Post the recaps, the sector’s private ownership increased to 62%-98% across banks (up across all banks). However, use of new
public funds at PIR and NBG implies increased state involvement (as per the recap law) and triggers further balance sheet
downsizing (in particular foreign units). ALB remains the only systemic Greek bank without any state aid. EURB screens as one with
the lowest level of share ownership; however, it continues to hold €950 mn of state preference shares which need to be repaid.

Recaps completed: €9.0 bn of €14.4 bn shortfall covered privately
Goldman Sachs Global Investment Research
The four systemic Greek banks have covered €9.0 bn (62%) of a total shortfall of €14.4 bn privately. The contribution of the private
sector is split between €5.3 bn covered by share capital increases (SCI), €3.0 bn coming from liability management exercises (LME)
and €0.7 bn from other capital action measures approved by the regulator. The aggregate amount raised through SCIs is between
the amounts of capital raised in the market in the two previous recap rounds (2013: c.€3 bn, 2014: c.€8 bn). In total the Greek banks
have seen a total sector recap of c.€66 bn over the last 3 years.
Private-sector participation reduced the need for public funds to c.€5.4, split broadly equally between NBG (€2.7 bn) and PIR (€2.7
bn). The state support came through a mix of common shares (25%, c.€1.4 bn) and contingent capital notes (75%, c.€4.1 bn). This
amount of state aid injected into the Greek banking sector came below the lower end of the recap line of credit of €10-25 bn agreed
under the third assistance program for Greece.

New shares issued at 0.3x-0.4x TBV, recap triggered 83%-99% dilution to former shareholders
The aggregate TBV of Greek banks stood at €20.5 bn at the end of 3Q15. Based on the capital measures (both dilutive and non-
dilutive), banks’ TBV will increase by c.€11 bn, on our estimates. The announced issue prices implied a valuation in a range of 0.3x-
0.4x TBV on a pro-forma basis (post money). The recap process consequently results in 83%-99% dilution to former shareholders.

(1) Capital plans assume treatment of Greek state preference shares depending on when a bank is expected to receive incremental state aid during
the current recap round. Consequently, as per the recap plans, state prefs are carried over at their nominal value (€950mn) at EURB and subject to
haircut and conversion into common shares at NBG. (2) Assumes dilution from LMEs is reduced by the size of potential capital gains.

Ownership structure: All banks avoid resolutions, two also avoid further state aid
Goldman Sachs Global Investment Research
The sector’s private ownership increased to >80% on average across all banks, comparing to 15% and 43% post capital hikes in 2013
and 2014, accordingly. State ownership is now the lowest for ALB and EURB, the two banks which succeeded in covering the entire
capital shortfall from private sources, falling from 68% and 35% down to 11% and 2%, respectively. ALB remains the only systemic
Greek bank without any state aid, given EURB will continue to hold 950 mn of state preference shares.
PIR and NBG will see their state ownership falling from 67% and 57% down to 26% and 38%, respectively. However, in contrast to
last two recap rounds, use of public funds implies increased state involvement and triggers further balance sheet downsizing at both
institutions. Pursuant to the recapitalization law (see Appendix 2 for more details) HFSF will maintain full voting rights and right to
nominate a board member with additional oversight powers at both PIR and NBG.

All in all, we expect the Greek banks to face meaningful headwinds in the near term, with asset quality screening as a key overhang.
In the medium-term, we see the sector achieving returns similar to that of the European average, although lagging the returns of
some of the regional EM markets (CEE, Turkey, Russia for example).

We expect the Greek banks to be only marginally profit making in 2017. However, on a medium-term view, the sector should be in a
position to offer more attractive returns, in our view. We forecast the banks to generate ROTE of c.6%-8% on a reported, and c.9%-
10% on underlying basis in 2019. This is on par with the European banks’ average of 10% on our 2017 estimates.

Our current forecasts that incorporate a delayed profit recovery for the Greek banking sector correspond to high P/E multiples for
Goldman Sachs Global Investment Research
the three banks when benchmarked against European and EM peers on a 2017E basis. By contrast, earnings expectations consistent
with a recovered 9%-10% ROTEs would put Greek banks on a “normalized” multiple of 4x-5x earnings, one of the lowest in Europe.

Valuation methodology: Our 12-month price targets imply a fair P/TBV multiple of 0.6x
Our 12-month forward price targets for the Greek banks are derived using a ROTE/COE-based valuation methodology. We use a
2019E valuation as our reference point in order to capture recovery of the banks’ earnings and adjust underlying profitability further
to exclude costs of remaining state-aid. Our individual price targets are adjusted to reflect each bank’s capital position (we use a
fully loaded CET1 cut-off of 12% in 2019E) and are discounted back to reflect upside/downside on a 12-month forward basis (in line
with our coverage). Our 12-month price targets for Greek banks imply a fair P/TBV multiple of 0.6x.

Valuation
ALB’s shares are valued at 0.3x TBV on our 2016 estimates. This is broadly on par with the other Greek banks
under our coverage but at a substantial discount to the European sector (1.1x) as well as other Southern
Price performance chart European peers (0.8x). On a capital adjusted basis, we see ALB in a position to deliver c.10% ROTE in 2019E, on
30 560
par with the European sector average for 2017E.
25 530
20 500
We value the shares using a ROTE/COE methodology to derive a 12-month price target of €3.30. Our price target
corresponds to a multiple of 0.6x TBV (2016E) and implies 64% upside to the SCI issue price (€2.00). We upgrade
15 470
our rating to Buy. We adjust our estimates and valuation to reflect the recent recaps, front loading of the AQR
10 440
implied provision and marginally better operating trends in outer years.

We value the shares using a ROTE/COE methodology to derive a 12-month price target of €1.45. Our price target
Price performance chart corresponds to a multiple of 0.6x TBV (2016E) and implies 45% upside to the SCI issue price (€1.00). We have a
30 560
Neutral rating on the shares. We adjust our estimates and valuation to reflect the recent recaps, front loading of

Exhibit 58: Recapitalization framework provides the foundation for the capital hikes
Key provisions of the Bank Recapitalizations Law approved by the Hellenic Parliament
Private investor to cover at least base case capital needs via ABB structure
● The banks will need to cover at least base case capital shortfalls with private funds in order to avoid
resolution mechanism.
Private
Recaps ● Capital needs related to adverse case (“precautionary recap”) may be covered with public sector
funds (HFSF).
● The capital increase is to be structured as accelerated book build (ABB). Banks will be given 10 days
to approve the share offerings with recaps to be completed by the year end.
Bail-in possible even if public funds injected only for precautionary reasons
● Before any HFSF funds are deployed, bank liabilities including hybrids/prefs, sub-debt and senior
unsecured bonds can be bailed-in
State-Aid: ● The law gives the cabinet discretion (subject to BoG proposal, EC approval) to protect selected
Bail-in creditors on the grounds of financial stability, low level of public support (%RWAs) or significant level
of private sector involvement (% shortfall)
● Bailed-in instruments cannot be worse off than it would be the case under the bank
resolution/liquidation (as per BRRD).

The ECB stress test in 2015 was a third detailed study into the health and financial state of
the Greek banks since 2013, preceded by a Bank of Greece stress test in 2013 and a
European-wide Comprehensive Assessment carried out by the ECB in 2014. The results of
the 2015 stress test, resulting in a shortfall of €4.4 bn under the base and €14.4 bn under
the adverse case respectively, compare to the €5.8 bn and €8.8 bn shortfalls identified by
the BoG stress test in 2013. Importantly, the ECB Comprehensive Assessment in 2014
resulted in no shortfall for the Greek banks under a dynamic balance sheet assumption.
Exhibit 64: Capital shortfall of €4.4 bn and €14.4 bn identified in the 2015 stress test for base and adverse case
respectively compares to €5.8 bn and €8.8 bn in BoG stress test in 2013 and no shortfall in ECB 2014 stress test

The capital injection into Greek banks after the ECB stress test in 2015 is a third round of
recapitalization since 2013, with the first two rounds totaling €36.3 bn of new capital. In
2013, the banks were injected with €28 bn primarily as a result of losses incurred from PSI,
followed by €8.3 bn of recaps post the BoG stress test.
Exhibit 65: The capital injection into Greek banks after the ECB comprehensive assessment in 2015 is a third round of

The introduction of capital controls occurred in the context of the rescue package agreed
between Cyprus and the Troika, first announced on March 17, 2013. The programme
included measures necessary to recapitalize the local banking sector.
As part of the programme, Cyprus agreed to introduce a one-off tax on deposits. The initial
proposal suggested a levy of 6.7% on deposit amounts of < €100k and a 9.9% tax on
deposit amounts of >€100k. Given disagreements over losses on small retail deposits, the
scheme was revised. The final agreement applied a 47.5% haircut to all balances >€100k
and incorporated a bail-in of equity holders, bond holders, and large deposits at Laiki Bank.

unwind

The case of Cyprus suggests that capital controls may create significant asset quality
headwinds in the near term. The imposed restrictions on access to deposits are likely to put
additional pressure on borrowers and may further erode the payment culture. In the case
of Cyprus, the NPL ratio increased from c.15% to 40% within one year of the introduction of
capital controls and peaked at 45% in 2014. This compares with a ratio of around 33%
reported in Greece last year, up from 25% in 1Q13.

Disclosure Appendix
Reg AC
We, Pawel Dziedzic and Markus Pops, hereby certify that all of the views expressed in this report accurately reflect our personal views about the
subject company or companies and its or their securities. We also certify that no part of our compensation was, is or will be, directly or indirectly,
related to the specific recommendations or views expressed in this report.
Unless otherwise stated, the individuals listed on the cover page of this report are analysts in Goldman Sachs' Global Investment Research division.
Investment Profile
The Goldman Sachs Investment Profile provides investment context for a security by comparing key attributes of that security to its peer group and
market. The four key attributes depicted are: growth, returns, multiple and volatility. Growth, returns and multiple are indexed based on composites
of several methodologies to determine the stocks percentile ranking within the region's coverage universe.
The precise calculation of each metric may vary depending on the fiscal year, industry and region but the standard approach is as follows:
Growth is a composite of next year's estimate over current year's estimate, e.g. EPS, EBITDA, Revenue. Return is a year one prospective aggregate
of various return on capital measures, e.g. CROCI, ROACE, and ROE. Multiple is a composite of one-year forward valuation ratios, e.g. P/E, dividend
yield, EV/FCF, EV/EBITDA, EV/DACF, Price/Book. Volatility is measured as trailing twelve-month volatility adjusted for dividends.
Quantum
Quantum is Goldman Sachs' proprietary database providing access to detailed financial statement histories, forecasts and ratios. It can be used for
in-depth analysis of a single company, or to make comparisons between companies in different sectors and markets.
GS SUSTAIN
GS SUSTAIN is a global investment strategy aimed at long-term, long-only performance with a low turnover of ideas. The GS SUSTAIN focus list
includes leaders our analysis shows to be well positioned to deliver long term outperformance through sustained competitive advantage and
superior returns on capital relative to their global industry peers. Leaders are identified based on quantifiable analysis of three aspects of corporate
performance: cash return on cash invested, industry positioning and management quality (the effectiveness of companies' management of the
environmental, social and governance issues facing their industry).
