Bank of Åland Plc STOCK EXCHANGE RELEASE 2.8.2010 09.00 hrs
Interim Report for the period January - June 2010
The report period in brief
Ålandsbanken Sverige AB was consolidated for the first time on March 31, 2009,
which means that the company's balance sheet was included in the Bank of Åland
Group, while its earnings for Q1 2009 were not. During Q2 2009, the Bank of
Åland Group recognised EUR 23.1 M in negative goodwill as income. Consolidated
earnings and financial ratios for the first half of 2010 are thus not comparable
to the corresponding data for the first half of 2009.
•Consolidated net operating profit excluding negative goodwill decreased by 17
per cent to 4.2 million euros (January-June 2009: EUR 5.1 M).
•Net interest income increased by 4 per cent to EUR 19.9 M (19.2)
•Commission income increased by 58 per cent to EUR 20.6 M(13.0)
•Total income increased by 15 per cent to EUR 48.9 M (42.4)
•Expenses rose by 27 per cent to EUR 44.7 M (35.3)
•Impairment losses on loans amounted to EUR 0.1 M (2.2)
•Lending volume increased by 5 per cent to EUR 2,549 M (June 2009: 2,428)
•Deposits increased by 4 per cent to EUR 2,492 M (June 2009: 2,401)
•Managed assets increa sed by 51 per cent to EUR 3,585 M (2,377)
•Earnings per share amounted to EUR 0.17 (2.23)
•The total capital ratio in compliance with Basel 2 amounted to 12.4 per cent
(12.7)
•Compared to the second quarter of 2009, consolidated net operating profit
(excluding negative goodwill) amounted to EUR 2.1 M (April-June 2009: -1.2)
•Taking into consideration that the Group's earnings in 2009 included a
sizeable non-recurring income item, earnings in 2010 are expected to be
substantially lower than in 2009
•The Group's operational earnings, excluding non-recurring income, are expected
to be at least at the same level as in 2009
Earnings and profitability
This Interim Report has been prepared in compliance with the International
Financial Reporting Standards (IFRSs) that have been adopted by the European
Union, as well as with International Accounting Standard (IAS) 34, “Interim
Financial Reporting”.
Earnings summary for the report period
The consolidated earnings of the Bank of Åland Group during the first half of
2010 were characterised by a clear improvement in income from asset management
and private banking operations, while low market interest rates and depressed
deposit margins continued to pull down net interest income in traditional
banking operations. The Bank of Åland Group's managed assets showed very good
growth, while lending and deposit volume increased moderately. Crosskey Banking
Solutions Ab Ltd's operations expanded during the period, contributing to higher
“Other operating income”. During the period, the operations of Ålandsbanken
Sverige AB were loss-making, even though managed assets showed positive growth.
During January-June 2010, the consolidated net operating profit of the Bank of
Åland Group decreased by 17 per cent to EUR 4.2 M (Jan-Jun 2009: 5.1). During
the second quarter of 2009, the Group recognised negative goodwill of EUR 23.1 M
as income, due to its purchase of Kaupthing Bank Sverige AB.
Income excluding negative goodwill increased by 15 per cent to EUR 48.9 M
(42.4), while expenses rose by 27 per cent to EUR 44.7 M (35.3). Return on
equity after taxes (ROE) decreased to 3.0 (35.0) per cent, and earnings per
share to EUR 0.17 (2.23).
The loss at Ålandsbanken Sverige AB during the report period totalled EUR 5.9 M.
The subsidiary group Ålandsbanken Sverige AB was consolidated in the Bank of
Åland Group for the first time on March 31, 2009. This meant that the company
was included in the statement of financial position, while earnings for the
first half of 2009 did not include e ffects generated in Ålandsbanken Sverige AB
during the first quarter of 2009. This affects comparability between the
periods. The allocation between the Group's Finnish and Swedish business areas
can be found in the table entitled “Earnings, newly acquired operations” on page
9.
Net interest income
During the report period, consolidated net interest income increased by 4 per
cent to EUR 19.9 M (19.2). Ålandsbanken Sverige AB had net interest income of
EUR 4.1 M. Rising margins and higher lending volume had a positive impact, while
shrinking deposit margins and higher refinancing costs depressed the Group's net
interest income. Lending volume rose by 5 per cent to EUR 2,549 M (2,428).
Deposit volume increased by 4 per cent to EUR 2,492 M (2,401).
Other income
Commission income rose by 58 per cent to EUR 20.6 M (13.0). The Group's focus on
private banking and the good stock market trend increased income from securities
and mutual funds as well as asset management. Commission income at Ålandsbanken
Sverige AB amounted to EUR 8.0 M (3.3).
Net income from securities trading for the Bank's own account was EUR 0.2 M
(2.9). Net income from dealing in the foreign exchan ge market decreased to EUR
0.9 M (1.1). Net income from financial assets available for sale was EUR 0.9 M
(0.1), and net income from investment properties increased to 0.6 M (0.2). Other
operating income increased to EUR 9.0 M (7.3) as a consequence of higher income
from the sale and development of information technology (IT) systems.
The Group's total income, excluding negative goodwill, increased by 15 percent
to EUR 48.9 M (42.4).
Expenses
Staff costs rose by 32 per cent to EUR 26.4 M (20.0) as a consequence of the
acquisition of Ålandsbanken Sverige AB, employee recruitments at Crosskey
Banking Solutions Ab Ltd plus salary hikes as provided by collective agreements.
Staff costs at Ålandsbanken Sverige AB amounted to EUR 9.2 M (4.4). Changes in
the Bank's pension fund, Ålandsbanken Abp:s Pensionsstiftelse, according to the
corridor approach reduced staff costs by EUR 0.2 M (0.0).
Other administrative expenses (office, marketing, communications and IT)
increased to EUR 8.8 M (7.5). Production for own use totalled EUR 2.2 M (0.3)
and was related to expenses for computer software, which in accordance with
IFRSs must be capitalised. Depreciation/amortisation increased to EUR 3.6 M
(3.2). Other operating expenses amounted to EUR 8.1 M (5.1), of whic h EUR 3.8 M
arose at Ålandsbanken Sverige AB.
The Group's total expenses rose by 27 per cent to EUR 44.7 M (35.3).
Impairment losses on loans and other commitments
Impairment losses on loans amounted to EUR 0.1 M (0.2). All of these were
individually targeted impairment losses.

(excluding negative goodwill) rose to EUR 2.1 M (Q2 2009: -1.2). Including
negative goodwill, net operating profit in the second quarter of 2009 was EUR
22.0 M.
Income
Total income (excluding negative goodwill) increased by 15 per cent to EUR 25.4
M (22.1). Net interest income rose by 1 per cent to EUR 10.2 M (10.1), due to
higher deposit and lending volume.
Commission income improved, amounting to EUR 11.5 M (8.1). Commission income on
mutual funds, securities and asset management improved during the period. Net
income from securities trading and foreign exchange operations decreased to EUR
-0.9 M (0.8). Other operating income increased to EUR 4.8 M (3.9) as a
c onsequence of higher income from IT operations.
Expenses
Total expenses increased by 9 per cent to EUR 23.4 M (21.5). During the quarter,
staff costs amounted to EUR 13.6 M (12.3). Other administrative expenses
increased to EUR 4.9 M (4.6) during the second quarter, primarily because of
higher external computer expenses. Due to increased property rents, other
operating expenses rose to EUR 4.4 M (3.0).

Capital adequacy
The Group is reporting capital adequacy in accordance with Pillar 1 in the Basel
2 regulations. The Group's total capital ratio at the end of June 2010 was 12.4
per cent. The capital requirement for credit risks has been calculated according
to the standardised approach, and the capital requirement for operational risks
according to the basic indicator approach in the Basel 2 regulations. Risk
manag ement under Pillar 2 will be reported in the Annual Report for 2009.
The Bank of Åland will endeavour to begin applying an Internal Ratings Based
(IRB) approach in compliance with Basel 2 to calculate its capital adequacy
requirement for credit risk, starting on January 1, 2011. An application
requesting approval for the use of Basel 2's Internal Ratings Based (IRB)
approach for calculating the capital adequacy requirement for credit risk was
submitted to the Finnish Financial Supervision Authority during the report
period.
Our assessment, according to the current regulations, is that this will
substantially improve the Bank of Åland's capital adequacy.

Changes in group structure
On May 31, 2010, the Bank of Åland Plc acquired the minority interest in
Ålandsbanken Equities Ab. After this transaction, the Bank owns 100 per cent of
Ålandsbanken Equities Ab. A process has been initiated to merge Ålandsbanken
Equities Ab with the Bank of Åland Plc, and this merger is expected to be
completed during 2010.
Important events after the close of the report period
The Bank of Åland Plc's issue of debenture loan 2/2010 was completed on July 19,
2010. This debenture loan issue totalled EUR 20 M.
Outlook for 2010
Most observers expect a continued gradual recovery in the general economy and in
the financial system during 2010, but the economic situation will remain
uncertain and there is thus great sensitivity.
The Bank of Åland carried out an organisational change after completing the
co-determination negotiations that were initiated on March 12, 2010.
The aim of the reorganisation is to streamline the Bank's administrative
functions by introducing Group-wide corporate and support units. Meanwhile the
Bank is continuing to shift the focus of its operations increasingly to
investment services, as part of its strategy of being a bank for investors that
has financing financing know-how in exp ansive markets.
The co-determination negotiations, which were completed on May 25, 2010, dealt
with a need to reduce the number of positions by about 24 people. The
negotiations achieved their aims without dismissals, by means of reassignments,
early retirements and voluntary redundancy packages. A review was made of the
cost structure at Ålandsbanken Sverige AB for the purpose of increasing
efficiency while continuing to offer customers the same capacity and service.
The Executive Team has identified potential efficiency improvements equivalent
to an annual cost reduction of about EUR 3 M, of which half the potential is
found at Ålandsbanken Sverige AB. This cost reduction is expected to achieve its
full effect from the turn of the year. Nonrecurring costs associated with these
measures are expected to total about EUR 0.5 M during 2010.
The Group's assessment of the outlook for 2010 is based on its assumptions about
future developments in the fixed income and financial markets. However, general
interest rates, the demand for lending, the trend of the capital and financial
markets and the competitive situation, as well as the general economic situation
are factors that the Group cannot influence.
Based on this assessment and taking into account that the Group's earnings in
2009 included sizeable non-recurring income attributable to negative goodwill
from the acquisition of Kaupthing Bank Sverige AB, earnings in 2010 are expected
to be substantially lower than in 2009. The Group's operational earnings,
excluding nonrecurring income, are expected to be at least at the same level as
in 2009.
Interim reports will be published as follows during 2010.
