its usual practice, Barclays expects that from time to time over the coming
quarter it will meet with investors globally to discuss these results and
other matters relating to the Group.

 

Non-IFRS performance measures

 

Barclays' management believes that the non-IFRS performance measures included
in this document provide valuable information to the readers of the financial
statements as they enable the reader to identify a more consistent basis for
comparing the businesses' performance between financial periods and provide
more detail concerning the elements of performance which the managers of these
businesses are most directly able to influence or are relevant for an
assessment of the Group. They also reflect an important aspect of the way in
which operating targets are defined and performance is monitored by Barclays'
management. However, any non-IFRS performance measures in this document are
not a substitute for IFRS measures and readers should consider the IFRS
measures as well. Refer to the appendix on pages 40 to 48 for definitions and
calculations of non-IFRS performance measures included throughout this
document, and reconciliations to the most directly comparable IFRS measures.

 

Forward-looking statements

 

This document contains certain forward-looking statements within the meaning
of Section 21E of the US Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and
Section 27A of the US Securities Act of 1933, as amended, with respect to the
Group. Barclays cautions readers that no forward-looking statement is a
guarantee of future performance and that actual results or other financial
condition or performance measures could differ materially from those contained
in the forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements can be
identified by the fact that they do not relate only to historical or current
facts. Forward-looking statements sometimes use words such as 'may', 'will',
'seek', 'continue', 'aim', 'anticipate', 'target', 'projected', 'expect',
'estimate', 'intend', 'plan', 'goal', 'believe', 'achieve' or other words of
similar meaning. Forward-looking statements can be made in writing but also
may be made verbally by directors, officers and employees of the Group
(including during management presentations) in connection with this document.
Examples of forward-looking statements include, among others, statements or
guidance regarding or relating to the Group's future financial position,
business strategy, income levels, costs, assets and liabilities, impairment
charges, provisions, capital leverage and other regulatory ratios, capital
distributions (including policy on dividends and share buybacks), return on
tangible equity, projected levels of growth in banking and financial markets,
industry trends, any commitments and targets (including sustainability-related
commitments and targets), plans and objectives for future operations,
International Financial Reporting Standards ("IFRS") and other statements that
are not historical or current facts. By their nature, forward-looking
statements involve risk and uncertainty because they relate to future events
and circumstances. Forward-looking statements speak only as at the date on
which they are made. Forward-looking statements may be affected by a number of
factors, including, without limitation: changes in legislation, regulations,
governmental and regulatory policies, expectations and actions, voluntary
codes of practices and the interpretation thereof, changes in IFRS and other
accounting standards, including practices with regard to the interpretation
and application thereof and emerging and developing sustainability reporting
standards (including emissions accounting methodologies); changes in tax laws
and practice; the outcome of current and future legal proceedings and
regulatory investigations; the Group's ability along with governments and
other stakeholders to measure, manage and mitigate the impacts of climate
change effectively or navigate inconsistencies and conflicts in the manner in
which climate policy is implemented in the regions where the Group operates,
including as a result of the adoption of rules and regulations taking a
different or opposing position on sustainability matters, or other forms of
governmental and regulatory action against sustainability policies;
environmental, social and geopolitical risks and incidents and similar events
beyond the Group's control; financial crime; the impact of competition in the
banking and financial services industry; capital, liquidity, leverage and
other regulatory rules and requirements applicable to past, current and future
periods; UK, US, Eurozone and global macroeconomic and business conditions,
including inflation; volatility in credit and capital markets; market related
risks such as changes in interest rates and foreign exchange rates; reforms to
benchmark interest rates and indices; higher or lower asset valuations;
changes in credit ratings of any entity within the Group or any securities
issued by it; changes in counterparty risk; changes in consumer behaviour;
changes in trade policy, including the imposition of tariffs or other
protectionist measures; the direct and indirect consequences of the conflicts
in the Middle East and Ukraine on European and global macroeconomic
conditions, political stability and financial markets; changes in US
legislation and policy; developments in the UK's relationship with the
European Union; the risk of cyberattacks, information or security breaches,
technology failures or operational disruptions and any subsequent impact on
the Group's reputation, business or operations; the use of new technology,
including artificial intelligence; the Group's ability to access funding; and
the success of acquisitions, disposals, joint ventures and other strategic
transactions. A number of these factors are beyond the Group's control. As a
result, the Group's actual financial position, results, financial and
non-financial metrics or performance measures or its ability to meet
commitments and targets may differ materially from the statements or guidance
set forth in the Group's forward-looking statements. In setting its targets
and outlook for the period 2026-2028, Barclays has made certain assumptions
about the macroeconomic environment, including, without limitation, inflation,
interest and unemployment rates, the different markets and competitive
conditions in which Barclays operates, and its ability to grow certain
businesses and achieve costs savings and other structural actions. Additional
risks and factors which may impact the Group's future financial condition and
performance are identified in Barclays PLC's filings with the US Securities
and Exchange Commission ("SEC") (including, without limitation, Barclays PLC's
Annual Report on Form 20-F for the financial year ended 31 December 2025),
which are available on the SEC's website at www.sec.gov (http://www.sec.gov) .

 

Subject to Barclays PLC's obligations under the applicable laws and
regulations of any relevant jurisdiction (including, without limitation, the
UK and the US) in relation to disclosure and ongoing information, we undertake
no obligation to update publicly or revise any forward-looking statements,
whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise.

 

Performance Highlights

 

For Q126, Barclays delivered a return on tangible equity (RoTE) of 13.5%,
announced a £500m buyback and reiterated all 2026 and 2028 targets

 

C. S. Venkatakrishnan, Group Chief Executive, commented

"Barclays delivered another solid quarter with a 13.5% RoTE in Q126, and
double-digit returns in all our businesses. This was despite a one-off charge
and impairments in the quarter. Top line income grew 6% year-on-year, driven
by broad based divisional performance including in the Investment Bank, where
we generated over £4bn quarterly income for the first time. The cost: income
ratio improved to 56% and earnings per share (EPS) grew by 8% to 14.1p. Our
capital position remains robust with a 14.1% common equity tier 1 (CET1) ratio
and we are announcing a £500m buyback today. The breadth and quality of our
businesses mean we remain confident in delivering all our financial targets
across a range of environments. This includes greater than 12% RoTE in 2026
and greater than 14% RoTE in 2028."

 

 ●    Q126 Group RoTE of 13.5% (Q125: 14.0%) with EPS of 14.1p (Q125: 13.0p)
 ●    Announced intention to initiate a share buyback of up to £500m following the
      completion of the ongoing £1bn share buyback announced at FY25 Results
 ●    Q126 Group net interest income (NII) excluding Barclays Investment Bank (IB)
      and Head office of £3.4bn, of which Barclays UK was £2.0bn, on track to meet
      the 2026 guidance of greater than £13.5bn and £8.1-£8.3bn respectively
 ●    5% growth in UK lending year-on-year in Q126
      -                            Delivered £22bn of c.£30bn planned UK risk weighted assets (RWAs) growth
                                   since 2024¹, of which £15bn was organic growth
 ●    Q126 Group cost: income ratio improving to 56% (Q125: 57%) driven by positive
      operating leverage
      -                            Delivered c.£150m of gross cost efficiency savings in Q126
 ●    Q126 Group loan loss rate (LLR) of 74bps included a £0.2bn single name
      impairment charge in the IB which had a c.20bps impact on Group LLR
      -                                                                     As a result, Group LLR in FY26 is expected to be around the top of the
                                                                            50-60bps through the cycle guidance range
 ●    Strong balance sheet with CET1 ratio of 14.1%
      -                            Taking into account the impact of the £500m share buyback announced today,
                                   the CET1 ratio as of 31 March 2026 would be reduced to 13.9%, at the top end
                                   of the 13-14% range

 ●    Group total operating expenses were £4.5bn, up 4% year on year

Group Finance Director's Review

 

Q126 Group performance

 

 ●    Barclays delivered a profit before tax of £2,814m (Q125: £2,719m), RoTE of
      13.5% (Q125: 14.0%) and EPS of 14.1p (Q125: 13.0p)
 ●    The Group has a diverse income profile across businesses and geographies. The
      7% year-on-year appreciation of average GBP against USD negatively impacted
      income and profits, and positively impacted credit impairment charges and
      total operating expenses
 ●    Group income increased 6% to £8,163m, as increased NII, supported by higher
      structural hedge income and lending growth, and higher income in Global
      Markets and Investment Banking fees, were partially offset by net losses on
      fair value lending in IB(1)
 ●    Group total operating expenses increased to £4,547m (Q125: £4,365m)
      -                                         Group operating costs increased 2% to £4,359m, reflecting further investment
                                                spend, business growth and inflation, partially offset by c.£150m of cost
                                                efficiency savings and FX movements
      -                                         Litigation and conduct charges of £104m primarily reflected a £105m increase
                                                in the provision for the FCA motor finance redress scheme
 ●    Credit impairment charges increased to £823m (Q125: £643m), primarily driven
      by a single name charge of £228m in IB. Uncertainty persists and this is
      reflected in a net £20m increase in related management adjustments. As a
      result, total coverage ratio increased to 1.3% (December 2025: 1.2%)
 ●    The effective tax rate (ETR) was 22.7% (Q125: 22.8%)
 ●    Attributable profit was £1,932m (Q125: £1,864m)
 ●    Total assets increased to £1,694.8bn (December 2025: £1,544.2bn) driven by
      higher activity in Global Markets as we continue to support clients through a
      range of environments
 ●    TNAV per share decreased to 405p (December 2025: 409p) as EPS of 14.1p and a
      3p benefit from the currency translation reserve was more than offset by an
      11p negative movement in the cash flow hedging reserve, a 6p impact from FY25
      dividends paid in Q126, and 6p impact from share awards vesting

 

Group capital and leverage

 

 ●    The CET1 ratio decreased to 14.1% (December 2025: 14.3%). Taking into account
      the impact of the £500m share buyback announced today, the CET1 ratio as of
      31 March 2026 would be reduced to 13.9% (at the top end of the 13-14% target
      range)
 ●    The 26bps decrease in the CET1 ratio at Q126, driven by an RWAs increase of
      £7.7bn to £364.5bn, partially offset by an increase in CET1 capital of
      £0.1bn to £51.2bn, was due to:
      -                                        53bps increase from attributable profit
      -                                        41bps decrease driven by shareholder distributions including the £1.0bn share
                                               buyback announced with FY25 results and the accrual for the FY26 dividend
      -                                        17bps decrease from other CET1 capital movements, including the net impact of
                                               share awards vesting
      -                                        22bps decrease as a result of a £5.5bn increase in RWAs, excluding the impact
                                               of foreign exchange movements,  primarily driven by lending growth in UK
                                               businesses and higher activity in Global Markets
      -                                        A £0.4bn increase in CET1 capital due to an increase in the currency
                                               translation reserve was partially offset by a £2.1bn increase in RWAs as a
                                               result of foreign exchange movements
 ●    The UK leverage ratio decreased to 4.8% (December 2025: 5.1%) as the leverage
      exposure increased by £74.0bn to £1,321.3bn (December 2025: £1,247.3bn).
      The increase in leverage exposure was primarily driven by higher activity in
      Global Markets

 

Group funding and liquidity

 

 ●    The liquidity metrics remain above regulatory requirements, underpinned by
      well-diversified sources of funding, a stable global deposit franchise and a
      highly liquid balance sheet
 ●    The liquidity pool was £326.1bn, a decrease of £11.7bn from December 2025.
      The decrease in the liquidity pool was primarily driven by increased
      utilisation across Markets and Investment Banking and higher Treasury usage
 ●    The average(2) LCR was 165.4% (December 2025: 170.0%), equivalent to a surplus
      of £125.9bn (December 2025: £131.2bn)
 ●    Total deposits increased to £587.6bn (December 2025: £585.6bn), primarily
      driven by deposit growth in International Corporate Bank in IB
 ●    The average(3) Net Stable Funding Ratio (NSFR) was 135.4% (December 2025:
      135.2%), which represents a £166.9bn surplus (December 2025: £166.3bn) above
      the 100% regulatory requirement

 

 1  Q126 includes c.£40m of fair value losses on lending. Q125 included c.£105m
    of fair value gains on leverage finance lending.
 2  Represents average of the last 12 spot month end ratios. In June 2025,
    Barclays implemented a new methodology for calculating net stress outflows
    related to secured financing transactions in the liquidity coverage ratio.
 3  Represents average of the last four spot quarter end ratios.

 

Group funding and liquidity (continued)

 

 ●    Wholesale funding outstanding, excluding repurchase agreements, was £227.0bn
      (December 2025: £220.1bn)
 ●    The Group issued £3.0bn equivalent of minimum requirement for own funds and
      eligible liabilities (MREL) instruments from Barclays PLC (the Parent company)
      as of Q126. The Group has a strong MREL position with a ratio of 35.4%, which
      is in excess of the regulatory requirement of 30.5% excluding any applicable
      Prudential Regulation Authority (PRA) buffer

 

Other matters

 

 ●    Motor finance commission arrangements:

      From 2003 to late 2019, Barclays, through Clydesdale Financial Services
      Limited (CFSL), a wholly owned subsidiary of the group, provided motor finance
      to customers in the UK.

      In January 2024, the FCA appointed a skilled person to review the historical
      use of discretionary commission arrangements and sales in the UK motor finance
      market. In October 2025, the FCA consulted on an industry-wide redress scheme
      for eligible motor finance customers, and Barclays engaged with the FCA as
      part of this process.

      In March 2026, the FCA published its final rules giving effect to two redress
      schemes for eligible motor finance customers where a commission was payable by
      the lender to the broker (one scheme for each of the pre and post 1 April 2014
      periods).

      Barclays increased its provision in Q126 by £105m to reflect the expected
      financial impact of the redress schemes. The increase in provision is
      primarily driven by moving from a multi-scenario approach to a single scenario
      based on the FCA's final rules and higher compensatory interest. This resulted
      in a provision of £430m in respect of this matter as at 31 March 2026 (as at
      31 December 2025: £325m). The provision as at 31 March 2026 reflects
      Barclays' estimate of cases in scope of the FCA redress schemes, the
      anticipated level of customer redress under the FCA's methodology (including
      compensatory interest at a minimum of 3% per annum), the estimated customer
      response rate (with reference to prior remediation exercises across the
      Group), and implementation costs. The ultimate financial impact could differ
      from the current estimate due to factors such as customer response rates and
      average cost of redress.

      Barclays has decided not to challenge the FCA's final rules in the interests
      of enabling a swift resolution for customers. However, Barclays strongly
      disagrees with aspects which require financial redress even where customers
      suffered no demonstrable financial harm.

      Barclays understands that it is likely there will be at least one legal
      challenge to the FCA's final rules. The legal and regulatory outcomes and the
      nature, extent and timing of any remediation action, therefore remain
      uncertain. Barclays has not incorporated the potential impact of any legal
      challenge into the provision estimate.

 ●    USCB portfolio changes in Q226:
      -                                         American Airlines co-branded credit card portfolio exit: On 24 April 2026
                                                Barclays exited its American Airlines co-branded credit card partnership,
                                                releasing c.$5bn of RWAs and generating an estimated gain on sale of c.$300m
      -                                         Best Egg, Inc. (Best Egg) acquisition: On or around 1 May 2026, Barclays
                                                expects to complete the acquisition of Best Egg for $800m, subject to
                                                customary post-completion purchase price adjustments and satisfaction of
                                                remaining conditions to closing. Best Egg is a leading US direct-to-consumer
                                                personal loan origination platform focused on prime borrowers. The acquisition
                                                is expected to generate c.$500m of goodwill and intangibles
      -                                         The estimated net impact of both transactions is expected to marginally
                                                increase the Barclays Group CET1 ratio in Q226

Barclays UK delivered a RoTE of 19.7% (Q125: 17.4%) supported by robust
income, disciplined cost management and underpinned by strong asset quality

 

Income statement - Q126 compared to Q125

 ●    Profit before tax increased 14% to £863m
 ●    Total income increased 9% to £2,258m. NII increased 9% to £1,986m, as higher
      structural hedge income was partially offset by retail deposit dynamics. Net
      fee, commission and other income increased 8% to £272m
 ●    Total operating expenses increased 5% to £1,217m, driven by higher
      investments and inflation. Ongoing efficiency savings continue to be
      reinvested, to drive sustainable improvement to the cost: income ratio
 ●    Credit impairment charges were £178m (Q125: £158m), reflecting stable
      underlying credit performance, high quality mortgage lending portfolio with a
      marginal increase in delinquencies in Retail credit cards. A £10m adjustment
      has been recognised in the Retail credit cards portfolio, reflecting a
      marginally weaker UK unemployment baseline than assumed in the Q126 scenario.
      Retail credit cards 30 and 90 day arrears rates were 0.9% (Q125: 0.7%) and
      0.3% (Q125: 0.2%) respectively. The Retail credit cards total coverage ratio
      was 4.6% (December 2025: 4.3%)

 

Balance sheet - 31 March 2026 compared to 31 December 2025

 ●    Loans and advances to customers at amortised cost increased £1.3bn to
      £217.8bn, primarily driven by growth in mortgages
 ●    Customer deposits at amortised cost decreased by £0.7bn to £243.9bn, driven
      by seasonality. The loan: deposit ratio remained broadly stable at 95%
      (December 2025: 94%)
 ●    RWAs increased to £87.5bn (December 2025: £85.8bn), primarily due to growth
      in mortgages lending

UKCB delivered a RoTE of 19.9% (Q125: 17.1%), as increased income from higher
average deposit and lending balances, and positive operating jaws were
partially offset by higher RWAs to support future growth ambitions.

 

Income statement - Q126 compared to Q125

 ●    Profit before tax increased 32% to £273m
 ●    Total income increased 10% to £530m, NII increased 15% to £394m, driven by

      benefit. Net fee, commission, trading and other income was broadly stable at
      £136m
 ●    Total operating expenses decreased 2% to £254m, reflecting a reduction in UK
      regulatory levies to £15m (Q125: £24m). Operating costs increased 2% to
      £239m, reflecting higher investment spend to support business growth
      ambitions, with ongoing efficiency savings offsetting inflationary headwinds
 ●    Credit impairment charges were £3m (Q125: £19m), reflecting strong
      underlying credit performance and limited single name charges

 

Balance sheet - 31 March 2026 compared to 31 December 2025

      (December 2025: £30.0bn), reflecting the strategic focus to grow lending

      stable
 ●    RWAs increased to £27.3bn (December 2025: £26.5bn), reflecting higher client
      lending limits and growth in lending balances

a lower credit impairment release.

 

Income statement - Q126 compared to Q125

      offset by efficiency savings

Income statement - Q126 compared to Q125

 ●    Profit before tax decreased to £1,622m (Q125: £1,710m)
 ●    IB has a diverse income profile across businesses and geographies. The 7%
      appreciation of average GBP against USD adversely impacted income and profits,
      and positively impacted credit impairment charges and total operating expenses
 ●    Total income increased 4% to £4,028m, including the adverse impact of
      strengthening average GBP against USD
      -                            Global Markets income increased  6% to £2,832m, driven by increased income

                                   -                                        International Corporate Bank (ICB) income decreased 22% to £442m. Transaction

 ●    Total operating expenses were broadly stable at £2,127m, driven by efficiency
      savings, offset by higher performance costs
 ●    Credit impairment charges increased to £279m (Q125: £72m), primarily driven
      by a single name charge of £228m. The tariff related adjustment from Q125 of
      £35m² was released, due to the lack of tariff-driven credit deterioration
      and losses. However, geopolitical uncertainty persists and is reflected
      through a management adjustment of £52m² to capture increased downside risk.

 

Balance sheet - 31 March 2026 compared to 31 December 2025

 ●    Loans and advances at amortised cost increased to £136.5bn (December 2025:
      £130.3bn), driven by increased lending across Global Markets and Banking
 ●    Cash collateral and settlement balances increased to £189.2bn (December 2025:
      £121.6bn), primarily driven by seasonality and higher client activity during
      a period of elevated volatility
 ●    Financial assets at fair value through the income statement increased to
      £215.6bn (December 2025: £183.6bn), driven by an increase in activity as we
      continue to support clients through a range of environments
 ●    Derivative financial instrument assets increased to £285.4bn (December 2025:
      £251.5bn) and liabilities increased to £272.6bn (December 2025: £240.6bn),
      primarily driven by the strengthening of spot USD against GBP in Q126 and
      elevated volatility
 ●    RWAs increased to £201.7bn (December 2025: £196.7bn), mainly driven by
      higher activity in Global Markets as we continued to support clients through a
      range of environments

USCB delivered a RoTE of 18.8% (Q125: 4.5%), reflecting continued operational
progress, with increased income from business growth and higher net interest
margin, positive operating jaws, and lower credit impairment charges.

 

Income statement - Q126 compared to Q125

 ●    Profit before tax increased to £236m (Q125: £55m)
 ●    The 7% appreciation of average GBP against USD adversely impacted income and
      profits, and positively impacted credit impairment charges and total operating
      expenses
 ●    Total income increased 14% to £983m, driven by organic business growth, the
      acquisition of the General Motors co-branded cards portfolio (GM portfolio)
      and increased purchase activity, partially offset by the strengthening of
      average GBP against USD. NII increased 21% to £823m with a net interest
      margin (NIM) of 12.76% (Q125: 10.53%), including business growth and repricing
      initiatives. Net fee, commission and other income decreased 14% to £160m
      driven by the Q425 partner reward updates, partially offset by purchases and
      fee growth
 ●    Total operating expenses decreased 7% to £380m, reflecting the strengthening
      of average GBP against USD, as business growth and inflationary headwinds were
      broadly offset by lower partner related expenses and ongoing efficiency
      savings
 ●    Credit impairment charges decreased to £367m (Q125: £399m), reflecting
      stable underlying credit performance. The tariff related management adjustment
      from Q125 of £36m was released, due to the lack of tariff-driven credit
      deterioration and losses. However, geopolitical uncertainty persists and is
      reflected through holding back a £29m release arising from the Q126
      macroeconomic scenario. US cards 30 and 90 day arrears rates(1) were 3.1%
      (Q125: 3.0%) and 1.7% (Q125: 1.6%) respectively. The USCB total coverage ratio
      was 11.5% (December 2025: 11.1%)

 

Balance sheet - 31 March 2026 compared to 31 December 2025

 ●    Loans and advances to customers at amortised cost were broadly stable at
      £21.0bn (December 2025: £21.1bn)
 ●    Deposits at amortised cost increased to £25.0bn (December 2025: £24.2bn),
      with growth in retail savings which is in line with USCB's ambition to grow
      core deposits
 ●    RWAs were broadly stable at £27.6bn (December 2025: £27.4bn)

Structural hedge

The Group employs a structural hedge programme designed to stabilise NIM on
fixed rate non-maturity balance sheet items that are behaviourally stable. As
interest rates move, such balances would otherwise drive material income
volatility where there is a re-pricing mismatch with floating rate assets.

 

The structural hedge predominantly covers non-interest-bearing current
accounts and the fixed portion of instant access savings accounts as well as
equity, which are invested into either floating rate customer assets or
balances at central banks, creating an exposure to changes in interest rates.
The structural hedge is executed via a portfolio of receive-fixed, pay
variable interest rate swaps, with an amortising structure so that a small
portion matures and is reinvested each month at prevailing market rates. The
pay-floating leg of the interest rate swaps nets down a proportion of the
receive-floating income from the customer assets, leaving a receive-fixed
income stream from the structural hedge.

 

The purpose of the structural hedge is to smooth the Group NII through time.
The floating leg of the swap will re-price immediately, whereas the fixed rate
yield on the portfolio reprices gradually, as a portion of the swap portfolio
matures and the roll is re-invested onto new market rates.

 

When interest rates are higher than our structural hedge yield, the
pay-floating rate will typically be higher than our average receive-fixed
rate. In this scenario, when viewed in isolation, the structural hedge will be
a net drag to Group NII. When floating rates are lower than our structural
hedge yield, the hedge in isolation will be a net benefit.

 

Since the receive-fixed swaps are booked for a specific term, an element of
NII is 'locked in'. The income stabilising feature of the structural hedge
provides greater net interest income certainty through the interest rate
cycle.

 

The structural hedge is one component of a larger portfolio of interest rate
risk management activities that includes non-structural hedging (e.g.
pay-fixed and receive-variable flows for asset hedging), and other offsetting
flows. The net risk of these positions is executed externally through interest
rate swaps and managed for accounting risk (i.e. income volatility arising
from the accounting mismatch of swaps at fair value through profit and loss
and underlying hedged items at amortised cost) within the cash flow hedging
reserve.

 

Overall the Group has external derivatives designated as cash flow hedges that
hedge interest rate risk with a notional £120.9bn (December 2025: £114.6bn)
which reflects the structural hedge notional of £241.8bn (December 2025:
£236.1bn) netted with non-structural hedging positions of £120.9bn (December
2025: £121.5bn). The majority of these interest rate swaps are cleared with
Central Clearing Counterparties and margined daily with an average structural
hedge duration of c3.5 years.

 

Gross structural hedge contributions in Q126 were £1,660m (Q125: £1,335m).
Gross structural hedge contributions represent the absolute interest income
earned on the fixed legs of the swaps in the structural hedge as the floating
leg is offset by the base rate funding of the deposits.

 

Credit Risk

 

Loans and advances at amortised cost by geography

 

Total loans and advances at amortised cost in the credit risk section includes
loans and advances at amortised cost to banks and loans and advances at
amortised cost to customers.

 

The table below presents a product and geographical breakdown of loans and
advances at amortised cost and the impairment allowance by stage; and includes
purchased or originated credit-impaired (POCI) balances. POCI balances
represent a fixed pool of assets purchased at a deep discount to face value
reflecting credit losses incurred from the point of origination to date of
acquisition. The table also presents stage allocation of debt securities and
off-balance sheet loan commitments and financial guarantee contracts.

 

The impairment allowance under IFRS 9 considers both the drawn and the undrawn
counterparty exposure. For retail portfolios, the total impairment allowance
is allocated to gross loans and advances to the extent allowance does not
exceed the drawn exposure and any excess is reported on the liabilities side
of the balance sheet as a provision. For wholesale portfolios, impairment
allowance on undrawn exposure is reported on the liability side of the balance
sheet as a provision.

Measurement uncertainty

 

Scenarios used to calculate the Group's modelled ECL charge were refreshed in
Q126, with the Baseline scenario reflecting the latest consensus macroeconomic
forecasts available at the time of the scenario refresh which predated the
most recent geopolitical escalation. However, the assessment of ECL includes
continued use of management judgement in overlaying modelled outcomes to
capture risks not fully reflected in forward‑looking macroeconomic
assumptions.

 

The Baseline scenario continues to reflect the rapidly changing trade policies
of the US administration and ongoing geopolitical uncertainty. Global growth
slows modestly as rising US tariffs and retaliatory measures disrupt trade
flows, dampen business confidence, and weigh on investment, though domestic
demand in advanced economies remains resilient. UK and US GDP growth in 2026
is expected to be 1.0% and 2.4%, respectively. Tariff-induced and supply side
pressures cause headline inflation to remain stickier in the near term. Labour
markets in major economies soften slightly amid increased uncertainty and
slower export-orientated activity; however, the weakening is contained and
does not rise significantly from current levels. UK and US quarterly
unemployment rates peak at 5.2% and 4.5%, respectively.

 

The Downside scenarios have been calibrated to capture an escalation of trade
tensions, where tariffs imposed by the US prompt retaliation from its trading
partners with adverse implications for consumer prices and investment
sentiment, and ongoing geopolitical uncertainty. The combination of trade
impact and consumer uncertainty triggers a sharp recession, not only in the US
but also in the UK and Europe driven by a severe decline in exports, business
sentiment and with investment and consumption plans being put on hold. The
rapid fall in external demand and a retrenchment in business investment push
up unemployment rates, where job losses are concentrated in trade-exposed
sectors but also spill into services. The Federal Reserve initially holds
rates steady, weighing the inflation shock against the deteriorating real
economy. However, as the slowdown deepens and the labour market loosens, the
Federal Reserve cuts rates swiftly to stimulate aggregate demand.

 

In the Upside scenarios, a rise in labour force participation and higher
productivity contribute to accelerated economic growth, without creating new
inflationary pressures. Central banks lower interest rates stimulating private
consumption and investment growth. Demand for labour increases and
unemployment rates stabilise and start falling again. As geopolitical tensions
ease, low inflation supports consumer purchasing power and contributes further
to healthy GDP growth.

 

The methodology for estimating scenario weights involves simulating a range of
future paths for UK and US GDP using historical data with the five scenarios
mapped against the distribution of these future paths. The small increase in
Upside weights is driven by improvement in UK and US GDP outlook. in the
Baseline scenario, bringing the Baseline scenario closer to the Upside
scenarios. For further details see page 31.

 

The refreshed scenarios predate the most recent geopolitical escalation, and
so may not reflect the potential associated near-term impacts including supply
chain disruption, higher energy prices and rising inflation. In response,
management adjustments of £101m have been introduced, partially offset by the
release of £81m tariff-related adjustments raised in Q125, resulting in a net
additional charge of £20m.

 

 ●    Within Barclays UK, a £10m adjustment has been recognised in the Retail
      credit cards portfolio, reflecting a marginally weaker UK unemployment
      baseline than that assumed in the Q126 macroeconomic scenario.
 ●    For USCB, the tariff-related adjustment from Q125 of £31m(1) was released due
      to the lack of tariff-driven credit deterioration and losses. However,
      uncertainty persists and has been reflected through holding back a £25m(1)
      release arising from the Q126 macroeconomic scenario.
 ●    In IB, the tariff-related adjustment from Q125 of £50m (£35m net of SRT(2)
      credit protection) was released due to the lack of tariff-driven credit
      deterioration and losses. However, geopolitical uncertainty persists and has
      been reflected through a management adjustment of £66m (£52m net of SRT(2)
      credit protection) to capture increased downside risk.

 

The following tables show the key macroeconomic variables used in the five
scenarios (5-year annual paths) and the weights applied to each scenario.

    tariff-related adjustment from Q125 and a £4m adjustment from the Q126

Treasury and Capital Risk

 

Regulatory minimum requirements

 

Capital

 

As at 31 March 2026, the Group's Overall Capital Requirement for CET1,
excluding any applicable PRA buffer, was 12.2% and comprised a 4.5% Pillar 1
minimum, a 2.5% Capital Conservation Buffer (CCB), a 1.5% Global Systemically
Important Institution (G-SII) buffer, a 2.7% Pillar 2A requirement and a 1.0%
Countercyclical Capital Buffer (CCyB).

 

The Group's CCyB is based on the buffer rate applicable for each jurisdiction
in which the Group has exposures. The buffer rates set by other national
authorities for non-UK exposures are not currently material.

 

The Group's Pillar 2A requirement is 4.8% with at least 56.25% to be met with
CET1 capital, equating to 2.7% of RWAs. The Pillar 2A requirement, based on a
point in time assessment, has been set as a proportion of RWAs and is subject
to at least annual review.

 

The Group's CET1 target ratio of 13-14% takes into account minimum capital
requirements and applicable buffers. The Group remains above its minimum
capital regulatory requirements and applicable buffers.

 

Leverage

 

As at 31 March 2026, the Group was subject to a UK leverage ratio requirement
of 4.1%. This comprised the 3.25% minimum requirement, a G-SII additional
leverage ratio buffer (G-SII ALRB) of 0.53% and a countercyclical leverage
ratio buffer (CCLB) of 0.3%. The Group is also required to disclose an average
UK leverage ratio which is based on capital on the last day of each month in
the quarter and an exposure measure for each day in the quarter.

 

MREL

 

As at 31 March 2026, the Group was required to meet the higher of: (i) two
times the sum of 8% Pillar 1 and 4.8% Pillar 2A equating to 25.5% of RWAs; and
(ii) 6.75% of leverage exposures. CET1 capital cannot be counted towards both
MREL and the buffers, meaning that the buffers, including any applicable
confidential institution-specific Prudential Regulation Authority (PRA)
buffer, will effectively be applied above MREL requirements.

 

Significant regulatory updates in the period

 

In January 2026, the PRA confirmed the final implementation timetable for the
UK Basel 3.1 framework. The PRA's final rules reaffirm that Basel 3.1 will
be implemented from 1 January 2027.

 

The PRA also confirmed its approach to the Fundamental Review of the Trading
Book (FRTB), under which implementation of the Internal Models Approach (IMA)
will be deferred to 1 January 2028, while all other FRTB components will
take effect from 1 January 2027.

 1  Although the leverage ratio is expressed in terms of T1 capital, the leverage
    ratio buffers and 75% of the minimum requirement must be covered solely with
    CET1 capital. The CET1 capital held against the 0.53% G-SII ALRB was £7.0bn
    and against the 0.3% CCLB was £4.0bn.

 

 ●    The UK leverage ratio decreased to 4.8% (December 2025: 5.1%) as the leverage
      exposure increased by £74.0bn to £1,321.3bn (December 2025: £1,247.3bn).
      The increase in leverage exposure was primarily driven by higher activity in
      Global Markets.

Appendix: Non-IFRS Performance Measures

 

The Group's management believes that the non-IFRS performance measures
included in this document provide valuable information to the readers of the
financial statements, as they enable the reader to identify a more consistent
basis for comparing the businesses' performance between financial periods, and
provide more detail concerning the elements of performance which the managers
of these businesses are most directly able to influence or are relevant for an
assessment of the Group. They also reflect an important aspect of the way in
which operating targets are defined and performance is monitored by
management.

However, any non-IFRS performance measures in this document are not a
substitute for IFRS measures and readers should consider the IFRS measures as
well.
