HIGHLIGHTS

 

    Net income for the second quarter amounted to Ps.1,664 million, Ps.511 million (44.3%) higher than in the same quarter of the 2016 fiscal year.

 

    The growth in results when compared to the second quarter of the 2016 fiscal year was mainly attributable to the 51.4% growth in net operating income,(1) due to the higher level of intermediation with the private sector, partially offset by the 100.4% increase in provisions for loan losses and by the 35.5% increase in administrative expenses, due to the higher level of activity and to the evolution of expenses.

 

    The credit exposure to the private sector reached Ps.182,134 million, up 51.6% during the last twelve months, and deposits reached Ps.158,623 million, up 34.1% during the same period. As of June 30, 2017, the Bank’s estimated market share of loans to the private sector was 10.38% while its estimated market share of deposits from the private sector was 9.51%.

 

    The non-accrual loan portfolio represented 3.59% of total loans to the private sector, recording an increase of 15 basis points (“bp”) from the 3.44% recorded at the end of the same quarter of fiscal year 2016, while its coverage with allowances for loan losses reached 100.02%, 3.24 percentage points lower than a year before.

 

    In the framework of the Credit Line for Production Financing and Financial Inclusion, as of June 30, 2017, the Bank granted the mandatory amount established by certain regulations in force. As of the end of the quarter, the outstanding amount of loans granted within the framework of this credit line reached Ps.11,212 million.

 

    As of the end of the quarter, shareholders’ equity amounted to Ps.22,050 million, and the computable capital was Ps.25,477 million, representing a Ps.7,793 million (or 44.1%) surplus over the capital requirement, and reaching a regulatory capital ratio of 11.80%.

The variation in net income was a consequence of the Ps.3,236 million increase in operating income, which was offset mainly by increases of Ps.1,451 million in administrative expenses, Ps.726 million in provisions for loan losses and Ps.348 million in income tax.

The operating income for the second quarter of the 2017 fiscal year totaled Ps.9,533 million, up 51.4% from the Ps.6,297 million recorded in the same quarter of the prior year. This positive development was due to both a higher net financial income (up Ps.2,234 million or 61.6%) and a higher net income from services (up Ps.1,002 million or 37.5%).

The net financial income for the quarter included a Ps.403 million gain from foreign-currency quotation differences (including the results from foreign-currency forward transactions), compared to a Ps.89 million loss in the second quarter of the previous fiscal year. The quarter’s profit was composed of a Ps.414 million gain from FX brokerage and of a Ps.11 million loss from the valuation of the foreign-currency net position and the results of foreign-currency forward transactions, compared to a Ps.268 million profit and a Ps.357 million loss, respectively, in the second quarter of the 2016 fiscal year.

The quarter’s net financial income before foreign-currency quotation differences amounted to Ps.5,457 million, which represented a Ps.1,742 million (46.9%) increase, as compared to the Ps.3,715 million income recorded the same quarter of the 2016 fiscal year, and was mainly due to the increase in the portfolio of loans to the private sector together with a higher spread.

(*) Does not include foreign-currency quotation differences. Annual nominal interest rates were calculated using a 360-day denominator.

The average interest-earning assets grew by Ps.48,155 million (38.3%) as compared to the second quarter of the previous fiscal year, primarily as a consequence of the Ps.44,664 million increase in the average portfolio of loans to the private sector (42.2%). Interest-bearing liabilities increased Ps.42,164 million (44.1%) during the same period, primarily due to a Ps.27,511 million increase in the average balances of saving deposits (113.5%), mainly due to the Tax Amnesty Law.

The average yield on interest-earning assets for the second quarter of the 2017 fiscal year was 22.85%, with a 521 bp decrease compared to the same quarter of the prior year, mainly due to decreases of 461 bp in interest rate on loans and of 789 bp in interest rate on government securities. Likewise, the average cost of interest-bearing liabilities was 10.96%, with an 862 bp decrease compared to the second quarter of the prior year, mainly due to the decrease in the average interest rate on time deposits, for 961 bp.

Net income from services amounted to Ps.3,673 million, up 37.5% from the Ps.2,671 million recorded in the second quarter of the previous fiscal year. The increases in fees which stood out were those related to regional credit cards (37.3%), deposit accounts (53.4%) and credit (147.7%).

Provisions for loan losses for the second quarter of the 2017 fiscal year amounted to Ps.1,449 million, Ps.726 million higher than those recorded in the same quarter of the prior year, due to the evolution of credits in arrears of the consumer portfolio and to higher regulatory provisions on the portfolio in normal situations as a consequence of the increase in the volume of credit.

Administrative expenses for the quarter totaled Ps.5,533 million, up 35.5% from the same quarter of the previous year. Personnel expenses amounted to Ps.2,991 million, growing 31.8%, mainly as a consequence of salary increase agreements with the unions, a provision related to certain compensations and to non-recurring human resources expenses. The remaining administrative expenses amounted to Ps.2,273 million, with a Ps.714 million (45.8%) increase as compared to the Ps.1,558 million from the second quarter of the 2016 fiscal year, which was mainly due to increases in cash transportation, electricity and communications, security services, maintenance and taxes that resulted from an increase in the level of activity and of expenses related to services provided to the Bank.

Net other income for the quarter amounted to Ps.126 million, representing a decrease of Ps.200 million as compared to the same quarter of the prior year.

The income tax charge was Ps.1,013 million, Ps.348 million higher than in the second quarter of the 2016 fiscal year.

As of June 30, 2017, the Bank’s deposits amounted to Ps.158,623 million, representing a 34.1% increase during the last twelve months, as a consequence of the 13.8% increase in peso-denominated deposits and a 126.8% increase in dollar-denominated deposits, mainly due to the Tax Amnesty Law. During the quarter, deposits recorded a decrease of 0.2%—with a growth of 0.8% for peso-denominated deposits and a decrease of 8.8% for dollar-denominated deposits—due to a lower balance of time deposits, which decreased Ps.8,227 million (14.4%), partially offset by a Ps.7,723 million (33.9%) increase in transactional deposits (current accounts and saving accounts).

As of June 30, 2017, other financial liabilities amounted to Ps.62,082 million, Ps.3,887 million or 6.7% higher than the Ps.58,195 million recorded a year before. This growth was mainly due to the increase of: (i) notes, for Ps.4,023, related to transactions of Banco Galicia, Tarjeta Naranja S.A., Tarjetas Cuyanas S.A. and CFA S.A., partially offset by the amortizations made during the last twelve months; and (ii) financing from merchants in connection with credit card activities, for Ps.3,289 million.

As of June 30, 2017, the Bank had 4.3 million deposit accounts, which represented an increase of approximately 380,000 accounts as compared with the same date of the previous year. Likewise, the number of credit cards reached 13.6 million, 688,000 less than those managed a year before, mainly due to the sale of Tarjetas del Mar S.A., which managed 446,000 credit cards as of the end of June 2016.

As of June 30, 2017, the Bank’s consolidated computable capital was Ps.7,793 million (44.1%) higher than the Ps.17,684 million capital requirement. As of June 30, 2016, this excess amounted to Ps.4,0913 million or 33.9%.

The minimum capital requirement increased by Ps.5,631 million as compared to June 30, 2016, mainly as a result of higher requirements of: (i) Ps.4,404 million due to the growth of the private-sector loan portfolio; and (ii) Ps.928 million on operational risk.

Computable capital increased Ps.9,333 million as compared to June 30, 2016, mainly as a consequence of a higher Tier I capital, for Ps.5,292 million, due to the higher net income, partially offset by higher deductions, resulting from organization and development expenses. Tier II capital recorded a Ps.4,041 million increase, mainly due to: (i) 100% of the subordinated notes issued on July 19, 2016, for US $250 million which proceeds were used to cancel in advance the subordinated notes due in 2019, of which 24% was considered as computable capital; and (ii) the higher balance of the provision for loan losses on the credit portfolio in normal situation.

RECENT DEVELOPMENTS

CAPITAL INCREASE PROPOSAL

On July 13, 2017, the Board of Directors of Grupo Financiero Galicia called all of its shareholders to an Ordinary and Extraordinary Shareholders’ Meeting to be held on August 15, 2017, in order to consider a capital increase for a maximum issuance of up to 150,000,000 new ordinary class B shares, book-entry, with a right to one (1) vote and a face value of Ps.1 (one Peso) per share.

NOTES

On May 18, 2017, Banco Galicia issued Notes for Ps.2,000 million, with a maturity of 36 months from the date of issue and settlement. The notes accrue interest at a floating rate equivalent to the simple arithmetic average of private Badlar rates plus 2.98%, which will be paid quarterly, beginning on August 18, 2017.

On July 27, 2017, Grupo Financiero Galicia settled the total outstanding amount of its Class VII Notes, for a face value of Ps.160 million.

IFRS REGULATIONS

Beginning with the financial statements corresponding to the first quarter of the 2017 fiscal year, the adjustments corresponding to the application of IFRS are reported as a note to the balance sheet. IFRS will be fully applied from fiscal year 2018. As of June 30, 2017, the adjustment to Banco Galicia’s net worth as a result of the application of these standards amounted to Ps.3,267 million, reaching an adjusted net worth of Ps.25,316 million. For Grupo Financiero Galicia, the adjustment amounted to Ps.2,957 million and the adjusted balance to Ps.26,506 million. These figures are subject to change and may only be considered definitive when preparing the annual financial statements for the year in which IFRS are applied for the first time.

DISTRIBUTION NETWORK

After the end of the quarter, the Bank increased its distribution network with the opening of a new branch in the province of Santa Fe (Boulevard Alberdi, Rosario).

REGULATORY CHANGES

CREDIT LINE FOR PRODUCTION FINANCING AND FINANCIAL INCLUSION

Through its Communiqué “A“6259, issued on June 23, the Argentine Central Bank established a new amount to be granted under “Credit Line for Production Financing and Financial Inclusion” for the second half of 2017, at the end of which financial institutions must have a balance of financing equivalent to at least 18% of deposits of non-financial private sector in pesos, calculated based on the monthly average of daily balances of May 2017. For these purposes, the simple average of the daily balances of existing loans between July 1 and December 31, 2017, will be considered. The line has a 17% annual interest rate.

 

This report is a summary analysis of Grupo Financiero Galicia’s financial condition and results of operations as of and for the periods indicated. For a correct interpretation, this report must be read in conjunction with Grupo Financiero Galicia’s financial statements, as well as with all other material periodically filed with the Argentine National Securities Commission (www.cnv.gob.ar), the Buenos Aires Stock Exchange (www.bolsar.com), the Cordoba Stock Exchange (www.bolsacba.com.ar) and the Nasdaq (www.nasdaq.com). In addition, the Argentine Central Bank (www.bcra.gob.ar) may publish information related to Banco Galicia as of a date subsequent to the last date for which the Bank has published information.
