Grupo Aval Acciones y Valores S.A. (“Grupo Aval”) is an issuer of securities in Colombia and in the United States, registered with Colombia’s National Registry of Shares and Issuers (Registro Nacional de Valores y Emisores) and the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). As such, it is subject to the control of the Superintendency of Finance and compliance with applicable U.S. securities regulation as a “foreign private issuer” under Rule 405 of the U.S. Securities Act of 1933. Grupo Aval is not a financial institution and is not supervised or regulated as a financial institution in Colombia.
As an issuer of securities in Colombia, Grupo Aval is required to comply with periodic reporting requirements and corporate governance, however, it is not regulated as a financial institution or as a holding company of banking subsidiaries and, thus, is not required to comply with capital adequacy regulations applicable to banks and other financial institutions. All of our banking subsidiaries (Banco de Bogotá, Banco de Occidente, Banco Popular and Banco AV Villas), Porvenir and Corficolombiana, are subject to inspection and surveillance as financial institutions by the Superintendency of Finance.
Although we are not a financial institution, until December 31, 2014 we prepared the unaudited consolidated financial information included in these quarterly reports in accordance with the regulations of the Superintendency of Finance for financial institutions and generally accepted accounting principles for banks to operate in Colombia, also known as Colombian Banking GAAP because we believe that presentation on that basis most appropriately reflected our activities as a holding company of a group of banks and other financial institutions.
However, in 2009 the Colombian Congress enacted Law 1314 establishing the implementation of IFRS in Colombia. As a result, since January 1, 2015 financial entities and Colombian issuers of publicly traded securities such as Grupo Aval must prepare financial statements in accordance with IFRS. IFRS as applicable under Colombian regulations differs in certain aspects from IFRS as currently issued by the IASB.
The unaudited consolidated financial information included in this document is presented in accordance with IFRS as currently issued by the IASB. Details of the calculations of non-GAAP measures such as ROAA and ROAE, among others, are explained when required in this report.
Because of our recent migration to IFRS and recent implementation of IFRS accounting principles, the unaudited consolidated financial information for the second and third quarters of 2017, and the third quarter of 2016, may be subject to further amendments.
This report may include forward-looking statements, which actual results may vary from those stated herein as a consequence of changes in general, economic and business conditions, changes in interest and currency rates and other risks factors as evidenced in our Form 20-F available at the SEC webpage. Recipients of this document are responsible for the assessment and use of the information provided herein. Grupo Aval will not have any obligation to update the information herein and shall not be responsible for any decision taken by investors in connection with this document. The content of this document and the unaudited figures included herein are not intended to provide full disclosure on Grupo Aval or its affiliates.
When applicable, in this document we refer to billions as thousands of millions.

Bogotá, November 27th, 2017. GRUPO AVAL ACCIONES Y VALORES S.A. (“Grupo Aval”) reports a consolidated attributable net income result of Ps 437.9 billion for 3Q17 versus a Ps 470.8 billion figure reported for 2Q17. ROAE for the quarter was 11.2% and ROAA for the quarter was 1.3%.
The following are the key messages of the quarter (1/2):
| • | There are a few indications which point to a recovery of the Colombian economy – GDP grew at 2% during 3Q2017 after observed growths of 1.2% in 2Q17 and 1.3% in 1Q17. Monthly inflation numbers keep coming in lower than consensus which bodes well for an annual inflation within the Central Bank’s target of less than 4%. Stability has returned to the COP/USD exchange rate and current account, trade and fiscal deficits are slowly subsiding. |
| • | In any case, growth will be notoriously shy of our expectation at the beginning of the year. In fact, this year’s GDP growth will likely only be of approximately 1.70%. However, should these trends continue, we estimate that 2018’s GDP growth will near 2.50%. |
| • | As we have said in previous calls, a slow economy has underpinned the slow growth in our loan portfolios. In fact, as we advised in our previous call, Aval banks have principally focused their efforts in controlling the deterioration of the qualities of their loan portfolios. This strategy has probably resulted in slower growth than our peers, but in our opinion has proven right. Evidence of the success of our strategy is observable upon comparing the quality of the loan portfolios of our banks versus the rest of the financial system. However, credit exposures to problem clients such as Electricaribe and SITP continued to impact our results during the third quarter, as will be further explained in the presentation, but the impact of the Electricaribe loan provisions is expected to be materially done by early 2018. |
| • | On the positive side and proving our net assets sensitiveness, despite continuing to see a steep declining interest rate environment, our NIM only declined by approximately 15 bps during 3Q17. During 2017 NIM resilience has offset to some extent the increase in the provision expense and thus has limited the negative impact of the increase in the cost of risk in the ROE. Declining interest rates are expected to continue as well as NIM’s but we expect that our cost of risk will also decline setting up ourselves for a stronger ROE in 2018. |
| • | During 3Q2017, Porvenir continued to perform very favorably supported in: i) increase in new funds coming into the system, and ii) high returns on its AUM. On the other hand, Corficolombiana, continued its lackluster year as a result of a slow start in its infrastructure projects largely as a consequence of the financial system’s uncertainty regarding the legal grounds for the final value to be recognized to the sponsors and financiers of Ruta del Sol in the liquidation of this project. This issue was just addressed in a manner that we deem fair for all involved via a modification to the Infrastructure Law which was recently approved by Congress and is only awaiting Presidential sanction. The next step which we expect to take place in December is that the ANI approves the long-awaited first payment to the Ruta del Sol financial creditors. |
| • | Our Central American operation (30% of our business) continues to perform strongly. Growth seen in BAC’s loan book (in USD) is greater than our Colombian loan portfolios, cost of risk is controlled (despite some events in Costa Rica and Panamá), efficiency is improving and ROE is sustained. This continues to prove to be an excellent investment for Aval and a great source of diversification. |

The following are the key messages of the quarter (2/2):
| • | On a consolidated basis, during 3Q17 our total loans declined 0.2% versus 2Q17 (0.9% increase in absence of the impact of the close to 4% revaluation of the currency during the period). In the last twelve months our consolidated loan book grew by 7.9% (7.3% in absence of FX movements). |
| • | Our 30 day PDL and our 90 day NPL deteriorated by approximately 20 bps in the quarter to 4.0% and 2.7% respectively. The positive element in this quarter, on this regard, is that our consumer portfolio quality improved 10 bps versus the previous quarter. This is clearly differentiating us versus our peers as their indicators continue to show deterioration while they continue to grow faster than we do. A second positive element is that the PDL formation continues to show a positive trend. |
| • | Cost of risk for the quarter, net of recoveries, was 2.6% versus 2.7% in the previous quarter, including a Ps. 150,000 mm provision expense related to Electricaribe (versus Ps. 108,000 mm during 2Q17). Electricaribe accounted for 40 bps of the cost of risk during the quarter. |
| • | Total Deposits declined by 2.2% in the quarter (-1.1% excluding the impact of FX movement in our Central American operation) and in the last twelve months Deposits grew by 7.9% (+7.3% excluding FX movements), once again evidencing a deceleration during 3Q17 in sync with a slow economy. |
| • | Partly as a consequence of the continued growth slowdown and partly as a consequence of the FX revaluation of the period, the third quarter was one in which our consolidated equity ratios improved. Our total equity to total assets ratio improved from 10.7% in June 30, 2017 to 11.0% in September 30, 2017 and our tangible capital ratio improved from 7.6% to 8.0%. |
| • | As mentioned before, the NIM of our consolidated operation declined by approximately 15 bps to 5.9% during the quarter. Our consolidated NIM on loans remained constant at 7.0% during the quarter and our consolidated NIM on total investments had a sub-stellar performance with a ratio of 0.3% versus 1.4% in the previous quarter. |
| • | Our gross fee Income grew by 1.0% in the quarter when compared to the second quarter of 2017. This performance continues to surpass the growth of our balance sheet. |
| • | Our other operating income for the period was Ps. 525.2 billion for the quarter versus Ps. 493.1 billion in the previous quarter supported by a better performance of our Non-financial sector. |
| • | Our consolidated efficiency ratio showed a slight improvement measured as cost to income: 46.8% in 3Q17 versus 46.9% during 2Q17. |
| • | Our implicit tax rate was 40.3% which compares negatively versus 35.6% during the previous quarter. This is due to some recoveries that we had during the first semester of the year. |
| • | As mentioned before, partly as a result of continuing provision expenses attributable net income for the quarter was Ps 437.9 billion or 20 pesos per share, compared to Ps. 470.8 billion in 2Q17. |

Growth in assets was mainly driven by an 8.2% year over year growth in total loans and receivables, net to Ps 155,019.9 billion.

Item 2
1 IFRS 3Q17 Consolidated Earnings Results
2 Grupo Aval Acciones y Valores S . A . (“Grupo Aval”) is an issuer of securities in Colombia and in the United States, registered with Colombia’s National Registry of Shares and Issuers (Registro Nacional de Valores y Emisores) and the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) . As such, it is subject to the control of the Superintendency of Finance and compliance with applicable U . S . securities regulation as a “foreign private issuer” under Rule 405 of the U . S . Securities Act of 1933 . Grupo Aval is not a financial institution and is not supervised or regulated as a financial institution in Colombia . As an issuer of securities in Colombia, Grupo Aval is required to comply with periodic reporting requirements and corporate governance, however, it is not regulated as a financial institution or as a holding company of banking subsidiaries and, thus, is not required to comply with capital adequacy regulations applicable to banks and other financial institutions . All of our banking subsidiaries (Banco de Bogotá, Banco de Occidente, Banco Popular and Banco AV Villas), Porvenir and Corficolombiana, are subject to inspection and surveillance as financial institutions by the Superintendency of Finance . Although we are not a financial institution, until December 31 , 2014 we prepared the unaudited consolidated financial information included in these quarterly reports in accordance with the regulations of the Superintendency of Finance for financial institutions and generally accepted accounting principles for banks to operate in Colombia, also known as Colombian Banking GAAP because we believe that presentation on that basis most appropriately reflected our activities as a holding company of a group of banks and other financial institutions . However, in 2009 the Colombian Congress enacted Law 1314 establishing the implementation of IFRS in Colombia . As a result, since January 1 , 2015 financial entities and Colombian issuers of publicly traded securities such as Grupo Aval must prepare financial statements in accordance with IFRS . IFRS as applicable under Colombian regulations differs in certain aspects from IFRS as currently issued by the IASB . The unaudited consolidated financial information included in this document is presented in accordance with IFRS as currently issued by the IASB . Details of the calculations of non - GAAP measures such as ROAA and ROAE, among others, are explained when required in this report . Because of our recent migration to IFRS and recent implementation of IFRS accounting principles, the unaudited consolidated f ina ncial information for the second and third quarters of 2017, and the third quarter of 2016, may be subject to further amendments. This report may include forward - looking statements, which actual results may vary from those stated herein as a consequence of changes in general, economic and business conditions, changes in interest and currency rates and other risks factors as evidenced in our Form 20 - F available at the SEC webpage . Recipients of this document are responsible for the assessment and use of the information provided herein . Grupo Aval will not have any obligation to update the information herein and shall not be responsible for any decision taken by investors in connection with this document . The content of this document and the unaudited figures included herein are not intended to provide full disclosure on Grupo Aval or its affiliates . When applicable, in this document we refer to billions as thousands of millions . Disclaimer
3 Key messages of the quarter (1/2) • There are a few indications which point to a recovery of the Colombian economy – GDP grew at 2% during 3Q2017 after observed growths of 1.2% in 2Q17 and 1.3% in 1Q17. Monthly inflation numbers keep coming in lower than consensus which bodes well for an annual inflation within the Central Bank’s target of less than 4%. Stability has returned to the COP/USD exchange rate and cu rre nt account, trade and fiscal deficits are slowly subsiding. • In any case, growth will be notoriously shy of our expectation at the beginning of the year. In fact, this year’s GDP growth wil l likely only be of approximately 1.70%. However, should these trends continue, we estimate that 2018’s GDP growth will near 2.50%. • As we have said in previous calls, a slow economy has underpinned the slow growth in our loan portfolios. In fact, as we advi sed in our previous call, Aval banks have principally focused their efforts in controlling the deterioration of the qualities of their loan portfolios. This strategy has probably resulted in slower growth than our peers, but in our opinion has proven right. Evidence of the success of our strategy is observable upon comparing the quality of the loan portfolios of our banks versus the rest of the financial system . H owever, credit exposures to problem clients such as Electricaribe and SITP continued to impact our results during the third quarter, as will be further explained in the presentation, but the impact of the Electricaribe loan provisions is expected to be materially done by early 2018. • On the positive side and proving our net assets sensitiveness, despite continuing to see a steep declining interest rate envi ron ment, our NIM only declined by approximately 15 bps during 3Q17. During 2017 NIM resilience has offset to some extent the increase in t he provision expense and thus has limited the negative impact of the increase in the cost of risk in the ROE. Declining interest ra tes are expected to continue as well as NIM’s but we expect that our cost of risk will also decline setting up ourselves for a strong er ROE in 2018. • During 3Q2017, Porvenir continued to perform very favorably supported in: i) increase in new funds coming into the system, and ii) high returns on its AUM. On the other hand, Corficolombiana, continued its lackluster year as a result of a slow start in its infr ast ructure projects largely as a consequence of the financial system’s uncertainty regarding the legal grounds for the final value to be re cognized to the sponsors and financiers of Ruta del Sol in the liquidation of this project. This issue was just addressed in a manner tha t w e deem fair for all involved via a modification to the Infrastructure Law which was recently approved by Congress and is only awaiting Pr esi dential sanction. The next step which we expect to take place in December is that the ANI approves the long - awaited first payment to the Ruta del Sol financial creditors. • Our Central American operation (30% of our business) continues to perform strongly. Growth seen in BAC’s loan book (in USD) i s g reater than our Colombian loan portfolios, cost of risk is controlled (despite some events in Costa Rica and Panamá), efficiency is imp roving and ROE is sustained. This continues to prove to be an excellent investment for Aval and a great source of diversification. • On a consolidated basis, during 3Q17 our total loans declined 0.2% versus 2Q17 (0.9% increase in absence of the impact of the cl ose to 4% revaluation of the currency during the period). In the last twelve months our consolidated loan book grew by 7.9% (7.3% in ab sence of FX movements).
4 • Our 30 day PDL and our 90 day NPL deteriorated by approximately 20 bps in the quarter to 4.0% and 2.7% respectively. The posi tiv e element in this quarter, on this regard, is that our consumer portfolio quality improved 10 bps versus the previous quarter. Thi s is clearly differentiating us versus our peers as their indicators continue to show deterioration while they continue to grow fa ste r than we do. A second positive element is that the PDL formation continues to show a positive trend. • Cost of risk for the quarter, net of recoveries, was 2.6% versus 2.7% in the previous quarter, including a Ps. 150,000 mm pro vis ion expense related to Electricaribe (versus Ps. 108,000 mm during 2Q17). Electricaribe accounted for 40 bps of the cost of risk dur ing the q uarter. • Total Deposits declined by 2.2% in the quarter ( - 1.1% excluding the impact of FX movement in our Central American operation) and in the last twelve months Deposits grew by 7.9% (+7.3% excluding FX movements), once again evidencing a deceleration during 3Q17 in sync with a slow economy. • Partly as a consequence of the continued growth slowdown and partly as a consequence of the FX revaluation of the period, the third quarter was one in which our consolidated equity ratios improved. Our total equity to total assets ratio improved from 10.7% in June 30, 2017 to 11.0% in September 30, 2017 and our tangible capital ratio improved from 7.6% to 8.0%. • As mentioned before, the NIM of our consolidated operation declined by approximately 15 bps to 5.9% during the quarter. Our consolidated NIM on loans remained constant at 7.0 % during the quarter and our consolidated NIM on total investments had a sub - stellar performance with a ratio of 0.3% versus 1.4% in the previous quarter. • Our gross fee Income grew by 1.0% in the quarter when compared to the second quarter of 2017. This performance continues to surpass the growth of our balance sheet. • Our other operating income for the period was Ps. 525.2 billion for the quarter versus Ps. 493.1 billion in the previous quarter supported by a better performance of our Non - financial sector. • Our consolidated efficiency ratio showed a slight improvement measured as cost to income: 46.8% in 3Q17 versus 46.9% during 2Q17. • Our implicit tax rate was 40.3% which compares negatively versus 35.6% during the previous quarter. This is due to some recov eri es that we had during the first semester of the year. • As mentioned before, partly as a result of continuing provision expenses attributable net income for the quarter was Ps 437.9 billion or 20 pesos per share, compared to Ps. 470.8 billion in 2Q17.
