• Excluding Russia and Belarus, net interest income of EUR 3,399
million, up 37% year-over-year due to higher interest rates and
volumes
• Net fee and commission income excluding Russia and Belarus of EUR
1,739 million, up 16% year-over-year
• Net trading income and fair value result, excluding Russia and
Belarus, up EUR 179 million year-over-year, due to increased FX market
making activities and credit spreads of own issues
• Customer loan growth of 6% (excl. Russia and Belarus) with double
digit growth in key CE and SEE markets
• EUR 982 million consolidated profit (up 35% year-over-year), excluding
Russia and Belarus as well as gain on sale of the Bulgarian units (EUR
453 million)
• Risk costs of EUR 949 million, of which EUR 490 million booked in
Russia and Belarus, and build-up of risk overlays (provisioning ratio
of 0.73%); NPE ratio unchanged from previous year at 1.6%
• CET1 ratio at 16.0% (transitional, incl. result), driven by strong
consolidated profit and RWA optimization; 14.0% excluding Russia
• From the current perspective earnings from Russia and Belarus cannot
be distributed
• The board will recommend a dividend of up to EUR 0.80 per share from
the net profit for financial year 2022 although the timing of the
decision is uncertain and unlikely to be made at the upcoming AGM (30
March 2023). The date of the decision and a resolution in an EGM will
be chosen subject to capital ratios and ongoing strategic
considerations.
