INTERIM REPORT - Q1-Q3 2011
Sydbank
Summary
The Sydbank Group recorded a pre-tax profit of DKK 206m. The result is adversely affected by non-recurring items of DKK 146m and contributions to the deposit guarantee of DKK 136m in connection with the takeover by the Financial Stability Company of Amagerbanken, Fjordbank Mors and Max Bank. The development is slightly below the expectations at the beginning of the year.
Return on average shareholders' equity before tax constitutes 2.9% p.a. and is not satisfactory.
The Interim Report is characterised by:
- 2% decrease in core income excl trading income

Core earnings before impairment represent DKK 1,248m compared with DKK 1,647m in Q1-Q3 2010. The reduction of DKK 426m consists of a decline in core income excl trading income of DKK 52m, a decrease in trading income of DKK 353m and a rise in costs (core earnings) of DKK 21m.
Core earnings before impairment are at the lower end of our announcement in the 2010 Annual Report. The difference can be ascribed to lower trading income.
Impairment charges for loans and advances etc represent DKK 735m (Q1-Q3 2010: DKK 944m).
Investment portfolio earnings amount to minus DKK 25m.
Non-recurring items total minus DKK 146m and comprise:
- Severance pay etc to just under 100 dismissed employees in Denmark: minus DKK 53m
- Winding-up of the subsidiary bank in Switzerland: minus DKK 25m
INTERIM REPORT - Q1-Q3 2011
Sydbank
- Loss in connection with the sale of 24.9% of the share capital in Value-Call S.A. in Luxembourg: minus DKK 68m (The remaining portfolio of 25.0% has been recognised at DKK 8m.).
As stated in the most recent company announcement, the Group wishes to base its foreign private banking activities in Flensburg. The activities of Sydbank PBI in Gråsten have already been transferred. The winding-up of the subsidiary bank in Switzerland and the reduction of the ownership interest in Value-Call are also a consequence of the Group's strategic decision to enhance efficiency and to reorganise. The decisions are based on the need to adapt to the current market conditions. In future it is estimated that this will result in a more profitable, efficient and targeted organisation for the Group's foreign private banking clients.
Contributions to the deposit guarantee etc amount to DKK 136m.
Less a calculated tax charge of DKK 70m, profit for the period stands at DKK 136m.
Profit for the period equals a return on average shareholders' equity of 1.9% p.a. against 6.2% p.a. in 2010. Earnings per share represents DKK 1.9 compared with DKK 5.9 in 2010.
The Group's solvency ratio stands at 15.7%, of which 14.7 percentage points are ascribable to core capital, compared with 15.4% and 14.3 percentage points, respectively, at end-2010. The core capital ratio excluding hybrid core capital is 13.0% compared with 12.7% at the beginning of the year.
The Group's liquidity measured under the 10% statutory requirement constitutes 36.9% at 30 September 2011. As of 1 October 2011 Danmarks Nationalbank has expanded the collateral basis to include good quality credit claims. The Group does not expect to make use of the credit facility. The Group will however include the possible credit facility in the Group's strategic contingency resources.
In Q1-Q3 Sydbank saw a satisfactory influx of retail clients as well as corporate clients. Consequently the foundation for future earnings has been enhanced.
Development of the Bank
For the purpose of ensuring that the business continues to be sound and strong the following decisions have been made:
- the flat cost development in 2009 and 2010, which was achieved via a reduction in staff of around 200 employees, does not match the continued downturn in the economy and therefore the future level of costs will be reduced. As a consequence 89 employees were dismissed in October. It is expected that the number of full-time staff will total 2,175 at year-end.
- the service concept will be adjusted so that the cashier services in the majority of the Bank's branches will be available only during the afternoon hours.
- to reorganise the advisory services for foreign private banking clients.
- Sydbank (Schweiz) AG will transfer some of its clients to Nordea International Private Banking in Switzerland. The remaining activities will be discontinued.
- the Bank will further strengthen its German operations by taking over the private banking activities of Gries & Heissel Bankiers AG. The agreement concerns just over 1,000 clients and the main part of the business volume consists of custody accounts. As of 1 January 2012 the Bank will be represented in the following cities in Germany: Flensburg, Hamburg, Kiel, Berlin and Wiesbaden.
- to increase the interest rates of floating-rate loans by up to 0.50 percentage points as of 14 October 2011 while the market-determined margin increases made earlier this year will boost the Group's income from interest margins.
Outlook for 2011
The Group projects core earnings before impairment charges for loans and advances in the region of DKK 1,700-1,850m in 2011, which is a narrowing and clarification compared with the previous announcement of DKK 1.7-2.0bn. The narrowing is solely ascribable to the lower trading income and the uncertainty associated therewith for the remainder of the year.
INTERIM REPORT - Q1-Q3 2011
Sydbank
Financial Review
Core income excl trading income
Total core income excl trading income declined by 2% to DKK 2,440m.
| Core income excl trading income – Q1-Q3 (DKKm) | 2011 | 2010 |
|---|---|---|
| Interest margins etc | 2,063 | 2,073 |
| Mortgage credit | 131 | 165 |
| Payment services | 115 | 113 |
| Remortgaging and loan fees | 62 | 70 |
| Other commission | 54 | 54 |
| Other operating income | 15 | 17 |
| Total | 2,440 | 2,492 |
Despite a 5% decline in bank loans and advances and a 6% increase in deposits compared with 30 September 2010 net interest has only decreased by DKK 10m due to an increase in interest margins in the latter part of the period.
Net income from the cooperation with Totalkredit represents DKK 105m (2010: DKK 129m). Total mortgage credit income amounts to DKK 131m (2010: DKK 165m) and the development reflects the situation in the housing market.
The remaining income components of core income excl trading income declined by a total of DKK 8m compared with Q1-Q3 2010.
Trading income
Total trading income decreased by 34% – from DKK 1,051m in 2010 to DKK 698m in 2011.
This development must be seen in light of the fact that income in Q1-Q3 2010 was exceptionally high in a favourable market whereas income in Q1-Q3 2011 was adversely affected by lower investment appetite and trading activity among clients as well as high volatility in the financial markets in the wake of the debt crisis, which has had an adverse effect on interest rate derivative activities.
| Trading income – Q1-Q3 (DKKm) | 2011 | 2010 |
|---|---|---|
| Bonds | 119 | 257 |
| Shares | 143 | 211 |
| Currency | 149 | 169 |
| Money market | (33) | 104 |
| Asset management | 320 | 310 |
| Total | 698 | 1,051 |
Costs and depreciation
The Group's total costs and depreciation recorded DKK 2,106m, which is unchanged compared with 2010. An unchanged amount of DKK 8m can be attributed to investment portfolio earnings.
Non-recurring costs constitute DKK 78m which are made up of severance pay etc of DKK 53m to just under 100 employees and DKK 25m for the winding-up of the subsidiary bank, Sydbank (Schweiz) AG.
Finally, contributions to the deposit guarantee and the Private Contingency Association total DKK 130m in connection with the takeover by the Financial Stability Company of Amagerbanken, Fjordbank Mors and Max Bank. In Q1-Q3 2010 costs included an expense of DKK 227m to the Private Contingency Association.

Sydbank has closed one small branch in 2011. As part of the continuing expansion in Zealand, Q2 2011 saw the opening of two new branches in Amager – in Amagerbrogade and in Dragør – as well as a new branch in Hørsholm. The number of branches totals 104 in Denmark and unchanged three in Germany.

Capital
The Danish FSA has granted the Bank permission to prepay supplementary capital of DKK 200m in mid-November 2011.
At end-September 2011 shareholders' equity constitutes DKK 9,546m – a decline of DKK 8m since year-end 2010. The change comprises additions from profit for the period of DKK 136m, dividends on own shares of DKK 4m as well as disposals deriving from dividend distribution etc of DKK 84m and net purchases of own shares of DKK 64m.
Since year-end 2010 risk-weighted assets have decreased by DKK 1.4bn to DKK 72.3bn. The decline consists of a decrease in credit risk of DKK 2.9bn and a rise in market risk and operational risk of DKK 0.8bn and DKK 0.7bn, respectively. The decrease in credit risk is ascribable to a decline in loans and advances and guarantees as well as a positive trend in the average rating of the exposures covered by IRB. The development in the distributions at 30 September 2010, 31 December 2010 and 30 September 2011 appears below.
Gross exposures by rating category
Gross exposures consist of loans and advances, undrawn credit commitments, interest receivable, guarantees and counterparty risk on derivatives.

Measured under the 10% statutory requirements of section 152 of the Danish Financial Business Act, the Group's liquidity constitutes 36.9% as at 30 September 2011.
The run-off profile as of 30 September 2011 expressed by the so-called "Moody's chart" is shown below:
As shown in the "Moody's chart" the Group's liquidity will fall considerably in 12 months but will remain positive. The decline can be ascribed to the repayment of an existing senior loan of EUR 1bn.
The Group's liquidity is comfortable.
As of 1 October 2011 Danmarks Nationalbank has expanded the collateral basis to include good quality lending in DKK and EUR to Danish clients, which secures Danish credit institutions sizeable liquidity facilities.
The Group does not expect to make use of the facility and therefore it has deliberately chosen neither to include the facility in the Group's liquidity under section 152 nor in the "Moody's chart". The Group will however include the possible credit facility in the Group's strategic contingency resources.
Since the month of May the Group has been contemplating issuing a senior loan, partly to replace previous repayment in 2011 and partly to replace the above-mentioned existing senior loan. During the period it has not been possible to make such an issue on satisfactory terms due to the market conditions and the Group is therefore still awaiting a normalisation of the loan markets.
On the basis of the Group's comfortable liquidity – compared with slightly falling loans and advances and rising deposits, the Bank has decided to adopt a wait and see approach.

Ratings
On 19 May 2011 Moody's assigned the following ratings to Sydbank:
- Long-term debt: A2 (stable outlook)
- Short-term debt: P-1
- Individual financial strength: C (stable outlook)
Clients
In Q1-Q3 Sydbank saw a satisfactory influx of retail clients as well as corporate clients and the foundation for future earnings has been enhanced.
Regulation
In July 2011 the European Commission published its proposal for a revision of the Capital Requirements Directives (CRD IV). The main purpose of the proposal is to implement the Basel III rules in the EU. The draft directive must now be considered by the European Parliament and the Council of Ministers. The final directive will be adopted in 2012. The general rules will come into force in early 2013, but decisions on detailed rules regarding liquidity, for example, will be made subsequently, and transitional rules on capital requirements will apply for a number of years.
The proposal does not appear to significantly change the capital requirements introduced by the Basel III rules as described in the 2010 Annual Report. The Group estimates that its core capital ratio (excl hybrid core capital) of currently 13.0% will be impacted only marginally when the Directive has been fully phased in. The Group thus already complies with the future minimum capital requirements.
However as regards liquidity the proposal differs from Basel III in that Danish mortgage bonds can be included to a greater extent.
Outlook for 2011
The Group projects core earnings before impairment charges for loans and advances in the region of DKK 1,700-1,850m in 2011, which is a narrowing and clarification compared with the previous announcement of DKK 1.7-2.0bn. The narrowing is solely ascribable to the lower trading income and the uncertainty associated therewith for the remainder of the year.

Note 1
Accounting policies
The Interim Report has been prepared in accordance with IAS 34 “Interim Financial Reporting” as adopted by the EU and in compliance with additional Danish disclosure requirements for interim reports. As a result of the use of IAS 34, the presentation is less complete compared with the presentation of an annual report and the measurement principles are in compliance with IFRS.
The accounting policies are consistent with those adopted in the 2010 Annual Report, to which reference is made.
The 2010 Annual Report provides a comprehensive description of the accounting policies applied.
The measurement of certain assets and liabilities requires managerial estimates as to how future events will affect the value of such assets and liabilities. The significant estimates made by the management in the use of the Group’s accounting policies and the inherent considerable uncertainty of such estimates used in the preparation of the condensed interim report are identical to those used in the preparation of the annual report as at 31 December 2010.
The Group’s significant risks and the external elements which may affect the Group are described in detail in the 2010 Annual Report.

INTERIM REPORT - Q1-Q3 2011

Notes – the Group
Note 18 – continued
In February 2008 a group of minority shareholders (“Foreningen af Minoritetsaktionærer i bankTrelleborg”) filed a class action against Fonden for bankTrelleborg, Sydbank and the Danish FSA. The lawsuit concerns the legality of the compulsory redemption (section 144 of the Danish Financial Business Act) and the pricing of the shares in connection with the compulsory redemption. The shares were subsequently priced by appraisers in accordance with section 144 (6) of the Danish Financial Business Act. In late summer 2008 Fonden for bankTrelleborg paid the difference to the minority shareholders. On 7 December 2010 the Eastern High Court ruled that the compulsory redemption was not legal as the conditions of section 144 of the Danish Financial Business Act had not been met. However the Eastern High Court did not find that the minority shareholders had suffered a loss exceeding the consideration they had already received in connection with the compulsory redemption. Consequently the court did not sustain the claim of the minority shareholders for payment of additional consideration as regards the shares. The minority shareholders have filed an appeal with the Supreme Court and have at the same time applied for free legal aid which has been granted only partially.
Moreover, in 2009 the group of minority shareholders – by three named shareholders – filed an action against bankTrelleborg, now Sydbank A/S, regarding an inadequate prospectus in connection with the conversion of sparTrelleborg to bankTrelleborg. Exchange of pleadings is still ongoing but oral proceedings have been scheduled for end-February 2012.
On 21 January 2011 two class action claims were filed with the City Court of Copenhagen against Sydbank A/S. Both claims concern a potential responsibility over a prospectus regarding bankTrelleborg, now Sydbank A/S, in connection with the conversion of sparTrelleborg to bankTrelleborg in Q2 2007.
In addition, the Group is party to a number of legal actions. These actions are under continuous review and the necessary provisions made are based on an assessment of the risk of loss. Pending legal actions are not expected to have any significant impact on the financial position of the Group.
Note 19
Repo and reverse transactions
In connection with repo transactions, which involve selling securities to be repurchased at a later date, the securities remain on the balance sheet, and consideration received is recognised as a debt. Repo transaction securities are treated as assets provided as collateral for liabilities.
At 30 September 2011, the fair value of such securities stood at DKK 12,132m.
In connection with reverse transactions, which involve purchasing securities to be resold at a later date, the Group is entitled to sell or deposit them as collateral for other loans. The securities are not recognised in the balance sheet and consideration paid is recognised as a receivable.
At 30 September 2011, the fair value of such securities stood at DKK 9,462m.
Assets received as collateral in connection with reverse transactions may be sold to a third party. In such cases a negative portfolio may arise as a result of the accounting rules. This is recognised under “Other liabilities”.
Note 20
Collateral
As of 30 September 2011 the Group had deposited as collateral securities at a market value of DKK 620m with Danish and foreign exchanges and clearing centres etc in connection with margin calls and securities settlements etc.
Note 21
Related parties
