Lloyds Bank plc
Q1 2024 Interim Management Statement
24 April 2024
Member of the Lloyds Banking Group
FINANCIAL REVIEW
Income statement
Lloyds Bank plc together with its subsidiaries' (the Group) statutory profit
before tax for the first three months of 2024 was £1,587 million, 23 per cent
lower than the same period in 2023. This was due to lower net interest income
and higher operating expenses, partly offset by a lower impairment charge.
Profit for the period was £1,159 million (three months ended 31 March 2023:
£1,513 million).
Total income for the first three months was £4,385 million, a decrease of 5
per cent on 2023, primarily reflecting lower net interest income in the
quarter.
Net interest income of £3,127 million was down 12 per cent from the same
period in 2023, primarily driven by a lower net interest income margin. The
lower margin reflects expected headwinds due to deposit churn and asset margin
compression, particularly in the mortgage book as it refinances in a lower
margin environment. These factors were partially offset by benefits from
higher structural hedge earnings in the higher rate environment. Average
interest-earning banking assets were lower compared to the first three months
of 2023, significantly due to a modest reduction in the mortgage book and
continued repayments of government-backed lending in the Small and Medium
Businesses portfolio.
Other income was £171 million higher at £1,258 million in the three months
ended 31 March 2024 compared to £1,087 million in the same period last year,
driven by improved UK Motor Finance performance including growth from the
acquisition of Tusker.
Total operating expenses of £2,728 million were 18 per cent higher than the
same period in 2023. This includes expected elevated severance charges taken
early in the year and a new sector-wide Bank of England levy, replacing the
former charging structure. This annual levy of c.£0.1 billion was charged
through operating expenses in the first quarter and will have a broadly
neutral impact on profit in 2024, with an offsetting benefit recognised in net
interest income over the course of the year. The Group continues to maintain
cost discipline and delivery of cost efficiencies, in the context of
inflationary pressures and ongoing strategic investment. Operating lease
depreciation of £290 million increased compared to the prior year (three
months to 31 March 2023: £140 million). This reflects a full quarter of
depreciation from Tusker, alongside growth in the fleet size and declines in
used car prices.
The Group recognised remediation costs of £20 million in the first three
months (three months ended 31 March 2023: £17 million), in relation to
pre-existing programmes. There have been no further charges relating to the
potential impact of the FCA review into historical motor finance commission
arrangements, with the FCA having indicated it will update in September.
Impairment was a charge of £70 million (three months ended 31 March 2023:
£246 million). This reflects a larger credit from improvements to the
Group's economic outlook in the first quarter compared to the prior year. The
decrease also includes a release in Commercial Banking from loss rates used in
the model, while observing a low charge on new and existing Stage 3 clients.
Asset quality remains strong with credit performance across portfolios stable
in the quarter and remaining broadly at, or favourable to pre-pandemic
experience.
The Group recognised a tax expense of £428 million in the period compared to
£555 million in the first three months of 2023 driven by lower profit in the
period.
FINANCIAL REVIEW (continued)
Balance sheet
Total assets were £632 million higher at £606,037 million at 31 March 2024
compared to £605,405 million at 31 December 2023. Cash and balances at
central banks reduced by £4,883 million to £53,026 reflecting a change in
the mix of liquidity holdings. Financial assets at amortised cost were £5,396
million higher at £493,467 million compared to £488,071 million at
31 December 2023 with reverse repurchase agreements £6,849 million higher,
offset by a reduction in loans and advances to customers of £1,046 million to
£432,078 million. The decrease in loans and advances to customers represented
a £1.6 billion reduction in the UK mortgages portfolio following the expected
refinancing of the higher maturities in the fourth quarter of 2023, as well as
a £0.8 billion reduction in Small and Medium Business lending, including
repayments of government-backed lending. This was partly offset by growth in
UK Retail unsecured loans of £0.7 billion, due to organic balance growth and
lower repayments following a securitisation in the fourth quarter of 2023,
alongside growth in UK Motor Finance and credit cards.
Total liabilities were £541 million higher at £565,515 million compared to
£564,974 million at 31 December 2023. Customer deposits stood at £440,021
million at the end of the first quarter, a decrease of £1,932 million. Retail
deposits were up £1.3 billion in the quarter with a combined increase of
£0.9 billion across Retail savings and Wealth, driven by inflows to limited
withdrawal and fixed products and a £0.4 billion increase in current account
balances, benefiting from seasonally lower spend and bank holiday timing
impacts (with the latter expected to reverse in the second quarter). This was
partly offset by seasonal tax payments and outflows to savings products,
including the Group's own savings offers. Growth in Retail was more than
offset by a reduction in Commercial Banking deposits of £3.1 billion,
largely due to Small and Medium Businesses balance reductions. Offsetting this
reduction, amounts due to fellow Lloyds Banking Group undertakings increased
£930 million, debt securities in issue increased £1,649 million following
issuances during the quarter and other liabilities increased £770 million
driven by increased amounts due for settlement as a result of the bank holiday
weekend.
Total equity increased from £40,431 million at 31 December 2023 to £40,522
million at 31 March 2024, as a result of profit for the period partly offset
by increased longer-term rates impacting the cash flow hedging reserve and
pension surplus, along with the dividend paid in the quarter.
Capital
The Group's common equity tier 1 (CET1) capital ratio reduced from 14.4 per
cent at 31 December 2023 to 14.2 per cent at 31 March 2024. Profit for the
first three months of the year was offset by the accrual for foreseeable
ordinary dividends and an increase in risk-weighted assets.
The Group's total capital ratio reduced from 20.5 per cent at 31 December 2023
to 20.1 per cent at 31 March 2024 reflecting the increase in risk-weighted
assets and the impact of both interest rates and a reduction in eligible
provisions on Tier 2 capital.
Risk-weighted assets have increased by £1,744 million during the quarter from
£182,560 million at 31 December 2023 to £184,304 million at 31 March 2024.
This largely reflected the impact of Retail lending. The impact from credit
and model calibrations was minimal.
The Group's UK leverage ratio reduced from 5.6 per cent at 31 December 2023 to
5.5 per cent at 31 March 2024 reflecting an increase in the leverage exposure
measure principally related to increases in securities financing transactions
and off-balance sheet items.

ADDITIONAL FINANCIAL INFORMATION
1. Basis of presentation
This release covers the results of Lloyds Bank plc together with its
subsidiaries (the Group) for the three months ended 31 March 2024.
Accounting policies
The accounting policies are consistent with those applied by the Group in its
2023 Annual Report and Accounts.

3. UK economic assumptions
Base case and MES economic assumptions
The Group's base case scenario is for a slow expansion in GDP and a rise in
the unemployment rate alongside modest changes in residential and commercial
property prices. Following a reduction in inflationary pressures, UK Bank Rate
is expected to be lowered during 2024. Risks around this base case economic
view lie in both directions and are largely captured by the generation of
alternative economic scenarios.
The Group has taken into account the latest available information at the
reporting date in defining its base case scenario and generating alternative
economic scenarios. The scenarios include forecasts for key variables as of
the first quarter of 2024. Actuals for this period, or restatements of past
data, may have since emerged prior to publication. The Group's approach to
generating alternative economic scenarios is set out in detail in note 19 to
the financial statements for the year ended 31 December 2023.
Base case scenario by quarter
Key quarterly assumptions made by the Group in the base case scenario are
shown below. Gross domestic product is presented quarter-on-quarter. House
price growth, commercial real estate price growth and CPI inflation are
presented year-on-year, i.e. from the equivalent quarter in the previous year.
Unemployment rate and UK Bank Rate are presented as at the end of each
quarter.

an economic environment where supply shocks are the principal concern.
