Financial Review

Core income

Core income has decreased by 3% to DKK 1,036m.

Core income – Q1 (DKKm) 2013 2012
Interest margins etc 662 719
Mortgage credit 66 58
Payment services 38 37
Remortgaging and loan fees 23 30
Commission and brokerage 82 76
Commission etc investment funds and pooled pension plans 83 77
Asset management 42 40
Custody account fees 18 17
Other income 22 17
Total 1,036 1,071

Net interest has decreased by DKK 57m due in part to a slight decline in interest margins.

Net income from the cooperation with Totalkredit represents DKK 51m (2012: DKK 45m) after a set-off of loss of DKK 5m (2012: DKK 6m). The cooperation with DLR Kredit has generated an income of DKK 15m (2012: DKK 12m). Total mortgage credit income amounts to DKK 66m (2012: DKK 58m).

Compared with 2012, remortgaging and loan fees have declined by DKK 7m and total DKK 23m. The decrease can be ascribed to lower remortgaging activity compared with one year ago.

Commission and brokerage income amounts to DKK 82m and has risen by DKK 6m compared with 2012. The increase is due to clients' reallocation of custody accounts as well as a rise in securities trading.

Commission etc concerning investment funds and pooled pension plans totals DKK 83m, equal to a rise of DKK 6m compared with 2012. The continued positive trend can be ascribed to a greater demand for Sydbank's pooled plans and investment fund products.

The remaining income components are at the same level as in 2012.

Trading income

Trading income has fallen from DKK 109m in 2012 to DKK 86m in 2013.

Trading income (DKKm) 31 Mar 2013 31 Mar 2012
Fixed Income 61 69
Equities 21 19
Money Market and Foreign Exchange 4 21
Total 86 109

The income generated by Sydbank Markets in Q1 2013 was 21% lower than in Q1 2012, but still slightly higher than anticipated.

The decline in income by Fixed Income of 12% compared to last year is primarily ascribable to lower remortgaging activity. Activity in the Danish bond market was generally lower in Q1 2013.

Equities has recorded a rise in income of 10%. The department has experienced higher client activity.

Money Market and Foreign Exchange has recorded a decline in income of 81%. Considerable volatility in the fixed income market in the beginning of Q1 2013 has influenced the result. The department has

experienced rising client activity as regards foreign exchange trading whereas derivatives trading has declined.

Costs and depreciation

The Group's total costs and depreciation recorded DKK 677m, equal to an increase of DKK 12m compared with Q1 2012.

Costs and depreciation – Q1 (DKKm) 2013 2012
Staff costs 365 365
Other administrative expenses 248 253
Amortisation, depreciation and impairment of intangible assets and property, plant and equipment 23 21
Other operating expenses 41 27
Total costs and depreciation 677 666
Distributed as follows:
Costs, core earnings 661 650
Costs, investment portfolio earnings 2 2
Costs, industry solutions 15 14

Costs (core earnings) represent DKK 661m compared to DKK 650m in Q1 2012. The development is partly ascribable to a rise in the Group's contribution to the Bank Department of the Deposit Guarantee Fund, which represents DKK 26m in Q1 2013 (2012: DKK 12m).

At end-Q1 2013, the Group's staff numbered 2,106 (full-time equivalent) compared with 2,132 at 31 March 2012.

Core earnings before impairment

Core earnings before impairment of loans and advances represent DKK 461m – a decrease of DKK 69m or 13% compared with one year ago.

Impairment of loans and advances etc

Impairment charges for loans and advances constitute DKK 349m (2012: DKK 297m). The impairment ratio represents 0.49% relative to bank loans and advances at 31 March 2013 and 0.45% relative to bank loans and advances and guarantees.

Sydbank

Compared with 31 March 2012, impaired bank loans and advances before impairment charges have increased by DKK 2,122m to DKK 5,713m, equal to 59%. DKK 1,536m of the increase is attributable to non-defaulted bank loans and advances and DKK 586m is ascribable to defaulted bank loans and advances. During the same period individually impaired bank loans and advances after impairment charges rose by DKK 992m, equal to 59%. Impairment charges for bank loans and advances subject to individual impairment represent 53.0% (end-March 2012: 52.8% and year-end 2012: 51.4%).

In Q1 2013 reported losses amount to DKK 122m (2012: DKK 82m).

Core earnings

Investment portfolio earnings

Together the Group's position-taking and liquidity handling generated earnings of DKK 87m in Q1 2013 compared to DKK 121m in 2012:

Investment portfolio earnings (DKKm) 31 Mar 2013 31 Mar 2012

Liquidity generation and liquidity reserves 26 (4)
Mandates (CDO) 10 18
Winding-up portfolio 3 0
Strategic shares (3) 7
Costs (2) (2)
Total 87 121

The main positions continue to be Danish mortgage bonds hedged by derivatives. A substantial part of the hedge was changed from EUR to DKK in December 2012.

Efforts to reduce the CDO portfolio continued during the period. As a result the portfolio was reduced to DKK 67m at 31 March 2013 and is still expected to be sold before the end of the year.

Contributions to industry solutions

The most recent data from the Winding-Up and Restructuring Department of the Deposit Guarantee Fund has resulted in an additional drawing on the loss guarantee as regards the Financial Stability Company A/S corresponding to DKK 15m (2012: DKK 14m). The increase is attributable to Fjordbank Mors and Spar Lolland.

Profit for the period

Profit before tax amounts to DKK 184m. Less a calculated tax charge of DKK 47m, profit for the period stands at DKK 137m compared with DKK 255m in 2012.

Q1 2013

Profit before tax for the quarter represents DKK 184m. Compared with Q4 2012 profit before tax reflects:

  • A decline in core income of DKK 31m, due in part to two fewer interest days

  • No non-recurring items (Q4 2012: a negative DKK 82m)

Gross exposures consist of loans and advances, undrawn credit commitments, interest receivable, guarantees and counterparty risk on derivatives. The graph comprises exposures treated according to IRB. Exposures relating to clients in default are not included in the breakdown by rating category. Impairment charges for exposures have not been deducted from the exposures.

Gross exposures by rating category show a positive development and account for an increasing share of the three best rating categories. The tightened impairment rules have generated a rise in the number of clients with objective evidence of impairment (OEI). The Group assigns all exposures to clients with OEI to rating category 9 and consequently exposures in this rating category have risen. Migration has predominantly taken place from rating categories 5-8.

The Group's solvency ratio stands at 15.7%, of which 15.3 percentage points are ascribable to core capital including hybrid core capital, compared with 15.9% and 15.6 percentage points, respectively, at year-end 2012. The core Tier 1 capital ratio stands at 13.7% (31 Dec 2012: 13.8%). At 31 March 2013 the individual solvency need constitutes 8.8% against 8.9% at the beginning of the year.

Interest rate risk

At 31 March 2013, the Group's interest rate risk stands at minus DKK 192m. The Group's exchange rate risk continues to be very low and its equity position modest.

Liquidity

The Group's liquidity measured under the 10% statutory requirement constitutes 24.8% at 31 March 2013.

Moody's 12-month curve shows that the Group is able to withstand a situation in which access to capital markets is cut off for a period of 12 months.

Note 1

Accounting policies

The Interim Report has been prepared in compliance 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.

As from 1 January 2013 the Group has implemented IFRS 13, the amendments to IFRS 1 and 7, the amendments to IAS 1 and 19 as well as improvements to IFRS (2009-2011).

IFRS 13 has replaced the guidance on fair value measurement that was previously part of the individual IFRSs with a single fair value definition and extensive guidance on its use. The standard influences the Group’s note disclosures.

None of the implemented amendments have had any impact on recognition or measurement.

Apart from the above the accounting policies are consistent with those adopted in the 2012 Annual Report, to which reference is made.

The 2012 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 2012.

The Group’s significant risks and the external elements which may affect the Group are described in greater detail in the 2012 Annual Report.

Note 17 – continued

On 18 January 2013 the Danish Supreme Court gave its ruling in an action filed by a group of minority shareholders (“Foreningen af Minoritetsaktionærer i bankTrelleborg”) on behalf of three former shareholders of bankTrelleborg. Sydbank, which acquired bankTrelleborg in 2008, was ordered to pay damages due to an inadequate prospectus which was prepared in 2007 in connection with the conversion of sparTrelleborg to bankTrelleborg A/S. Thus the Supreme Court overruled the high court judgment which had ruled in favour of Sydbank.

This Supreme Court judgment is of significant importance to two class action claims filed against Sydbank on 21 January 2011 of which the Danish Eastern High Court accepted one and rejected the other as a class action. Both decisions have been brought before the Supreme Court.

The prospectus was prepared with the assistance of professional advisers and prospectus liability insurance had been taken out. Sydbank has reported a claim to the insurance company and has made reservations regarding claims for contribution to the professional advisers and to Fonden for bankTrelleborg which sold the shares of bankTrelleborg to Sydbank.

Against this background Sydbank's assessment of its legal position is that the Bank will be covered by the insurance claim and the claims for contribution mentioned to the extent that it is ordered to pay damages in the two class actions.

Moreover 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 18

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.

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.

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”.

Financial instruments recognised at fair value

Measurement of financial instruments is based on quoted prices from an active market, on generally accepted valuation models with observable market data or on available data that only to a limited extent are observable market data.

Measurement of financial instruments for which prices are quoted in an active market or which are based on generally accepted valuation models with observable market data is not subject to significant estimates.

Note 24 – continued

As regards financial instruments where measurement is based on available data that only to a limited extent are observable market data, measurement is subject to estimates. Such financial instruments appear from the column non-observable input below and include unlisted shares and certain bonds, including CDOs, for which there is no longer an active market.

A 10% change in the calculated market value of financial assets measured on the basis of non-observable input will affect profit before tax by DKK 123m.
