Interim report 1 January – 30 June 2014: Volume growth and stronger profits

SBAB’s CEO, Per Anders Fasth, comments: SBAB’s operating profit, which continued to grow stronger in the second quarter of the year, amounted to SEK 502 million. Return on equity amounted to 14.3%, exceeding the 10% target. Positive volume growth The lending business remained affected by strong competition in the market, but SBAB still experienced positive volume growth in the quarter. New lending to households rose, while new lending to companies and tenant-owner associations were in line with the previous quarter. SBAB’s total lending amounted to SEK 259 billion at midyear. During the period, SBAB adapted its residential mortgage product according to the Swedish Bankers’ Association’s recommendation regarding individual repayment plans, which entered into effect on 1 July. The second quarter was also characterised by continued stable growth in deposits, which now amount to SEK 55 billion. Positive information from Moody’s Early in the year, the rating agency Moody’s initiated a review of SBAB’s rating, which could have resulted in a potential downgrade. The review was finalised in June, whereupon the current long- and short-term ratings were confirmed by Moody’s.
