1Q20 Net Income of AR$454 million and Comprehensive net income of AR$405 million, both figures including inflation adjustment effects
Buenos Aires, May 28, 2020 - 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-month period ended March 31, 2020.
Starting 1Q20, the Company began reporting results applying Hyperinflation Accounting, in accordance to IFRS rule IAS 29 (“IAS 29”) as established by the Central Bank. For ease of comparison, figures for all quarters of 2019 have been restated applying IAS 29 to reflect the accumulated effect of the inflation adjustment for each period through March 31, 2020. More information can be found in the Section “Hyperinflation Accounting in Argentina” on page 56. This report also includes Managerial figures which exclude the IAS29 adjustment for 1Q20 and present 1Q19, 2Q19, 3Q19 and 4Q19 figures as they were previously reported according to Central Bank Rules until December 31, 2019 and before the adoption of Rule IAS29 this quarter.
Details with regard to the Argentine government’s social aid, monetary and fiscal measures to mitigate the economic impact of the COVID-19 pandemic can be found on page 56, while the specific measures taken by Grupo Supervielle in response to the pandemic may be found on page 11.
Management Commentary
Commenting on first quarter 2020 results, Jorge Ramirez, Grupo Supervielle's CEO, noted:“As we navigate this unprecedented global health and economic crisis, we are focusing on three key strategic areas: protecting the health of our employees and customers, while supporting our communities through donations to social agencies and other initiatives, ensuring operational continuity and accelerating our digital transformation to optimize our customers’ experience. Importantly, our high liquidity and comfortable capitalization levels strengthen our long-term sustainability in a rapidly changing environment.
Responding early to the COVID-19 pandemic, we established remote working for over 95% of non-branch employees, rotation of half of our branch staff every two weeks and 100% remote work for some of our subsidiaries, in advance of the mandatory shelter-in-place established by the government on March 19, 2020. Stricter sanitation procedures were set up across our branches that remain open for limited transactions. More recently, as restrictions are being gradually lifted, we have implemented back-to-work protocols for essential employees to safeguard their health and wellbeing.
With a focus on supporting our customers, we have rapidly adjusted operations, accelerated digitalization and implemented a series of measures to promote safe banking and provide financial relief. For example, for senior citizens, which are a significant portion of our customer base, we adapted our ATM network infrastructure, we added functionalities to our online applications as well as in transactional channels and updated procedures to facilitate their banking needs. This has translated in a significant increase in the use of digital and automatic transactional channels. We are also supporting SMEs with their payroll and working capital needs through loans promoted by the government; and have launched specific credit lines for SMEs in the health and transportation sectors. On the digital transformation front, we are also adding functionalities across personal and corporate banking, as well as consumer finance to rapidly meet current and future needs.
Looking ahead, the path to economic recovery remains uncertain and is largely dependent on the depth and duration of this global health crisis and the government’s measures to contain the outbreak and actions to mitigate the economic impact. The pace of the recovery will also depend on the resolution of the Argentine sovereign debt restructuring, and a combination of all of the above factors will certainly impact the overall system asset quality We will continue to closely monitor our loan portfolio and make adjustments accordingly.
In this environment, as I mentioned earlier, we remain focused on implementing the highest possible standards to protect the health of our employees and customers, ensure continuity of our operations and accelerate initiatives, such as the digital transformation process, that will enhance our ability to continue to provide the customized and elevated level of service that distinguishes our Company,”, concluded Mr. Ramirez.

PROFITABILITY
Profit before income tax of AR$797.0 million in 1Q20 compared to a AR$631.8 million loss in 1Q19 and a AR$928.4 million loss in 4Q19. Excluding the impact of IAS29, Profit before income tax, would have been Ps.1.8 billion in 1Q20 up 137.8% YoY and 72.9% QoQ.
QoQ improvement was explained by: i) a 15.2% decrease in Personnel & Administrative Expenses, (ii) a smaller impact of inflation adjustment due to deceleration in inflation in 1Q20 compared to 4Q19, and (iii) an increase in Net Service Fee Income mainly from fees repricing throughout the quarter. These were partially offset by (i) lower Net Financial Income as 4Q19 benefitted from price improvements in reprofiled government short term treasury notes and (ii) higher LLP based on expected losses according to IFRS9.
· | Attributable Net income of AR$453.4 million in 1Q20, compared to AR$1.4 billion loss in 1Q19 and AR$759.4 million loss in 4Q19. Excluding the impact of IAS29, Attributable Net income would have been AR$1.5 billion in 1Q20 increasing 148.8% YoY and remaining stable as compared to 4Q19. 1Q20 net income reflects an AR$343.2 million charge in Income Tax compared to an AR$168.6 million gain in 4Q19. |
ROAE of 7.7% in 1Q20 compares to -20.1% in 1Q19 and -13.1% in 4Q19. ROAE in 1Q20 benefitted from deceleration in the inflation pace (7.8% in the quarter) compared to ROAE in 4Q19 and 1Q19 when inflation peaked at 11.7% and 11.8% respectively. Excluding the impact of IAS29, ROAE would have been 26.4% in 1Q20 compared to 13.6% in 1Q19 and 28.4% in 4Q19.
ROAAof 1.0% in 1Q20 compared to -2.2% in 1Q19 and -1.7% in 4Q19. Excluding the impact of IAS29, ROAA would have been 3.5% in 1Q20 compared to 1.5% in 1Q19 and 3.7% in 4Q19.
Revenues were down 8.5% YoY and flat QoQ. Excluding adoption of IAS29, Total revenues would have increased 36.8% YoY and 5.6% QoQ.
MARGIN
Net Financial Income of AR$7.4 billion was down 11.7% YoY and 13.8% QoQ. In 4Q19, NFI income was AR$1.3 billion benefitted from price improvements in reprofiled short term AR$ and US$ Argentine treasury notes held by Supervielle. Excluding this non recurring income in 4Q19, NFI in 1Q20 would have increased 0.9% mainly explained by a 950 basis points (bps) decrease in AR$ cost of funds following the decline in market interest rates, while interest on loans continued to benefit from additional repricing in personal loans, partially offset by a 2,600 bps decrease in the average yield of the Central Bank 7 days Leliqs, from 68.7% to 42.4%. Excluding the impact of IAS29, Net Financial Income, would have been Ps. 7.2 billion in 1Q20 increasing 32.1% YoY but down 5.5% QoQ. Excluding non recurring income in 4Q19, comparable non restated NFI figures would have reflected a 10.7% increase QoQ.
Net Interest Margin (NIM) of 22.8% was up 388 bps YoY, but declined 592 bps QoQ. Excluding the price improvement impact of reprofiled short term Argentine treasury notes held by Supervielle in 4Q19, NIM would have decreased 180 bps in the quarter. This decrease reflects the strong increase in assets, mainly driven by: i) an increase in holdings of Central Bank Leliqs by raising wholesale deposits to take advantage of higher spreads on Leliqs; and ii) the abovementioned 2,600 bps decline in the average yield of the Central Bank Leliqs. These effects were partially offset by the 950 bps decrease in AR$ cost of funds following the decline in market interest rates, and the continued lagged repricing of the AR$ portfolio. AR$ Loan portfolio NIM in the quarter was 30.0% compared to 28.3% in 4Q19.

Note: In 1Q20 and 4Q19, AR$3.8 billion and AR$1.3 billion yield from investments in 7-day Central Bank securities had been recorded in NII since the Company changed in October 2019, the classification of these securities into “at Fair value through other comprehensive income”. 4Q19 NIFFI account, still recorded AR$1.4 billion of these securities yield before the change in classification was made.
ASSET QUALITY
The total NPL ratio increased by 140 bps YoY but declined 70 bps QoQ to 6.7% in 1Q20. QoQ performance was explained by a 80 bps decrease in Personal and Business Segment NPL and 720 bps decrease in Consumer Finance NPL. QoQ decline benefitted from Central Bank regulatory easing amid the pandemic on debtor classifications (adding a 60 days grace period before the loan is classified as NPL) and the suspension of mandatory reclassification of customers that are non performing with other banks, but performing with Supervielle.
Loan loss provisions (LLP) totaled AR$1.6 billion in 1Q20, decreasing 45.4% YoY but increasing 32.0% QoQ. In 1Q20, levels of provisioning reflect expected losses arising from adoption of Central Bank implementation of IFRS9 rule, effective on January 1, 2020 except for consumer finance segment, but includes only a non-material amount for a Covid-19 potential impact.. The coverage ratio increased to 99.6%, from 83.0% in 4Q19, due to increased loan loss provisions in the quarter and benefitting from the above mentioned regulatory easing. As of March 31, 2020 collateralized non-performing commercial loans increased to 61% of total, from 58% as of December 31, 2019 and 20% as of June 30, 2019.
EXPENSES & EFFICIENCY
Efficiency ratiowas 60.4% in 1Q20 declining 410 bps from 1Q19 and 1,600 bps from 4Q19. Excluding non-recurring severance and early retirement charges of AR$880 million in 4Q19, efficency in 1Q20 improved 620 bps QoQ mainly due to the decrease in administrative expenses reflecting streamlining undertaken in 2019 and strict cost control actions implemented by the Company while revenues remained flat.

LIQUIDITY
Loans to deposits ratio of 68.1% was down from 74.9% as of March 31, 2019 and from 103.5% as of December 31, 2019. AR$ loans to AR$ deposits ratio was 62.3% compared to 78.3% on March 31, 2019 and 107.6% as of December 31, 2019. The ratio reflects the QoQ 60.9% increase in AR$ deposits following the increase in AR$ wholesale and institutional deposits raised to fund increased investments in Central Bank 7-day Leliqs and the 14.8% increase in core peso franchise deposits, while AR$ loans remained flat. The 4Q19 ratio reflected the Company’s decision to deleverage its balance sheet and year end liquidity management. As of March 31, 2020, the Liquid US$ Assets to US$ deposits ratio was 61%, while Liquid AR$ Assets to AR$ deposits ratio was 60%.
Total Depositsmeasured in AR$ unit at the end of 1Q20 declined 16.5% YoY but increased 41.5% QoQ to AR$135.8 billion. AR$ deposits rose 3.1% YoY and 60.9% QoQ. Foreign currency deposits (measured in US$) declined 58.2% YoY and 4.1% QoQ, following industry trends since August 2019.
ASSETS
Loans measured in AR$ unit at the end of 1Q20 declined 24.0% YoY and 7.2% QoQ to AR$92.2 billion. The AR$ Loan portfolio rose 17.9% YoY and 6.9% QoQ. FX loans, measured in US$, declined 39.4% YoY and 8.0% QoQ. YoY and QoQ inflation was 48.4% and 7.8% respectively.
Total Assets down 19.8% YoY but up 22.4% QoQ, to AR$197.0 billion. QoQ performance reflects the increase in holdings of Central Bank Leliqs by raising wholesale deposits to take advantage of higher spreads on Leliqs, following the balance sheet deleveraging in prior quarter.
CAPITAL
Common Equity Tier 1 Ratio as of March 31, 2020, was 13.3%, compared to the 11.3% reported as of December 31, 2019 and 11.9% reported as of March 31, 2019. The QoQ increase reflects initial IAS29 adjustment on non monetary assets, and Central Bank regulatory easing on provisions amid the Covid-19 pandemic that allows banks to consider as Tier 1 Common Equity, the difference between expected loss provisions recorded following IFRS9, and provisions recorded as of November 30, 2019 under the previous accounting framework. On a proforma basis, if having impacted by December 31, 2019 inflation adjustment, Tier 1 ratio would have been 12.1%.

Supervielle Measures in the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic environment
The ongoing COVID-19 pandemic and government measures taken to contain the spread of the virus are adversely affecting the Company businesses. Branches were required to remain closed during the second half of March 2020, and have subsequently only gradually been allowed to open with limited operations. As of the date, banks are permitted to open to provide limited services to clients with prior appointments, provided that certain health and safety requirements set forth by the Central Bank are complied with. Details with regard to the Argentine government’s social aid, monetary and fiscal measures to mitigate the economic impact of the COVID-19 pandemic which also impact the Company’s operations, can be found on page 56.
Since early March 2020, Supervielle’s management has been actively monitoring the evolution of the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic and the impact it may have on the business. Measures have been taken rapidly as the situation continued to evolve, focusing mainly in protecting the Company’s employees and customers and ensuring the continuity of business operations. On March 13, 2020, even before the nationwide lockdown was declared, the Company implemented a protocol, which included enhancing online security measures, by which a significant part of its workforce began to work remotely.
The Company has taken other measures such as the implementation of a back-to-work protocol for essential employees, which included the rotation of teams within the Company’s branches, the incorporation of medical personnel to the crisis management teams, online psychological assistance for employees, and online yoga and gym classes. As of the date of this earnings report, approximately 96% of the Company’s non branch employees are working remotely, while the branch staff are divided into two teams which rotate every 2 weeks.
Since the beginning of the COVID-19 pandemic crisis in Argentina, the Company has been encouraging its customers to use its digital channels. Since the senior citizens’ segment (which are a significant portion of Supervielle’s customers base and are more vulnerable to the effects of the virus) is generally less familiar with the online or mobile banking platforms, the Company implemented a direct and free exclusive telephone line to assist them and released tutorials through social media . Additionally, the Company made numerous debit cards reprints and deliveries as well as debit card resets for non-user clients, adapted the existing biometric recognition technology for customers to withdraw money from the ATMs without a debit card. Additional features have been released in the mobile app for senior citizens with the purpose of reducing their need to personally attend a branch.
With respect to SMEs, the Company has made available loans promoted by the Argentine government at a 24% interest rate, to assist them with payroll payments and working capital needs. The Company has also launched specific credit lines for SMEs in the health and the transportation sectors. As of the date of this earnings release report, the Bank has granted loans at a 24% interest rate for an approximate amount of Ps. 8 billion.
Grupo Supervielle has announced donations of Ps.13 million to social organizations located throughout the country, funds which will be applied to social initiatives related to the COVID-19 pandemic, such as the purchase of medical equipment for health centers and the provision of food for the most vulnerable communities in the City of Buenos Aires and the Provinces of Buenos Aires, Mendoza and San Luis.
The Company faces various risks arising from the economic impact of the pandemic and related government measures which are difficult to predict accurately at this time. These risks include (i) a higher risk of impairment of the Company’s assets, (ii) lower revenues as a consequence of the temporary restrictions on charging certain fees to customers, and as a result of lower interest rates on loans promoted by the Central Bank, (iii) a possible significant increase in loan defaults and credit losses, with a consequent increase in loan loss provisions, and (iv) a decrease in credit demand and in the business activity in general, particularly new retail lending. Certain factors that could offset tthese risks include (i) the reduction of the cost of funding, which has been decreasing since the beginning of the COVID-19 pandemic crisis, and (ii) the structure of its liabilities, as the Company estimates will not face liquidity contraints as a result of the pandemic.
12
The Company continues to monitor the impact of the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic on its business, and will implement all possible actions to preserve health of its employees and to ensure continuity of operations. Grupo Supervielle will continue focusing on improving efficiency while keeping its differentiated strategy to capture growth, remaining flexible under this particularly volatile and challenging scenario. The ultimate impact of the pandemic on its business, results of operations and financial condition remains highly uncertain and will depend on future developments outside of the Company control, including the intensity and duration of the pandemic and the government measures taken in order to contain the virus or mitigate the economic impact.

Profit before income taxof AR$797.2 million in 1Q20 compared to losses of AR$631.8 million in 1Q19 and AR$928.4 million in 4Q19. Excluding the impact of IAS29, Profit before income tax, would have been Ps.1.8 billion in 1Q20 up 137.8% YoY and 72.9% QoQ.
QoQ improvement was explained by: i) a 15.2% decrease in Personnel and Administrative Expenses, that excluding the AR$880 million in non recurring severance and early retirement charges in 4Q19 decreased 3% reflecting a combination of strict cost control actions implemented by the Company, the streamling of operations in 2019, and salaries increases following the bargaining agreements between banks and unions during the quarter which included fixed sums of money for all employees and (ii) a decrease in Result from exposure to changes in the purchasing power of the currency due to slower growth pace in inflation in 1Q20 compared to 4Q19, and (iii) an increase in Net Service Fee Income mainly from fees repricing throughout the quarter surpassing the increase in inflation. These were partially offset by (i) lower Net Financial Income as 4Q19 benefitted from price improvements in reprofiled Argentine short term treasury notes and (ii) higher LLP based on expected losses according to IFRS9.

(Net Interest Income -NII-, Net Income from Financial Instruments -NIFFI- & Exchange Rate Differences on Gold and Foreign Currency)
Net Financial Income of AR$7.4 billion, down 11.7% YoY and 13.8% QoQ. In 4Q19, NFI income had recorded AR$1.3 billion results from price improvements of reprofiled short term Argentine AR$ and US$ treasury notes held by Supervielle. Excluding this non recurrent income in 4Q19, NFI in 1Q20 would have increased 0.9%, mainly explained by a 950 bps decrease in AR$ cost of funds following the trend of decreasing market interest rates, while interest on loans continued to benefit from additional repricing in personal loans. These impacts were partially offset by a 2,600 bps decrease in the average yield of the Central Bank 7 days Leliqs, from 68.7% to 42.4%.

Excluding the impact of IAS29, Net Financial Income, would have been Ps. 7.2 billion in 1Q20 increasing 32.1% YoY but down 5.5% QoQ. Excluding non recurring income in 4Q19, comparable non restated NFI figures would have increased 10.7% sequentially.

Note: In 1Q20 and 4Q19, AR$3.8 billion and AR$1.3 billion yield from investments in 7-day Central Bank securities had been recorded in NII since the Company changed in October 2019, the classification of these securities into “at Fair value through other comprehensive income”. 4Q19 NIFFI account, still recorded AR$1.4 billion of these securities yield before the change in classification was made.
Net Interest Income was AR$7.0 billion, compared to AR$1.9 billion in 1Q19 and AR$4.9 billion in 4Q19. In the quarter, NII benefitted from (i) a 950 bps decrease in AR$ cost of funds following the decrease in market interest rates, (ii) the lagged repricing of the AR$ loan portfolio, and iii) higher average volumes of Central Bank Leliqs. These were partially offset by a 11.6% increase in the average balance of high cost interest bearing liabilities to fund increased investments in Central Bank 7-day Leliqs. In the previous quarter the Company had decided to deleverage its balance sheet reducing wholesale institutional funding.
Moreover, QoQ and YoY comparisons were impacted by the change in the classification and therefore accounting methodology for all new Central Bank Securities and sovereign bonds acquired by the Company since October 2019. In 1Q20 and 4Q18, AR$ 3.8 billion and AR$1.3 billion yield from investments in high margin 7-day Central Bank securities has been recorded in NII following the Fair value through other comprehensive income methodology since October 2019. In previous quarters, when those securities were classified as Held for trading securities, yields from those investments were recorded in NIFFI following the Fair value through profit or loss accounting methodology while deposits to fund those marginal investments were reflected in Net Interest Income.
As of March 31, 2020 and as of December 31, 2019, AR$ 41.3 billion and AR$7.8 billion respectively of short-term securities issued by the Central Bank -7 day high-yield Leliqs- were classified in the available for sale category, and accordingly valued at fair value through other comprehensive income methodology together with the cost of the higher balance of interest-bearing liabilities raised to fund those investments, both reflected in Net Interest Income. In previous quarters the balance of these securities was classified as held for trading 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, was recorded as interest expenses within Net Interest Income.
Below is a breakdown of the securities portfolio held as of March 31, 2020, 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 those held for the purpose of collecting 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. Since January 1, 2020, the reprofiled Letes held by the Company were changed from Held for trading to this security class, as allowed by the Central Bank through Communication A 6847. When changed to this category, the Letes were recorded at the market price as of December 31, 2019, and since then have accrued implicit yield, unless the market price decreases below the recorded value. If market value is lower than book value, accrual of interests and exchange rate difference must be suspended until the market price reaches the prior level. No negative impact was reflected in the quarter in interest income nor in other comprehensive impact when prices decreased along 1Q20 below the December 31, 2019 level. |
17
b) | Fair value through other comprehensive income (“Available for sale”): Assets measured at fair value through other comprehensive income are those held for the purpose of both collecting contractual cash flows and selling financial 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 those held for the purpose 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 amortized cost. As mentioned above, since January 1, 2020, all reprofiled Letes held by the Company, were re-classified to “Held to maturity”, from “Held for trading”. Additionally, on January 20, 2020, the Company entered into the exchange offered by the Argentine government for some of the reprofiled Lecaps held, and received Lebads payable at 6 and 9 months term, which were classified as “Available for sale”. Any further price changes in these Lebads will be therefore recognized at fair value through other comprehensive income. In May, 2020, the Company participated in a voluntary Argentine US$ Treasury notes (LETES) swap for Treasury Bonds in Pesos adjustable by CER (BONCER) which were also classified as “Available for sale”. 100% of Supervielle holdings of Letes were swaped for Boncer. |

Net Interest Margin (NIM) of 22.8% was up 384 bps YoY, but declined 597 bps QoQ. Excluding the benefit in 4Q19 from the price improvement in reprofiled short term Argentine treasury notes held by Supervielle in 4Q19, NIM would have decreased 180 bps in the quarter. This decrease reflects: i) the strong increase in assets, mainly driven by higher holdings in Central Bank Leliqs acquired by applying wholesale deposits raised to take advantage of higher spreads on Leliqs, and ii) the abovementioned 2,600 bps decline in the average yield of the Central Bank Leliqs. This was partially offset by the 950 bps decrease in AR$ cost of funds following the decline in market interest rates, and continued lagged repricing of the AR$ loan portfolio. AR$ Loan portfolio NIM in the quarter was 30.0% compared to 28.3% in 4Q19.

In the quarter, AR$ loans benefitted from continuing repricing in Personal Loans and lagged repricing in commercial loans, as Peso loans rates decreased on average 675 bps QoQ, while market interest rates decreased 1,480 bps in the quarter.
In 4Q19, AR$ and US$ yield on investment portfolio benefitted from price improvements of reprofiled Argentine short term AR$ and US$ treasury notes. In 3Q19, the investment portfolio was impacted by price declines after the debt reprofiling announced by the Argentine government in August 2019.
AR$ cost of funds decreased 950 bps in the quarter due to a 1,750 bps decrease in AR$ rate of interest bearing liabilities following market interest rates which was partially offset by a 23.6% increase in AR$ Interest Bearing Liabilities average volumes while AR$ Low & Non-Interest Bearing Deposits average volumes increased 2.5%.
US$ cost of funds decreased 40 bps in the quarter following industry trends.
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 1Q20 lacks the negative impact of the 8% increase of the FX rate as of March 31, 2020 compared to the FX rate as of December 31, 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.

As of March 31, 2020, AR$ liabilities repriced on average in 35 days compared to 67 days as of the close of the previous quarter. This reflects the increase of institutional sight deposit compared to previous quarter where the Company’s decision was to deleverage its balance sheet, sharply reducing institutional sight deposits. Portfolio repricing dynamics as of March 31, 2020 show that AR$ total Assets are fully repriced in 134 days, and AR$ loans are fully repriced in an average term of approximately 215 days.

1. | Includes results from securities issued by the Central Bank, results from other Securities recorded as available for sale since 4Q19 and results from Repo Transactions |
The YoY increase in interest income was mainly due to AR$3.8 billion yield from investments in 7-day Central Bank securities following the change in classification of these securities in 4Q19 in the category “Available for Sale” from the “Held for Trading” security class. Yields from these holdings, were recorded in NIFFI until October 2019. This was partially offset by a 21.4% decrease in average loan volumes excluding Foreign trade and US$ loans, a 36.9% decrease in average Foreign trade and US$ loans (measured in AR$), and a 50 bps decrease in the average interest rate on total loans, excluding foreign trade and US dollar denominated loans, while the average interest rate on foreign trade and US dollar denominated loans increased 60 bps.
Interest on AR$ loans benefitted from lagged repricing as these rates decreased 50 bps YoY while market interest rates decreased 860 bps YoY.

Result from exposure to changes in the purchasing power of the currency
Pursuant to IAS 29, the financial statements of an entity whose functional currency is that of a highly inflationary economy, should be reported measured in terms of the measuring unit current as of the date of the financial statements. All the amounts included in the statement of financial position which are not stated in terms of the measuring unit current as of the date of the financial statements should be restated adjusted applying the general price index. All items in the statement of income should be stated in terms of the measuring unit current as of the date of the financial statements, applying the changes in the general price index occurred from the date on which the revenues and expenses were originally recognized in the financial statements.
Adjustment for inflation in the initial balances has been calculated considering the indexes based on the price indexes published by the Argentine National Institute of Statistics and Census.
The effect of inflation in the Company’s net monetary position is included in the consolidated income statement, in the item “Results from exposure to changes in the purchasing power of money.”
Result from exposure to changes in the purchasing power of the currency for 1Q20 totaled a AR$869.3 million loss, from the AR$1.7 billion loss recorded in 1Q19 and the AR$1.9 billion loss recorded in 4Q19. This decrease was due to lower level of inflation in 1Q20 reaching 7.8% compared to the 11.7% and 11.8% levels in 1Q19 and 4Q19 respectively.
29
Net service fee income (excluding Income from Insurance Activities)in 1Q20 totaled AR$1.7 billion, decreasing 8.5% YoY but increasing 15.0% from 4Q19. QoQ fee repricing of product bundles to all customer segments surpassed the inflation level in the quarter, while fee expenses increased below inflation.
Excluding the impact of IAS29, Net service fee income (excluding Income from Insurance Activities) would have been AR$1.7 billion in 1Q20 increasing 37.8% YoY and 25.5% QoQ.

Other includes certain insurance fees, custody and depositary fees, among others
The main contributors to service fee income in 1Q20 were deposit accounts, credit cards commissions and non-credit related insurance, representing 43%, 33% and 20% respectively of the total.
YoY, service fee income remained flat due to:
· | 3.5%, or AR$ 35.2 million increase, in deposit account fees, reflecting the fee repricing along the year in product bundles, |
· | 2.5%, or AR$ 19.0 million, in credit cards, reflecting higher volumes partially offset by the reduction in credit card and debit card merchant discount rates (“MDR”). The maximum MDR for 2019 was 1.65%, while since January 1, 2020 it was reduced to 1.50%. The maximum debit card sales commissions for 2019 was 0.80% while since January 1, 2020 it is 0.7%, and |
· | 1.9%, or AR$9.1 million, in other fees, mainly from the sale of non-financial services and repricing of non-credit related insurance premiums. |
These were offset by a 34.4% or AR$34.7 million decrease in Loan Related fees and a 56.3% or AR$27.2 million decrease in leasing commission, both reflecting the decline in credit demand
The QoQ performance is explained by a 17.5%, or AR$ 155.3 million increase in deposit account fees mainly due to the repricing of bundle products to all customer segments in the quarter, a 53.7% or AR$ 170.5 million increase in revenues from asset management business -that in 4Q19 was negatively impacted-, non-financial services and non-credit related insurance products. These were partially offset by the decline in credit cards commissions due to the abovementioned decrease in MDR that came into effect on January 1, 2020, while credit card volumes remained below inflation.
Service fee expensesincreased 32.3% YoY and 5.5% QoQ to AR$669.4 million in 1Q20. YoY primarily explained by the increase in Commissions paid reflecting higher costs paid to the credit and debit cards’ processors on higher volumes and higher prices.
Income from Insurance Activities
Income from insurance activities includes insurance premiums, net of insurance reserves and production costs.
Income from Insurance activities of AR$ 323.4 million up 0.6% from 1Q19 but down 12.3% QoQ. Excluding the impact of IAS29, Income from insurance activities would have been AR$289.6 million in 1Q20 increasing 42.0% YoY and 8.5% QoQ.

Gross written premiums were down 3.9% QoQ or AR$19.2 million, explained by a AR$19.2 million decline in life insurance premiums. Claims paid decreased 12.6% or AR$ 9.5 million QoQ.
Pursuant to Communication “A” 6430 issued on January 12, 2018, provisions on Financial Assets Impairment included in paragraph 5.5 of IFRS 9 as from fiscal years starting on January 1, 2020 shall be started.
Through Communications “A” 6778 and 6847 issued on September 5 and December 27, 2019, respectively, the Central Bank introduced a progressive adoption of the impairment model for IFRS 9 in a 5-year period for Group B entities, where Cordial Compañia Financiera (CCF), Supervielle’s consumer finance company, is included. According to this model, the impact on the balance sheet for adopting IFRS 9 (i.e. the difference between loan loss reserves recorded as of December 31, 2019 and those required by the expected losses model) will be recognized in 5 years, recording 5% of such difference in each quarter on a cumulative basis starting March 31, 2020. More recently, amid the Covid-19 outbreak, the Central Bank postponed until 2021 the application of the expected credit losses criteria for Group B entities.
In addition, the Central Bank established a temporary exclusion from the impairment model of IFRS 9 for government-issued debt securities.
As of January 1, 2020 and March 31, 2020, for all portfolios, the Company concluded that three scenarios appropriately captured non-linearities. Scenario weights are determined by a combination of statistical analysis and expert opinion, considering the range of possible outcomes of which each chosen scenario is representative. The evaluation of significant increases in credit risk is carried out using the Probability of Default (PD) Lifetime in the base scenario and the other scenarios, multiplied by the weight associated with each scenario, together with qualitative and backstop indicators. This determines whether the financial instrument is in Stage 1, Stage 2, or Stage 3, and therefore whether to register 12-month PCE or Lifetime. As with any economic forecast, projections and probabilities of occurrence are subject to a high degree of inherent uncertainty, and therefore actual results may be significantly different than projected. The Company considers that these forecasts represent its best estimate of the possible results and has analyzed the non-linear and asymmetric impacts within the different Bank portfolios to establish that the chosen scenarios are representative of the range of possible scenarios.
The most significant assumptions used to estimate the PCE as of March 31, 2020 are presented below:
Parameter | Segment | Macroeconomic variable | Optimistic Scenario | Base scenario | Pessimistic scenario |
Probability of Default | Retail | Real Wage | (3.23)% | (3.64)% | (3.64)% |
Corporate | Badlar | 50.71% | 50.67% | 33.59% | |
Consumer Finance | Monthly Economic Activiy Estimator | 137.26 | 136.88 | 132.93 |
The weights assigned to each scenario as of March 31, 2020 are presented below:
Base scenario | 80% |
Optimistic Scenario | 10% |
Pessimistic scenario | 10% |
Loan loss provisions (LLP) totaled AR$1.6 billion in 1Q20, decreasing 45.4% YoY but increasing 32.0% QoQ. In 1Q20, level of provisioning reflects expected losses according to IFRS9 ruled by the Central Bank, that came into effect on January 1, 2020 except for the Consumer Finance segment.
31
On a yearly basis, LLP provision decreased 45.4% in 1Q20. 1Q19 LLP was penalized by a commercial delinquent loan that was fully provisioned in that quarter.
The 32.0% QoQ increase in loan loss provisions reflects expected losses according to IFRS9 ruled by the Central Bank, effective on January 1, 2020 except for the Consumer Finance segment, following some increases in delinquency in SMEs and small businesses customers segments.
Cost of Risk was 6.8% in 1Q20, compared to 9.8% in 1Q19 and 5.0% in 4Q19. The 1Q19 Cost of risk was penalized by the abovementioned commercial delinquent loan. QoQ increase reflects expected loss models output following some increase in delinquency in SMEs and small businesses during the quarter.
Personal & Business banking segment LLPs amounted to AR$764.4 million in 1Q20, declining 16.1% from 1Q19. Cost of Risk was 7.3% in 1Q20 compared to 6.4% in 1Q19.
Corporate segment LLPs amounted to AR$599.5 million in 1Q20, down from AR$1.3 billion in 1Q19. Cost of Risk was 6.3% in 1Q20 compared to 9.8% in 1Q19. 1Q19 was impacted by the abovementioned commercial delinquent loans.
Consumer finance segment LLPs amounted to AR$201.1 million in 1Q20, down 72.3% from AR$725.3 million in 1Q19, following the decline in NPL creation for the fifth consecutive quarter before the Covid-19 outbreak. Cost of Risk was 13.4% in 1Q20 compared to 23.3% in 1Q19.
TheCoverage ratioincreased to 99.6% from 83.0% in 4Q19, due to increased loan losses provisions in the quarter reflecting expected losses models and benefitting from the Central Bank regulatory easing amid the Covid-19 pandemic on debtor classifications, adding a 60 days grace period before a loan is classified as NPL and suspending mandatory reclassification of customers that are non performing with other banks but performing with Supervielle.
As of March 31, 2020 collateralized non-performing commercial loans were 61% of total, up from a 58% as of December 31, 2019 and a 20% as of June 30, 2019.
The totalNPL ratioincreased by 140 bps YoY but declined 70 bps QoQ to 6.7% in 1Q20.
QoQ NPL performance was mainly due to the 80 bps decrease in Personal and Business Segment NPL and 720 bps decrease in Consumer Finance NPL, benefitting from the abovementioned Central Bank regulatory easing on debtor classifications, while Corporate Segment NPL remained stable.
YoY NPL performance mas explained by a 20 bps increase in Personal and Business Segment NPL and a 670 bps increase in Corporate Segment NPL, while Consumer Finance NPL declined by 1,100 bps. Personal and Business Segment and Consumer Finance Segment NPLs benefitted from the regulatory easing on debtor classification in 1Q20, but Consumer Finance Segment NPL decline was mostly explained by the improvement in asset quality reflecting the measures taken by the Company since 1Q18 to enhance asset quality following the peaks observed in 2Q18. These measures included tightening of credit scoring standards, slower origination and changes in the collection process in the consumer finance segment.

In 1Q20, banks and unions agreed payment of fixed sums of money for all employees that on average followed inflation.
Personnel expenses amounted to AR$3.6 billion in 1Q20, decreasing 0.7% YoY and 16.3% QoQ. Excluding the impact of IFRS rule IAS 29, personnel expenses would have increased 49.3% YoY and would have decreased 9.5% QoQ.
The YoY performance inpersonnel expenses was mainly explained by salary increases that performed in line with YoY inflation levels both at the bank level and other subsidiaries, partially offset by a 2.8% reduction in the employee base resulting from the streamlining of operations implemented between 2018 and 2019.
In 1Q20, personnel expenses included the abovementioned fixed amounts salary increases in the quarter together with the full impact in 1Q20 of the salary increases agreed upon in previous quarter. Nevertheless, Personnel expenses decreased 16.3% in 1Q20 as in previous quarter had been recorded the abovementioned non-recurring severance and early retirement charges.
33
The employee base at the close of 1Q20 was 5,055, increasing 0.7% QoQ, or by 36 employees. The bank’s employee base decreased by 11 employees, while the Consumer Finance Segment and InvertirOnline increased their staff by 24 and 11 employees respectively.
Administrative expensesdecreased 7.4% YoY to AR$1.8 billion and 12.8% QoQ. Excluding the impact of IFRS rule IAS 29, administrative expenses would have increased 38.4% YoY and would have decreased 5.2%QoQ.
The YoY performance was mainly driven by the following decreases:
· | 24.5% or AR$ 63.0 million in Other professional fees, |
· | 19.3% or AR$ 27.5 million in Advertising & Publicity, and |
· | 12.8% or AR$53.7 million in taxes. |
These effects were partially offset by a 2.3%, or AR$25.3 million increase, in other expenses mainly due to maintenance and repair expenses and armored transportation services costs.
The QoQ decrease was mainly driven by a 8.1% or AR$97.5 million decrease in other expenses mainly due to maintenance and repair expenses and armored transportation services costs, a 30.5% or AR$85.2 million decrease in other professional fees, a 7.4% or AR$29.4 million decrease in taxes and a 19.3% or AR$23.0 million decrease in adevertising and publicity.
D&A amounted to AR$451.9 million in 1Q20 increasing 9.9% YoY but decreasing 20.5% QoQ. The YoY increase is explained by higher amortizations as a result of properties revaluation and intangible assets from the two company acquisitions completed in 2018.

Other Expenses includes both turnover tax on all interest income, financial income and fees, and in 4Q19 included a AR$560 million provision to execute several strategic initiatives in different business segments.
Other Comprehensive Income, net of tax
During 1Q20, Other Comprehensive Loss, net of tax amounted to AR$48.2 million, reflecting the impact of inflation on the results of securities classified as “Available for sale”. According to Central Bank regulation, results from securities which are classified as “Available for sale”, the Other Comprehemsive Income shall include its respective result from the changes in the purchasing power of the currency.
As per the tax reform passed by Congress in December 2017 and the amendment to Income Tax Law No. 20,628 (the “Income Tax Law”) passed in December 2019, the corporate tax rate declined to 30% from 35% starting in fiscal year 2018, and will further decline to 25% in fiscal year 2022, while a withholding tax on dividends was created with a rate of 7% since 2018 and 13% commencing fiscal year 2022. In addition, through the adoption of IFRS effective January 1, 2018, the Company began to recognize deferred tax assets and liabilities.
34
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 widely exceeded 30%. Therefore, the income tax provision since 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 return purposes, one sixth (1/6) of the inflation losses that arose in the 2019 fiscal year were deductible in 2019, while the remaining five sixths (5/6) will be deductible in each of the subsequent 5 years, commencing 2020. Accordingly, one sixth (1/6) of the inflation losses reduced the 2019 income tax provision, while the other five sixths (5/6) create a deferred tax asset. Regarding 2020, one sixth (1/6) of the inflation losses arising in the 2020 fiscal year will be deductible in 2020, while the remaining five sixths (5/6) will be deductible in each of the subsequent 5 years. Accordingly, one sixth (1/6) of the inflation losses reduce the current income tax provision, while the other five sixths (5/6) create a deferred tax asset.
In 1Q20, Income tax charge amounted to AR$343.3 million compared to a AR$723.1 million in 1Q19, and a gain of AR$168.6 million in 4Q19.

With the aim at implementing a strategic view focused on individual customers and SMEs, which demand and value close -through branches- and digital service models, certain business areas of Banco Supervielle were redefined, such as the Retail Banking area which became the new Personal and Business Banking area, and the Corporate Banking area. On January 1, 2020, the SMEs customers and loan portfolio were transferred from the Corporate Banking division to the Personal and Business Banking Division.
Since January 1, 2020, the Bank customers are served as follows:
§ | Personal & Business banking segment: |
§ | Small businesses, individuals and businesses with annual sales up to AR$100 million |
§ | “SMEs”, companies with annual sales over AR$100 million and below AR$700 million |
§ | Corporate banking Segment: |
§ | Middle-market, companies with annual sales over AR$700 million and below AR$2.5 billion |
§ | Large corporates, companies with annual sales over AR$2.5 billion |
The charts below show the evolution of the loan book over the past five quarters broken down by segment.

As of March 31, 2020, 45% of the total commercial loan portfolio was collateralized, while 61% of the commercial non-performing loans portfolio was collateralized (compared to 58% as of Decmeber 31, 2019 and 20% as of June 30, 2019).

Regarding Personal and Business Portfolio, loans to payroll and pension clients as of March 31, 2020, represented 67.7% of the total loan portfolio to individuals.
The totalNPL ratio increased by 140 bps YoY but declined 70 bps QoQ to 6.7% in 1Q20.
39
YoY NPL performance mas explained by a 20 bps increase in Personal and Business Segment NPL and a 670 bps increase in Corporate Segment NPL, while Consumer Finance NPL declined by 1,100 bps. Personal and Business Segment and Consumer Finance Segment NPLs benefitted from the Central Bank regulatory temporary easing amid the Covid-19 pandemic on debtor classifications, adding a 60 days grace period before a loan is classified as NPL and suspending mandatory reclassification of customers that are non performing with other banks but performing with Supervielle. Notwithstanding, Consumer Finance Segment NPL decline was mostly explained by the improvement in asset quality reflecting the measures taken by the Company since 1Q18 to enhance asset quality following the peaks observed in 2Q18. These measures included tightening of credit scoring standards, slower origination and changes in the collection process in the consumer finance segment.
QoQ NPL performance was mainly due to the 80 bps decrease in Personal and Business Segment NPL and the 720 bps decrease in Consumer Finance NPL, benefitting from the abovementioned Central Bank regulatory easing on debtor classifications, while Corporate Segment NPL remained stable.
TheCoverage ratio increased to 99.6% from 83.0% in 4Q19, due to increased loan losses provisions in the quarter reflecting expected losses models and benefitting from the Central Bank regulatory easing on debtor classifications.
As of March 31, 2020 collateralized non-performing commercial loans were 61% of total, up from a 58% as of December 31, 2019 and a 20% as of June 30, 2019.
Cost of Risk was 6.8% in 1Q20 compared to 9.8% in 1Q19 and 5.0% in 4Q19. 4Q19 Cost of Risk benefitted from an initial deduction of AR$263 million LLP regarding the IFRS9 implementation. 1Q19 Cost of Risk was penalized by a commercial delinquent loan that was fully provisioned in that quarter.
Cost of risk, net, which is equivalent to loan loss provisions net of recovered charged-off loans and reversed allowances, was 5.4% in 1Q20, compared to 9.3% in 1Q19 and 4.4% in 4Q19.

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, although in recent months they have been peaking up again.

Total funding, including deposits, other sources of funding such as financing from other financial institutions and negotiable obligations, as well as shareholders’ equity, decreased 19.8% YoY but increased 22.4% QoQ. QoQ performance is explained due to the 41.5% increase in deposits compared to 4Q19 where the Company had deleveraged its balance sheet, sharply reducing institutional funding. In 1Q20, institutional funding and core deposits increased 330% and 15% respectively. Other sources of funding decreased 36.4% YoY and 10.7% QoQ, while Shareholders equity declined 6.4% YoY and increased 1.6% QoQ.
AR$ denominated funding decreased 7.3% YoY and increased 45.9% QoQ. QoQ increase reflects the deposits growth with Wholesale & institutional customers tu fund higher holdings od Leliqs, and the 14.8% increase in AR$ core franchise deposits.

On June 28, 2019, the Central Bank ruled, through Communication “A” 6723, effective on January 1, 2020, that Group “A” financial institutions which are controlled by non-financial institutions (as in our case in relation with the Bank) shall comply with the Minimum Capital requirements, the Major Exposure to Credit Risk regulations, the Liquidity Coverage Ratio and the Net Stable Funding Ratio on a consolidated basis comprising the non-financial holding and all its subsidiaries (excluding insurance companies and non-financial subsidiaries).
On March 19, 2020, the Central Bank ruled, through Communication “A” 6938, establishing that group A financial institutions are allowed to consider as Tier 1 capital (COn1), when calculating minimum capital requirements, the positive difference between the accounting provision, calculated in accordance with point 5.5. of IFRS 9, and the regulatory provision, calculated in accordance with the standards on minimum loan loss provisions required, or the accounting provision as of November 30, 2019, the higher of both, that is, when the provision under IFRS is greater than the regulatory (or accounting as of that date).
TheCommon Equity Tier 1 Ratio as of March 31, 2020, was 13.3%, compared to the 11.3% reported as of December 31, 2019 and 11.9% reported as of March 31, 2019.
The QoQ increase reflects initial IAS29 adjustment on non monetary assets, and the above mentioned Central Bank regulatory easing on provisions amid the Covid-19 pandemic that allows banks to consider as Tier 1 Common Equity, the difference between expected loss provisions recorded following IFRS9, and provisions recorded as of November 30, 2019 under the previous accounting framework.
Supervielle’s Tier1 ratio coincides with CET1 ratio.
As of March 31, 2020, Banco Supervielle’s consolidated financial position showed a solvency level with an integrated capital of AR$18.6 billion, exceeding total capital requirements by AR$7.5 billion.

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.
Amid the Covid-19 pandemic outbreak, the Central Bank eased minimum cash reserve requirements by increasing the amount of deductions allowed to reduce reserve requirements.

New most relevant deductions include:
(1) | a 40% of the amount total loans granted by the bank (balances) to MiPyMES at interest rates of 24% or below; |
(2) | a 60% of the total financing granted to eligible customers, at 0% interest rates; |

(4) | Amounts of cash withdrawals made through the bank’s ATMs |
More recently, the Central Bank ruled that 100% of cash reserve requirement corresponding to time deposits can be set up with Leliqs.
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 regulated through Communication “A” 6719, and is applicable for the months of July and August, and December 2019 and January 2020.

The Ongoing COVID-19 Pandemic
In response to the COVID-19 pandemic, countries around the world, including Argentina, have adopted extraordinary measures to contain the spread of the virus, including imposing travel restrictions and closing borders, requiring closures of non-essential businesses, issuing stay at home orders and similar actions.
The Argentine government has adopted multiple measures in response to the COVID-19 pandemic, including a nationwide mandatory early lockdown and shut down of non essential businesses that began on March 19, 2020 and has been extended several times, most recently through June 7, 2020.
At the same time, in order to mitigate the economic impact of the COVID-19 pandemic and measures taken to contain the virus, the Argentine government has adopted social aid, monetary and fiscal measures, including the following:
• Closure of bank branches. On March 20, 2020, the Central Bank determined that bank branches in Argentina should remain closed. From April 3 until April 10, 2020, branches were allowed to open with limited hours, only for the attention of beneficiaries of pension plans and certain retirement benefits and beneficiaries of aid programs funded by the ANSES. During this period, the rest of the banking activities were performed only through digital means. Beginning on April 13, 2020, financial entities have been allowed to reopen only for a limited number of services, and only by prior appointment, with teller services initially restricted to pensioners and social plan beneficiaries, provided that certain health and security requirements are complied with. Additionally, beginning on April 20, 2020, the Central Bank has allowed the provision of teller services exclusively for deposits in, and withdrawals from, foreign currency accounts.
• Postponement of loan payments. The Central Bank postponed payments on loans maturing during the national lockdown period, and suspended the accrual of punitive interests onloans with maturity between April 1 and June 30, 2020.
• ATM fees. The Central Bank determined that, until June 30, 2020, any operation effected through ATMs will not be subject to any charges or fees.
• Mortgage loan installments and mortgage foreclosures. The government froze the monthly installments of mortgage loans over properties designated as the borrower’s only and permanent residence and prohibited mortgage foreclosures, until September 30, 2020. The debit balance resulting from the freezing of the installment increases may be refinanced in up to nine consecutive monthly installments, upon request by the borrower.
• Credit card payments. The Central Bank determined that the unpaid balances of credit card financings due between April 13 and April 30, 2020 should be automatically refinanced in nine equal consecutive monthly installments beginning after a 3-month grace period. Interest rates on such unpaid balances may not exceed an annual nominal rate of 43%.
• Prohibition of bank account closures. The government prohibited the closure and disabling of bank accounts and the imposition of penalties until April 30, 2020 which was then extended.
• Time deposits minimum rate. The Central Bank ruled that all non-adjustable time deposits under Ps.4 million made by individuals as of April 20, 2020 will have a minimum interest rate equivalent to the 70% of the average LELIQ’s tendering during the week prior to the date in which the deposit was made. Later on, this measure was extended to all time deposits.
• Family emergency income and extraordinary subsidies. The government established (i) a stipend of Ps.10,000, for the month of April 2020, for people who are unemployed or working informally, and self-employed workers who are not currently generating or receiving other income; and (ii) an extraordinary subsidy of Ps.3.000, for the month of April 2020, for beneficiaries of pension schemes and certain retirement benefits.
57
• Prohibition of dismissals and suspensions. The government prohibited dismissals of employees until May 30, 2020, and this prohibition was extended for an additional period.
• Labor market emergency assistance program. The government created a fund of specific application within the FOGAR (acronym in Spanish for Fondo de Garantías Argentino), with the aim of backing financings provided to SMEs by financial entities in order to pay salaries.
• Additionally, some of the government measures are aimed at encouraging bank lending, such as:
· | Limitations on holding Central Bank notes. Simultaneously with the creation of the fund within the FOGAR, the Central Bank set limitations on banks’ holdings of notes from the Central Bank (LELIQ), in order to make liquidity available and encourage the provision of credit lines to SMEs. |
· | Reserve requirements. The Central Bank established that the facilities granted at a preferential rate (not more than 24% per year) within the framework of Communication “A” 6937 to SMEs and households may be deducted from reserve requirements, considering 130% of the amount when the proceeds are for the payment of salaries and the granting entity is the agent of payment of those salaries. |
· | Debtor Classifications: The Central Bank established new rules regarding the criteria for debtor classification and provisioning until September 30, 2020. These rules provide an additional 60 days period of non-payment before a loan is required to be classified as non-performing, and include all financings to commercial portfolio clients and loans granted for consumption or housing purposes. At the same time, the Central Bank ruled the suspension of the mandatory reclassification of debtors who are delinquent in other banks. |
In addition, by means of Communication “A” 6939, the Central Bank suspended, until June 30, 2020, the distribution of dividends by financial entities.
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.
58
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 is applied to the Company’s financial statements for the fiscal year starting January 1, 2020.
Adoption of IFRS 9 – Impairment of financial assets
Pursuant to Communication “A” 6430 issued on January 12, 2018, provisions on Financial Assets Impairment included in paragraph 5.5 of IFRS 9 as from fiscal years starting on January 1, 2020 shall be started.
Through Communications “A” 6778 and 6847 issued on September 5 and December 27, 2019, respectively, the Central Bank introduced a progressive adoption of the impairment model for IFRS 9 in a 5-year period for Group B entities, where Cordial Compañia Financiera (CCF), Supervielle’s consumer finance company, is included. According to this model, the impact on the balance sheet for adopting IFRS 9 (i.e. the difference between loan loss reserves recorded as of December 31, 2019 and those required by the expected losses model) will be recognized in 5 years, recording 5% of such difference in each quarter on a cumulative basis starting March 31, 2020. More recently, amid the Covid-19 outbreak, the Central Bank postponed until 2021 the application of the expected credit losses criteria for Group B entities. Therefore, Cordial Compañia Financiera continues under the under the previous accounting framework of minimum loan loss provisions.
In addition, the Central Bank established a temporary exclusion from the impairment model of IFRS 9 for government-issued debt securities.
a) | Financial instruments presentation |
For the purposes of estimating ECL, and in accordance with its internal policies, the Company classifies its financial instruments (financial assets, loan commitments and guarantees) measured at amortized cost or fair value through other comprehensive income in one of the following categories:
- | Normal Risk ("Stage 1"): includes all instruments have not experienced a significant increase in credit risk since initial recognition and is not purchased or originated credit impaired. |
- | Normal risk under watchlist ("Stage 2"): includes all instruments that, have experienced significant increases in credit risk since initial recognition but are not yet deemed credit-impaired. |
- | Doubtful Risk (“Stage 3"): includes financial instruments, overdue or not, which are considered to be credit impaired. Likewise, loan commitmennts or financial guarantees whose payment is probable and their recovery doubtful are considered to be in Stage 3. |
As a rule, the expected credit loss (“ECL”) is estimated as the difference between the contractual cash flows to be recovered and the expected cash flows discounted using the original effective interest rate. In the case of purchased or originated credit-impaired assets, this difference is discounted using the effective interest rate adjusted by credit rating.
Depending on the abovementioned classification of financial instruments, the expected credit losses may be over 12 months or during the life of the financial instrument:
- | 12-month expected credit losses: arising from the potential default events, as defined in the following sections that are estimated to be likely to occur within the 12 months following the reporting date. These losses will be associated with financial assets classified in Stage 1. |
- | Lifetime Expected credit losses are those arising from the potential default events that are likely to occur throughout the life of the financial instruments. These losses are associated with financial assets classified in Stage 2 or Stage 3. |
With the purpose of estimating the expected life of the financial instrument all the contractual terms have been taken into account (e.g. duration, purchase options, etc.), for most financial instruments the contractual period (including extension options) is the maximum period considered to measure expected credit losses. In the case of revolving credit facilities (e.g.: credit cards), the expected life is estimated through quantitative analyses to determine the period during which the entity is exposed to credit risk, taking into account the effectiveness of management procedures that mitigate such exposure (e.g. the ability to unilaterally cancel such financial instruments, etc.).
59
b) | Significant increase in credit risk |
Supervielle considers a financial instrument to have experienced a significant increase in credit risk when any of the following conditions exist:
Personal and Business Banking
· | Portfolios between 31 and 90 days past due |
· | Portfolios whose classification under Argentine Central Bank regulation is higher than 1 (except for Senior Citizens Portfolio) |
· | Score of behavior less than cut off |
Corporate Banking
· | Portfolios whose classification under Argentine Central Bank regulation is higher than 1 (except Senior Citizens) |
· | Credit Ratings C (Probability of default higher than 30%) |
c) | Impairment valuation assessment |
The impairment model in IFRS 9 applies to financial assets measured at amortized cost, debt instruments at fair value through other comprehensive income, lease receivables and loan commitments and financial guarantees that are not measured at fair value.
ECL represents the best estimation of the financial assets´ expected credit losses at the balance sheet date, assessed both individually and collectively.
- | Individually: Supervielle individually assesses impairment on those financial instruments that are considered to be significant and with sufficient information to make such an estimate |
The individually assessed impairment estimate is equal to the difference between the gross carrying amount of the financial instrument and the estimated value of the expected cash flows discounted using the original effective interest rate. The estimate of these cash flows takes into account all available information on the financial asset and the guarantees associated with that asset.
- | Collectively: Supervielle also assesses impairment collectively in cases where they are not assessed on an individual basis. This includes, for example, loans to individuals, sole proprietors or businesses in Personal and Business Banking subject to a standarized risk management. |
For expected credit loss provisions modelled on a collective basis, the Company has developed internal models. The grouping of exposures is preformed on the basis of shared characteristics, such that risk exposures within group are homogeneous. In performing the grouping there must be sufficient information for the group to be statistically reliable.
The Company has identified three groupings: Personal and Business Banking, Corporate Banking and Consumer Finance. At this stage, Cordial Compañia Financiera, Supervielle’s main Consumer Finance company, is not required to implement IFRS9 until 2021.
60
Amongst the two segments that apply IFRS 9, Supervielle estimates parameters in a more granular way based on the shared risk characteristics. Below are detailed the groupings by shared risk characteristics:
Group | Parameter | Grouping |
Personal and Business Banking | Probability of Default | Personal loans (1) |
Credit card loans (1) | ||
Overdrafts | ||
Documents | ||
Mortgage loans and leasing | ||
Refinancing | ||
Other financings | ||
Loss Given Default | Personal loans | |
Credit card loans | ||
Overdrafts | ||
Mortgage loans and leasing | ||
Refinancing | ||
Other financings | ||
Corporate Banking | Probability of Default (2) | Small companies |
Medium companies | ||
Big companies | ||
Financial Area | ||
Loss Given Default | Overdrafts | |
Documents | ||
Leasing | ||
Unsecured loans | ||
Other financings | ||
Other receivables from financial transactions |
(1) | For credit cards and personal loans, the breakdown per segment was added because there was enough materiality. The segments are: senior citizens, high income open market, high income payroll, non- high income open market, non-high income payroll, bussiness in Personal and Business Banking, former senior citizens and former payroll |
(2) | Groups made to calculate the probability of default are carried out by company size, occasionally classified by economic activity in Stage 1. For Stage 2 and Stage 3, the Probability of default is calculated including all segments of Corporate Banking due to the lack of materiality to perform a larger group. |
The credit risk characteristics used to group the instruments are, among others: type of instrument, debtor's sector of activity, geographical area of activity, type of guarantee, aging of past due balances and any other factor relevant to estimating the future cash flows.
Supervielle performs backtesting analysis to evaluate the reasonableness of the collective models.
Expected credit loss impairment allowance in the financial statements reflects a range of possible outcomes, calculated on a probability weighted basis based on three possible future scenarios, always taking into account the time value of money, as well as all available and relevant information on past events, current conditions and forecasts of the evolution of macroeconomic factors that are considered to be relevant for the estimation of this amount (for example: GDP (Gross Domestic Product), Interest Rate, unemployment rate, etc.).
For the estimation of the parameters used in the determination of the allowance for loan losses (EAD - Exposure at Default, PD -Probability of Default, LGD -Loss Given Default), Supervielle based the calculation in its experience in developing internal models for the estimation of parameters both in the regulatory area and for management purposes, adapting the development of the impairment models under IFRS 9.
- | Exposure at default: it is based on the amounts Supervielle expects to be owed at the time of default, over the next 12 months or over the remaining life of the instrument. For example, for revolving credit facilities, Supervielle includes the current draw down balance plus any further amount that it is expected to be drawn up to the contractual limit by the time of default. |
- | Probability of default: it represents the likelihood of a borrower defaulting on its financial obligation over the next 12 months or over the remaining life of the instrument depending on the stage. |
- | Loss given default: represents the Company´s expectation of the extent of loss on a defaulted exposure. LGD varies by type of counterparty, seniority of claim, availability of collateral or other type of credit support. LGD is expressed as a percentage per unit of exposure at the time of default. |
The definition of default implemented by the Company for the purpose of calculating ECL is based on the requirements of IFRS 9, which considers that a financial asset is in "default" when a payment is more than 90 days past due or if the Company considers the payment will not be reimbursed.
For the estimation of the expected credit losses, prospective information is taken into account.
61
As of January 1, 2020 and March 31, 2020, for all portfolios, the Company concluded that three scenarios appropriately captured non-linearities. Scenario weights are determined by a combination of statistical analysis and expert opinion, considering the range of possible outcomes of which each chosen scenario is representative. The evaluation of significant increases in credit risk is carried out using the Probability of Default (PD) Lifetime in the base scenario and the other scenarios, multiplied by the weight associated with each scenario, together with qualitative and backstop indicators. This determines whether the financial instrument is in Stage 1, Stage 2, or Stage 3, and therefore whether to register 12-month PCE or Lifetime. As with any economic forecast, projections and probabilities of occurrence are subject to a high degree of inherent uncertainty, and therefore actual results may be significantly different than projected. The Company considers that these forecasts represent its best estimate of the possible results and has analyzed the non-linear and asymmetric impacts within the different Bank portfolios to establish that the chosen scenarios are representative of the range of possible scenarios.
The most significant assumptions used to estimate the PCE as of March 31, 2020 are presented below:
Parameter | Segment | Macroeconomic variable | Optimistic Scenario | Base scenario | Pessimistic scenario |
Probability of Default | Personal and Business Banking | Real Wage | (3.23)% | (3.64)% | (3.64)% |
Corporate | Badlar | 50.71% | 50.67% | 33.59% | |
Consumer Finance | Monthly Economic Activiy Estimator | 137.26 | 136.88 | 132.93 |
The weights assigned to each scenario as of March 31, 2020 are presented below:
Base scenario | 80% |
Optimistic Scenario | 10% |
Pessimistic scenario | 10% |
Financial Agency Agreement of the Province of San Luis
In January 2019, the government of the Province of San Luis released the terms and conditions of the auction to be held by the Province for the new financial agency agreement. Only two proposals were presented on March 15, 2019. On December 6, 2019, the provincial government issued the Decree No. 8,589 that resolved to close the auction process without awarding the financial agency agreement. Supervielle will continue to render services as Financial Agent until the Province of San Luis names a new Financial Agent.
Banco Supervielle Credit Rating
Fitch has reviewed the ratings of Argentine financial institutions (FIs) following the downgrade of the sovereign's long-term following the government's unilateral extension of repayment on certain debt obligations. As a result, on October 1, 2019 Fitch Ratings reviewed Banco Supervielle S.A.'s (Supervielle) Long-Term Foreign and Local Currency Issuer Default Ratings (IDRs) at 'CC'. On February 5, 2020, Fitch has maintained this rating.
Banco Supervielle Credit Rating
April 7, 2020, Moodys outlook changed to negative from under review and downgraded the foreign currency debt ratings to Ca, driven by the lowering of Argentina's country ceiling for foreign currency deposits to Ca, from Caa2, which in turn derives from the sovereign debt downgrade to Ca. As a result, the ratings and assessments assigned to Supervielle were downgraded to Ca from Caa2. Supervielle's Baseline Credit Assessment (BCA) was downgraded to Ca from Caa2, and its deposit and debt ratings were downgraded to Ca fromCaa2, while its national scale deposit ratings were downgraded to Ca.ar from B2.ar.
62
Banco Supervielle Credit Rating
Fix Scr (Argentine affiliate of Fitch Group) reviewed a local long term national scale rating for Banco Supervielle as AA- (Arg), with a negative outlook in line with the outlook of the Argentine Financial System. This rating was reviewed on October 11, 2019 and confirmed on April 29, 2020.
Voluntary Bond Swap of Lecaps
On January 20, 2020, the Ministry of Economy and the Secretary of Finance offered a voluntary bond swap of the Treasury capitalizing notes in pesos (LECAPs) with original maturity on August 30th 2019, September 13th 2019, October 11th 2019, November 25th 2019 and February 28th 2020, which had been reprofiled through Decree 596 in August 2019. This swap included the exchange of these notes for BADLAR adjusted notes (LEBADs), with maturities on September 18, 2020 and December 22, 2020.
Voluntary Swap of Letes
In May, 2020, the Bank participated in the voluntary swap launched by the Ministry of Economy of US$ Treasury Bills (LETES) for Treasury Bonds in Pesos adjustable by CER (BONCER), with a nominal value of 53,481,301, being awarded 100%. After the aforementioned Swap, the Bank does not hold Letes.
Special treatment for debt instruments of the Non-Financial Public Sector
On December 31, 2019, the Central Bank, through Communication "A" 6847 provided a special treatment for debt instruments of the Non-Financial Public Sector, which will be effective January 1, 2020. The aforementioned special treatment implies temporarily excluding the scope of application of IFRS 9 to non-financial public sector debt instruments.
Also effective January 1, 2020, financial institutions were allowed to re-categorize the instruments corresponding to the non-financial public sector that are measured at Fair value through profit or loss and at Fair value through other comprehensive income to the Amortized cost criteria, using as incorporation value the book value at that date. With respect to the instruments for which this option has been exercised, in case the book value is above its fair value, the accrual of interest will be interrupted. The Company decided to re-categorized the Letes held following this regulation, until the moment the Letes were swaped for BONCER.
Minimum Cash Reserve Requirements
Amid the Covid-19 pandemic outbreak, the Central Bank eased minimum cash reserve requirements by increasing the amount of deductions allowed to reduce reserve requirements.
New most relevant deductions include:
(1) | a 40% of the amount total loans granted by the bank (balances) to MiPyMES at interest rates of 24% or below; |
(2) | a 60% of the total financing granted to eligible customers, at 0% interest rates; |
(3) | a 35% of the aggregate financings in Pesos granted by the bank under the “Ahora 12” program, with a limit of 6% over the items in Pesos subject to the Central Bank Rules of Minimum Cash. |
(4) | Amounts of cash withdrawals made through the bank’s ATMs |
More recently, the Central Bank ruled that 100% of cash reserve requirement corresponding to time deposits can be set up with Leliqs.
63
