Grupo Supervielle S.A. Reports 3Q19 Consolidated Results

 

3Q19 Net Income of AR$301 million and Comprehensive net income of AR$732.1 million.

 

Results Reflect Short-Term Treasury Notes Reprofiling in Complex Macro Environment

 

Buenos Aires, November 7, 2019 - Grupo Supervielle S.A. (NYSE: SUPV; BYMA: SUPV), (“Supervielle” or the “Company”) a universal financial services group headquartered in Argentina with a nationwide presence, today reported results for the three- and nine-month periods ended September 30, 2019. All figures presented throughout this document are expressed in nominal Argentine pesos (AR$) and all financial information has been prepared in accordance with IFRS in compliance with the adoption ruled by the Argentine Central Bank.

 

Third Quarter 2019 Highlights

 

·                  Revenues up 20.9% year over year (YoY) supported by growth of 20.3% in Net Financial Income and 31.3% in fee income, but down 13.5% quarter over quarter (QoQ), driven by 19.5% decrease in Net Financial Income while Net Service Fee Income was up 8.6%. 3Q19 revenues were impacted by a AR$2.0 billion loss reflecting mark to market accounting of short term AR$ and U$S treasury notes held by Supervielle (amounting to approximately 3% of assets). Fixed income instrument prices declined between 35% and 45% following the debt reprofiling announced by the Argentine government.

 

·                  Net Financial Income of AR$5.3 billion, was up 20.3% YoY but down 19.5% QoQ mainly impacted by the debt reprofiling. Interest on loans benefitted from additional repricing in personal loans. Excluding the debt reprofiling impact, Net Financial Income would have increased 12% QoQ to AR$7.3 billion in 3Q19

 

·                  Net Interest Margin (NIM) of 17.4%, up 80 basis points (bps) YoY but down 470 bps QoQ mainly reflecting the abovementioned debt reprofiling effect. AR$ Loan portfolio NIM in the quarter was 24.2% compared to 23.8% in 2Q19 driven by continuing repricing in loans to individuals. Excluding the debt reprofiling loss, NIM would have been 24.1%.

 

·                  Loan loss provisions (LLP) totaled AR$2.0 billion in 3Q19, increasing 78.8% YoY and 65.8% QoQ. The increase in LLPs mainly reflects the partial provisioning on certain commercial loans coming from the Public Works Contracting and Retailer sectors that became delinquent during the period. As these NPLs were not 100% provisioned given the collaterals associated with them (provisioning exceeded the Central Bank requirement), the coverage ratio decreased to 86.1% from 107.7% in 2Q19. As of September 30, 2019, collateralized non-performing commercial loans were 55% of total, compared with 20% as of June 30, 2019. The Company expects to foreclose and divest those collaterals in the upcoming quarters..

 

·                  Efficiency ratio was 70.4% in 3Q19 increasing 1,110 bps YoY, and 801 bps QoQ.  A decline in expenses of 2.3% was offset by lower revenues due to the debt reprofiling. Excluding the impact of the debt reprofiling, 3Q19 efficiency ratio would have been 53%. 2Q19 results included AR$ 273 million in non-recurring severance charges, while the efficiency ratio includes the impact from IFRS16 adoption since January 2019.

 

·                  Loss before income tax of AR$116.5 million in 3Q19 compared to a AR$1.0 billion profit in 3Q18 and a AR$1.6 billion profit in 2Q19. Excluding the impact of the debt reprofiling, 3Q19 pre-tax profit would have amounted to AR$ 1.9 billion, up 88% YoY and 23% QoQ. Attributable Net income of AR$301.0 million in 3Q19, declined from AR$867.4 million in 3Q18 and AR$1.9 billion in 2Q19. Income tax recorded a positive result of AR$ 417.8 million mainly from the inflation adjustment in the income tax provision.

 

·                  ROAE of 6.2% in 3Q19 compared to 22.2% in 3Q18 and 42.2% in 2Q19. ROAA of 0.7% in 3Q19, compared to 2.7% in 3Q18 and 4.7% in 2Q19. Excluding the debt reprofiling loss, ROAE and ROAA would have been [34.9%] and 4.2% respectively.

 

·                  Loans to deposits ratio was 85.8% flat with September 30, 2018 and up from 72.9%  as of June 30, 2019. AR$ loans to AR$ deposits ratio was 82.2% compared to 89.6% on September 30, 2018 and 78.5% as of June, 2019. QoQ reflects the 2.8% increase in AR$ loans, following the increase in new AR$ loans granted to customers who paid down their US$ loans, while AR$ deposits decreased 1.7%. Liquid AR$ Assets to AR$ deposits ratio as of September 30, 2019, was 50.2%. US$ loans to US$ deposits ratio was 95.9% compared to 78.1% as of September 30, 2018 and 60.9% as of June, 2019. In 3Q19, US$ deposits outflows were 45%,  above the 14% decline in US$ loans. As of September 30, 2019, the Liquid US$ Assets to US$ deposits ratio was 57.5%, flat with  June 30, 2019 taking into account  the 45% decline in deposits.

 

·                  Total Deposits increased 5.0% YoY and decreased 9.4% QoQ to AR$102.1 billion. AR$ deposits rose 15.6% YoY and decreased 1.8% QoQ, while foreign currency deposits (measured in US$) decreased 40.7% YoY and 45.2% QoQ, following industry trends in the quarter.

 

·                  Loans up 5.0% YoY and 6.0% QoQ at AR$87.5 billion. AR$ Loan portfolio rose 6.2% YoY and 2.8% QoQ. FX loans, measured in US$, declined 27.4% YoY and 13.7% QoQ.  Measured in local currency FX loans increased

 

3


 

2.2% YoY and 17.0% QoQ mainly due to the FX devaluation. YoY and QoQ inflation was 53.5% and 12.5% respectively.

 

·                  Total assets up 9.4% YoY and down 3.8% QoQ, to AR$159.8 billion. QoQ performance reflects both the reduction in US$ deposits at the Central Bank following US$ deposits outflows, and the reduction in holdings of Central Bank securities.

 

·                  The total NPL ratio increased by 320 bps YoY and 180 bps QoQ to 6.9% in 3Q19. QoQ performance was mainly due to certain delinquent commercial loans that resulted in a 420 bp increase in the Corporate Segment NPL ratio and higher percentage of NPLs from  this business segment over the total non-performing loan portfolio. This increase was partially offset by a AR$185.7 million decrease in NPL creation in the Consumer Finance segment.

 

·                  Common Equity Tier 1 Ratio (Consolidated Proforma) of 11.8% in 3Q19 compared to 11.9% as of June 30, 2019.

 

Commenting on third quarter 2019 results, Jorge Ramirez, Grupo Supervielle’s CEO, noted: “We have been operating in a challenging environment that was further exacerbated during the most recent quarter following the government’s announcement of the debt reprofiling which impacted profitability. Excluding this impact, we would have delivered net income before taxes of AR$1.9 billion, 23% higher than the prior quarter.

 

Reflecting a weakening macro environment, certain commercial loans turned delinquent in the quarter resulting in higher loan loss provisions. By contrast, consumer loans reported lower NPL loan creation in the quarter as we maintain our prudent approach to asset quality. In turn, the coverage ratio decreased to 86% this quarter given higher collaterals associated. Importantly, we have significantly strengthened collateralization levels of commercial loans when compared with 2Q19.  We continue monitoring closely our asset quality in this more challenging environment.

 

Liquidity management is a key priority area for us, given significant market uncertainty which drove some US$ dollar deposit outflows industry wide.  Notwithstanding, liquidity in pesos and US$ remains above 50%.

 

In sum, we run a strong franchise that is structurally performing well in this difficult scenario. This underlying strength supports our long-term optimism, although challenged by the limited visibility we have today; both in terms of the new government’s plan, as well as the current transition plan. We have a long and successful track record of operating in volatile and challenging environments.  Importantly, we  are well positioned particularly if the new Administration seeks to boost consumption,” concluded Mr. Ramirez.

(1)             Average Assets and average Shareholder´s Equity calculated on a daily basis

(2)             Total Portfolio: Loans and Leasing before Allowances. According to IFRS, this line item includes Securitized Loan Portfolio and loans transferred with recourse.

(3)             This ratio includes the liquidity held at the holding company level.

(4)             Regulatory capital divided by risk weighted assets taking into account operational and market risk. The regulatory capital ratio applies only to the Bank and CCF on a consolidated basis and does not include the liquidity held at the holding company level- The Proforma consolidated capital ratio, includes the liquidity retained at Grupo Supervielle level after the equity offering, which is available for growth. As of September 30, 2019, the liquidity amounted to AR$ 654 milion.

(5)             Tier 1 capital divided by risk weighted assets taking into account operational and market risk. The regulatory Tier 1 capital ratio applies only to the Bank and CCF on a consolidated basis and does not include the liquidity held at the holding company level. The Proforma Consolidated Tier 1 capital ratio includes AR$654 million retained at the holding company which are available for growth.

(6)             During 2Q19 the Central Bank clarified an interpretation regarding deductions on Tier1 Capital related to deferred tax assets, requesting not to offset deferred tax assets and liabilities even when offsetting is required by IFRS (IAS 12) and Basel framework, hence increasing the deductions on Tier 1 Capital. If the Central Bank criteria would have been adopted in 1Q19, Common Equity Tier 1 Ratio (Consolidated Proforma) would have been 11.8%.

(7)             Excluding a voluntary AR$462 million LLP in 1Q19, in excess of the 25% regulatory provisioning related to a delinquent commercial loan, Cost of risk would have been 7.5%. Cost of Risk in 4Q18, excluding the AR$ 231 million additional voluntary loan loss provisions made to increase coverage, was 5.9%.

Loss before income tax of AR$116.5 million in 3Q19 compared to a AR$1.0 billion profit in 3Q18 and a AR$1.6 billion profit in 2Q19. This loss before income tax was explained by: i) AR$2.0 billion loss reflecting mark to market accounting of short term AR$ and U$S local treasury notes held by Supervielle (amounting to approximately 3% of assets). Fixed income instrument prices declined between 35% and 45% following the debt reprofiling announced by the Argentine government, and ii) The increase in LLPs reflecting the partial provisioning on certain commercial loans coming from the Public Works Contracting and Retailer sectors that

 

6


 

became delinquent during the period. Excluding the impact of the debt reprofiling, 3Q19 pre-tax profit would have amounted to AR$ 1.9 billion, up 88% YoY and 23% QoQ.

 

Attributable Net income of AR$301.0 million in 3Q19, declined from AR$867.4 million in 3Q18 and AR$1.9 billion in 2Q19. Income tax recorded a positive result of AR$ 417.8 million mainly from the inflation adjustment in the income tax provision.

 

The income tax reform passed in December 2017 allowed the deduction of losses arising from exposures to changes in the purchasing power of the currency, only if inflation as measured by the Consumer Price Index (CPI) issued by the INDEC would exceed the following thresholds applicable for each fiscal year: 55% in 2018, 30% in 2019 and 15% in 2020. For 2021 and subsequent periods, inflation must exceed 100% in 3 years on a cumulative basis in order to deduct inflation losses.

 

In 2018 the 55% threshold was not met, but in 2019 inflation has already exceeded 30%. Therefore, since 2Q19 the income tax provision considers the losses arising from exposures to changes in the purchasing power of the currency, which significantly lowers the income tax expense for the current period. The impact of considering inflation adjustment for tax purposes in the income tax line item for 3Q19 and 2Q19 is AR$376 million and AR$664 million respectively.

 

Attributable Comprehensive Income in 3Q19 decreased 16.3%, or AR$142.4 million YoY, to AR$732.1 million, and 61.7% QoQ, or AR$1.2 billion.

 

Other Comprehensive Income in 3Q19 was AR$431.0 million compared to AR$7.1 million in 3Q18 and AR$7.7 million in 2Q19. 3Q19 mainly reflects the revaluation of properties in AR$ to adjust to market value.

 

ROAE of 6.2% in 3Q19 compares with 22.2% in 3Q18 and 42.2% in 2Q19. Excluding the debt reprofiling loss, ROAE would have been [34.9%].

 

ROAA of 0.7% in 3Q19 versus 2.7% in 3Q18 and 4.7% in 2Q19. Excluding the debt reprofiling loss, ROAA would have been 4.2%.

 

The table below shows managerial restatement of Income Tax, Net Income, Attributable Net Income, and ROAE, as if inflation adjustment in the income tax provision would have been reported since 1Q19.

Comprehensive Income & Profitability Breakdown

 

Consumer finance lending business showed positive results in the quarter reflecting an improvement in its financial margin, while asset quality continued to show improvement after the tightening of its underwriting policies and reducing exposure. As a consequence, Consumer Finance lending business ROAE was 25.3% while excluding this segment, 3Q19 ROAE for Supervielle reached 3.3%.

2Q19 included inflation adjustment for tax purposes in the income tax line item of AR$664 million that corresponded to the 1H19. If inflation adjustment in the income tax provision would have been accounted for as of March 31, 2019, 2Q19 ROAE would have been 34.6% and 2Q19 ROAE excluding Consumer finance lending buiseness, would have been 48.5%.

 

Net Financial Income (Net Interest Income -NII-, Net Income from Financial Instruments -NIFFI- & Exchange Rate Differences on Gold and Foreign Currency)

 

Net Financial Income of AR$5.3 billion, was up 20.3% YoY but down 19.5% QoQ mainly impacted by the debt reprofiling that resulted in a AR$2.0 billion loss reflecting mark to market accounting of short term AR$ and U$S treasury notes held by Supervielle (amounting to approximately 3% of assets). Fixed income instrument prices declined between 35% and 45% following the debt reprofiling announced by the Argentine government. Interest on loans benefitted from additional repricing in personal loans. Excluding the debt reprofiling impact, Net Financial Income would have increased 12% QoQ to AR$7.3 billion in 3Q19.

Net Interest Income was AR$1.5 billion, down 44.0% YoY but up 11.2% QoQ.

 

YoY performance reflects the 1,110 bps increase in the interest rate of the AR$ portfolio, while the average Badlar rate increased 1,760 bps, following sharp increases in the monetary policy rate. These actions impacted cost of funds in the banking business portfolio and in the consumer finance portfolio.

 

Moreover, additional deposits to fund marginal investments in high margin 7-day Central Bank securities, resulted in higher marginal interest expenses, reflected in Net Interest Income, while yields from the investment in those securities held for trading purposes are recorded in the Net Income from Financial Instruments -NIFFI- item. As of September 30, 2019, AR$29.9 billion of short-term securities issued by the Central Bank -7 day high-yield Leliqs- were held for trading purposes and accordingly valued at market price recording profits in NIFFI while the cost of the higher balance of interest-bearing liabilities raised to fund those investments, were recorded as interest expenses within Net Interest Income.

 

QoQ performance benefitted from the continued repricing in AR$ loans to individuals and commercial loans, and a lower proportion of non-remunerated minimum reserve requirements.

 

Below is a breakdown of the securities portfolio held as of September 30, 2019, between securities held for trading purposes, securities held to maturity, and securities available for sale. The accounting methodology is different for each security class.

 

a)             Amortized cost (“Held to maturity”): Assets measured at amortized cost are held within a business model with the objective to hold assets in order to collect contractual cash flows. Interest income is recognized in net interest margin. Assets in this category include the Company’s loan portfolio and certain government (mainly holdings of Bote) and corporate securities.

 

8


 

b)             Fair value through other comprehensive income (“Available for sale”): Assets measured at fair value through other comprehensive income are held in a business model whith the objetctive of both collecting contractual cash flows and selling fiancial assets. Interest income is recognized in net interest margin in the income statement, while changes in fair value are recognized in other comprehensive income.

 

c)              Fair value through profit or loss (“Held for trading”): Assets measured at fair value through profit or loss are held in a business model with the objective of trading financial assets. Changes in fair value are recognized in the “Net income from financial instruments” line item of the income statement. Assets in this category include most government securities (including Letes and Lecaps that were reprofiled) and securities issued by the Central Bank, other than those classified as amortised cost.

The 3Q19 loss from government and corporate securities reflects the AR$1.5 billion loss on the U$S short term treasury notes -Letes-, and the AR$ 0.56 billion loss on the AR$ short term treasury notes -Lecaps-.

 

Net Income from US$ denominated operations and securities was a AR$460.0 million net loss mainly explained by the impact of the US$ debt reprofiling partially offset by higher income on foreign currency trading with retail and institutional customers as well as trading desk gains in the quarter

Net Interest Margin (NIM) of 17.4% down 82 bps YoY and 468 bps QoQ. These decreases mainly reflect the abovementioned debt reprofiling impact. AR$ Loan portfolio NIM in the quarter was 24.2% compared to 23.8% in 2Q19 driven by continuing repricing in loans to individuals and short term commercial loans. U$S NIM as well as the NIM on Investment Portfolio, were impacted by the debt reprofiling. Excluding the debt reprofiling loss, NIM would have been 24.1%.

 

The Tables below provide further information about NIM breakdown corresponding to Loan Portfolio and Investment Portfolio, Average Assets and Average Liabilities, as well as interest rates both on assets and liabilities and market rates.

In 3Q19, while AR$ and U$S yield on investment portfolio were impacted by the mark to market accounting of short term AR$ and U$S treasury notes (amounting to approximately 3% of assets) following the debt reprofiling announced by the Argentine government, AR$ loans to individuals benefitted from continuing repricing.

 

AR$ cost of funds increased 220 bps QoQ reflecting the increase in market interest rates which was partially offset by the 5.1% increase in AR$ Low & Non-Interest Bearing Deposits average volumes, while AR$ Interest Bearing Liabilities average volumes remained flat.

 

US$ cost of funds increased 10 bps in the quarter but US$ Deposits decreased following industry trends. Average US$ deposits measured in AR$ were down 4.3% reflecting the currency devaluation in the quarter.

 

Yield on interest-earning assets includes interest income on loans as well as results from the Company’s AR$ and dollar denominated investment portfolio. Yield on interest-bearing liabilities includes interest expenses but it does not include the exchange rate differences and net gains or losses from currency derivatives or from the adjustment to FX fluctuation of the FX liabilities.  The yield on interest-bearing liabilities shown on this table for 3Q19 lacks the negative impact of the increase of the FX rate

as of September 30, 2019 compared to the FX rate as of June 30, 2019, thus presenting an inaccurate rate. The full impact is seen when also taking into account the Exchange rate differences on gold and foreign currency line in the income statement.

The 43.3% YoY rise in service fee income was driven mainly by the following increases:

 

·                  50.4%, or AR$ 251.5 million, in deposit account fees, reflecting the fee repricing in product bundles,

 

·                  35.4%, or AR$ 163.5 million, YoY in credit cards, reflecting higher business volume partially offset by the reduction in credit card and debit card merchant discount rates (“MDR”). The maximum MDR for 2018 was 1.85%, while in 2019 is 1.65%. The maximum debit card sales commissions for 2018 was 1.0% while for 2019 is 0.80%, and

 

·                  65.1%, or AR$137.9 million, in other fees, mainly from the sale of non-financial services and repricing of non-credit related insurance premiums.

 

The 13.5% QoQ increase in service fee income is explained by the following increases:

 

·                  23.3%, or AR$ 118.1 million, in credit cards commissions,

 

·                  11.4%, or AR$ 76.6 million, in deposit account fees, reflecting the repricing in fees charged on product bundles since august, and

 

·                  4.7%, or AR$ 15.7 million, in both non-financial services and non-credit related insurance products.

 

Service fee expenses increased 85.4% YoY and 27.8% QoQ to AR$541.8 million in 3Q19, primarily due to the increase in Commissions paid reflecting higher costs paid to the credit and debit cards’ processors.

 

Income from Insurance Activities

 

Income from insurance activities includes insurance premiums, net of insurance reserves and production costs. Supervielle Seguros issued its first policies in October 2014 with a few non-credit related insurance products, such as protected bag insurance and personal accident insurance. At year-end 2015, Supervielle Seguros began issuing credit-related policies substantially growing its business since then, partly through the growth of loans and credit card portfolio balances and partly through the migration of some of the portfolio

previously booked in a third-party insurance company. However, following a Central Bank Regulation issued in 2016, since September 1, 2016 both Banco Supervielle and Cordial Compañía Financiera are self-insuring against these risks and only Banco Supervielle contracts new credit related insurances for mortgages loans.

 

Income from insurance activities for 3Q19 amounted to AR$258.1 million, increasing 41.0% YoY and 18.9% QoQ. Gross written premiums were up 23.5% QoQ, with non-credit related policies increasing AR$78.9 million, or 24.8%. Claims paid reflects technical adjustments on the IBNR (Incurred but not Recorded Expenses) guidelines.

 

Loan Loss Provisions

 

Loan loss provisions (LLP) totaled AR$2.0 billion in 3Q19, increasing 78.8% YoY and 65.8% QoQ. The QoQ increase in LLPs mainly reflects the partial provisioning on certain commercial loans coming from the Public Works Contracting and Retailer sectors that became delinquent during the period. As these NPLs were not fully provisioned given the collaterals associated with them (provisioning exceeded the Central Bank requirement),  the coverage ratio decreased to 86.1% from 107.7% in 2Q19. As of September 30, 2019, collateralized non-performing commercial loans were 55% of total, compared with 20% as of June 30, 2019. The Company expects to foreclose and divest those collaterals in the upcoming quarters.

 

The 78.8% YoY increase in loan loss provisions mainly reflects asset quality deterioration in the corporate segment and these certaincommercial loans following weak activity levels and high interest rates, and to a lesser extent an increase in the retail segment LLPs. This was partially offset by a AR$236.8 million decrease in Consumer Finance loan loss provisions.

 

The 65.8% QoQ increase in loan loss provisions reflects the abovementioned deterioration in the corporate segment while the retail and consumer finance segments LLPs decreased AR$96.2 million and AR$120.1 million respectively.

 

Cost of Risk increased 360 bps to 9.6% in 3Q19 compared to 5.9% in 3Q18 and 6.0% in 2Q19, negatively impacted by the abovementioned delinquent commercial loans.

 

Consumer Finance segment loan loss provisions amounted to AR$241.5 million in 3Q19, down 49.5% from 3Q18 and 33.2% from 2Q19., following the declines in NPL creation for the third consecutive quarter. Cost of Risk was 14.5% in 3Q19 compared to 19.4% in previous quarter, improving 490 bps QoQ.

 

Retail segment loan loss provisions amounted to AR$564.1 million in 3Q19, up 49.5% from 3Q18 and down 14.6% from 2Q19. Cost of Risk was 6.6% in 3Q19 compared to 5.4% in 3Q18 and 7.8% in the previous quarter.

 

Corporate segment loan loss provisions amounted to AR$1.2 billion in 3Q19, up from AR$230.9 million in 3Q18 and from AR$191.8 million in 2Q19. Cost of Risk was 10.6% in 3Q19 compared to 2.5% in 3Q18 and 1.9% in the previous quarter. 3Q19 was impacted by certain delinquent loans.

 

The total NPL ratio increased by 320 bps YoY and 180 bps QoQ to 6.9% in 3Q19. QoQ performance was mainly impacted by certain delinquent commercial loans that resulted in a 419 bp increase in Corporate Segment NPL ratio and higher percentage of NPLs from  this business segment over the total non-performing loan portfolio. This increase was partially offset by a AR$185.7 million decrease in NPL creation in the Consumer Finance segment.

 

The Corporate banking segment NPL portfolio was 7.2% in 3Q19 up from 3.0% in 2Q19. This was mainly impacted by certain delinquent loans.

 

The Retail banking segment registered a 90-day delinquency ratio of 2.6% in 3Q19, well below its NPL ratio of 4.0% as a high percentage of customers are payroll or pension customers, who maintain a better performance with the Bank than with the rest of the system. The difference between the 90-day delinquency and NPL ratios is due to Central Bank regulations, which require that customers who are performing with a bank, must be considered non-performing, if they are delinquent with other banks or financial institutions.

The Efficiency ratio was 70.4% in 3Q19 increasing 1,110 bps YoY, and 801 bps QoQ.  A 2.3% QoQ decline in expenses was offset by a lower financial margin due to the government short term notes reprofiling impact. Excluding the impact of the debt reprofiling, 3Q19 efficiency ratio would have been 53%, down from a comparable 58.7% in 2Q19. 2Q19 results included AR$ 273 million in non-recurring severance charges. Since January 2019, the efficiency ratio includes the impact from IFRS16 adoption.

 

The YoY 44.3% increase in personnel expenses was mainly explained by salary increases both at the bank level and other subsidiaries. These increases were partially offset by the reorganization in the consumer finance unit implemented in 3Q18 and 4Q18 and the YoY decrease in the employee base in this segment. The employee base at the close of 3Q19 was 5,225, decreasing 1.1% YoY, or by 56 employees.

 

The past eighteen months wage increases resulting from the bargaining agreement between Argentine banks and the labor union were as follows:

Sequentially, personnel expenses decreased 6.4% in 3Q19. During the period, personnel expenses included the abovementioned salary increases in the quarter agreed with the unions together with the full impact in 3Q19 of the salary increases agreed upon in previous two quarters. 2Q19 expenses included non recurring severance charges of AR$273 million. The employee base increased 29 employees, or 0.6% QoQ.

 

Administrative expenses increased 33.4% YoY to AR$1.6 billion and 3.5% QoQ.

 

The YoY increase was mainly driven by the following increases:

 

·                  35.7%, or AR$246.3 million, in other expenses mainly due to armored transportation services costs,

 

19


 

·                  33.7% or AR$71.1 million, in taxes, and

 

·                  23.1%, or AR$34.9 million, in other professional fees.

 

The QoQ increase was mainly driven by 16.3%, or AR$131.4 million, in other expenses mainly due to armored transportation services costs. This was partially offset by 20.3%, or AR$47.3 million decrease in other professional fees, and 4.8% or AR$14.3 million decrease, in taxes.

 

D&A amounted to AR$231.2 million in 3Q19 increasing 163.2% YoY and 10.7% QoQ. YoY increase is explained both by the adoption of IFRS 16 effective January 2019 and higher amortizations as a result of properties revaluation and intangible assets from the two company acquisitions completed in 2018. QoQ increase is mainly explained by higher amortizations as a result of properties revaluation.

 

Other Operating Income (expenses), net

 

During 3Q19, Other Operating Expenses, net was AR$ 497.3 million increasing 58.9% YoY but decreasing 22.0% QoQ.

Other Expenses mainly reflect turnover tax on all interest income, financial income and fees.

 

Other Comprehensive Income, net of tax

 

During 3Q19, Other Comprehensive Income, net of tax was AR$431.0 million mainly reflecting the revaluation of properties and also the difference between the amortized cost and the market value of financial instruments held for investments.

 

Income Tax

 

As per the tax reform passed by Congress in December 2017, the corporate tax rate for fiscal years 2018 and 2019 declined to 30% from 35% and will decline to 25% starting in fiscal year 2020. In addition, through the adoption of International Financial Reporting Standards effective January 1, 2018, the Company began to recognize deferred tax assets and liabilities.

 

Additionally, as income tax is paid by each subsidiary on an individual basis, tax losses in one legal entity cannot be offset by tax gains in another legal entity. Income from liquidity retained at the holding company, allowed Supervielle to more than offset financial expenses paid through this vehicle and use tax credits existing from previous years, which in turn explained until 2018 a lower effective tax rate.

 

The above mentioned tax reform allowed the deduction of losses arising from exposures to changes in the purchasing power of the currency, only if inflation as measured by the Consumer Price Index (CPI) issued by the INDEC would exceed the following thresholds applicable for each fiscal year: 55% in 2018, 30% in 2019 and 15% in 2020. For 2021 and subsequent periods, inflation must exceed 100% in 3 years on a cumulative basis in order to deduct inflation losses. In 2018 the 55% threshold was not met, but in 2019 inflation has already exceeded 30%. Therefore, the income tax provision for 2019 considers the losses arising from exposures to changes in the purchasing power of the currency, which lower significantly the income tax expense for the current year.

 

For income tax purposes, 1/3 of the inflation losses arising in the 2019 fiscal year will be deductible in 2019, while the remaining 2/3 will be deductible in 2020 and 2021. Accordingly, 1/3 of the inflation losses reduce the current income tax provision, while the other 2/3 create a deferred tax asset.

 

The impact of considering inflation adjustment for tax purposes in the income tax line item for 3Q19 was AR$ 376 million, while in 2Q19 it amounted to AR$664 million.

The charts below show the evolution of the loan book over the past five quarters broken down by segment.

 

 

The Corporate loan portfolio increased 9.5% sequentially. QoQ reflects the increase in AR$ loans, following new loans granted to customers who had paid down their US$ denominated loans, while US$ loans measured in US$ decreased in the quarter but increased when measured in AR$ due to the devaluation.

 

The Retail banking loan portfolio increased 4.3% in the quarter mainly due to higher credit cards volumes explained by Ahora 12 and Ahora 18 government plans for purchases with credit cards in non interest bearing installments. The 3.5% contraction in the Consumer Finance loan portfolio continues to reflect the Company’s decision to tighten credit scoring standards in the segment as well as weak consumer credit demand and high interest rates.

 

Risk management

 

Atomization of the loan portfolio.  As a result of its risk management policies, the Company continues to show an atomized portfolio, where the top 10, 20 and 100 borrowers represent 13%, 19% and 36%, respectively of the Loan portfolio.

Regarding Retail Portfolio, loans to payroll and pension clients as of September 30, 2019, represented 67.2% of the total segment loan portfolio.

 

Asset Quality

 

In 3Q19 certain commercial loans coming from the Public Works Contracting and Retailer sectors became delinquent. As these NPLs were not fully provisioned given the collaterals associated with them (provisioning exceeded the Central Bank requirement),  the coverage ratio decreased to 86.1% from 107.7% in 2Q19. As of September 30, 2019, collateralized non-performing commercial loans were 55% of total, compared with 20% as of June 30, 2019. The Company expects to foreclose and divest those collaterals in the upcoming quarters.

 

Cost of Risk increased 360 bps to 9.6% in 3Q19 compared to 5.9% in 3Q18 and 6.0% in 2Q19, being negatively impacted by certain delinquent commercial loans.

 

Reflecting the Company’s decision to tighten credit scoring standards in the Consumer Finance Segment in 1Q18, the share of Consumer Finance loans continued to decline, accounting for 7% of the total loan portfolio, down from 12% in 1Q18.

 

Cost of risk, net, which is equivalent to loan loss provisions net of recovered charged-off loans and reversed allowances, was 9.1% in 3Q19, compared to 5.7% in 3Q18 and 5.6% in 2Q19.

 

The total NPL ratio increased by 320 bps YoY and 180 bps QoQ to 6.9% in 3Q19. QoQ performance was mainly due to certaindelinquent commercial loans that resulted in a 420 bp increase in Corporate Segment NPL ratio and higher percentage of NPLs from  this business segment over the total non-performing loan portfolio. This increase was partially offset by an AR$185.7 million decrease in NPL creation in the Consumer Finance segment.

 

The Corporate banking segment NPL portfolio was 7.2% in 3Q19 up from 3.0% in 2Q19. This was mainly impacted by certain delinquent loans.

 

The Retail banking segment registered a 90-day delinquency ratio of 2.6% in 3Q19, well below its NPL ratio of 4.0% as a high percentage of customers are payroll or pension customers, who maintain a better performance with the Bank than with the rest of the system. The difference between the 90-day delinquency and NPL ratios is due to Central Bank regulations, which require that customers who are performing with a bank, must be

considered non-performing, if they are delinquent with other banks or financial institutions.

 

During the first quarter of 2018, the Company tightened credit scoring standards and slowed origination in the consumer finance segment. Those measures, together with changes implemented in the collection process and despite the increasingly challenging environment, started to show some signs of improvement or stabilization, with decreases in NPL creation levels from peak 2Q18 levels. NPL creation in 3Q19 continued to improve decreasing for the third consecutive quarter.

Consumer Finance Loans disbursed since March 2018, showed lower delinquency than loans disbursed in previous months, reflecting the tightening of credit scoring standards in place since 1Q18. Since January 2019 there was an improvement in origination delinquency levels when compared with the September and December 2018 time period which had been impacted by high levels of inflation. Delinquency levels remained well below the levels registered as of February 2018 before changes in credit standards and collection processes began to be implemented.

According to Central Bank regulations, non-financial liabilities resulting from the adoption of IFRS 16 since January 2019, is not considered within the Global Net Position, and this mainly explains the short position to the Fx in some months of the year 2019. Global Net Position is limited to a 4% maximum long position.

 

Liquidity & Capitalization

 

As of September 30, 2019, the total loans to deposits ratio was 85.8% unchanged from September 30, 2018 and increasing from 72.9% as of June 30, 2019. QoQ reflects the decrease in deposits in the quarter while loans increased due to both, the AR$ loan growth and the impact of the depreciation of the FX in US$ loans expressed in AR$.

 

As of September 30, 2019, the AR$ total loans to AR$ deposits ratio was 82.2% compared to 89.6% on September 30, 2018 and 78.5% as of June, 2019. QoQ reflects the 2.8% increase in AR$ loans,  while AR$ deposits decreased 1.7%. Liquid AR$ Assets to AR$ deposits ratio as of September 30, 2019, was 50.2%.

 

As of September 30, 2019, the US$ total loans to US$ deposits ratio was 95.9% compared to 78.1% as of September 30, 2018 and 60.9% as of June, 2019. In 3Q19, US$ deposits outflows were 45%,  above the 14% decline in US$ loans. As of September 30, 2019, the Liquid US$ Assets to US$ deposits ratio was 57.5%, flat compared to  June 30, 2019 even after the 45% outflows in US$ deposits.

 

As of September 30, 2019, proforma liquidity coverage ratio (LCR) was 141.7% compared to 164.5% as of June 30, 2019. This ratio continued to reflect high liquidity levels following the decrease in the loan portfolio and higher holdings of 7-day Leliqs.

 

Net Stable funding ratio (“NSFR”) as of September 30, 2019 was 153.7%.

Capital injections made by the Company in its subsidiaries during 2019 were as follows:

 

·                  In February 2019, CCF received total net capital injections of AR$1 Billion.

·                  In June 2019, CCF received total net capital injections of AR$500 Million.

 

The Common Equity Tier 1 Ratio (Consolidated Proforma) as of September 30, 2019, measured under the new Central Bank criteria was 11.8%, compared to the 11.9% reported as of June 30, 2019 and 12.5% reported as of September 30, 2018.

 

During 2Q19 the Central Bank clarified an interpretation regarding deductions on Tier1 Capital related to deferred tax assets. Until 1Q19 the Company deducted deferred tax assets net of deferred tax liabilities, as they are shown in the balance sheet according to IFRS, and following the Basel framework. Commencing 2Q19, the Company deducts deferred tax assets without offsetting deferred tax liabilities. This means the deduction to Tier 1 capital in accordance to the Central Bank interpretation is higher than the deferred tax asset shown in the balance sheet. Had this criteria been adopted in 1Q19, Common Equity Tier 1 Ratio (Consolidated Proforma) as of March 31, 2019 would have been 11.8%.

 

Total Capital Ratio (consolidated pro-forma) and Tier 1 Capital ratio (consolidated pro-forma) includes AR$654 million retained at the holding company level available for growth. Supervielle’s Tier1 ratio coincides with CET1 ratio.

 

As of September 30, 2019, Banco Supervielle’s consolidated financial position showed a solvency level with an integrated capital of AR$14.8 billion, exceeding total capital requirements by AR$4.8 billion.

(1)         Tier1 Capital / Risk weighted assets does not include AR$654 million tier1 capital retained at the holding company level, that is available for growth. 2Q19 does not include AR$442 million tier1 capital retained at the holding company level, that is available for growth. 1Q19 Tier1 Capital / Risk weighted assets does not include $913 million tier1 capital that were retained as of March 2019.  4Q18 Tier1 Capital / Risk weighted assets does not include $929 million tier1 capital that were retained as of December 2018.at the holding company level, available for growth.and AR$ 1 billion of capital contribution made to the Bank in November but approved by the BCRA on January 24, 2019.

 

(2)         3Q19 and 2Q19 were calculated according to the new Central Bank methodology which modified the criteria of calculation deductions on Capital and excludes deferral tax on liabilities.

 

The QoQ performance reflects capital consumption as a result of an 8% increase in operational risk with a 15% increase in the amount of deductions to the Tier 1 capital, while market risk decreased 40%. During 2Q19 the Central Bank clarified an interpretation regarding deductions on Tier1 Capital related to deferred tax assets, asking not to offset deferred tax assets and liabilities even when offsetting is required by IFRS (IAS 12) and Basel framework, hence increasing the deductions on Tier 1 Capital.

 

The YoY performance reflects capital consumption as a result of a 56% increase in operational risk due to higher financial margin and 73%, together with an increase in the amount of deductions to the tier 1 capital.

 

Minimum Cash Reserve Requirements.

 

Since June 20, 2018, the Central Bank has been increasing minimum cash reserve requirements on AR$ Deposits. According to the last update (July 22, 2019), Financial institutions belonging to Group “A” (group of systemic importance) have the following minimum reserve requirement: sight deposits reserve requirements amount to 45%, of which 30% should be set up in cash, 5% in BOTES 2020 and 10% in LELIQs (until November

 

33


 

1, 2019). For time deposits of up to 29 days of residual term, minimum reserve requirements amount to 32%, where 11% should be set up in cash, 5% in Botes 2020 and 16% in Leliq. These requirements are reduced as the term of deposits increases. For deposits with a residual tenor between 30 and 59 days, the requirements are 22%, 4% set up in cash, 5% in BOTES 2020 and 13% in LELIQs, reducing to 0%, 2% and 2%, respectively, for the residual term from 60 to 89 days. Deposits of more than 90 days of residual term have no minimum reserve requirement.

 

Moreover, through a regulation issued on June 19, 2019, it was also determined that from July 1, 2019, the minimum cash reserve requirements in pesos shall be calculated by the average of daily balances of the liabilities registered at the close of each day during the period prior to its integration and established the unified computation of the minimum cash requirement in pesos for the periods July / August and December of a year / January of the following year.

 

Related to US$ Deposits, minimum cash reserve requirements is 25% for Demand Deposits and 23% for time deposits of up to 29 days of residual term. This requirement is reduced as the term of deposits increases. For deposits with a residual term of between 30 and 59 days, the requirement is 17%, reduced to 11% for deposits with a residual term ranging from 60 to 89 days, to 5% for deposits with a residual term between 90 to 179 days, and to 2% for residual terms between 180 to 365 days. Deposits with a residual term exceeding 365 days will have no minimum cash requirement.

 

The table below shows the composition of the reserve requirements as of each reported date. The basis on which minimum cash reserve requirement is computed is the monthly average of the daily balances of the liabilities at the end of each day during each calendar month, with the exeption of what was recently regulated through Communication “A” 6719, and is applicable for the months of July and August, and December and January.

During 3Q19, Profit before Income tax, was AR$696 million increasing AR$299 million QoQ from AR$396 million in 2Q19. YoY performance recorded an increase of AR$539 million or 344.3%.

 

Attributable Net Income at the Retail Banking Segment increased to AR$938.2 million in 3Q19 from AR$180.4 million in 3Q18. This resulted mainly from a higher net operating revenue before loan loss provisions, and also due to the inflation adjustment in income tax provision. These were partially offset by the 49.5% increase in loan loss provisions to AR$564.1 million and the 48.3% increase in personnel and administrative expenses.

 

QoQ, Attributable Net Income increased 86.5% from AR$503.0 millon. This resulted mainly from: i) a higher net operating revenue before loan loss provisions, ii) a 14.6% decrease in LLP to AR$564.1 million iii)  the inflation adjustment in income tax provision  and iv) 3.0% decrease in expenses to AR$ 2.9 billion.

 

In 3Q19, net operating revenue before loan loss provisions was AR$4.3 billion, up 69.8% from 3Q18 and 3.0% QoQ.

 

The YoY increase is mainly explained by: i) 68.5% growth in net financial income reflecting increases in inflation adjusted mortgage loans, credit cards volumes,  the continuing repricing of personal loans portfolio, together with higher income on foreign currency trading with retail customers, and ii) a 31.2%, or AR$187.5 million, increase in net service fee income.

 

The 3.0% QoQ increase in net operating revenue before loan loss provisions resulted from a 3.5% increase in  service fee income due to the repricing of bundled products in the quarter, and a 3.0% decrease in expenses. Net financial income remained flat.

 

Loan loss provisions amounted to AR$564.1 million in 3Q19, up 49.5% from 3Q18 and down 14.6% from 2Q19. The YoY rise is primarily due to an increase in the non-performing portfolio as a result of weak economic activity, high inflation rates and the lost of purchasing power. The Retail banking segment registered a 90-day delinquency ratio of 2.6% in 3Q19, well below its NPL ratio of 4.0% as a high percentage of customers are payroll or pension customers, who maintain a better performance with the Bank than with the rest of the system.

 

Retail banking loans (including receivables from financial leases) reached AR$33.4 billion at September 30, 2019 increasing 12.6% YoY and 4.3% QoQ. Retail banking loan portfolio continued to reflect lower credit demand in the quarter due to weak consumer sentiment and high interest rates.

 

Retail banking deposits rose 18.3% on annual basis and decreased 10.1% sequentially.

As of September 30, 2019, collateralized non-performing commercial loans were 55% of total, compared with 20% as of June 30, 2019. The Company expects to foreclose and divest those collaterals in the upcoming quarters.

Loan loss provisions was AR$1190.8 million in 3Q19 compared to AR$167.9 million in 3Q18 and AR$191.8 million in 2Q19. The QoQ increase is explained by the abovementioned delinquent commercial loans registered in 3Q19.

Loan loss provisions amounted to AR$241.5 million in 3Q19, down 49.5% from 3Q18 and 33.2% from 2Q19. Cost of Risk was 14.5% in 3Q19 compared to 19.4% in previous quarter, improving 490 bps QoQ, while coverage ratio remained stable.

 

During the first quarter of 2018, the Company tightened credit scoring standards and slowed origination in the consumer finance segment. Those measures, together with changes implemented in the collection process and despite the increasingly challenging environment, started to show some signs of improvement or stabilization, with decreases in NPL creation levels from peak 2Q18 levels. NPL creation in 3Q19 continued to improve decreasing for the third consecutive quarter.

 

The NPL ratio decreased by 90 bps QoQ, while the total non performing loan portfolio decreased 14% QoQ, or AR$ 232 million. The loan portfolio declined 2.3% QoQ.

 

Loans (net of Provisions for loan losses) totaled AR$6.2 billion as of September 30, 2019 decreasing 3.5% QoQ and 22.0% YoY. The contraction in the Consumer Finance loan portfolio continues to reflect the Company’s decision to tighten credit scoring standards in the segment as well as lower consumer credit demand.

During 3Q19, Loss before Income tax, was AR$3.0 compared with AR$2.8 million profit in 3Q18 and AR$33.7 million in 2Q19. This loss reflects both lower activity level in the asset management industry together with the impact of mark to market accounting of short term AR$ treasury notes held by the Asset management company. Fixed income instrument prices declined between 35% and 45% following the debt reprofiling announced by the Argentine government.

 

Net loss of the Asset Management Segment & Other Segments of AR$21.6 million compared to a Net Income of AR$11.2 million in 3Q18 and AR$64.8 million in 2Q19. The abovementioned impact, was partially offset by increases of 37.6% YoY and 18.0% QoQ in net service fee income, together with a 1.8% YoY and 28.4% QoQ decrease in personnel and administrative expenses.

 

Assets under management amounted to AR$11.2 billion as of September 30, 2019, down from AR$16.2 billion as of June 2019 and flat from September 2018.

This new regulation will affect Banco Supervielle and Grupo Supervielle. The company calculations under this new regulation, posts capital and liquidity ratios similar to the ones informed as Proforma consolidated ratios under this report.

 

Minimum Cash Reserve Requirements

 

Through Communication A 6719 issued on June 19, 2019 the Central Bank announced that from June 1, 2019, obligations with retail stores for sales made through the use of credit cards and / or purchase cards are excluded from the minimum cash reserve requirements.

 

Moreover, through this communication it was also determined that from July 1, 2019, the minimum cash reserve requirements in pesos shall be calculated by the average of daily balances of the liabilities registered at the close of each day during the period prior to its integration and established the unified computation of the minimum cash requirement in pesos for the periods July / August and December of a year / January of the following year.

 

The Central Bank also announced that financial entities may choose to integrate, in the months of July and December of each year, the non-integrated pesos requirements of the previous month, maintaining the computation method in force for the requirement of each period (monthly average or bimonthly - depending on the case - balances of the liabilities included in the previous period).

 

Later on, on July 1, 2019, through Communication A 6728, the Central Bank announced a decrease in minimum cash reserve requirements by 3 percentage points in pesos for all financial institutions time deposits.

 

On July 22, 2019, through Communication A 6738, the Central Bank announced that an additional 3 percentage points of the total reserve requirements could be set up with leliqs. Previously this 3% was set up with cash.

 

On October 28, 2019, through Communication A 6817, the Central Bank announced that starting November 1, 2019, reserve requirements on sight deposits will no longer be  allowed to be set up with LELIQs.

 

Financial institutions belonging to Group “A” (group of systemic importance) now have the following minimum reserve requirement: sight deposits reserve requirements amount to 45%, of which 40% should be set up in cash and 5% in BOTES 2020. For time deposits of up to 29 days of residual term, minimum reserve requirements amount to 32%, where 11% should be set up in cash, 5% in Botes 2020 and 16% in Leliq. These requirements are reduced as the term of deposits increases. For deposits with a residual tenor between 30 and 59 days, the requirements are 22%, 4% set up in cash, 5% in BOTES 2020 and 13% in LELIQs, reducing to 0%, 2% and 2%, respectively, for the residual term from 60 to 89 days. Deposits of more than 90 days of residual term have no minimum reserve requirement.

Central Bank Passive Repo Rate with Mutual Funds

 

Through Communication P 50953 issued on September 16, 2019, the Central Bank’s Monetary Policy Committee (COPOM) modified the interest rate for Central Bank Passive Repo with Mutual Funds. The rate was set at the equivalent of 0.7 of the passive repo rate at 1 day to financial institutions. This measure was taken in order to improve the transmission of the monetary policy rate.

 

Financial Reporting in Hyperinflationary Economies

 

IAS 29 “Financial Reporting in hyperinflationary economies”, requires that financial statements of an entity hose functional currency is the currency of a hyperinflationary economy, whether they are based on a historical cost approach or a current cost approach, shall be stated in terms of the measuring unit current at the end of the reporting period. In doing so, non-monetary items are restated by applying to its historical cost and accumulated depreciation the change in a general price index from the date of acquisition or last revaluation, until the end of he reporting period. Such restatement is also applied to figures of previous periods included in the financial statements.

 

In order to determine if an economy is hyperinflationary in accordance with IAS 29, the Standard sets a number of factors to be considered, including a cumulative inflation rate over three years that approaches or exceeds 100%.

 

Accumulated inflation in the last three years has exceeded 100%. For this reason, in accordance with IAS 29, the Argentine economy must be considered as hyper-inflationary as of July 1, 2018.

 

In a hyper-inflationary environment, any entity that maintains an excess of monetary assets over monetary liabilities, will lose purchasing power, and any entity that maintains an excess of monetary liabilities over monetary assets, will gain purchasing power, provided that such items are not subject to an adjustment mechanism.

 

Briefly, the restatement mechanism of IAS 29 establishes that monetary assets and liabilities will not be restated since they are already expressed in the current measurement unit at the end of the reporting period. Assets and liabilities subject to adjustments based on specific agreements will be adjusted in accordance with such agreements. The non-monetary items measured at their current values at the end of the reporting period, such as the net realization value or others, do not need to be restated. The remaining non-monetary assets and liabilities will be restated by a general price index. The loss or gain from the net monetary position will be included in the net result of the reporting period, disclosing this information in a separate line item.

 

By issuing the Communication “A” 6651 in February 2019, the Central Bank adopted IAS 29 and the inflation adjustments provisions stated therein for fiscal years starting January 1, 2020. Therefore, IAS 29 was not applied to financial statements for the fiscal years ended on December 31, 2018 and 2017.

 

The application of IAS 29 “ “Financial Reporting in Hyperinflationary Economies” has overall effects on these consolidated condensed interim financial statements. Accordingly, the reported amounts would be significantly affected. The Group’s shareholders’ equity as of September 30, 2019 and its comprehensive 9 months results of operations would amount to approximately AR$ 22,252 million and -AR$$1,442 million, respectively.
