2020 Financial Results & Strategy Update

Sunrise Plan: New Piraeus, Single-Digit NPE Ratio in 12 Months, Profitable & Strong

Sunrise Plan: the New Piraeus Bank

Piraeus Financial Holdings announces today a series of concerted and comprehensive actions to drastically accelerate Piraeus Bank's NPE reduction plan and further enhance its capital position (the "Sunrise Plan"). The plan comprises three pillars:

  • 1. The acceleration of NPE reduction to reach a single-digit NPE ratio in the next 12 months, through the securitization and subsequent de-recognition of NPEs with a total estimated gross book value of up to €19bn (including the previously announced NPE securitizations, namely Projects Phoenix and Vega); moving to the next significant milestone in this accelerated plan, Piraeus Bank submitted today an application for the inclusion of its new c.€7bn Sunrise 1 NPE securitization in the "Hercules" Scheme;

  • 2. A share capital increase of circa €1.0bn of Piraeus Financial Holdings via a non-pre-emptive fully marketed offering, which, along with the non-dilutive capital enhancing actions already completed or under way, will result in a cumulative capital benefit of approximately €2.6bn, including potential Additional Tier 1 issuance of up to €0.6bn;

  • 3. A detailed transformation plan of Piraeus Bank to enhance pre provision income by a combination of top-line strengthening and a reduction in operating costs through efficiency improvements and digitization.

The execution of the aforementioned strategic pillars will enable Piraeus Group to achieve its medium term financial aspirations, namely:

  • Single-digit NPE ratio in the next 12 months and below 3% in the medium term, via ongoing organic and inorganic NPE management, incorporating any COVID-19 related inflows. NPEs are expected to decrease from22.5bn at the end of 2020 to c.3.6bn in the next 12 months and to c.1bn in the medium term;

  • Total capital ratio above 16%, following improved organic capital generation and debt issuance as per MREL compliance strategy;

  • RoATE above 10%, unlocking the underlying business potential post NPE clean-up.

Μanagement Statement

"In 2020 we managed to navigate a number of headwinds, achieving significant milestones that set the foundations of the next day for Piraeus Bank.

Our solid operational progress of 2020 is reflected in the6.3bn new loans,5.1bn new private sector deposits and the defence of our core organic income lines. At the same time, we attained further cost efficiencies thanks to our well rolled-out transformation plan. This progress signifies the potential that Piraeus can realize once the macroeconomic environment recovers.

Today we are taking another major step forward in the de-risking agenda we have been rigorously pursuing over the past years, allowing us to focus on our core strengths and fund the Greek economy.

The Sunrise Plan consists of a series of landmark transactions that will definitively normalize the balance sheet of Piraeus and support an attractive financial outlook, built on sustainable profitable growth.

The7bn Phoenix-Vega transactions, which are expected to culminate in mid-2021 facilitated by HAPS, provide us with the execution capacity to proceed at a higher pace with our NPE clean-up. An incremental12bn NPE reduction is scheduled for the next 12 months that will bring us faster to a single-digit NPE ratio, enabling us to attain a return on tangible equity above 10% in the medium term.

To facilitate this plan, a series of concerted and comprehensive capital enhancing actions with cumulative benefit of approximately €2.6bn are sequenced in the following period, of which c.€1bn via a share capital increase through a non-pre-emptive fully marketed offering. Actions on top of the share capital increase are either completed or well under way, generating approximately1bn of capital: (a)0.4bn gains from our sovereign bond portfolio already booked in Q1.2021, (b) €0.3bn from the sale of our cards merchant acquiring platform and (c)0.3bn capital benefit from synthetic securitizations of select performing loans. For the cards acquiring sale, as well as the first synthetic securitization, both of which comprise inaugural transactions for the Greek market, we are happy to announce today the signing of binding agreements with prominent strategic international players. In addition, we submitted today an application for the inclusion of our new €7bn Sunrise 1 NPE securitization in the "Hercules" Scheme.

From a position of strength and with a legacy-free balance sheet, we are opening the door to a new chapter in the Bank's history. The anticipated support of our shareholders on the planned share capital increase will be a testimony to the prosperous future that lies ahead for Piraeus, and the attractive returns that our Bank will be able to deliver in the coming years."

Sunrise Plan: the New Piraeus Bank

The Board of Directors of Piraeus Financial Holdings has today approved a holistic strategic plan to drastically accelerate its NPE reduction effort and to further enhance Piraeus Bank's capital position through a combination of certain concerted actions (the Sunrise Plan). The Sunrise Plan is expected to significantly de-risk the balance sheet of Piraeus Bank from its legacy non-performing exposures, while preserving a strong capital position and substantially improving Piraeus Bank's financial outlook.

The Sunrise Plan

The Sunrise Plan comprises three conjunct pillars:

  • 1. The acceleration of the NPE reduction plan of Piraeus Bank through the securitization and subsequent de-recognition of NPEs with a total estimated gross book value of up to €19bn

    (including the previously announced NPE securitizations, namely Projects Phoenix and Vega). The incremental NPE securitizations, Projects Sunrise 1 and Sunrise 2 with gross book value of €7bn and €4bn respectively, are envisaged to be executed utilizing the Hellenic Asset Protection Scheme 2 (HAPS2). Piraeus Bank plans to retain the senior notes of approximately €6.5bn from all four

    HAPS transactions and is contemplating to distribute the majority of the mezzanine and junior notes to the shareholders of Piraeus Financial Holdings (subject to customary and regulatory approvals). Additionally, in an effort to complement the balance sheet de-risking, NPE portfolios outside of the HAPS framework, are considered to be sold in 2021. We expect the gross book value of these loans to come up to €1.5bn in 2021. Piraeus Bank is targeting to achieve a single-digit NPE ratio post completion of these disposals, within the next 12 months.

  • 2. A series of capital enhancing actions, with cumulative benefit of approximately €2.6bn:

A share capital increase of Piraeus Financial Holdings via a non-pre-emptive fully marketed offering of around the €1.0bn mark (the Equity Issue). The Equity Issue, along with the rest of the capital enhancing corporate actions, would boost Piraeus Bank's ability to absorb losses stemming from the additional c.€12bn accelerated NPE reduction. The terms of the Equity Issue are expected to be determined by the Board of Directors of Piraeus Financial Holdings (subject to customary and regulatory approvals including HFSF consent);

− Additional Tier 1 issuance of up to €0.6bn by Piraeus Financial Holdings; and

Certain other non-dilutive capital accretive actions, including: (i) profit realization from securities portfolio already completed in Q1.2021; (ii) the carve-out and sale of Piraeus

Bank's cards merchant acquiring platform announced today; and (iii) the purchase of credit protection for select on-balance sheet performing loan portfolios (synthetic securitization), also announced today; and

3.

A robust operational streamlining plan of Piraeus Bank to enhance pre-provision income by a combination of top-line strengthening and a reduction in operating costs through efficiency improvements and digitization. This elevated performance will be further supported by an anticipated strong macroeconomic tailwind.

The Hellenic Financial Stability Fund, as the largest shareholder of Piraeus Financial Holdings, has confirmed their intention to fully support the capital increase. In line with their communication in November 2020, HFSF plans to reduce its participation to a non blocking minority shareholding.

Transaction rationale

The implementation of the Sunrise Plan will allow us to:

  • Drastically accelerate Piraeus Bank's NPE reduction plan and achieve a single-digit NPE ratio in the next 12 months;

  • Strengthen the Group's capital position firmly above regulatory requirements in the short and medium term;

  • Significantly improve the Group's organic capital generation capacity and ability to pursue sustainable profitable growth going forward; and

  • Enhance Piraeus Bank's position as a domestic market leader, fully-equipped to support the recovery of the Greek economy

EGM convocation and expected timeline

In the context of the Sunrise Plan, the Board of Directors of Piraeus Financial Holdings decided today to convene an Extraordinary General Meeting (the EGM) seeking to be granted authorization to approve capital increases, including the Equity Issue. The EGM will be held on 7 April 2021. Subject to shareholder approval, the Equity Issue is envisaged to be launched around mid-April and to be completed by early-May 2021. The Equity Issue is expected to be carried-out via an offering to international institutional investors and a public offer in Greece.

Goldman Sachs Bank Europe SE and UBS Europe SE are acting as financial advisors to the Company in the context of the Equity Issuance.

Piraeus Bank has filed an application for inclusion of the "Sunrise 1"

securitization under the "Hercules" Asset Protection Scheme

Piraeus Financial Holdings is proceeding with the immediate implementation of the new Sunrise 1 non-performing loan securitization transaction announced today, with a total gross book value of c.7bn and comprising mainly denounced loans.

In this context, Piraeus Bank has filed an application seeking inclusion of the Sunrise 1 securitization under the "Hercules" Asset Protection Scheme pursuant to Law 4649/2019.

The application relates to the granting of the Greek State guarantee on Senior Notes with a total gross value of2.4bn.

2020 P&L Highlights: Healthy Trends in All Core Lines

Healthy NII trends

Net Interest Income (NII) in FY.2020 reached €1,486mn, +4% yoy. Funding costs (i.e.

interest expenses) have been particularly supportive -19% yoy, due to the significant containment of deposit costs and the utilization of the ECB TLTRO III facility, which absorbed the increased cost of Tier 2 debt servicing. The €3.9bn and €6.3bn of new loans disbursed in 2019 and 2020 respectively, as well as the increased fixed income holdings, have contributed to the growth in the NII line. ΝΙΜ in FY.2020 stood at 2.2% compared to 2.3% in FY.2019, on the back of a significantly increased asset base.

Stable NFI despite lockdown headwinds

Net Fee and Commission Income (NFI) in FY.2020 stood at €317mn, flat yoy, a resilient performance given the lockdown headwinds during most of the year. Main contributors to this performance were bancassurance, asset management & brokerage and Investment Banking & Financial Advisory. Net fee income over assets stood at the level of 0.5%, stable compared to 2019.

OpEx further down 7% yoy like-for-like

Operating expenses in FY.2020 reached €891mn (-7% yoy) on a like-for-like basis; including one-off items and the fees paid to the NPE servicer, total operating expenses increased by 7% at €1,084mn. The like-for-like cost-to-income ratio stood at 47% vs 53% in 2019. Recurring staff costs declined by 10% yoy as the Bank is reaping the benefits of the carve-out of the NPE servicing platform and the 2019 VES. Administrative costs (including gains from sale of property) increased by 3% yoy at €399mn, as NPE servicer related costs accrued in 2020 for the whole year compared to 3.5 months in 2019.

PPI +16% yoy like-for-like

Like-for-like pre provision income reached €1,001mn in FY.2020 compared to €860mn in 2019, an increase of 16% yoy. In addition, NII plus NFI minus recurring OpEx in 2020 stood at €865mn, 12% higher yoy, demonstrating the strength of the Bank's core franchise.

Higher CoR due to COVID-19 related impairments & clean-up effort

The FY.2020 loan impairment charges stood at €1,104mn from €710mn during 2019. One-off impairments attributed to the COVID-19 pandemic and other impairments booked in the context of the new NPE reduction plan amounted to €695mn in 2020. Underlying cost of risk as a percentage of net loans stood at 1.5% in 2020, compared to 1.7% in 2019. Additionally, in order to capture the uncertainty derived from the COVID-19 pandemic, the Group increased the Stage 2 loans by €0.8bn in Q4.2020.

Bottom line burdened by increased CoR

Pre-tax losses in 2020 stood at a €530mn compared to a profit of €389mn in 2019.

Adjusting for one-off staff restructuring costs and impairments related to COVID-19 and the NPE clean-up preparation, the Group would have booked a pre-tax profit of €312mn from its recurring operating lines, against a recurring pre-tax profit of €74mn in 2019.

Group net results stood at a loss of €668mn, compared to €276mn net profit in 2019.

FY.2020 tax stood at €128mn, mainly attributable to the tax impact of Phoenix and Vega securitizations.

COVID-19 affected customers. The Group actively participates in the execution of financing

programmes of the Greek State through the provision of guarantees and interest rate subsidies.

Within the framework of the sub-program of the Hellenic Development Bank "Guarantee Fund for

COVID-19" aiming to facilitate SMEs and corporates with working capital, Piraeus Bank has been

allocated with €1.6bn. In parallel, in the program sponsored by the Ministry of Development with

a 2-year interest rate subsidy for new financing to medium-sized and small enterprises affected by

the pandemic, the Bank participated for an amount of €0.6bn. In addition, the programme

sponsored by the Greek Ministry of Finance for the support of mortgage loan borrowers ("Gefyra")

has received a total of approximately 160 thousand applications and has entered the

implementation phase. Piraeus Bank applications stand at approximately 40 thousand, with

balances to receive support expected to reach c.€1.2-1.4bn.

coverage ratio remained stable at the level of 44%. The Phoenix and Vega NPE securitizations of

€7bn total gross book value, which are expected to be completed in mid-2021, will further decrease

the NPE stock of the Group, while additional NPE de-risking transactions are in progress at the

moment, building on the improved capital trajectory of the Group. NPE outflows remained strong

during 2020 despite auctions being suspended for the largest part of the year. On the other hand,

inflows picked up in Q4.2020, mainly due to the first group of moratoria expirations. During

Q4.20203.3bn moratoria expired, reducing active moratoria to c.1bn at the end of December

2020.
