"Yet another successful year of stable and profitable growth."

Kenneth Nilsson, CEO Resurs Holding AB

ABOUT RESURS HOLDING

Resurs Holding (Resurs), which operates through the subsidiaries Resurs Bank and Solid Försäkring, is the leader in retail finance in the Nordic region, offering payment solutions, consumer loans and niche insurance products. Since its start in 1977, Resurs Bank has established itself as a leading partner for sales-driven payment and loyalty solutions in retail and e-commerce, and Resurs has thus built a customer base of approximately 6 million private customers in the Nordics. Resurs Bank has had a banking licence since 2001 and is under the supervision of the Swedish Financial Supervisory Authority. The Resurs Group operates in Sweden, Denmark, Norway and Finland.

The exception is for financial position for which the comparative figure refers to 31 December 2018.

Yet another successful year of stable and profitable growth

Resurs ended 2019 with continued profitable growth and a strong trend in underlying earnings. The earnings trend will benefit our shareholders through the proposed 8 per cent increase in dividends for the full-year. Overall we presented our best ever full-year earnings, despite a lower margin. Resurs continued to capture market shares in the fourth quarter of the year and delivered stable earnings with healthy growth in lending. Lending at year-end amounted to SEK 31.3 billion, corresponding to a 12 per cent increase compared with 2018. We supplemented our capital structure in the fourth quarter with an oversubscribed issue of Additional Tier 1 Capital of SEK 300 million. In December, the Board of Resurs decided to strengthen the financial capital target for the total capital ratio, raising it from 14 per cent to more than 15 per cent. All in all, these initiatives not only strengthen Resurs in meeting the higher regulatory buffer requirements, but the Additional Tier 1 Capital also means that we are well-positioned to continue to deliver profitable growth based on responsible credit lending.

Year distinguished by continued innovation and more strategic partnerships

Payment Solutions continued to report healthy and profitable growth during the year, primarily driven by increased volumes from our retail finance partners. The margin for the quarter was impacted by the customer mix and higher credit losses in Norway. A number of new collaborations with retail finance partners were initiated throughout the Nordic region during the year, in parallel with Resurs receiving renewed trust as a strategic partner from a large number of existing retail finance partners, such as Mio and Bauhaus.

Our Insurance business segment continued to develop its travel, security, roadside assistance and product insurance product lines with strong growth in both premium earned and technical result. In summary, first-rate operation that is making great progress.

Responsible credit lending in a challenging Norwegian market

Consumer Loans reported overall healthy lending growth for the year. The Norwegian market remains a challenge since the effect of the new statutory requirements and the implementation of the Gjeldsregistret changed the market conditions. Higher credit losses are probably to be expected, but we believe these will only affect a portion of our Norwegian credit portfolio and be of a temporary nature. Work was carried out to qualify as far as possible the over-indebtedness in the Norwegian market that was not possible to verify before Gjeldsregistret was introduced. The current IFRS 9 models are not sufficiently quick to identify future credit losses since the models are based on historical figures. In order to manage the increase in credit losses right away, an extra credit provision of SEK 35 million was made in the fourth quarter, alongside the model-based reserves that are made on an ongoing basis. I am proud of the conservative credit model that we follow for both assessment and the reserve ratio.

Looking ahead, we see many opportunities as the Norwegian market stabilises to design an offering that meets both the new rules of play and that delivers customer and business value.

Full focus on responsible business

Our dedication to Resurs's most material sustainability topics – including responsible credit lending, anti-corrpution, equality and diversity – is not only an important prerequisite for growth and profitability but also for earning the trust of the market.

It is also gratifying that we were recognised in several different ways during the year, for example, for our work on shaping an equal opportunity workplace for which we were rewarded by holding our place on the AllBright Foundation's green list of Swedish listed companies with gender equal management. Towards the end of the year, Resurs was named 2020 Career Company of the Year1 , which recognises employers who offer development opportunities for younger employees and, not least, ranked our transparency surrounding how we combat corruption among the top2 of Swedish companies.

We can look back on another successful year in which Resurs continued to grow faster than the market and capture market shares. Our success lies in our extensive experience of retail, leading technological developments and a robust business model that combined with responsible business presents a strong combination that is difficult to beat. It is also a combination that means we are well positioned to seize all the opportunities offered by not only a new year but also a brand new decade!

Other operating income, mainly comprising remuneration from lending operations, amounted to SEK 64 million (53).

Operating expenses

The Group's expenses before credit losses increased SEK 1 million to SEK -370 million (-369) and was the result of a continued costs focus and ongoing efficiency enhancements, particularly in the Norwegian market, to address the lower income margin. Personnel expenses rose SEK 5 million to SEK –163 million (-159) year-on-year. General administrative costs excluding personnel expenses increased SEK 2 million to SEK -153 million (-151), and depreciation, amortisation and impairment of intangible and tangible assets rose SEK 8 million to SEK -21 million (-13).

Financial position at 31 December 2019*

Comparative figures for this section refer to 31 December 2018, except for cash flow for which comparative figures refer to the same period in the preceding year.

On 31 December 2019, the Group's financial position was strong, with a capital base of SEK 5,071 million (4,281) in the consolidated situation, comprising the Parent Company, Resurs Holding, and the Resurs Bank Group. The total capital ratio was 16.3 per cent (14.7 per cent) and the Common Equity Tier 1 ratio was 13.6 per cent (13.4 per cent). During the period, Resurs Bank and the consolidated situation changed the method for calculating operational risk from the basic indicator method to the standardised method, which strengthened the capital ratio in the third quarter of 2019 by 0.5 of a percentage point. In December, Resurs Holding AB issued Additional Tier 1 Capital of a nominal SEK 300 million, which strengthened the total capital ratio by approximately 1.0 percentage point. The Board of Resurs Holding AB decided in December to strengthen the financial capital target for the total capital ratio, raising it from 14 per cent to more than 15 per cent. This strengthening meets the regulatory buffer requirement by a good margin.

Lending to the public on 31 December 2019 totalled SEK 31,345 million (27,957), corresponding to a 12 per cent annual increase and a 11 per cent annual increase excluding currency effects. This solid growth was driven by both the banking segment and is in line with the Group's financial target of lending growth of more than 10 per cent.

In addition to capital from shareholders and bond investors, the operations are financed by deposits from the public. The Group's strategy is to actively work with various sources of financing in order to use the most suitable source of financing at any given time and to create diversified financing in the long term.

Deposits from the public on 31 December 2019 rose 19 per cent to SEK 24,409 million (20,578). Financing through issued securities totalled SEK 7,672 million (7,832). Liquidity remained healthy and the liquidity coverage ratio (LCR) was 264 per cent (146 per cent) in the consolidated situation. The minimum statutory LCR ratio is 100 per cent. Lending to credit institutions on 31 December 2019 amounted to SEK 4,129 million (3,704). Holdings of treasury and other bills eligible for refinancing, as well as bonds and other interest-bearing securities, totalled SEK 3,048 million (2,272).

Cash flow from operating activities amounted to SEK 1,014 million (-450) for the period. Cash flow from deposits amounted to SEK 3,624 million (2,457) and the net change in investment assets totalled SEK -783 million (331). Cash flow from investing activities for the year totalled SEK -103 million (-134) and cash flow from financing activities SEK -372 million (1,470). Since year-end bonds of a nominal SEK 1,600 million have been issued under Resurs Bank's MTN programme, of wich SEK 300 million was Tier 2 bonds. During the year Resurs Holding AB issued Additional Tier 1 Capital of SEK 300 million.

Intangible assets amounted to SEK 2,063 million (1,974), and primarily comprise the goodwill that arose in the acquisition of Finaref and Danaktiv in 2014 and yA Bank in 2015.

Dividends

The Board proposes that the 2020 Annual General Meeting resolve on dividends of SEK 2.10 per share. According to the company's model of semi-annual dividend payments, dividends of SEK 1.80 per share were paid in autumn 2019. Accordingly, the proposed dividend together with the dividend decided in autumn 2019 entails an increase of 8 per cent compared with dividends in the preceding year. The total proposed dividend for the AGM to adopt on 29 April 2020 amounts to SEK 420 million. The Resurs share will be traded ex-dividend from 30 April 2020. The record date is proposed as 4 May 2020 and the dividend will be paid on 7 May 2020. The Board intended to convene another Extraordinary General Meeting in the autumn this year to resolve on dividends.

Resurs's targeted efforts to develop innovative solutions that increase sales and customer loyalty
generated healthy profitable growth in Payment Solutions' Nordic markets during the quarter. This
growth was primarily driven by higher volumes from Resurs's retail finance partners.

Interest in Resurs's central e-commerce checkout combined with retailers' local management of
inventories and sales, Click & Collect, and in the new push function Resurs Checkout for flexible
purchasing decisions, increased steadily during the year. A new and upgraded version of Resurs's
partner portal was also launched in the autumn, enabling retailers to quickly and easily capture all
sales statistics in real time regardless of sales channel. In a bid to promote a move towards more
circular business models, Resurs launched a tailored subscription service during the quarter that
targets the specific customer needs of several retail finance partners. The number of retail finance
partners also steadily increased throughout the Nordic region during the year. A large number of retail
finance partners also decided to expand their strategic partnerships with Resurs, such as Bauhaus and

Stable growth in lending despite challenging Norwegian market
Fourth quarter 2019, October–December
Overall, Consumer Loans reported continued healthy growth in lending in the fourth quarter of the
year, particularly with the Finnish market distinguishing itself by reporting its best ever growth. The
average loan in the Nordic region is steadily increasing and was at slightly more than SEK 100,000 in
the fourth quarter. This leads to a lower NBI margin but also entails a lower credit risk. New
functionality is continuously added to the credit engine, which has played an important role in the
development towards higher average loans, so as to offer an automatic application process, and the
share of automated responses is now stable at almost 100 per cent. In turn, the share of loans
granted that were signed electronically increased during the quarter to approximately 90 per cent in
the Nordic region.

The Norwegian market remains challenging since the effect of the new statutory requirements and
the implementation of the Gjeldsregistret changed market conditions. A likely consequence of the
changes is higher credit losses in the Norwegian market, which is why an additional reserve was made
in the fourth quarter. The assessment is that the increased credit losses will only affect one part of
Resurs's Norwegian credit portfolio and that the effect will probably materialise in 2020, mainly in the
first half of the year. Looking ahead, there are many opportunities as the Norwegian market stabilises
to design an offering that meets both the new rules of play and that delivers customer and business
value.

income from financial transactions of SEK 19 million (-8) year-on-year.
The technical result increased 17 per cent year-on-year to SEK 104 million (88), primarily driven by
growth in the Security and Motor business lines, improved profitability in the Motor business line and
good cost control.
Operating profit rose SEK 44 million or 53 per cent to SEK 127 million (83) as a result of the higher
operating income. The total combined ratio improved to 89.6 per cent (90.2 per cent), mainly as a
result of growth in premium earned and the positive trend in the claims ratio in the Motor and Product
business lines.

Notes to the condensed financial statements

G1. Accounting principles

Financial Reporting and with applicable provisions of the Swedish Annual Accounts Act for Credit Institutions and Securities Companies and the Swedish Reports in Credit Institutions and Securities Companies (FFFS 2008:25), as well as Accounting Rules for Corporate Groups.

In addition to IFRS 16, no new IFRS or IFRIC interpretations have entered into force since January 1, 2019. IFRS 16 replaces IAS 17 from 1 January 2019. Under the new standard, existing leases and right-of-use agreements are to be capitalised as assets and liabilities in the statement of financial position, with the associated effect that the cost in profit or loss is divided between depreciation in operating profit and interest expense in net financial items. The Group will be primarily affected by the right-of-use assets attributable to leases for premises and vehicle leases. For further information regarding current leases, see the Annual Report for 2018. Regarding the effect of IFRS 16, see note G2.

When the financial statements for 2019 were prepared, the company decided to on changes in the credit quality of the financial assets, in accordance with IFRS 9. Refer to Note G11 for credit losses, Note G12 for lending to the public and Note G13 for other provisions.

G2. Effect of IFRS 16, Leasing

The Group will be primarily affected by the right-of-use assets attributable to leases for premises and vehicle leases. The right-of-use asset has initially been measured at an amount corresponding to the lease liability, adjusted for any prepaid or accrued lease fees related to the lease agreement.

The right-of-use asset is reported in the item property, plant and equipment and the lease liability is reported in the item other liabilities in the statement of financial position.

The liability for unutilised lease obligations on 1 January 2019 amounts SEK 107 million and for unutilised right-of-use assets SEK 112 million. Equity has not been affected by the transition to IFRS 16. The average margin loan rate as at 1 January 2019 is 1.3 per cent.

G3. Financing - Consolidated situation

A core component of financing efforts is maintaining a well-diversified financing structure with access to several sources of financing. Access to a number of sources of financing means that it is possible to use the most appropriate source of financing at any particular time.

The main type of financing remains deposits from the public. This type of financing has been offered to customers in Sweden, Norway and Germany. Deposits, which are analysed on a regular basis, totalled SEK 24,647 million (20,773), whereof in Sweden SEK 11,391 million (14,056), in Norway SEK 6,601 million (6,337) and in Germany SEK 6,655 million (381). The lending to the public/deposits from the public ratio for the consolidated situation is 127 per cent (135 per cent).

Resurs Bank has a funding programme for issuing bonds, the programme amounts to SEK 8,000 million (8,000). Within the programme, Resurs Bank has been working successfully to issue bonds on a regular basis and sees itself as an established issuer on the market. Resurs Bank has primarily issued bonds in Sweden but also in Norway. At 31 December 2019 the program has eleven outstanding issues at a nominal amount of SEK 5,450 million (4,250). Of the eleven issues, nine are senior unsecured bonds and two issues are a subordinated loan of SEK 600 million (300).

Liquidity - Consolidated situation

Liquidity risk includes the risk of not being able to meet liquidity commitments without significantly higher costs.The consolidated situation, must maintain a liquidity reserve and have access to an unutilised liquidity margin in the event of irregular or unexpected liquidity flows.

responsibilities and monitoring and include a contingency plan. The purpose of the contingency plan is to make preparations for various courses of action should the liquidity situation trend unfavourably. The contingency plan includes, controlled and audited by independent functions.

Liquidity comprises both a liquidity reserve and another liquidity portfolio that is monitored on a daily basis. The main liquidity risk is deemed to arise in the event multiple depositors simultaneously withdraw their deposited funds. An internal model is used to set minimum requirements for the amount of the liquidity reserve, calculated based on deposit volumes, the proportion covered by deposit insurance and relationship to depositors. The model also takes into account the future maturities of issued securities. The Board has stipulated that the liquidity reserve may never fall below SEK 1,300 million. Apart from the liquidity reserve, there is an intraday liquidity requirement of at least 4 per cent of deposits from the public, a minimum SEK 700 million.There are also other liquidity requirements regulating and controlling the business.

Tier 1 capital comprises Common Equity Tier 1 capital and other Tier 1 capital. In December 2019, Resurs Holding AB issued Additional Tier 1 Capital of a nominal SEK 300 million. This Additional Tier 1 Capital is subordinated debt that meets some of the requirements to be eligible as Tier 1 capital when calculating the amount of the capital base. The accounting principle chosen means that the Additional Tier 1 Capital is to be classified as equity and payment to holders of these instruments, such as interest, is recognised in equity.

The Parent Company has prepared its interim report in accordance with the requirements in the Annual Accounts Act (AAA) and the Swedish Financial Reporting Board's recommendation RFR 2, Accounting for Legal Entities. The same accounting and valuation principles were applied as in the latest Annual report.

For detailed accounting principles for the Group, see the Annual report for 2018.

Resurs Bank AB Group and its Parent Company Resurs Holding AB.

The interim information on pages 2-31 comprises an integrated component of this financial report.

As at 31 December 2019, the liability for unutilised lease obligations amounts to SEK 91 million and for unutilised right-of-use assets SEK 95 million. The income statement has been affected by the fact that the lease payments (General administrative expenses) have been distributed between interest expense, SEK 1,355 thousand and depreciation amounting SEK 29,576 thousand.

The liquidity reserve, totalling SEK 1,918 million (1,899), is in accordance with Swedish Financial Supervisory Authority regulations on liquidity risk management (FFFS 2010:7) and applicable amendments thereto for the consolidated situation. Accordingly, assets are segregated, unutilised and of high quality. The liquidity reserve largely comprises assets with the highest credit quality rating.

In addition to the liquidity reserve, the consolidated situation has other liquid assets primarily comprised of cash balances with other banks. These assets are of high credit quality and total SEK 4,982 million (3,688) for the consolidated situation. Accordingly, total liquidity amounted to SEK 6,900 million (5,588) corresponds to 28 per cent (27 per cent) of deposits from the public. The Group also has unutilised credit facilities of NOK 50 million (50).

Liquidity Coverage Ratio (LCR) for the consolidated situation is reported to the authorities on a monthly basis. The LCR shows the ratio between high qualitative assets and net outflow during a 30-day stressed period. A ratio of 100 per cent means the assets managed the stress test scenario and is also the authority's limit. As at 31 December 2019, the ratio for the consolidated situation is 264 per cent (146 per cent). For the period January to December 2019, the avarage LCR measures 200 per cent for the conslidated situation.

G4. Capital adequacy - Consolidated situation
Capital requirements are calculated in accordance with European Parliament and
Council Regulation EU 575/2013 (CRR) and Directive 2013/36 EU (CRD IV). The
Directive was incorporated via the Swedish Capital Buffers Act (2014:966), and
prudential requirements and capital buffers (FFFS 2014:12). The capital
requirement calculation below comprises the statutory minimum capital
requirement for credit risk, credit valuation adjustment risk, market risk and
operational risk.
Credit risk is calculated by applying the standardised method under which the asset
items of the consolidated situation are weighted and divided between 17 different
exposure classes. The total risk-weighted exposure amount is multiplied by 8 per
cent to obtain the minimum capital requirement for credit risk. The capital
requirement for operational risk is from 20 September 2019 calculated by the
standardised method. Under this method, the capital requirement for operational
risks is 12 per cent of the income indicator (meaning average operating income for
capital base requirement for bonds and other interest-bearing securities.
The combined buffer requirement for the consolidated situation comprises a
capital conservation buffer and a countercyclical capital buffer. The capital
conservation buffer requirement amounts to 2.5 per cent of the risk-weighted
assets. The countercyclical capital buffer requirement is weighted according to
geographical requirements, which amounts to 2,5 per cent of the risk-weighted
assets for Swedish and Norwegian exposures. The countercyclical capital buffer
requirements increased from 2 per cent to 2.5 per cent for Norwegian exposures
from 31 December 2019. For Danish exposures a countercyclical capital buffer
requirement of 1 per cent of risk-weighted assets is effective from 30 September
2019 and to 1,5 per cent from June 2020 and is proposed at 2 per cent from 30
December 2020. The Group currently does not need to take into a buffer
requirement for its business areas in Finland.
The consolidated situation calculates the capital requirement for credit risk,
Resurs Bank has applied to the Swedish Financial Supervisory Authority for
permission to apply the transition rules decided at EU level in December 2017. Under
the transition rules, a gradual phase-in of the effect of IFRS 9 on capital adequacy
is permitted, regarding both the effect of the transition from IAS 39 as at 1 January
2018 and the effect on the reporting date that exceeds the amount when IFRS 9 is
first applied to stage 1 and stage 2. The phase-in period is as follows:
2018: 5 %, 2019: 10 %, 2020: 15 %, 2021: 20 %, 2022: 25 %, 2023: 25 %
In December 2019, Resurs Holding AB issued Additional Tier 1 Capital of a nominal
SEK 300 million. The notes have a perpetual tenor with a first call option after five
