Q3 2018 Results Announcement
 
 
30 September 2018
 
 
Performance Highlights
 
 
 
Strong financial performance with Group return on tangible equity of 11.1% and earnings per share of 21.6p for the nine months, excluding litigation and conduct charges
 
 
● Returns1:
 
● Group return on tangible equity (RoTE) of 11.1%, with profit before tax up 23% to £5.3bn, and double digit returns in both Barclays UK and Barclays International
● Remain on track to achieve Group RoTE targets of greater than 9% in 2019 and greater than 10% in 2020
 
● Cost efficiency1:
 
● Group operating expenses decreased 3% to £10.0bn, driving an improved cost: income ratio of 62% (Q317 YTD: 64%)
● Remain on track for Group operating expenses in the region of £13.9bn in 2018, and guidance of £13.6-13.9bn in 2019. Targeting a cost: income ratio of below 60% over time
 
● Capital and dividends:
 
● Common equity tier 1 (CET1) ratio was 13.2% (December 2017: 13.3%), at the end-state target of c.13%, principally reflecting organic capital generation from profits offset by a c.65bps impact from litigation and conduct charges and c.40bps from dividends paid and foreseen
● Following regulatory approval, proceeding with the redemption of the $2.65bn 8.125% Series 5 Non-Cumulative Callable Dollar Preference Shares and $2bn 8.25% Additional Tier 1 (AT1) securities, to be effected on 15 December 2018. This will result in a pro-forma decrease of 33bps to the 30 September 2018 CET1 ratio, but an ongoing earnings benefit
● Intention to pay a dividend of 6.5p per share for 2018, subject to regulatory approvals. Interim dividend of 2.5p per share paid in Q318
 
 
Barclays Group profit before tax was £3,120m (Q317 YTD: £3,448m), which included litigation and conduct charges of £2.1bn (Q317 YTD: £0.8bn) principally related to a £1.4bn settlement with the US Department of Justice (DoJ) with regard to Residential Mortgage-Backed Securities (RMBS) and charges of £400m (Q317 YTD: £700m) due to Payment Protection Insurance (PPI) in Q118
Excluding litigation and conduct charges, Group profit before tax increased 23% to £5,267m despite the adverse effect of the 5% depreciation of average USD against GBP. This increase in profit before tax was driven by a 53% improvement in credit impairment charges, primarily reflecting improved consensus-based macroeconomic forecasts in the UK and US, single name recoveries in wholesale banking and portfolio adjustments as IFRS 9 continues to embed, and a 3% reduction in operating expenses
Barclays UK profit before tax increased to £1,566m (Q317 YTD: £1,295m). Excluding litigation and conduct, profit before tax increased 2% to £2,034m reflecting a 12% reduction in impairment charges and stable income, partially offset by a 2% increase in operating expenses reflecting continued investment in digitisation. RoTE was 18.9% (Q317 YTD: 19.8%) excluding litigation and conduct
Barclays International profit before tax increased to £3,560m (Q317 YTD: £3,269m), driven by a 73% decrease in credit impairment charges, while income declined 2%, mainly due to prior year one-offs in Consumer, Cards and Payments. RoTE excluding litigation and conduct was 11.6% (Q317 YTD: 10.1%), reflecting improved returns in both the Corporate and Investment Bank (CIB) and Consumer, Cards and Payments of 9.7% and 21.7% (Q317 YTD: 8.4% and 19.4%) respectively
Attributable profit was £1,470m (Q317 YTD: loss of £628m) and basic earnings per share was 9.4p (Q317 YTD: loss per share of 3.0p). Excluding litigation and conduct, earnings per share was 21.6p (Q317 YTD: 1.7p)
Tangible net asset value (TNAV) per share was 260p (December 2017: 276p) as 21.6p of earnings per share, excluding litigation and conduct, was more than offset by 4.5p per share paid in dividends, the impact of the implementation of IFRS 9 and litigation and conduct charges. TNAV per share increased 1p in the quarter
The CET1 ratio was 13.2% (December 2017: 13.3%), principally reflecting capital generation from profits offset by a c.65bps impact from litigation and conduct charges and c.40bps from dividends paid and foreseen. The CET1 ratio increased 20bps in the quarter from 13.0% at June 2018

 Excluding litigation and conduct, with returns targets based on a Barclays Group CET1 ratio of c.13%.
 
 
James E Staley, Group Chief Executive Officer, said:
 
“I am pleased to report another quarter which demonstrates that we are firmly on track to produce improved returns for shareholders as our strategy continues to deliver.
 
Our Group RoTE for the nine months of 11.1%, and 10.2% in the third quarter, excluding litigation and conduct, demonstrates we are well placed to meet our targets of a greater than 9% Group RoTE for 2019, and greater than 10% for 2020, based on a CET1 ratio of c.13%.
 
Earnings per share (EPS) of 6.6p, delivered in this quarter brings our year-to-date EPS to 21.6p excluding litigation and conduct. Year to date profits before tax, excluding litigation and conduct, increased 23% to £5.3bn, and in the quarter, Group PBT increased 32% to £1.6bn. Both Barclays UK and Barclays International delivered double digit returns for the nine months.
 
During the third quarter our Corporate and Investment bank outperformed peers again in Markets, with a 19% increase in income, and, in Banking, while we saw a dip in income, we have seen strong completion activity in October. Barclays was advisor on three of the largest M&A transactions executed in the period. Barclays UK PBT, excluding litigation and conduct, grew 18% in Q3 to £794m, on revenues up 2% to £1.9bn compared with last year, resulting in positive jaws of 1%.
 
Having completed the restructuring of Barclays in 2017, our transatlantic consumer and wholesale bank is now delivering. We are prudently managing risk and our balance sheet, and benefitting from our diversified model with earnings resilience.
 
Our performance means we are also able to maintain a strong capital position, posting a 13.2% CET1 ratio as at the end of September, as well as investing in growth for the future.
 
It remains our intention to pay a dividend for 2018 of 6.5p, and I am particularly pleased that the Prudential Regulatory Authority has granted us permission to call the outstanding retail dollar preference shares dating from 2008. This will drive a reduction in financing costs and further demonstrates confidence in the strength of our capital position today, as well as our capital generating capacity going forward.
 
In spite of macro-economic uncertainty, and particularly concerns over Brexit which weigh heavily on market sentiment, 2018 is proving to be a year of delivery on our strategy at Barclays. We remain focussed on generating improved returns, and on distributing a greater proportion of excess capital to shareholders over time.”
 
James E Staley, Group Chief Executive Officer

The profit after tax attributable to other equity instrument holders of £522m (Q317 YTD: £458m) is offset by a tax credit recorded in reserves of £141m (Q317 YTD: £125m). The net amount of £381m (Q317 YTD: £333m), along with non-controlling interests, is deducted from profit after tax in order to calculate earnings per share and return on average tangible shareholders’ equity.

Capital, RWAs and leverage measures are calculated applying the transitional arrangements of the Capital Requirements Regulation (CRR). This includes IFRS 9 transitional arrangements.
4
The fully loaded CET1 ratio was 12.8%, with £40.5bn of CET1 capital and £316bn of RWAs, calculated without applying the transitional arrangements of the CRR.
 
Group Finance Director’s Review
 
Results in the first nine months of the year were encouraging, with a Group return on tangible equity of 11.1% driven by double digit returns in both Barclays UK and Barclays International, and improved Group earnings per share of 21.6p, excluding litigation and conduct. Profit before tax increased 23% driven by a 53% improvement in credit impairment charges, primarily reflecting improved consensus-based macroeconomic forecasts and single name recoveries. Stable income and a reduction in operating expenses drove positive jaws and an improved cost: income ratio of 62%, excluding litigation and conduct.
 
The CET1 ratio of 13.2% is at the end-state target, and Barclays reiterates its intention to pay a total dividend of 6.5p for 2018, subject to regulatory approvals, having paid an interim dividend of 2.5p. Barclays remains confident of achieving its returns and cost targets.
 
 
Group performance
 
Profit before tax was £3,120m (Q317 YTD: £3,448m). Excluding litigation and conduct charges, profit before tax increased 23% to £5,267m driven by a 53% improvement in credit impairment charges and a 3% reduction in operating expenses. The 5% depreciation of average USD against GBP adversely impacted profits and income, and positively impacted credit impairment charges and operating expenses
 
Total income was £16,063m (Q317 YTD: £16,054m). Barclays UK income was stable, while Barclays International income declined 2% reflecting stable income in CIB and a 7% reduction in Consumer, Cards and Payments, primarily due to prior year one-off gains as a result of management de-risking actions. Head Office income was a net expense of £262m (Q317 YTD: income of £8m), and the Group benefited from the non-recurrence of negative income associated with the former Non-Core division, which was closed on 1 July 2017
 
Credit impairment charges decreased 53% to £825m primarily due to improved consensus-based macroeconomic forecasts in the UK and US, single name recoveries in wholesale banking, portfolio adjustments as IFRS 9 continues to embed, and the impact of repositioning the US cards portfolio towards a lower risk mix. The Barclays Group loan loss rate was 33bps (Q317 YTD: 55bps)
 
Barclays adopted IFRS 9, Financial Instruments from 1 January 2018, requiring the recognition of impairment earlier in the lifecycle of a product having considered forward-looking information. As experienced in the year to date, the impairment measurement and resulting charge has been more volatile in response to the impacts from an improved consensus-based macroeconomic outlook, higher than expected seasonality and single name recoveries. These impacts are not expected to repeat in a stable economic and credit environment. In addition, the year to date impairment charge included a non-recurring reduction from portfolio adjustments as IFRS 9 continues to be embedded within our business as usual process and controls including the performance of impairment models
 
Operating expenses of £12,150m (Q317 YTD: £11,087m) included litigation and conduct charges of £2,147m (Q317 YTD: £824m), excluding which, operating expenses reduced to £10,003m (Q317 YTD: £10,263m). This 3% reduction reflected the non-recurrence of costs associated with the former Non-Core division, while costs increased 2% in Barclays UK and were stable in Barclays International primarily due to investments in businesses and digitising the bank. The cost: income ratio, excluding litigation and conduct, reduced to 62% (Q317 YTD: 64%)
 
Other net income declined to £32m (Q317 YTD: £244m) primarily reflecting the non-recurrence of gains on the sales of Barclays’ share in VocaLink and a joint venture in Japan in Q217
 
The effective tax rate was 31.3% (Q317 YTD: 32.0%). Excluding litigation and conduct, the underlying effective tax rate was 20.0% (Q317 YTD: 26.4%), with the year-on-year reduction primarily due to the reduction in the US federal corporate income tax rate under the US Tax Cuts and Jobs Act and the beneficial impact of adjustments to prior periods recognised in 2018. The Group’s underlying effective rate for the full year 2018 and future periods is expected to be in the mid-20 percents
 
RoTE was 11.1% (Q317 YTD: 0.8%) and earnings per share was 21.6p (Q317 YTD: 1.7p), excluding litigation and conduct
 
TNAV per share was 260p (December 2017: 276p) as 21.6p of earnings per share, excluding litigation and conduct, was more than offset by 4.5p per share paid in dividends, the impact of the implementation of IFRS 9 and litigation and conduct charges in Q118. TNAV per share increased 1p in the quarter
 
 
 
Barclays UK
 
RoTE excluding litigation and conduct decreased to 18.9% (Q317 YTD: 19.8%). Including PPI charges of £400m (Q317 YTD: £700m) RoTE was 12.7% (Q317 YTD: 9.4%)
 
Total income was stable at £5,520m (Q317 YTD: £5,513m)
 
 
Personal Banking income decreased 3% to £3,008m reflecting the non-recurrence of a valuation gain on Barclays’ preference shares in Visa Inc. in Q117 and the realignment of clients from Barclays UK to Barclays International as part of structural reform
 
Barclaycard Consumer UK income increased 3% to £1,582m
 
Business Banking income increased 5% to £930m driven by the realignment of clients from Barclays International to Barclays UK, as part of structural reform, partially offset by the non-recurrence of the Visa gain
 
Net interest margin decreased 31bps to 3.24% reflecting the integration of the Education, Social Housing and Local Authority (ESHLA) portfolio and margin pressure
Credit impairment charges decreased 12% to £530m due to improved consensus-based macroeconomic forecasts, partially offset by one-off charges in Business Banking. The 30 and 90 day arrears rates in UK cards remained stable at 1.8% (Q317: 1.8%) and 0.9% (Q317: 0.9%) respectively
 
Operating expenses excluding litigation and conduct increased 2% to £2,961m as continued investment in digitising the bank and inflationary pressures were partially offset by lower costs of setting up the ring-fenced bank and cost efficiencies. The cost: income ratio excluding litigation and conduct was 54% (Q317 YTD: 53%)
 
RoTE excluding litigation and conduct decreased to 18.9% (Q317 YTD: 19.8%) driven by the integration of the ESHLA portfolio, partially offset by an increase in profit before tax of 2% to £2,034m
 
RWAs increased to £74.8bn (December 2017: £70.9bn) primarily due to regulatory methodology changes for the ESHLA portfolio and growth in the mortgage book
 
 
 
Barclays International
 
Profit before tax excluding litigation and conduct increased 11% to £3,654m resulting in a double digit RoTE of 11.6% (Q317 YTD: 10.1%), reflecting improved returns in both CIB, and Consumer, Cards and Payments of 9.7% and 21.7% (Q317 YTD: 8.4% and 19.4%) respectively
 
The 5% depreciation of average USD against GBP adversely impacted profits and income, and positively impacted credit impairment charges and operating expenses
 
Total income decreased 2% to £10,805m
 
 
CIB income was stable at £7,614m (Q317 YTD: £7,626m) as a 12% increase in Markets income to £3,955m was offset by a 7% decrease in Banking income to £3,756m
 
 
FICC income increased 1% to £2,293m as continued strong performance in foreign exchange was offset by a decline in credit income
 
 
Equities income increased 31% to £1,662m reflecting an improved performance in derivatives from increased client activity and a continued strong performance in equity financing
 
 
Banking fee income decreased 5% to £1,906m, following a strong Q317 YTD. Banking global fee share for Q318 YTD increased since FY17
 
 
Corporate lending income declined 23% to £635m driven by lower lending balances, including the redeployment of RWAs within CIB, and the realignment of clients between Barclays UK and Barclays International as part of structural reform
 
 
Transaction banking income was stable at £1,215m (Q317 YTD: £1,221m) as growth in deposits and transactions was offset by the impact of the realignment of clients between Barclays UK and Barclays International as part of structural reform
 
Consumer, Cards and Payments income decreased 7% to £3,191m driven by the non-recurrence of a £192m gain relating to an asset sale in US cards in Q117, a £74m valuation gain on Barclays’ preference shares in Visa Inc. in Q117 and a negative £41m revaluation of the same shares in Q318, partially offset by continued underlying growth in US cards and a £53m gain on sale of a US cards portfolio in Q218
Credit impairment charges decreased 73% to £304m including portfolio adjustments as IFRS 9 continues to embed
 
CIB credit impairment charges decreased to a release of £185m (Q317 YTD: charge of £86m) primarily due to single name recoveries and improved consensus-based macroeconomic forecasts
 
Consumer, Cards and Payments credit impairment charges decreased 53% to £489m reflecting the non-recurrence of a £168m charge in Q317 relating to deferred consideration from the Q117 asset sale in US cards, improved consensus-based macroeconomic forecasts in the US, the impact of repositioning the US cards portfolio towards a lower risk mix and repayment of certain US card balances following higher than expected seasonality in Q218
Operating expenses increased 1% to £6,977m
 
CIB operating expenses decreased 1% to £5,303m reflecting the reduction of structural reform costs, and the reduced impact of the change in compensation awards introduced in Q416, offset by continued investment
 
Consumer, Cards and Payments operating expenses increased 8% to £1,674m. Excluding litigation and conduct operating expenses increased 5% to £1,625m including continued growth and investment, primarily within the US cards and merchant acquiring businesses
Other net income decreased to £36m (Q317 YTD: £233m) due to the non-recurrence of a gain of £109m on the sale of Barclays’ share in VocaLink to MasterCard and a gain of £76m on the sale of a joint venture in Japan in Q217
 
RWAs increased to £214.6bn (December 2017: £210.3bn) driven by the appreciation of period end USD against GBP and increased lending in Consumer, Cards and Payments
 
 
Head Office
 
Loss before tax was £2,006m (Q317 YTD: £469m) driven by litigation and conduct charges of £1,585m (Q317 YTD: £76m) primarily related to the £1.4bn settlement with the US DoJ relating to RMBS. Excluding litigation and conduct, loss before tax was £421m (Q317 YTD: £393m)
 
Total income reduced to an expense of £262m (Q317 YTD: income of £8m) reflecting certain legacy capital instrument funding costs of £263m now charged to Head Office, hedge accounting and an increased net expense from treasury operations. This was partially offset by a one-off gain of £155m from the settlement of receivables relating to the Lehman Brothers acquisition
 
Operating expenses excluding litigation and conduct reduced to £159m (Q317 YTD: £201m) driven by lower costs associated with legacy Non-Core assets and businesses, which were integrated on 1 July 2017
 
Other net expenses were £9m (Q317 YTD: £186m) due to the non-recurrence of a £180m expense in Q217 on the recycling of the currency translation reserve to the income statement on the sale of Barclays Bank Egypt
 
RWAs decreased to £26.8bn (December 2017: £31.8bn) reflecting the net reduction due to Barclays Africa Group Limited (BAGL) regulatory deconsolidation
 
 
 
Group capital and leverage
 
Barclays’ CET1 ratio decreased to 13.2% (December 2017: 13.3%) due to an increase in RWAs of £3.2bn to £316.2bn whilst CET1 capital increased by £0.1bn to £41.7bn
 
The increase in RWAs reflected appreciation of period end USD against GBP, increased lending in Consumer, Cards and Payments and regulatory methodology changes for the ESHLA portfolio in Barclays UK, offset by the net reduction due to BAGL regulatory deconsolidation
 
£2bn of organic capital generation from profits, after absorbing the impacts of litigation and conduct charges, was largely offset by £1.2bn of regulatory deductions for dividends paid and foreseen and £0.5bn of pension deficit contributions
 
The average UK leverage ratio decreased to 4.6% (December 2017: 4.9%) primarily driven by increased exposures due to securities financing transactions (SFTs) and trading portfolio assets
 
 
 
Group funding and liquidity
 
The Barclays Group continued to maintain surpluses to its internal and regulatory liquidity requirements. The liquidity pool decreased to £213bn (December 2017: £220bn) driven largely by the deployment of funding to support business growth. The liquidity coverage ratio (LCR) increased to 161% (December 2017: 154%), equivalent to a surplus of £80bn (December 2017: £75bn) to the 100% requirement, following a net decline in business stresses
 
Wholesale funding outstanding (excluding repurchase agreements) was £151bn (December 2017: £144bn). In the nine months to September 2018, Barclays Group issued £10bn of minimum requirement for own funds and eligible liabilities (MREL) instruments from Barclays PLC (the Parent company) in a range of different currencies. Barclays Bank PLC continued to issue in the shorter term markets and Barclays Bank UK PLC issued in the shorter term and secured markets, helping to maintain their stable and diversified funding bases. Notable issuances have included $3bn 3 year senior unsecured notes from Barclays Bank PLC and a £1.25bn 5 year covered bond from Barclays Bank UK PLC. Barclays Group has continued to reduce its reliance on short-term wholesale funding, where the proportion maturing in less than 1 year fell to 29% (December 2017: 31%)
 
 
 
Other matters
 
In Q118 Barclays reached a settlement with the US DoJ to resolve the civil complaint brought by the DoJ in December 2016 relating to RMBS sold by Barclays between 2005 and 2007. Barclays paid a civil monetary penalty of $2,000m (£1,420m)
 
Additional charges of £400m (Q317 YTD: £700m) relating to PPI were recognised in Q118 mainly as a result of continued higher complaints flow. The remaining PPI provision as at 30 September 2018 was £1.1bn (December 2017: £1.6bn) to cover claims through to the deadline of 29 August 2019. Management views its current PPI provision as appropriate, but will continue to closely monitor complaint trends and the associated provision adequacy
 
On 1 April 2018 Barclays successfully established its ring-fenced bank, Barclays Bank UK PLC, after receiving approval from the Prudential Regulation Authority (PRA) and the High Court of Justice of England and Wales to implement the ring-fencing transfer scheme under Part VII of the Financial Services Markets Act 2000
 
The PRA agreed to Barclays fully deconsolidating BAGL for regulatory reporting purposes effective 30 June 2018. Barclays had been applying proportional consolidation for regulatory purposes since Q217. Barclays’ shareholding in BAGL of 14.9% is now treated as a 250% risk weighted asset
 
On 21 May 2018 Barclays announced that the Crown Court had dismissed all of the charges that had been brought by the Serious Fraud Office (SFO) against Barclays PLC and Barclays Bank PLC regarding matters which arose in the context of Barclays’ capital raisings in 2008. On 23 July 2018 the SFO made an application to the High Court seeking to reinstate against Barclays PLC and Barclays Bank PLC all of the charges dismissed by the Crown Court. Barclays is defending the application brought by the SFO before the High Court in late October
 
Following regulatory approval, Barclays is proceeding with the redemption of the $2.65bn 8.125% Series 5 Non-Cumulative Callable Dollar Preference Shares and $2bn 8.25% Additional Tier 1 (AT1) securities, to be effected on 15 December 2018. The redemptions will result in an ongoing earnings benefit, and will result in a pro-forma decrease of 33bps to the 30 September 2018 CET1 ratio due to these instruments being held on the balance sheet at historical FX rates
