FY 2017 to FY 2016 Comparison
In FY 2017, net interest income grew by 23.2% YoY to GEL 604.0 million (GEL
493.3 million without the Bank Republic estimated contribution effect),
resulting from a 34.9% higher interest income and 55.8% higher interest
expense.
Without the Bank Republic estimated contribution effect, the interest income
increased by GEL 142.0 million, or 19.5% YoY, mainly driven by a higher
interest income from loans to customers by GEL 114.3 million, or 17.5%. This
is primarily related to the 26.2% gross loan portfolio increase. A rise in
interest income from investment securities (comprising both investment
securities available for sale and bonds carried at amortized cost) of GEL 13.5
million, or 25.1%, also contributed to the overall increase in loan portfolio.
That in turn was driven by the significant rise in the respective portfolio.
In addition, net interest income from due from other banks grew by GEL 7.7
million, which was also determined by the large increase in respective
portfolio.
In FY 2017 the Bank Republic effect mainly contributed a GEL 152.0 million, or
16.5% to the interest income from loans and advances to customers, which
totalled GEL 1,033.9 million, and GEL 8.7 million, or 11.5%, to interest
income from investment securities, which amounted to GEL 76.1 million. As a
result, the overall Bank Republic estimated contribution effect was GEL 163.3
million, or 15.8%, to the interest income.
Loan yields declined over the same period from 13.4% to 12.1%. The drop was
driven by a decrease in rates on FC-denominated loans, from 10.4% to 9.1%, as
well as by decline in GEL-denominated loans rates from 19.0% to 16.9% broadly
in line with the overall market trend. The decline of yields on investment
securities, from 8.6% to 7.8%, over the same period is related to a lower
average refinance rate in the country in FY 2017 compared to FY 2016. As a
result, the yields on average interest earning assets dropped from 12.2% in FY
2016 to 11.1% in FY 2017.
In the reporting period, without the Bank Republic estimated contribution
effect, interest expense increased by GEL 115.3 million, or 44.0% YoY. The
rise was mainly due to a higher interest expense on due to customer accounts
by GEL 61.2 million, or 41.6%, and due to credit institutions by GEL 54.9
million or 69.8%. The growth in interest expense on both customer accounts and
on due to credit institutions was driven by the large increase in respective
portfolios related to the overall business growth.
The Bank Republic estimated contribution effect added GEL 25.4 million, or
10.9%, to the interest expense on customer accounts, which amounted to GEL
233.9 million in FY 2017, and GEL 23.5 million or 15.0% to interest expense on
interest expense due to credit institutions, which amounted to GEL 157.1
million. As a result, the overall Bank Republic contribution effect was a GEL
52.5 million, or 12.2%, to the interest expense.
The cost of deposits increased slightly by 0.1pp to 3.4% in FY 2017 and in the
same period the cost of borrowing dropped to 6.5%, from 7.0% in FY 2016. This
was mainly due to the 1.2 pp decrease in rates on Lari-denominated borrowings
and the 0.2 pp decrease in rates on FC-denominated borrowings. As a result,
the cost of funding ratio remained flat at 4.5%.
Consequently, NIM was 6.5% in FY 2017, compared to underlying NIM of 7.6% in
FY 2016 (or reported NIM of 7.8%)

FY 2017 to FY 2016 Comparison
In FY 2017, net fee and commission income totalled GEL 126.0 million, marking
an increase of GEL 35.7 million, or 39.5%, compared to FY 2016. The rise
resulted mainly from a GEL 14.7 million, or 39.0%, gain in net fee and
commission income from settlement transactions; a GEL 10.0 million, or 38.0%,
increase in net card operations; a GEL 2.7 million, or 25.5%, rise in net cash
transactions, and a GEL 2.4 million, or 22.2%, increase in net guarantees. The
Bank Republic estimated contribution was GEL 6.9 million, or 5.5%, in the net
fee and commission income.
Net fee and commission income from card operations expanded due to increase in
number of active cards by 36% YoY, as well as a rise in number of POS
terminals by 12% YoY. Net Fee and commission income from settlement
transactions increased mainly due to increased commission income from money
transfers by 40% and increased volume of settlement transactions by 44% for
one of the subsidiaries, TBC Pay.

FY 2017 to FY 2016 Comparison
In FY 2017 total other operating non-interest income and gross insurance
profit increased by GEL 30.7 million, or by 30.6%, YoY to GEL 131.0 million in
FY 2017. This increase was mainly driven by a GEL 23.7 million or 35.0% rise
in net gains less losses from trading in foreign currencies and foreign
exchange translations mainly driven by increased trade volume and Bank
Republic contribution. Another large contributor to the increase in other
operating non-interest income and gross insurance profit is a GEL 6.5 million
increase in gross insurance profit from our subsidiary- TBC Insurance, which
was acquired in October 2016. As a result, the group's consolidated figures
include contribution from TBC Insurance only in the 4Q 2016, while it has been
consolidated on a full year basis in 2017.
During 2017, we have significantly increased number of customers to around
277,000 from only 3,000, which in turn led to high increase in gross written
premium which amounted to GEL12.2 million in 2017 on a standalone basis. As
a result, market share 14 (#_ftn14) increased to 13% from 3.5% establishing
TBC Insurance as the third largest player on market. More information about
TBC insurance can be found in annex 20 on page 55.
The growth is also due to a GEL 1.7 million increase in gain from the sale of
investment properties as well as GEL 5.2 gain in the "other" subsection of
other operating income. The latter is mainly attributable to GEL 2.6 million
reimbursed taxes; a GEL 2.9 million related to fair value adjustment of
previously acquired portfolio due to a better than expected performance, and a
GEL 2.1 million related to expense sharing programme by our partner payment
technology companies. The rise across these items was largely offset by a GEL
8.8 million drop in net gains less losses from disposal of investment
securities available for sale due to one-off gain from sale of investment
security in 2Q 2016. The Bank Republic's estimated contribution in total other
operating non-interest income was GEL 22.8 million or 17.4%, out of which GEL
14.1 million was related to gains less losses from trading in foreign
currencies and foreign exchange translations.

Assets
As of 31 December 2017, TBC Bank's total assets amounted to GEL 12,965.9
million, up by GEL 2,196.9 million, or 20.4%, YoY. This was mainly due to the
increase in gross loans to customers by the GEL 1,194.5 million, or 16.2%. In
addition, the YoY rise resulted from a GEL 303.8 million, or 37.8%, increase
in financial securities, a GEL 486.3 million or 51.5% increase in cash and
cash equivalents, a GEL 52.9 million, or 16.8% increase in premises and

FY 2017 to FY 2016 Comparison
In FY 2017, net interest income grew by 23.2% YoY to GEL 604.0 million (GEL 493.3 million without the Bank Republic
estimated contribution effect), resulting from a 34.9% higher interest income and 55.8% higher interest expense.
Without the Bank Republic estimated contribution effect, the interest income increased by GEL 142.0 million, or 19.5% YoY,
mainly driven by a higher interest income from loans to customers by GEL 114.3 million, or 17.5%. This is primarily related
to the 26.2% gross loan portfolio increase. A rise in interest income from investment securities (comprising both
investment securities available for sale and bonds carried at amortized cost) of GEL 13.5 million, or 25.1%, also
contributed to the overall increase in loan portfolio. That in turn was driven by the significant rise in the respective
portfolio. In addition, net interest income from due from other banks grew by GEL 7.7 million, which was also determined by
the large increase in respective portfolio.
In FY 2017 the Bank Republic effect mainly contributed a GEL 152.0 million, or 16.5% to the interest income from loans and
advances to customers, which totalled GEL 1,033.9 million, and GEL 8.7 million, or 11.5%, to interest income from
investment securities, which amounted to GEL 76.1 million. As a result, the overall Bank Republic estimated contribution
effect was GEL 163.3 million, or 15.8%, to the interest income.
Loan yields declined over the same period from 13.4% to 12.1%. The drop was driven by a decrease in rates on FC-denominated
loans, from 10.4% to 9.1%, as well as by decline in GEL-denominated loans rates from 19.0% to 16.9% broadly in line with
the overall market trend. The decline of yields on investment securities, from 8.6% to 7.8%, over the same period is
related to a lower average refinance rate in the country in FY 2017 compared to FY 2016. As a result, the yields on average
interest earning assets dropped from 12.2% in FY 2016 to 11.1% in FY 2017.
In the reporting period, without the Bank Republic estimated contribution effect, interest expense increased by GEL 115.3
million, or 44.0% YoY. The rise was mainly due to a higher interest expense on due to customer accounts by GEL 61.2
million, or 41.6%, and due to credit institutions by GEL 54.9 million or 69.8%. The growth in interest expense on both
customer accounts and on due to credit institutions was driven by the large increase in respective portfolios related to
the overall business growth.
The Bank Republic estimated contribution effect added GEL 25.4 million, or 10.9%, to the interest expense on customer
accounts, which amounted to GEL 233.9 million in FY 2017, and GEL 23.5 million or 15.0% to interest expense on interest
expense due to credit institutions, which amounted to GEL 157.1 million. As a result, the overall Bank Republic
contribution effect was a GEL 52.5 million, or 12.2%, to the interest expense.
The cost of deposits increased slightly by 0.1pp to 3.4% in FY 2017 and in the same period the cost of borrowing dropped to
6.5%, from 7.0% in FY 2016. This was mainly due to the 1.2 pp decrease in rates on Lari-denominated borrowings and the 0.2
pp decrease in rates on FC-denominated borrowings. As a result, the cost of funding ratio remained flat at 4.5%.
Consequently, NIM was 6.5% in FY 2017, compared to underlying NIM of 7.6% in FY 2016 (or reported NIM of 7.8%)

FY 2017 to FY 2016 Comparison
In FY 2017, net fee and commission income totalled GEL 126.0 million, marking an increase of GEL 35.7 million, or 39.5%,
compared to FY 2016. The rise resulted mainly from a GEL 14.7 million, or 39.0%, gain in net fee and commission income from
settlement transactions; a GEL 10.0 million, or 38.0%, increase in net card operations; a GEL 2.7 million, or 25.5%, rise
in net cash transactions, and a GEL 2.4 million, or 22.2%, increase in net guarantees. The Bank Republic estimated
contribution was GEL 6.9 million, or 5.5%, in the net fee and commission income.
Net fee and commission income from card operations expanded due to increase in number of active cards by 36% YoY, as well
as a rise in number of POS terminals by 12% YoY. Net Fee and commission income from settlement transactions increased
mainly due to increased commission income from money transfers by 40% and increased volume of settlement transactions by
44% for one of the subsidiaries, TBC Pay.
