Banking, agreements in place to sell subsidiaries
in Congo, Equatorial Guinea, Mauritania and Chad, and opening of
strategic review on the Tunisian subsidiary
Slawomir Krupa, the Group’s Chief
Executive Officer, commented:“During the quarter,
commercial activity was good in most businesses. Group revenues
contracted due to the decline in the net interest margin in France
and in market activities’ revenues against a backdrop of gradual
normalisation after some particularly favourable years. Operating
expenses were contained despite persistent inflationary trends. The
cost of risk was very low, reflecting the quality of our
origination and our loan portfolio. The Group shows a solid balance
sheet with a CET 1 ratio at 13.1% and a robust liquidity profile.
In addition, we pursued the execution of our ongoing strategic
projects, notably the closing of the LeasePlan acquisition by ALD.
The new management team has been fully operational since taking
office on 24 May this year and is working to prepare the next
chapter of the Group’s strategy. I will have the pleasure of
presenting the new strategic and financial roadmap on 18 September
at our Capital Markets Day to be held in London.”

Societe Generale’s Board of Directors, which met
on 2 August 2023 under the chairmanship of Lorenzo Bini Smaghi,
examined the Societe Generale Group’s results for Q2 23 and for the
first half of 2023.
The various restatements enabling the transition
from underlying data to published data are presented in the
Methodology notes in Section 9.5.
Net banking
income
Net banking income decreased in Q2 23 by
-8.9%
(-10.3%*) vs. Q2 22,
largely due to the decline in the net interest margin in French
Retail Banking, a less conducive market environment in Global
Banking and Investor Solutions activities and the booking of
one-off items under Corporate Centre.
French Retail Banking revenues fell by -13.6%
vs. Q2 22 owing mainly to the decrease in the net interest margin,
despite solid momentum in fees, a record performance from Private
Banking and a strong increase in Boursorama’s revenues.
Revenues in International Retail Banking &
Financial Services grew by +6.3% (+0.9%*) vs. Q2 22, with a +3.3%*
increase in revenues vs. Q2 22 in International Retail Banking, a
strong performance by Financial Services that was driven by ALD
revenues, up +18.7% vs. Q2 22 following the integration of
LeasePlan, and by insurance revenues, which rose by +3.1%* vs. Q2
22.
Global Banking & Investor Services
registered revenues down -7.3% in Q2 23 relative to Q2 22 amid a
less favourable market environment. Global Markets & Investor
Services recorded solid revenues but which were down in comparison
to a very strong Q2 22 performance (-12.7%) owing to less conducive
market conditions, notably in Fixed Income and Currencies (lower
interest rate volatility and slower client activity), while
Financing and Advisory continued to post revenue growth,
registering an increase of +4.0% vs. Q2 22, driven by a solid
performance in the securitisation, investment banking and cash
management activities.
Over the first half of 2023,
net banking income fell by -7.1% vs. H1 22 (-5.3% on an underlying
basis).
Operating
expenses
On a reported basis, operating expenses
came to EUR 4,441 million in Q2
23, up
+2.7%
vs. Q2 22. It includes LeasePlan operating expenses for
EUR 111 million following its consolidation from 22 May 2023.
On an underlying basis, they totalled EUR
4,461 million (adjusted
for IFRIC 21 linearisation, transformation charges and one-off
expenses), i.e. stable relative to Q2 22.
One-off expenses totalled EUR 35 million and
included litigation payments.
Over the first half, operating
expenses came to EUR 9,498 million, up +0.4% vs. H1 22 (+0.7% on an
underlying basis).
Excluding the Single Resolution Fund
contribution, the underlying cost-to-income ratio(2) came to 65.8%
in Q2 23.
Cost of
risk
The cost of risk for
Q2 23
was low at
12 basis points, i.e.
EUR 166 million. It breaks down into a provision on non-performing
loans of EUR 204 million (~14 basis points) and a reversal on
performing loans for EUR -38 million (~-3 basis points).
At end-June 2023, the Group’s provisions on
performing loans amounted to EUR 3,713 million, down EUR -56
million relative to 31 December 2022.
The non-performing loans ratio amounted to
2.9%(2) at 30 June 2023. The gross coverage ratio on doubtful loans
for the Group stood at 46%(3) at 30 June 2023.
Furthermore, the disposal by ALD in April 2023
of its activities in Russia had a limited EUR -79 million impact
that was allocated under net losses from other assets in Corporate
Centre. The Group retained a residual exposure of around EUR 15
million in Russia relating to the integration of LeasePlan
activities by ALD.
Furthermore, the Group’s Exposure at Default
(EAD) on the Russian offshore portfolio was EUR 1.6 billion at 30
June 2023, i.e. a decrease of -50% since 31 December 2021. This
exposure is diversified by sector and in the majority of cases
secured by facilities as Pre-Export Finance facilities, facilities
that are guaranteed by an Export Credit Agency or Trade Finance
facilities. The maximum risk exposure on this portfolio is
estimated to be less than EUR 0.5 billion before provision and
total provisions stood at EUR 0.4 billion. The Group’s residual
exposure to Rosbank was extremely limited at less than EUR 0.1
billion.

The Alternative Performance Measures, notably the notions
of net banking income for the pillars, operating expenses, IFRIC 21
adjustment, cost of risk in basis points, ROE, ROTE, RONE, net
assets, tangible net assets, and the amounts serving as a basis for
the different restatements carried out (in particular the
transition from published data to underlying data) are presented in
the methodology notes, as are the principles for the presentation
of prudential ratios. This document contains
forward-looking statements relating to the targets and strategies
of the Societe Generale Group. These forward-looking statements are
based on a series of assumptions, both general and specific, in
particular the application of accounting principles and methods in
accordance with IFRS (International Financial Reporting Standards)
as adopted in the European Union, as well as the application of
existing prudential regulations. These forward-looking statements
have also been developed from scenarios based on a number of
economic assumptions in the context of a given competitive and
regulatory environment. The Group may be unable to: - anticipate
all the risks, uncertainties or other factors likely to affect its
business and to appraise their potential consequences; - evaluate
the extent to which the occurrence of a risk or a combination of
risks could cause actual results to differ materially from those
provided in this document and the related presentation. Therefore,
although Societe Generale believes that these statements are based
on reasonable assumptions, these forward-looking statements are
subject to numerous risks and uncertainties, including matters not
yet known to it or its management or not currently considered
material, and there can be no assurance that anticipated events
will occur or that the objectives set out will actually be
achieved. Important factors that could cause actual results to
differ materially from the results anticipated in the
forward-looking statements include, among others, overall trends in
general economic activity and in Societe Generale’s markets in
particular, regulatory and prudential changes, and the success of
Societe Generale’s strategic, operating and financial initiatives.
More detailed information on the potential risks that could affect
Societe Generale’s financial results can be found in the section
“Risk Factors” in our Universal Registration Document filed with
the French Autorité des Marchés Financiers (which is available on
https://investors.societegenerale.com/en). Investors are advised to
take into account factors of uncertainty and risk likely to impact
the operations of the Group when considering the information
contained in such forward-looking statements. Other than as
required by applicable law, Societe Generale does not undertake any
obligation to update or revise any forward-looking information or
statements. Unless otherwise specified, the sources for the

METHODOLOGY
1 - The financial information
presented for the second
quarter and first half
2023 was examined by the Board of
Directors on 2
August,
2023 and has been prepared in
accordance with IFRS as adopted in the European Union and
applicable at that date. The limited review procedures on the
condensed interim financial statements at 30 June 2023 carried by
the Statutory Auditors are currently underway.
2 - Net banking income
The pillars’ net banking income is defined on
page 41 of Societe Generale’s 2023 Universal Registration Document.
The terms “Revenues” or “Net Banking Income” are used
interchangeably. They provide a normalised measure of each pillar’s
net banking income taking into account the normative capital
mobilised for its activity.
3 - Operating expenses
Operating expenses correspond to the “Operating
Expenses” as presented in notes 5 and 8.2 to the Group’s
consolidated financial statements as at December 31st, 2022. The
term “costs” is also used to refer to Operating Expenses. The
Cost/Income Ratio is defined on page 41 of Societe Generale’s 2023
Universal Registration Document.
4 - IFRIC 21 adjustment
The IFRIC 21 adjustment corrects the result of
the charges recognised in the accounts in their entirety when they
are due (generating event) so as to recognise only the portion
relating to the current quarter, i.e. a quarter of the total. It
consists in smoothing the charge recognised accordingly over the
financial year in order to provide a more economic idea of the
costs actually attributable to the activity over the period
analysed.
The contributions to Single Resolution
Fund
(“SRF”)
are part of IFRIC 21 adjusted charges, they include contributions
to national resolution funds within the EU.
5 – Exceptional items – Transition from
accounting data to underlying data
It may be necessary for the Group to present
underlying indicators in order to facilitate the understanding of
its actual performance. The transition from published data to
underlying data is obtained by restating published data for
exceptional items and the IFRIC 21 adjustment.
Moreover, the Group restates the revenues and
earnings of the French Retail Banking pillar for PEL/CEL provision
allocations or write-backs. This adjustment makes it easier to
identify the revenues and earnings relating to the pillar’s
activity, by excluding the volatile component related to
commitments specific to regulated savings.

6 - Cost of risk in
basis points, coverage ratio for doubtful
outstandings
The cost of risk is defined on pages 42 and 691
of Societe Generale’s 2023 Universal Registration Document. This
indicator makes it possible to assess the level of risk of each of
the pillars as a percentage of balance sheet loan commitments,
including operating leases.

The gross coverage ratio for
doubtful outstandings is calculated as
the ratio of provisions recognised in respect of the credit risk to
gross outstandings identified as in default within the meaning of
the regulations, without taking account of any guarantees provided.
This coverage ratio measures the maximum residual risk associated
with outstandings in default (“doubtful”).
7 - ROE, ROTE, RONE
The notions of ROE (Return on Equity) and ROTE
(Return on Tangible Equity), as well as their calculation
methodology, are specified on page 43 of Societe Generale’s 2023
Universal Registration Document. This measure makes it possible to
assess Societe Generale’s return on equity and return on tangible
equity.
RONE (Return on Normative Equity) determines the
return on average normative equity allocated to the Group’s
businesses, according to the principles presented on page 43 of
Societe Generale’s 2023 Universal Registration Document.
Group net income used for the ratio numerator is
book Group net income adjusted for “interest net of tax payable on
deeply subordinated notes and undated subordinated notes, interest
paid to holders of deeply subordinated notes and undated
subordinated notes, issue premium amortisations” and “unrealised
gains/losses booked under shareholders’ equity, excluding
conversion reserves” (see methodology note No. 9). For ROTE, income
is also restated for goodwill impairment.
Details of the corrections made to book equity
in order to calculate ROE and ROTE for the period are given in the

Earnings Per Share (EPS)
The EPS published by Societe Generale is
calculated according to the rules defined by the IAS 33 standard
(see page 44 of Societe Generale’s 2023 Universal Registration
Document). The corrections made to Group net income in order to
calculate EPS correspond to the restatements carried out for the
calculation of ROE and ROTE. As specified on page 45 of Societe
Generale’s 2023 Universal Registration Document, the Group also
publishes EPS adjusted for the impact of non-economic and
exceptional items presented in methodology note No. 5 (underlying
EPS).The calculation of Earnings Per Share is described in the
following table:

10 - The
Societe Generale Group’s Common Equity
Tier 1 capital is calculated in accordance with applicable
CRR2/CRD5 rules. The phased-in and fully loaded solvency ratios are
presented pro forma for current earnings, net of dividends, for the
current financial year, unless specified otherwise. The leverage
ratio is also calculated according to applicable CRR2/CRD5 rules
including the phased-in following the same rationale as solvency
ratios.
1011 – Funded balance sheet, loan to
deposit ratio
The funded balance sheet is
based on the Group financial statements. It is obtained in two
steps:
- A first step aiming at reclassifying
the items of the financial statements into aggregates allowing for
a more economic reading of the balance sheet. Main
reclassifications:
Insurance: grouping of the accounting items
related to insurance within a single aggregate in both assets and
liabilities.Customer loans: include outstanding loans with
customers (net of provisions and write-downs, including net lease
financing outstanding and transactions at fair value through profit
and loss); excludes financial assets reclassified under loans and
receivables in accordance with the conditions stipulated by IFRS 9
(these positions have been reclassified in their original
lines).Wholesale funding: Includes interbank liabilities and debt
securities issued. Financing transactions have been allocated to
medium/long-term resources and short-term resources based on the
maturity of outstanding, more or less than one
year.Reclassification under customer deposits of the share of
issues placed by French Retail Banking networks (recorded in
medium/long-term financing), and certain transactions carried out
with counterparties equivalent to customer deposits (previously
included in short term financing).Deduction from customer deposits
and reintegration into short-term financing of certain transactions
equivalent to market resources.
- A second step aiming at excluding
the contribution of insurance subsidiaries, and netting
derivatives, repurchase agreements, securities borrowing/lending,
accruals and “due to central banks”.
The Group loan/deposit ratio is
determined as the division of the customer loans by customer
deposits as presented in the funded balance sheet.
NB (1) The sum of values contained in the tables
and analyses may differ slightly from the total reported due to
rounding rules.
(2) All the information on the results for the
period (notably: press release, downloadable data, presentation
slides and supplement) is available on Societe Generale’s website
www.societegenerale.com in the “Investor” section.
10. APPENDIX
3 : PUBLICATION OF NEW QUARTERLY
SERIES
Societe Generale is releasing restated
quarterly statements reflecting the impacts from the merger of
Societe Generale and Credit du Nord in France to create a unique
brand name, SG.
Following the completion of the merger of French
networks in France, the Group proceeded to some non-material
adjustments in its organization with the transfer of Societe des
Banques de Monaco and the premium client base from Credit du Nord
to private banking operations in France and the transfer of
employee savings’ activities operated by Services Epargne
Entreprises(11) (“S2E”) from French networks in France to insurance
activities within International retail banking and financial
services in order to reinforce already existing synergies with
financial savings.
The historical quarterly financial reporting has
been restated in compliance with the following changes in
governance.
This organisational change comprises some
immaterial adjustments to the cost sharing of some activities of
Global Markets and Investor Services and Global Banking and
Advisory.All of the above items have no impact on the performance
of the Group nor on the Corporate Centre.
The series of 2022 and Q1 23 quarterly results have
been adjusted consequently and are available on the Societe
Generale website. (The figures included in this press release
are unaudited.)
