deposit guarantee fee in other operating expenses.
Operating expenses were in total EUR 26.0 (25.6) million and they increased by 1.5% compared to the previous year's corresponding period. For the reporting period, expenses affecting comparability were recorded in total of EUR 0.8 million for the arrangement of the business to be acquired from Handelsbanken. In the comparison period, expenses included EUR 1.9 million related to the acquisition of Liedon Savings Bank's business, so comparable operating expenses were EUR 25.2 (23.7) million. The increase in comparable operating expenses was 6.3%.
Personnel expenses increased by 24.1% and were EUR 7.4 (6.0) million. At the end of the period, the number of employees was 471 (428), of which 66 (57) were fixedterm. The increase in expenses compared to the comparative period was influenced by the increase in the number of personnel due to the acquisition of Liedon Savings Bank's business.
Other operating expenses decreased by 7.1% to EUR 16.4 (17.7) million. The item includes authority fees, office, IT, PR and marketing costs and those stemming from the business premises in own use.
The Single Resolution Fund for Banking Union reached its target level at the end of 2023, which is why in 2024, instead of EU-level fee, a significantly lower national stability fee will be collected. A total of EUR 3.9 million in deposit guarantee fee was recorded for the first quarter, which will be covered by refunds from the old deposit guarantee fund. In total, EUR 3.9 (5.3) million in authority fees were recorded.
Depreciation, amortisation and impairments on tangible and intangible assets were EUR 2.2 (2.0) million.


Impairment losses on financial assets (net) increased compared to the comparative period and were EUR -23.1 million, while the impairment losses on financial assets recorded in the comparative period amounted to EUR -1.6 million.
During the first quarter, the amount of expected credit losses (ECL) increased by EUR 22.0 million, while the expected credit losses increased by EUR 1.1 million in the comparison period. Almost the entire change concerned receivables from customers and off-balance sheet items.
At the end of the first quarter, the Company detected noncompliance with the guidelines as a result of its own monitoring processes, as a result of which the Company's credit risk position deteriorated materially for certain customer entities. The reason behind the event is a violation of the guidelines related to the Company's lending, as a result of which individual customer entities were deliberately formed incorrectly. The weakening of the collateral position due to non-compliance combined with the prevailing general weak economic situation increased the Company's credit risk from previously reported. Due to the change in risk position, an additional allowance based on management's judgement of EUR 19.5 million was recognised in the first quarter. According to the Company's estimate, the additional allowance covers possible credit losses realising in the future due to changes in the credit risk position. The additional allowance will be allocated to individual loans during the second quarter. The additional allowance made is targeted to stage 2.
The net amount of realised credit losses increased compared to the comparison period and was EUR 1.2 (0.5) million in the first quarter.
At the end of the reporting period, the Company has additional loss allowances based on the management's judgement and fair value adjustments recorded in the balance sheet in total EUR 27.8 million. Additional allowances are targeted to stage 2.


The Group's balance sheet total decreased by 1.5% during January-March 2024 and was EUR 7,531.3 (7,642.9) million.
Loans and receivables in total, EUR 6,180.4 (6,189.4), million remained at the level of the comparison period.

The average size of loans issued over the past 12 months has been approximately EUR 126 thousand.

The Group's investment assets decreased 9.8% during the period, totaling EUR 506.3 (561.4) million. The majority of the change is due to the maturity of a single large bond investment and the increase in cash in the liquidity portfolio. The primary purpose of managing investment assets is securing the Company's liquidity position.
At the end of the period, intangible assets recorded in the balance sheet totaled EUR 7.8 (8.8) million and a goodwill of EUR 4.8 (4.8) million.
During the period, liabilities to credit institutions and to the public and public sector entities decreased by 1.9% to EUR 3,870.4 (3,943.6) million.

At the end of the period, covered bonds were secured by loans to the value of EUR 3,024.2 (3,024.0) million.
The Group's equity EUR 527.4 (541.1) million decreased by 2.5% during the period. The change in equity is mainly explained by the result of the period and the payment of dividends.
On 31 March 2024, the number of own shares held by Oma Savings Bank was 136,647. In March, the Company transferred 64,739 shares held by the Company to persons entitled to the remuneration of the 2024 reward installment of the share incentive scheme 2020–2021 and 2022–2023.

Off-balance-sheet commitments included commitments given to a third party on behalf of a customer and irrevocable commitments given to a customer. Commitments given to a third party on behalf of a customer, EUR 42.1 (41.9) million, were mostly made up of bank guarantees and other guarantees. Irrevocable commitments given to a customer, which totalled EUR 331.7 (330.6) million at the end of March, consisted mainly of undrawn credit facilities.

The Company's project of transitioning to the application of the IRB approach is progressing as planned. In the first stage, the Company is applying for permission to apply an internal risk classification under the IRB approach to calculate capital requirements for retail credit risk liabilities. Later, the Company will apply for a similar permission for other types of liabilities. In February 2022, the Company has applied to the Finnish Financial Supervisory Authority (FIN-FSA) for the application of the IRB approach in capital adequacy, after which the application process has progressed based on dialogue with the supervisor.
In addition, the Company has reform projects ongoing regarding regulatory reporting.
In May 2023, the Company and Handelsbanken agreed on an arrangement whereby the Company will acquire Handelsbanken's SME enterprise operations in Finland. Authority approval for the transaction was received on 24 July 2023. The plan is that the transaction will be completed at the turn of August and September. The SME enterprise operations to be purchased are geographically located all over Finland. In connection with the transaction, the Company will open new branches in Vaasa, Vantaa and Kuopio.
The size of the deposit base transferring to the Company was approximately EUR 1.2 billion and the lending volume is approximately EUR 460 million in the situation on 31 March 2023. In the business transaction, approximately 14,000 customers will be transferred to the Company. The volumes to be transferred to the Company has changed because of market changes and more precise segmentation from what was announced in connection
with the transaction. About 40 people from Handelsbanken will transfer to the Company as old employees.
With the arrangement the Company's market position will strengthen among SMEs in Finland. The growing business volumes will further improve the Company's cost efficiency and business profitability, and substantially strengthen the annual profit-making ability. The acquisition of the business is estimated to increase the Company's profit before taxes by approximately EUR 8–12 million annually. The transferring deposit base will strengthen the Company's liquidity position, and there is no separate financing need for the business arrangement. The transaction will weaken the Company's capital adequacy by approximately 2 percentage points based on increasing risk-weighted items and recognised goodwill. The purchase price is the net value of the balance sheet items to be transferred at closing plus a maximum of EUR 15 million. The final purchase price takes into account the development of the deposit base between the time of signing and closing of the transaction. The purchase price will be paid in cash, so the transaction has no impact on the number of Company's shares outstanding.
Oma Savings Bank Plc's Annual General Meeting was held on 26 March 2024. The AGM confirmed the Company's Financial Statements and Consolidated Financial Statements for the 2023 financial year, granted discharge to the members of the Company's Board of Directors and CEO from liability, decided to support the Company's Remuneration Policy for governing bodies and approved the Remuneration Report for governing bodies.
In addition, the AGM decided on the following matters:

In accordance with the Board's proposal, the AGM decided to pay an ordinary dividend of EUR 0.67 per share and an additional dividend of EUR 0.33 per share based on the balance sheet adopted for the accounting period 2023. The dividend will be paid to a shareholder who is registered in the Company's shareholder register maintained by Euroclear Finland Ltd on the record date 28 March 2024. The dividend will be paid on 8 April 2024 in accordance with the rules of Euroclear Finland Ltd.
In accordance with the proposal of the Shareholders' Nomination Committee, the AGM decided to pay the following annual remuneration to the members of the Board of Directors for the term ending at the AGM 2025: EUR 72,000 per year to the Chairperson, EUR 54,000 per year to the Vice Chairperson and for other members EUR 36,000 per year. In addition, the meeting fees of EUR 1,000 for each Board meeting and EUR 500 for each email meeting or committee meeting will be paid.
A condition for obtaining and paying a fixed annual fee is that the Board Member commits to purchase Oma Savings Bank Plc shares amounting to 40% of the fixed annual remuneration on the regulated market (Nasdaq Helsinki Ltd) at a price determined by trading. The recommendation is that a member of the Board of Directors shall not transfer the shares awarded as annual remuneration until the membership in the Board has expired.
The number of members of the Board of Directors was confirmed to be seven. Aila Hemminki, Aki Jaskari, Jyrki Mäkynen, Jaakko Ossa, Jarmo Salmi and Jaana Sandström were re-elected as Board members and Essi Kautonen was elected as a new member for a term ending at the end of the 2025 AGM.
KPMG Oy Ab, a firm of authorised public accountants, was elected to continue as auditor for a term ending at the 2025 AGM. KMPG Oy Ab will also act as a certification authority for the Company's sustainability reporting in financial year 2024. M.Sc (Econ.), APA Tuomas Ilveskoski will continue as responsible auditor. The auditor's remuneration is paid against an invoice approved by the Company.
The AGM decided, in accordance with the Board of Directors' proposal, to authorise the Board of Directors to resolve on the issuance of shares or transfer of the Company's shares and the issuance of special rights entitled to shares as referred to in Chapter 10, Section 1 of the Finnish Companies Act, subject to the following conditions:
The authorisation is valid until the end of the next AGM, but not later than 30 June 2025. The authorisation revokes previous authorisations given by the AGM to decide on a share issue, as well as the option rights and the issuance of special rights entitling to shares.

The AGM decided, in accordance with the Board of Directors' proposal, to authorise the Board of Directors to decide on the repurchase of the Company's own shares with funds belonging to the Company's free equity under the following conditions:
• Maximum number of 1,000,000 own shares may be repurchased, representing approximately 3% of the Company's total shares according to the situation on the date of the notice of the meeting, however, that the number of own shares held by the Company does not exceed 10% of the Company's total shares of the Company at any time. This amount includes the own shares held by the Company itself and its subsidiaries within the meaning of Chapter 15, Section 11 (1) of the Finnish Companies Act.
The Board of Directors is authorised to decide how to acquire own shares. The authorisation is valid until the closing of the next AGM, but not later than 30 June 2025.
On 16 April 2024, the Company gave preliminary information on the result for the first quarter and updated its guidance of 2024 due to a significant additional allowance based on management's judgement recognised for the first quarter. The Company detected noncompliance with the guidelines as a result of its own monitoring processes, as a result of which the Company's credit risk position deteriorated materially for certain customer entities. The reason behind the event is a violation of the guidelines related to the Company's lending, as a result of which individual customer entities were deliberately formed incorrectly. The weakening of the collateral position due to non-compliance combined with the prevailing general weak economic situation increases the Company's credit risk from previously reported. Due to the change in risk position, an additional allowance based on management's judgement of EUR 19.5 million was recognised in the first quarter. The Company updated its guidance and comparable profit before taxes is expected to be EUR 120–140 million for the financial year 2024.
Other events following the end of the reporting period that would require the presentation of additional information or that would materially affect the Company's financial position are unknown.
The Company aims to pay a steady and growing dividend, at least 20% of net income. The Company's Board of Directors assesses the balance between the dividend or capital return to be distributed and the amount of own funds required by the Company's capital adequacy requirements and target on an annual basis and makes a proposal on the amount of dividend or capital return to be distributed.

The Company has financial goals set by the Board of Directors for growth, profitability, return on equity and capital adequacy. The Company's Board of Directors has confirmed the following financial goals:
Growth: 10–15 percent annual growth in total operating income under the current market conditions. Profitability: Cost/income ratio less than 45 percent. Return on equity (ROE): Long-term return on equity (ROE) over 16 percent.
Capital adequacy: Common Equity Tier 1 (CET1) capital ratio at least 2 percentage points above regulatory requirement.
The Company will publish financial information in 2024 as follows:
29 Jul 2024 Interim Report Jan-Jun 2024 28 Oct 2024 Interim Report Jan-Sep 2024
New outlook and guidance (updated 16 April 2024):
The Company's profitable growth will continue driven by investments in customer experience and service network. The SME customer business to be acquired from Handelsbanken will improve the Company's profitability from the second half of 2024 onwards.
Oma Savings Bank Plc provides earnings guidance on comparable profit before taxes for 2024. Earnings guidance is based on the forecast for the entire year, which takes into account the current market and business situation. Forecasts are based on the management's insight into the Group's business development.
We estimate the Group's comparable profit before taxes to be EUR 120–140 million for the financial year 2024 (the comparable profit before taxes was EUR 143.6 million in the financial year 2023).

The total capital (TC) ratio of Oma Savings Bank Group increased and was 16.9 (16.5)% at the end of the period. The Common Equity Tier 1 capital (CET1) ratio was 15.4 (14.9)%, being above the minimum level of the mediumterm financial goal set by the Company's Board (at least 2 percentage points above the regulatory requirement).
Risk-weighted assets, EUR 3,301.1 (3,300.0) million, remained at the level of the comparison period. Oma Savings Bank Group applies in the capital requirement calculation for credit risk calculation the standardised approach and for operational risk the basic indicator approach. The basic method is applied when calculating the capital requirement for market risk for the foreign exchange position. The Company's transition project to
the application of the IRB approach is proceeding as planned.
At the end of the review period, the capital structure of the Group was strong and consisted mostly of Common Equity Tier 1 capital (CET1). Own funds increased most significantly by retained earnings for the financial year 2024, which have been included in the Common Equity Tier 1 capital with the permission granted by the Finnish Financial Supervisory Authority (FIN-FSA). The Group's own funds (TC) of EUR 557.6 (544.5) million exceeded by EUR 161.0 million the total capital requirement for own funds EUR 396.6 (396.5) million. Taking into account the indicative additional capital recommendation, the surplus of own funds was EUR 128.0 million. The Group´s leverage ratio was 6.6 (6.3)% at the end of the period.

The total capital requirement for banks' own funds consists of the Pillar I minimum capital requirement (8.0%) and various buffer requirements. Buffer requirements are among others the capital conservation buffer (2.5%) set by the Credit Institution Act, the discretionary SREP requirement according to Pillar II, the countercyclical buffer requirement and the systematic risk buffer.
The SREP requirement 1.5% based on the supervisory authority's estimate imposed by the Finnish Financial Supervisory Authority's (FIN-FSA) for Oma Savings Bank Plc is valid until further notice, but no later than 30 June 2026. The SREP requirement is possible to be partially covered by Tier 1 capital and Tier 2 capital in addition to Common Equity Tier 1. According to the overall assessment based on risk indicators, there are no grounds for applying a countercyclical buffer, and thus the Finnish Financial Authority (FIN-FSA) maintained the requirement of countercyclical buffer at its basic level of 0%.
In October 2023, the Finnish Financial Supervisory Authority (FIN-FSA) issued an indicative additional capital recommendation for own funds and a discretionary additional capital requirement based on the Finnish Act on Credit Institutions for Oma Savings Bank Plc. The indicative additional capital recommendation of 1.0%, covered by Common Equity Tier 1 capital, is valid until further notice as of 31 March 2024. The discretionary additional capital requirement (Pillar II) of 0.25% is valid until further notice as of 31 March 2024, but no later than 31 March 2026. The requirement must be covered by Tier 1 capital. The binding capital adequacy requirement for the leverage ratio is 3%.
On 30 March 2023, the Finnish Financial Supervisory Authority (FIN-FSA) imposed a systemic risk buffer requirement of 1.0% for Finnish credit institutions in order to strengthen the risk-bearing capacity of the banking sector. The decision enters into force on 1 April 2024 and shall be covered by Consolidated Common Equity.

The Group's parent Company is Oma Savings Bank Plc, whose domicile is in Seinäjoki and head office is in Lappeenranta, Valtakatu 32, 53100 Lappeenranta. Copies of the Financial Statements, Financial Statements Release, Interim and Half-Year Financial Reports are available on the bank's website www.omasp.fi.
Oma Savings Bank Group is formed as follows:
• Real estate company Lappeenrannan Säästökeskus holding 100%
• Housing company Seinäjoen Oma Savings Bank house holding 30.5%
The Interim Report is drawn up in accordance with the IAS 34 Interim Financial Reporting standard. The accounting principles for the Interim Report are the same as for the 2023 Financial Statements.
The figures of the Interim Report are presented in thousands of euros unless otherwise specified. The figures in the notes are rounded off, so the combined sum of single figures may deviate from the grand total presented in a table or a calculation. The accounting and functional currency of the Group and its companies is the euro.
The Board of Directors has approved the Interim Report 1 January – 31 March 2024 in its meeting on 29 April 2024.
Future new standards, changes to standards or interpretations effective or published on 1 January 2024 have not a material impact on the consolidated financial statements. Furthermore, future new standards or changes to standards published by the IASB are not expected to have a material impact on the consolidated financial statements.
The preparation of this Interim Report in accordance with IFRS has required certain estimates and assumptions from the Group's management that affect the number of items presented in the Interim Report and the information provided in the notes. The management's key estimates concern the future and key uncertainties about the reporting date. They relate to, among other things, fair value assessment, impairment of financial assets, loans and other assets, investment assets and tangible and intangible assets. Although the estimates are based on the management's current best view, it is possible that the realisations differ from the estimates used in the Interim Report.
The uncertainties contained in the accounting principles that require management's judgement and those contained in the estimates are described in the 2023 Financial Statements. Uncertainty in the economic environment due to the effects of inflation and the increase in interest rates may bring changes to the estimates presented in the Financial Statements that require management judgement.
The application of the impairment losses on financial assets model under IFRS 9 requires the management to make estimates and assumptions about whether the credit risk associated with the financial instrument has increased significantly since the initial recognition and requires forward-looking information to be considered in the recognition of on-demand credit losses.
Despite the general uncertainty in the economy, the Company's liquidity has remained stable at the end of the first quarter of 2024. However, inflationary pressures will remain at a higher level than normal as a result of low unemployment and higher wage levels, when interest rates will presumably continue to show large swings during 2024 (1. The Company strengthened its liquidity by issuing a covered bond in November 2023. With the issuance, the Company will refinance the EUR 300 million covered bond maturing at the beginning of April 2024.
The management of Oma Savings Bank Plc's liquidity risk is based on the Company's ability to procure sufficient cash that is competitive in price in both the short and long term. A key component of liquidity risk management is the planning of the liquidity position in both the short and long term. Additionally, the planning of the liquidity reserve prepares for deteriorating economic conditions in the market and possible changes in legislation. The goal of the Company's liquidity reserve is to cover one month's outflows. Liquidity risk management is supported by active risk management, monitoring of the balance sheet and cash flows and internal calculation models. The Company's liquidity is monitored daily by the Company's Treasury unit. The main objective of the Treasury unit is to ensure that the liquidity position always remains above the regulated and internally set threshold values. The function monitors and measures the amounts of incoming and outgoing cash flows and assesses the possible occurrence of liquidity shortfalls over the course of the day.
The Group's liquidity ratio (LCR), which describes shortterm liquidity, was 152.8% on 31 March 2024. The Company's liquidity has remained strong despite the uncertain market situation. The LCR for the first quarter is temporarily burdened by the Company's maturing covered bond of EUR 300 million, which the Company already has refinanced earlier in November 2023.
The Company has increased buffers in response to a weakening economic cycle and continues to maintain and strengthen liquidity and capital buffers. In 2023, the
Company increased its capital buffers by issuing a debenture loan and strengthened the liquidity position by issuing covered bonds, by which the Company has also reduced refinancing risk. In addition, the Company has implemented hedging operations against interest rate risk during the first quarter 2024.

Credit risk refers to the risk that a contracting party to a financial instrument will not be able to meet its obligations, thereby causing the other party a financial loss. Oma Savings Bank Plc's credit risk primarily consists of exposures secured by immovable property, retail exposures and corporate loans. The goal of credit risk management is to limit the profit and loss and capital adequacy effects of risks resulting from customer exposures to an acceptable level. Credit risk management and procedures have been described in Note G2 of the 2023 Financial Statements.
The rise in interest rates and costs, as well as the waning of economic growth, have increased customers' payment difficulties, and this is reflected in the increase in insolvent loans and expected credit losses.
Share of insolvent responsibilities of total loan portfolio was 2.1 (2.1)% in the end of the review period. At the same time matured and non-performing receivables from the credit portfolio rose and were 3.2 (2.9)%. The Company monitors the development of possible payment delays and repayment exemption applications as well as the development of values of collaterals.
The Company has additional allowances based on the management's judgement and fair value adjustments in total EUR 27.8 million at the end of the first quarter. During the reporting period, an additional allowance of EUR 19.5 million based on the management's judgement was made due to the change in the Company's credit risk position for certain customer entities. According to the Company's estimate, the additional allowance, caused by the change in credit risk position, will cover credit losses that may be realised in the future.
When forming an estimate of the amount of the additional allowance based on the management's judgement, the Company has reviewed the customer entities under review and assessed their credit risk on a client-by-client basis. As a result of the investigation, the Company estimates that the activities that violated the guidelines leading to an additional allowance have been found to be limited to certain identified customer entities, and the increased credit risk within these to certain identified individual customers and their solvency. The Company's risk control and internal audit monitor the development of the investigation work and the resulting payment reliefs and forbearances.
The Company classifies its customers into risk classes based on information available on the counterparty. The classification uses its own internal assessment and external credit rating data. Monitoring is continuous and can lead to a transfer from one risk class to another.
In lending, risk concentration may occur, for example, when the loan portfolio includes large amounts of loans and other liabilities:

Oma Savings Bank Plc's most significant source of operational risk is cyber risks. The operational environment has changed due to the general situation and the risk level of information security has increased. The IT-risk is protected with many different methods and protection against cyberattacks applies not only to the IT environment but also to the entire personnel. Cyber threats and other risks, such as electrical and telecommunications disruptions have been surveyed in cooperation with service providers to ensure that the Company is well prepared in the event of a possible disruption. The Company has updated its own preparedness measures and operating guidelines by assessing various threat scenarios and their probabilities and impacts. The TIBER-FI framework-based information security testing carried out in the first quarter found that the protections were at a good level.

As of 31 March 2024, the Company has the following existing share-based incentive schemes:
On 17 February 2020, Oma Savings Bank's Board of Directors decided to set up a share-based incentive scheme for the Group's management. The remuneration is based on comparable cost-income ratio, an increase in operating income (in comparable figures) and customer and employee satisfaction. The program includes the earning period 2020–2021 and subsequent commitment periods, during which the shares will be disposed approximately in four installments within three years. The reward is paid partly in shares of the Company and partly in cash. The cash portion is used to cover taxes and tax charges incurred by the reward to the person. If a person's employment or employment relationship ends before the payment of the commission, the remuneration, as a rule, is not paid. The fees payable under the scheme correspond to a total of up to 420,000 Oma Savings Bank Plc shares. The target group of the scheme includes a maximum of 10 persons.
On 24 February 2022, Oma Savings Bank's Board of Directors decided to set up a share-based incentive scheme for key persons of the Group. The remuneration is based on comparable cost-income ratio, the quality of the credit portfolio, and customer and employee satisfaction. The program includes a two-year long earning period, 2022–2023 and subsequent commitment periods, during which the shares will be disposed in approximately six instalments within five years. The reward is paid partly in shares of the Company and partly in cash. The cash portion is used to cover taxes and tax charges incurred by the reward to the person. If a person's employment or employment relationship ends before the payment of the commission, the remuneration, as a rule, is not paid. The fees payable under the scheme correspond to a maximum value of 400,000 shares of Oma Savings Bank Plc, including the amount to be paid in cash. The target group of the scheme includes a maximum of 30 key persons, including the Company's CEO and members of the Group's Management Team.
On 29 February 2024, Oma Savings Bank's Board of Directors decided to set up set up a new share-based incentive scheme for key persons of the Group. The remuneration is based on comparable cost-income ratio, quality of the credit portfolio, customer and personnel satisfaction.

The reward is paid partly in shares of the Company and partly in cash. The cash portion is used to cover taxes and tax charges incurred by the reward to the person. If a person's employment or employment relationship ends before the payment of the commission, the remuneration, as a rule, is not paid.

The target group of the scheme includes a maximum of 45 key persons, including the Company's CEO and members of the Group's Management Team.
On 29 February, Oma Savings Bank's Board of Directors established an employee share savings plan ("OmaOsake") for all employees. By encouraging employees to acquire and own shares in the Company, the Company seeks to align the objectives of shareholders and employees in order to increase the value of the Company in the long term. The aim is also to support employee motivation and commitment as well as the Company's corporate culture. The OmaOsake consists of annually commencing plan periods, each with a 12-month savings period followed by a holding period of approximately two years. Participants have the opportunity to receive one free matching share (gross) per two savings shares or one savings share, depending on the achievement of the performance criteria. If the performance criteria are not fulfilled, the participants will receive one matching share per three savings shares. As a rule, the receipt of the matching shares is subject to continued employment and holding of savings shares for the holding period ending 31 March 2027. The potential reward will be paid partly in shares and cash after the end of the holding period. The cash pro-portion is intended to cover taxes and statutory social security contributions arising from the reward. The matching shares are freely transferable after they have been recorded on the participant's book-entry account. During the 2024–2027 plan period, the OmaOsake will be offered to approximately 440 employees including members of the Management Team and the CEO.

On 16 April 2024, the Company gave preliminary information on the result for the first quarter and updated its guidance of 2024 due to a significant additional allowance based on management's judgement recognised for the first quarter. The Company detected noncompliance with the guidelines as a result of its own monitoring processes, as a result of which the Company's credit risk position deteriorated materially for certain customer entities. The reason behind the event is a violation of the guidelines related to the Company's lending, as a result of which individual customer entities were deliberately formed incorrectly. The weakening of the collateral position due to non-compliance combined with the prevailing general weak economic situation increases the Company's credit risk from previously reported. Due to the change in risk position, an additional allowance based on management's judgement of EUR 19.5 million was recognised in the first quarter. The Company updated its guidance and comparable profit before taxes is expected to be EUR 120–140 million for the financial year 2024.
Other events following the end of the reporting period that would require the presentation of additional information or that would materially affect the Company's financial position are unknown.

Oma Savings Bank Plc's financial reporting presents Alternative Performance Measures (APM) that describe the Company's historical financial result, financial position or cash flows. The APMs are drawn up in line with the guidelines set by the European Securities and Markets Authority (ESMA). APMs are not key figures defined or specified in IFRS standards, capital adequacy regulation (CRD/CRR) or Solvency II (SII) regulations. The Company presents APMs as supplementary information to the key figures that are presented in the Group's IFRS-compliant income statement, Group balance sheets and cash flow statements.
In the Company's view, alternative key figures provide meaningful and useful information to investors, securities market analysts and others concerning Oma Savings Bank Plc's performance, financial position and cash flows.

To the Board of Directors of Oma Savings Bank Plc
We have reviewed the accompanying consolidated interim report of Oma Savings Bank Plc which comprise the condensed consolidated balance sheet as at 31 March 2024, condensed consolidated income statement, statement of comprehensive income, changes in equity, and cash flows for the three months ended 31 March 2024 and notes to the condensed interim information. The Board of Directors and the CEO are responsible for the preparation and presentation of the condensed consolidated interim report in accordance with IAS 34 "lnterim Financial Reporting" standard and other regulations governing the preparation of interim financial statements in Finland. Our responsibility is to express a conclusion on this condensed consolidated interim financial information based on our review.
We conducted our review in accordance with lnternational Standards on Review Engagements ISRE 2410 "Review of lnterim Financial Information Performed by the lndependent Auditor of the Entity". A review of interim
financial information consists of making inquiries, primarily of persons responsible for financial and accounting matters, and applying analytical and other review
procedures. A review is substantially less in scope than an audit conducted in accordance with lnternational Standards on Auditing and consequently does not enable us to obtain assurance that we would become aware of all significant matters that might be identified in an audit. Accordingly, we do not express an audit opinion.
Based on our review, nothing has come to our attention that causes us to believe that the accompanying consolidated interim report of Oma Savings Bank Plc as at 31 March 2024 and for the three month period ended 31 March 2024 has not been prepared, in all material respects, in accordance with IAS 34 lnterim Financial Reporting standard and other regulations governing the preparation of interim financial statements in Finland.
