The impact of the sale, which reflects the
evolution of foreign exchange rates since the announcement of the
disposal on April 11, 2022, will be accounted for in Q2 22 and
includes:
- A residual
impact of around -7 basis points on the capital ratio. On March 31,
2022, the Group’s CET 1 ratio was 12.9%, i.e. around 370 basis
points above the regulatory requirement;
- A net
loss on the Group’s income statement of around 3.2 billion
euros(2).
The Group thus exits Russia(3) in an effective
and orderly manner, ensuring continuity for its employees and
clients.
(1) The actual transfer of shares of insurance
subsidiaries will occur in the coming days.
(2) Based on non-audited financial data as of
April 30, 2022 and a EUR/RUB exchange rate of 68.8 to be compared
to a reference rate of 85 as of 31.12.2021 and of 92 for the press
release published on April 11, 2022. This loss, before tax effect,
will be accounted for mainly as “net income/expense on other
assets”.(3) ALD Automotive OOO, which operates in
Russia and through its branches in Kazakhstan, and ALD Belarus LLC
no longer concludes any new commercial transactions.
