Press Release
Home Credit Bank’s IFRS results for the first nine months of
2013: high efficiency and strong revenues combat changing
market conditions
Moscow, 27 November 2013: Home Credit and Finance Bank (hereinafter also referred to
as “HCFB”, “Home Credit Bank” or the “Bank”) reports consolidated results of the banks
in Russia and Kazakhstan for the first nine months of 2013 under the International
Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS). HCFB’s credit ratings are Ba3 by Moody’s and BB
by Fitch, and its wholly-owned subsidiary Home Credit Bank (Kazakhstan) has been rated
BB- by Fitch.
“Despite the difficult market situation, our Bank retains high efficiency and good income ratios.
Net profit for the first nine months was RUB 9.4 billion and return on capital was 23.8%.
Retail banking in Russia is maturing. The tightening of requirements for borrowers is leading to
escalating competition for good quality clients. The ability to adapt quickly is one of our Bank’s
main competitive advantages. We have adjusted our business model, emphasising the quality of
service and credit portfolio. We have stepped up our efforts to increase our share of the credit
card market. This is a more sophisticated product, offering great opportunities in terms of client
segmentation and catering for our clients’ needs. These changes will improve our Bank’s
competitiveness as it faces these new market conditions.”
Ivan Svítek,
Chairman of the Board of Directors, HCFB
HIGHLIGHTS
The Bank’s net profit for the first nine months of 2013 was 9.4 billion roubles,
down 23% on the same period last year, which is attributable primarily to the
general market trend of deteriorating quality of assets. This result is in line with
the expectations announced by HCFB earlier this year. The Bank earned RUB 1.8
billion in the third quarter of 2013. The Bank posts good results in terms of the net
percentage margin (19.6%) and return on average equity (ROAE), which was 23.8%.
The Bank’s assets amounted to RUB 375.8 billion.
Operating income for the period under review reflected the increase in the Bank’s
business activity and has risen 63.9% to RUB 67.5 billion compared with the same
period of the preceding year (RUB 41.2 billion for the first three quarters of 2012).
The net loan portfolio grew 22.2% to RUB 290 billion (Q3 2012: RUB 237.3 billion)
for the first nine months of 2013. Credit provided amounted to RUB 262.1 billion
(Q3 2012: RUB 185.9 billion). Cash loans were the principal driver behind the growth of
the credit portfolio, increasing 24.6% compared with the same period last year. Despite
this, the rate of growth in credit provided decreased in the second half of the year as a
result of tighter requirements for underwriting and the introduction of new regulatory
measures. Home Credit Bank currently provides services to almost 5 million active
clients in Russia and Kazakhstan through 1,172 branches, 8,051 micro-branches and
more than 88,000 points of sale and 1,323 ATMs. At 30 September 2013, the Bank’s
client base comprised 28.5 million customers.
The volume of individual client deposits and current accounts grew 44.3% since
the beginning of the year, climbing to RUB 251.5 billion and accounting for 78% of
the Bank’s total liabilities. As a result, the loan to deposit ratio decreased from 136.2%
at 31 December to 115.3% at the end of 1H 2013, demonstrating the decreasing
dependence on wholesale financing.
The non-performing loan (NPL) ratio increased to 9.9% (compared with 6.5% on 31
December 2012) due to the market trend of deteriorating asset quality. Aiming to
boost the stability of its rapidly growing loan portfolio, the Bank pursues a conservative
approach to provisioning with an NPL coverage ratio of 125.6%.
Home Credit Bank remains highly capitalised. Its capital adequacy ratio was 21%
on 30 September 2013 (compared with 21.4% at the end of 2012). In October, the
Bank placed Eurobonds to the tune of USD 200 million in connection with Basel III
requirements. In November, the Central Bank of Russia registered a subordinated
loan of the Bank that will enable it to include the funds in additional capital
resources, effectively improving its capital adequacy ratio.
Note: HCFB acquired 100% of the shares of Home Credit Bank (Kazakhstan) on 31 December 2012. Therefore the
latter company’s results were not included in the Q3 2012 results, but were consolidated in the results at the end of
Q3 2013.

FINANCIAL SUMMARY
KEY RATIOS
2
1) RoAA as an annual percentage is calculated as net profit divided by average balance of total assets for the
same period. The assets of the Kazakh bank were excluded from the calculation of the ratio for 2012 because
it was acquired on 31 December 2012, as a result of which the bank did not contribute to 2012 revenues.
2) RoAE is calculated as net profit divided by average balance of equity. The assets of the Kazakh bank were
excluded from the calculation of the ratio for 2012 because it was acquired on 31 December 2012, as a result
of which the bank did not contribute to 2012 revenues.
3) The cost-to-income ratio is calculated as general administrative expenses divided by operating income.
4) The NPL ratio is calculated as gross loans overdue by more than 90 days divided by total gross loans.
5) The cost-of-risk ratio is calculated as impairment losses divided by average balance of net loans to customers
in an annual representation. The loan portfolio of the Kazakh bank was excluded from the calculation of the
ratio for 2012 because it was acquired on 31 December 2012, as a result of which the Bank had no influence
on impairment losses for 2012.
