Reclassification of Comparison Items | Some numbers have been re-classified for comparative reasons. |
Additional Information | EPS for the current and the previous year are calculated by dividing the net income attributable to common equity holders of the bank (adjusted for Tier 1 Sukuk costs) for the periods by the weighted average number of shares outstanding 4,440,891k (2022: 4,437,948k). The overall balance sheet expanded by 3% compared to 31 December 2022. The main driver was 4% growth in financing, 3% growth in retail principally from 4% mortgages growth, and 4% wholesale financing growth. Customers’ deposits rose 8% in the first quarter. SNB has also maintained healthy capitalization levels and a strong liquidity position. The percentage decrease in the bank’s investment in Credit Suisse SNB’s investment in Credit Suisse was SAR 5.5 bn (through a share placement on 24 November 2022 and a rights issue on 8 December 2022). At 31 December 2022, SNB’s investment in Credit Suisse had declined by approximately 20%. During the three months period ended 31 March 2023, SNB’s investment in Credit Suisse had further declined by approximately 70%. Impact of SNB’s investment in Credit Suisse on its Q1 2023 financial results The financial impact on SNB’s balance sheet was a decline in the Credit Suisse investment carrying value by approximately 70% during the first quarter of 2023 (the carrying value of the Credit Suisse investment as at 31 March 2023 was SAR 1.3 bn). The financial impact on SNB’s equity was a decline in equity by SAR 3.1 bn during the first quarter of 2023. There was no income statement impact as SNB had made an irrevocable election, as permitted by the accounting standards, to present subsequent changes in the fair value of the Credit Suisse investment through other comprehensive income. Impact on SNB’s investment in Credit Suisse from the merger with UBS SNB’s shareholding in Credit Suisse of 9.88% will convert into a shareholding in UBS of approximately 0.5% upon completion of the merger. |
