Highlights
Results and business activity
The BBVA Group generated a net attributable profit of €4,994m in the first half of 2024, again driven by the performance of recurring revenues of the banking business. Thus, the net interest income grew at a year-on-year rate of 13.9% and net fees and commissions by 32.1%. These results represent an increase of 28.8% compared to the same period of the previous year, 37.2% excluding the impact of the evolution of currencies.
Accumulated results at the end of the first half of 2024 include the recording of the total estimated annual amount of the temporary tax on credit institutions and financial credit institutions for €285m, included in the other operating income and expenses line of the income statement.
Operating expenses increased by 19.5% at Group level at constant exchange rates, affected by an environment of still high inflation in the countries where the Group has a presence, the growth of the workforce in most of them and the higher level of investments, in line with those made in recent years. Thanks to the remarkable growth in gross income (+30.5%, in constant terms), greater than the growth in operating expenses, the efficiency ratio stood at 39.3% as of June 30, 2024, with an improvement of 362 basis points, in constant terms, compared to the ratio recorded 12 months earlier, in constant terms.
The provisions for impairment on financial assets increased (+42.8% in year-on-year terms and at constant exchange rates), with higher requirements linked to the growth in retail products, the most profitable in line with the Group´s strategy.
Loans and advances to customers recorded an increase of 4.3% compared to the end of December 2023, particularly driven by the evolution of corporate loans (+5.1% at Group level), and by the positive performance of loans of all segments to individuals.
Customer funds increased by 5.9% compared to the end of the previous year. This favorable performance was due to the growth in both deposits from customers, which increased by 4.2%, as well as in the evolution of off-balance sheet funds, that shows a greater dynamism and grew by 10.1%.

Business areas
According to the accumulated results of the business areas at the end of the first half of 2024 and excluding the effect of currencies fluctuation in those areas where it has an impact, in each of them it is worth mentioning:
–Spain generated a net attributable profit of €1,790m, that is 47.8% higher than in the same period of the previous year, mainly supported by the favorable evolution of every line item of the gross income. These solid results include the negative impact of €285m due to the recording of the estimated annual amount of the temporary tax on credit institutions and financial credit institutions.
–BBVA Mexico achieved a cumulative net attributable profit of €2,858m, representing an increase of 3.3% compared to the same period of the previous year, mainly due to the strength of the recurring income from the banking business.
–Turkey generated a net attributable profit of €351m, with an improvement in the contribution to the Group's results in the second quarter of the year.
–South America generated a cumulative net attributable profit of €317m, which represents a year-on-year increase of 99.7%, driven by the good performance of recurring income and the net trading income (hereinafter, NTI).
–Rest of Business achieved an accumulated net attributable profit of €235m, 8.3% higher than in the same period of the previous year, favored by the performance of the net interest income and the NTI.
The Corporate Center recorded a net attributable loss of €-557m, which is an improvement compared with the €-1,039m recorded in the same period of the previous year, mainly due to the evolution of the NTI.

Lastly, and for a broader understanding of the Group's activity and results, supplementary information is provided below for the wholesale business, Corporate & Investment Banking (CIB), carried out by BBVA in the countries where it operates. CIB generated a net attributable profit of €1,396m. These results represent an increase of 23.9% on a year-on-year basis and reflect the contribution of the diversification of products and geographical areas, as well as the progress of the Group's wholesale businesses in its strategy, leveraged on globality and sustainability, with the purpose of being relevant to its clients.

Channeling sustainable business

SUSTAINABLE BUSINESS BREAKDOWN (PERCENTAGE OF THE AMOUNT CHANNELED 2018-JUNE 2024)

(1) In those cases where it is not feasible or sufficient information is not available to allow an exact distribution between the categories of climate change and inclusive growth, internal estimates are made based on the available information.
(2) Also includes Natural Capital.
(3) Primarily includes products whose funds are used for activities considered sustainable (according to both internal and market standards, existing regulations and best practices), products granted to clients considered sustainable taking into account their revenues from sustainable activities (in accordance with existing regulations and/or internal standards) or in line with company-level certifications of recognized prestige in the market, as well as sustainability linked products (according to both internal and market standards and best practices), such as those linked to environmental and/or social indicators.
(4) Bonds (green, social, sustainability or sustainability-linked) in which BBVA acts as bookrunner.
(5) Investment products art.8 or 9 under Sustainable Finance Disclosure Regulation (SFDR) or similar criteria outside the EU managed, intermediated or marketed by BBVA. "Other" includes deposits under the Sustainable Transaction Banking Framework until its replacement by the CIB Sustainable Products Framework (both Frameworks published on the bank's website), insurance policies related to energy efficiency and inclusive growth and electric vehicle autorenting, mainly.
(6) Includes the activity of the BBVA Microfinance Foundation (BBVAMF), which is not part of the consolidated Group and which has channeled around €8.4 billion in the period from 2018 to June 2024 to support vulnerable entrepreneurs with microcredits.
Regarding the objective of channeling €300 billion between 2018 and 2025 2 as part of the sustainability strategy, the BBVA Group has channeled an approximate total of €252 billion in sustainable business between 2018 and June 2024, of which approximately 77% corresponds to the area of promoting the fight against climate change and the remaining 23% to promote inclusive growth. The amount channeled includes financing, intermediation, investment, off-balance sheet and insurance transactions. These operations have contractual maturity or redemption dates, so the above mentioned accumulated figure does not represent the amount reflected on the balance sheet.
During the first half of 2024, around €46 billion was channeled, of which around €26 billion corresponds to the second quarter of 2024, a new quarterly record for the Group. This channeling of the first half of 2024 represents an increase of around 37% compared to the same half of 2023.
Of the amount channeled in the first half of 2024, around €5.3 billion corresponds to retail business, representing a growth of 12% compared with the same period of the previous year. During the second quarter, around €2.8 billion was channeled. BBVA has continued to promote customized digital solutions aimed at the mass consumer market, offering retail customers a vision of the potential savings they can obtain by adopting energy-saving measures in their homes and transportation. During the second quarter
2 For the purposes of the Goal 2025, channeling is considered to be any mobilization of financial flows, cumulatively, in relation with activities, clients or products considered to be sustainable or promoting sustainability in accordance with internal standards inspired by existing regulations, market standards such as the Green Bond Principles, the Social Bond Principles and the Sustainability Linked Bond Principles of the International Capital Markets Association, as well as the Green Loan Principles, Social Loan Principles and the Sustainability Linked Loan Principles of the Loan Market Association, existing regulations, and best market practices. The foregoing is understood without prejudice to the fact that said mobilization, both at an initial stage or at a later time, may not be registered on the balance sheet. To determine the financial flows channeled to sustainable business, internal criteria is used based on both internal and external information, either from public sources, provided by customers or by a third party (mainly data providers and independent experts).

Relevant advances in the field of sustainability
•Intermediate emission reduction targets for 2030 3
Following the publication of its interim 2030 emissions reduction targets for the aviation and shipping sectors at the end of 2023, and following the defined roadmap, BBVA published in May 2024 interim 2030 funded emissions reduction targets for two additional sectors: aluminum and real estate (both commercial and residential)4.
In the case of aluminum, BBVA has set its target to align its financing portfolio with the decarbonization trajectory determined by the International Aluminum Institute (IAI) to reduce global emissions by 28% by 2030. This means achieving a percentage deviation of 0% or less from this decarbonization path by 2030.
In the case of the BBVA Group's real estate portfolio, different targets have been set for the Commercial Real Estate segment, where the objective is to reduce the intensity of its financing portfolio by 44% between 2023 and 2030, and for the Residential Real Estate segment, with a reduction target for that period of 30%5.
•Issuance of a biodiversity bond
In May 2024, BBVA Colombia and the International Finance Corporation (IFC) have announced the issuance of a biodiversity bond. BBVA Colombia will issue the bond of up to $70 million and the proceeds will be used to finance projects focused on reforestation, regeneration of natural forests on degraded lands, mangrove conservation or rehabilitation, climate-smart agriculture, and wildlife habitat restoration, among others.
3 The achievement and progressive progress of the decarbonization targets will depend to a large extent on the actions of third parties, such as customers, governments and other stakeholders, and may therefore be materially affected by such actions, or lack thereof, as well as by other exogenous factors that do not depend on BBVA (including, but not limited to, new technological and regulatory developments, military conflicts, the evolution of climate and energy crises, etc.). Consequently, these objectives may be subject to future revisions.
4 The geographic scope of the intermediate 2030 emission reduction target for the real estate sector is Spain.
5 BBVA has established its targets following the CRREM (Carbon Risk Real Estate Monitor) methodology, which defines a metric in terms of emissions intensity (Kg CO 2 e per square meter per year).

Macroeconomic environment
Economic growth, in general, has been stronger than expected and inflation has stopped its downward trend in recent months. Although restrictive monetary conditions continue to affect the economy through traditional channels, their effects on the dynamics of activity and prices have been partially offset by factors such as the expansionary tone of fiscal policy, the dynamism of the services sector and the still high liquidity.
Despite the recent resilience, according to BBVA Research, it is most likely that further moderation in demand paves the way for relatively low global GDP growth and a slowdown in inflation from its current levels over the coming months. Specifically, global growth would reduce from 3.3% in 2023 to 3.1% in 2024, a sightly higher forecast than previous one (+3.0%). In the United States, growth is expected to continue soften, but better than expected data in recent months supports an upward revision of the GDP growth forecast for 2024 to 2.2%, 30 basis points above the previous forecast and 30 basis points below the growth recorded in 2023. In the Eurozone, the growth forecast for 2024 remains unchanged at 0.7%; activity would continue to recover gradually after remaining practically stagnant for much of 2023, when GDP grew just 0.5%. In China, despite the dynamism of the first months of the year, a series of structural factors are expected to continue to weigh negatively and GDP is expected to grow 4.6% in 2024 with no change compared to the previous forecast and below the growth observed in 2023 (+5.2%).
In this context of moderate growth and prospects for a further slowdown of inflation, the ECB has decided to cut its interest rates by 25 basis points in June, to 3.75% of deposit facility rates, and it is expected that the Fed will begin soon its cycle of easing monetary conditions. Benchmark interest rates would be reduced, according to BBVA Research forecasts, to around 5.0% in the United States and 3.25% in the Eurozone, after two cuts of 25 basis points in each geographic area during the second half of 2024. Interest rates are expected to continue falling throughout 2025. However, they are expected to remain relatively high, above the levels before the coronavirus pandemic, due to potential inflationary pressures caused by the geopolitical factors, such as the war in Ukraine and the armed conflict in Middle East, and to other factors like protectionist policies, an expansionary fiscal stance and climatic shocks. Indeed, these factors, as well as the current political context in the United States and Europe, increase the uncertainty about the evolution of the global economy and the risk of having a higher inflation and interest rates than expected as of the date of publication of this report.

Group
Quarterly evolution of results
The results obtained by the BBVA Group in the second quarter of 2024 stood at 2,794 million euros, 27.0% above the previous quarter, with the following trends standing out:
–Favorable evolution of recurring income, with Turkey´s performance standing out.
–Excellent performance of NTI, due to the exchange rate hedges of the Corporate Center.
–Favorable evolution of the other operating income and expenses line, mainly explained by a lower hyperinflation adjustment in Argentina, and by the temporary tax on credit institutions and financial credit institutions, recorded in the first quarter of the year 2024.
–Increase of operating expenses and in impairment on financial assets, in line with the growth strategy in the most profitable segments.

Unless expressly indicated otherwise, for a better understanding of the changes under the main headings of the Group's income statement, the rates of change provided below refer to constant exchange rates. When comparing two dates or periods in this report, the impact of changes in the exchange rates against the euro of the currencies of the countries in which BBVA operates is sometimes excluded, assuming that exchange rates remain constant. For this purpose, the average exchange rate of the currency of each geographical area of the most recent period is used for both periods, except for those countries whose economies have been considered hyperinflationary, for which the closing exchange rate of the most recent period is used.
The accumulated net interest income as of June 30, 2024 was higher than in the same period of the previous year (+20.3%), with increases in all business areas except for Turkey, as a result of the dynamism that lending activity has shown during the first half of the year. The good evolution in South America and Spain is noteworthy.
Positive evolution in the net fees and commissions line, which increased by 35.4% in year-on-year terms due to the favorable performance in payment systems and, to a lesser extent, asset management. The contribution of Turkey and, to a lesser extent, of Mexico stand out in this line.
6 In compliance with Law 38/2022, of December 27, which establishes the obligation to pay a patrimonial benefit of a public and non-taxable nature during the years 2023 and 2024 for credit institutions that operate in Spanish territory whose sum of total interest income and fee and commission income corresponding to the year 2019 is equal to or greater than €800m.

NET INTEREST INCOME / AVERAGE TOTAL ASSETS (PERCENTAGE AT CONSTANT EXCHANGE RATES)

NET INTEREST INCOME PLUS NET FEES AND COMMISSIONS (MILLIONS OF EUROS AT CONSTANT EXCHANGE RATES)

At the end of June 2024, NTI grew by 183.0%, mainly explained by the favorable results from hedging foreign currency positions especially of the Mexican peso, recorded in the Corporate Center and, to a lesser extent, by the positive performance of this line in all business areas. Regarding the contribution of Global Markets, included in this line, the evolution of Spain and Mexico stands out.
The other operating income and expenses line accumulated as of June 30, 2024 a result that compares negatively with the same date of the same period of last year, mainly due to the recording in the line of a more negative adjustment for hyperinflation in Argentina in this exercise, partially offset by the lack of contribution to the European Single Resolution Fund after completion of its construction stage 7. This line also reflects the total estimated amount of the temporary tax on credit institutions and financial credit institutions for year 2024 registered in the first quarter of the year and 60 million higher than the annual amount estimated for year 2023, registered in the first quarter of that year. For its part, the results of the insurance business had a favorable evolution.

GROSS INCOME (MILLIONS OF EUROS AT CONSTANT EXCHANGE RATES)

On a year-on-year basis, the increase in operating expenses increased at the Group level stood at 19.5%, a rate that is below the inflation rates observed in the countries in which the Group operates (an average of 21.3% on average in the last 12 months 8).
Thanks to the remarkable growth in gross income (+30.5%, in constant terms), the efficiency ratio stood at 39.3% as of June 30, 2024, with an improvement of 362 basis points compared to the ratio recorded 12 months earlier.
7 The Single Resolution Fund, whose funds would be allocated to the resolution of financial entities in certain circumstances, has been increasing during a transitional period of eight years (2016-2023) with the objective of reaching at least 1% of the deposits covered by the Member States that make up the Single Resolution Mechanism at the end of 2023.

The impairment on financial assets not measured at fair value through profit or loss (impairment on financial assets) at the end of June 2024 was 42.8% higher than in the same period of the previous year, with higher requirements linked to the growth in retail products, the most profitable in line with the Group´s strategy. All business areas required greater loan-loss provisions, highlighting Mexico and South America.

IMPAIRMENT ON FINANCIAL ASSETS (MILLIONS OF EUROS AT CONSTANT EXCHANGE RATES)

The provisions or reversal of provisions line (hereinafter, provisions) registered at the end of June 30, 2024 lower provisions compared to the same period of the previous year, mainly originated in Turkey.
On the other hand, the other gains (losses) line ended June 2024 with a balance of €71m, which compares favorably with the result of the previous year when collecting the positive impact of the evaluation of real state in Turkey and the reversal of impairments for investments in associates, recorded in Corporate Center.
As a result of the above, the BBVA Group generated a net attributable profit of €4,994m between January and June of the year 2024, which compares very positively with the result of the same period of the previous year (+37.2%). These solid results are supported by the favorable evolution of the banking business recurring income, which offsets the higher operating expenses and the increase in provisions for impairment losses on financial assets.

Balance sheet and business activity
The most relevant aspects related to the evolution of the Group's balance sheet and business activity as of June 30, 2024 are summarized below:
–Loans and advances to customers recorded an increase of 4.3% compared to the end of December 2023, particularly driven by the evolution of corporate loans (+5.1% at Group level), and by the positive performance of loans of all segments to individuals, especially consumer loans and credit cards, that together grew by 4.9%.
–Customer funds increased by 5.9% compared to the end of 2023. This favorable performance was due to the growth in both deposits from customers, which increased by 4.2% due to both the positive evolution of time deposits in most of the business areas, especially Rest of Business and Turkey, and to the increase in off-balance sheet funds, which grew by 10.1%, outstanding the good performance in Mexico and Spain.

Capital and shareholders
Capital base
The CET1 fully loaded ratio of the BBVA Group stood at 12.75% as of June 30, 2024, which allows maintaining a large management buffer over the Group's CET1 requirement as of that date (9.11%9), and which is also above the Group's target management range of 11.5 - 12.0% CET1.
During the second quarter, the Group’s CET1 fully loaded decreased by 7 basis points with respect to the March level (12.82%).
The strong earnings generation during the second quarter, higher than in the first quarter, net of shareholder remuneration and payment of capital instruments (CoCos), generated a positive contribution of +34 basis points to CET1 ratio, which, together with the offsetting in equity of the negative effect in results of value loss of the net monetary position in hyperinflationary economies, made it possible to absorb the growth of risk-weighted assets (RWA) derived from the organic growth of activity in constant terms (consumption of -40 basis points), in line with the Group's strategy of continuing to promote profitable growth.
Among the remaining impacts, in addition to the one referred to from hyperinflationary economies, it is worth highlighting those associated with market variables, which drained -23 basis points of the ratio, where the negative evolution in the quarter due to the evolution of the main currencies (highlighting the impact of the evolution of the Mexican peso), and, to a lesser extent, the valuation of fixed income portfolios stand out.

Quarterly evolution of the CET1 fully-loaded ratio

(1) Includes, among others, FX and mark to market of HTC&S portfolios, minority interests, and a positive impact in OCI equivalent to the Net Monetary Position value loss in hyperinflationary economies registered in results.

The AT1 fully loaded ratio showed an increase of +19 basis points compared to March 31, 2024. In this period, BBVA S.A completed an issuance for an amount of €750 million Contingent Convertible instruments (CoCos) in June 2024.
The Tier 2 fully loaded ratio has not experienced a significant variation (-2 basis points in the quarter), only impacted by the growth of RWA.
As a consequence of the foregoing, the consolidated fully loaded total capital ratio stood at 16.77% as of June 30, 2024, above the total capital requirements (13.27%).

On March 27, 2024 the Group made public that it had received a communication from the Bank of Spain regarding its MREL 22.79%12. In addition, BBVA must reach, also as from March 27, 2024, a volume of own funds and eligible liabilities in terms of total exposure considered for purposes of calculating the leverage ratio of 8.48% (the “MREL in LR”)13. These requirements do not include the current combined capital requirement, which, according to current regulations and supervisory criteria, is 3.62%14. Given the structure of the resolution group's own funds and eligible liabilities, as of June 30, 2024, the Group meets the aforementioned requirements.
Likewise, with the aim of reinforcing compliance with these requirements, BBVA has made several debt issuances during the first half of 2024. For more information on these issuances, see "Structural risks" section within the "Risk management" chapter.
Shareholder remuneration
Regarding shareholder remuneration, as approved by the General Shareholders´ Meeting on March 15, 2024, in its first item on the agenda, on April 10, 2024, a cash payment of €0.39 gross per each outstanding BBVA share entitled to receive such amount was made against the 2023 results, as an additional shareholder remuneration for the financial year 2023. Thus, the total amount of cash distributions for 2023, taking into account the €0.16 gross per share that was distributed in October 2023, amounted to €0.55 gross per share.
Total shareholder remuneration includes, in addition to the cash payments mentioned above, the remuneration resulting from BBVA's buyback program for the repurchase of own shares announced on January 30, 2024 for a maximum amount of €781m, and which started being executed on March 1, 2024. BBVA announced the completion of the share buyback program upon reaching the maximum monetary amount, having acquired 74,654,915 own shares, between March 4 and April 9, 2024, representing, approximately, 1.28% of BBVA's share capital as of such date. On May 24, 2024, BBVA notified through an Other Relevant Information notice a partial execution of the share capital reduction resolution adopted by the Annual General Shareholders’ Meeting of BBVA held on March 15, 2024, under item 3 of the agenda through the reduction of BBVA’s share capital in a nominal amount of €36,580,908.35 and the consequent redemption, charged to unrestricted reserves, of 74,654,915 own shares of €0.49 par value each acquired derivatively by BBVA in execution of the own share buyback program scheme and which were held as treasury shares.

Ratings
During the first half of 2024, BBVA’s rating has continued to demonstrate its strength and all agencies have maintained their rating in the A category. In March, Moody´s changed its long-term outlook on the senior preferred debt from stable to positive (maintaining its rating in A3) after a similar action on the Spanish Sovereign rating and reflecting the expectations of the agency that the profitability levels of the bank will continue being high and that the pressures on the quality of assets will remain contained. Also, in March, DBRS communicated the result of its annual revision of BBVA confirming the rating in A (high) with a stable outlook. Additionally, S&P reviewed BBVA´s rating and outlook unchanged in June (A, stable), and for its part, Fitch have maintained without changes BBVA´s rating and outlook (A-, stable), during the first six months of the year. The following table shows the credit ratings and outlooks assigned by the agencies:

Risk management
Credit risk
Uncertainty within the macroeconomic environment remains high, and the geopolitical turbulence at the time of preparation of this report could increase the biases towards more negative scenarios, with higher than expected interest rates, and more persistent inflation, which can affect credit demand and hinder the payment capacity of families and business.
For the estimation of expected losses, the models include individual and collective estimates, taking into account the macroeconomic forecasts in accordance with IFRS 9. Thus, the estimate at the end of the first half of 2024 includes the effect on expected losses of updating macroeconomic forecasts, which take into account the current global environment. Additionally, the Group may complement the expected losses either by considering additional risk drivers, or by incorporating sectorial particularities or those that may affect a set of operations or borrowers, following a formal internal process established for the purpose.
By region, the evolution during the first half of the year has been uneven. In Spain, growth forecasts for 2024 have been revised upwards, and the household debt levels are far from the historical highs, whereas in Mexico, less dynamism in activity is observed while we await a gradual cycle of monetary policy normalization. The uncertainty in Turkey continues, although growth remains solid. Despite changes in economic policy, asset quality indicators for the system remain at limited levels. Finally, South America is moving towards macroeconomic normalization, with inflation gradually approaching the established goals and growth converging towards its potential levels.
BBVA Group's credit risk indicators
The evolution of the Group’s main credit risk indicators is summarized below:
–Credit risk increased in the first half of the year by 1.6% (+3.5% in constant terms), with generalized growth at constant exchange rates in all geographical areas.
–Non-performing loans decreased by -1.8% at the Group level between the end of March and June 2024, favored by the evolution of the exchange rate (+0.1% in constant terms), and leveraged in Spain, which has been favored by the execution of portfolio sales in June, and to a lesser extent, by the evolution of Rest of Business, mainly due to the recovery of a specific client. On the contrary, increases in constant terms in the rest of the geographical areas, where growth was concentrated in retail portfolios.

NON-PERFORMING LOANS AND PROVISIONS (MILLIONS OF EUROS)

–The NPL ratio decreased with respect to the previous quarter, standing at 3.3% at June 30, 2024, favored by the growth of the portfolio and the evolution of the non-performing loans mentioned above.
–The NPL coverage ratio ended the quarter at 75%, at similar levels compared to the previous quarter, with decreases in Spain, Turkey, South America, and increases in Mexico and Rest of Business.
–The cumulative cost of risk as of June 30, 2024 stood at 1.42%, which is above the previous quarter, yet in line with the expectations and associated with the growth in profitable portfolios. By business areas, Spain and South America showed stability, Turkey was at normalized levels and Mexico has been affected by the requirements of the retail portfolios.

Structural risks
Liquidity and funding
Liquidity and funding management at BBVA promotes the financing of the recurring growth of the banking business at suitable maturities and costs using a wide range of funding sources. BBVA's business model, risk appetite framework and funding strategy are designed to reach a solid funding structure based on stable customer deposits, mainly retail (granular). As a result of this model, deposits have a high degree of assurance in each geographical area, close to 55% in Spain and Mexico. It is important to note that, given the nature of BBVA's business, lending is mainly financed through stable customer funds.
One of the key elements in the BBVA Group's liquidity and funding management is the maintenance of large high-quality liquidity buffers in all geographical areas. In this respect, the Group has maintained during the last 12 months an average volume of high-quality liquid assets (HQLA) of €132.7 billion, of which 97% corresponded to maximum quality assets (level 1 in the liquidity coverage ratio, LCR).
Due to its subsidiary-based management model, BBVA is one of the few major European banks that follows the Multiple Point of Entry (MPE) resolution strategy: the parent company sets the liquidity policies, but the subsidiaries are self-sufficient and responsible for managing their own liquidity and funding (taking deposits or accessing the market with their own rating). This strategy limits the spread of a liquidity crisis among the Group's different areas and ensures the adequate transmission of the cost of liquidity and financing to the price formation process.
The BBVA Group maintains a solid liquidity position in every geographical area in which it operates, with ratios well above the minimum required:
–The LCR requires banks to maintain a volume of high-quality liquid assets sufficient to withstand liquidity stress for 30 days. BBVA Group's consolidated LCR remained comfortably above 100% during the first half of 2024 and stood at 148% as of June 30, 2024. It should be noted that, given the MPE nature of BBVA, this ratio limits the numerator of the LCR for subsidiaries of BBVA S.A. to 100% of their net outflows, therefore, the resulting ratio is below that of the individual units (the LCR of the main components was 178% in BBVA, S.A., 154% in Mexico and 162% in Turkey). Without considering this restriction, the Group's LCR ratio was 179%.
–The net stable funding ratio (NSFR) requires banks to maintain a stable funding profile in relation to the composition of their assets and off-balance sheet activities. The BBVA Group's NSFR ratio stood at 129% as of June 30, 2024.
The breakdown of these ratios in the main geographical areas in which the Group operates is shown below:

LCR AND NSFR RATIOS (PERCENTAGE. 30-06-24)
| BBVA, S.A. | Mexico | Turkey | South America
LCR | 178% | 154% | 162% | All countries >100
NSFR | 121% | 133% | 161% | All countries >100

In addition to the above, the most relevant aspects related to the main geographical areas are the following:
–BBVA, S.A. has maintained a strong position with a large high-quality liquidity buffer, having repaid the entire TLTRO III program, maintaining at all times the regulatory liquidity metrics well above the set minimums. During the first half of 2024, commercial activity has been broadly neutral in terms of liquidity, with growth in both customer deposits and lending activity.
–BBVA Mexico shows a solid liquidity situation, even though the credit gap increased in the first half of the year as a consequence of the outflows of deposits and strong dynamism of credit growth. Despite that, the cost of funds has been efficiently managed.
–In Turkey, in the first half of 2024, the lending gap in local currency remained stable (however, the performance by quarter has been very different, with an increase in the gap in the first quarter and a reduction in the second one). Regarding the credit gap in foreign currency, an increase was recorded, mainly originated by the outflow of deposits during the fist half of the year due to dedollarization. Liquidity buffer has been reduced, mainly due to the increase in the currency gap and the reserve requirement. Garanti BBVA continues to maintain a stable liquidity position with comfortable ratios. On the other hand, the Central Bank of Turkey has continued updating the measures to continue with the dedollarization process of the economy and control the inflation.
–In South America, the liquidity situation remains adequate throughout the region. In BBVA Argentina, the growth of excess liquidity slowed thanks to the increase loans in the quarter, which has equaled the growth of deposits. However, in the second half of the year, the growth in deposits exceeded the loans in local currency and with small differences in foreign currency. In BBVA Colombia, the credit gap decreased in the first half of the year with a growth in deposits much higher than loans. BBVA Peru has shown a decrease in lending gap in the first half of 2024 with a growth in deposits higher than loans.

| AT1 (CoCo) | Jun-24 | 750 | EUR | 6.875% | Dec-30 to Jun-31 | Perpetual

Additionally, BBVA, S.A. redeemed two capital issuances in the first half of 2024: in February 2024, a Tier 2 issuance of subordinated bonds issued in February 2019, for an amount of €750m and, in March 2024, an AT1 issued in 2019 on its first date of optional redemption, for an amount of €1 billion.
BBVA Mexico issued in January 2024 Tier 2 bonds for USD 900m with a maturity of 15 years and an early repayment option in 10 years with a coupon of 8.125%. Additionally, on April 10 2024, BBVA Mexico issued bank stock certificates for 15 billion Mexican pesos in two tranches. The first one was placed at a term of three and a half years, with a variable TIIE rate (Interbank Equilibrium Interest Rate) for one-day Funding plus 32 basis points, amounting to a total of 8.4 billion Mexican pesos. The second tranche was issued for seven years, with a fixed rate of 10.35%, for a total of 6.6 billion Mexican pesos.
In Turkey, Garanti BBVA issued in February 2024 Tier 2 10-year bonds for an amount of USD 500m, with a coupon of 8.375% and an early redemption option in 5 years. Additionally, in June 2024, Garanti BBVA renewed the total syndicated loan based on environmental, social and governance (ESG) criteria, which consists of two separate tranches of USD 241m (SOFR+2.5%) and €179m (Euribor+2.25%), respectively.
For its part, BBVA Peru issued Tier 2 bonds in the international market for USD 300m, with a 6.20% coupon, a 10.25-year maturity and an early redemption option in the fifth year.
BBVA Colombia, together with the International Finance Corporation (IFC) and the Inter-American Development Bank (IDB) announced the launch of a green biodiversity bond for an amount of up to USD 70m and a term of 3 years. On 12 July 2024, thereunder a first tranche of USD 15m was announced. For more information, see the Sustainability section at the beginning of this report.
In conclusion, the first half of 2024 has turned into one of the historically more actives in terms of issuance of wholesale funding of BBVA, S.A., with €8 billion funded in 8 tranches. If we also consider the issuance activity of BBVA Mexico, BBVA Turkey and BBVA Peru, this access to international markets increases by USD 1.7 billion, which shows the strength of the Group´s access to wholesale markets from its main issuance units.
Foreign exchange
Foreign exchange risk management aims to reduce both the sensitivity of the capital ratios and the net attributable profit variability to currency fluctuations.
The performance of the Group's main currencies during the first half of 2024 has been uneven. Due to its relevance for the Group, it should be noted the evolution of the Mexican peso, which has depreciated 4.3% against the euro due to the results of the June 2024 presidential elections. According to the Chilean peso, the Argentine peso and the Colombian peso registered depreciations of 4.0%, 8.5% and 5.1% respectively, with respect to the euro. Regarding the Turkish lira, this currency accumulates a depreciation of 7.2% which is much lower than the carry-trade of the currency.
The USD and the Peruvian sol registered an appreciation of 3.2% and 0.5% respectively, regards to the euro.

⁽¹⁾ According to IAS 21 "The effects of changes in foreign exchange rates", the year-end exchange rate is used for the conversion of the Turkey and Argentina income statement.

In relation to the hedging of the capital ratios, BBVA covers, in aggregate, 70% of its subsidiaries' capital excess. The sensitivity of the Group's CET1 fully-loaded ratio to 10% depreciations in major currencies is estimated at: +18 basis points for the U.S. dollar, -10 basis points for the Mexican peso and -6 basis points for the Turkish lira 15. With regard to the hedging of results, BBVA hedges between 40% and 50% of the aggregate net attributable profit it expects to generate in the next 12 months. For each currency, the final amount hedged depends on its expected future evolution, the costs and the relevance of the incomes related to the Group's results as a whole.
Interest rate
Interest rate risk management seeks to limit the impact that BBVA may suffer, both in terms of net interest income (short-term) and economic value (long-term), from adverse movements in the interest rate curves in the various currencies in which the Group operates. BBVA carries out this work through an internal procedure, pursuant to the guidelines established by the European Banking Authority (EBA), with the aim of analyzing the potential impact that could derive from a range of scenarios on the Group's different balance sheets.
The model is based on assumptions intended to realistically mimic the behavior of the balance sheet. The assumptions regarding the behavior of accounts with no explicit maturity and prepayment estimates are specially relevant. These assumptions are reviewed and adapted at least once a year according to the evolution in observed behaviors.
At the aggregate level, BBVA continues to have a positive sensitivity toward interest rate increases in the net interest income.
In the first half of 2024, inflation were more persistent than expected. This has caused the market to reduce its interest rate expectations for 2024 in Europe and in the United States and to expect the first rate fall from the Fed towards the fall, while the ECB began its reduction cycle in June. The above, together with some geopolitical uncertainties, has triggered a rise in sovereign bond yields and has led to a negative performance in most debt portfolios of the Group. For their part, peripheral rate curve spreads remain well supported, even slightly narrowing in the first half of the year, although they have suffered some volatility due to the political situation in France. In Mexico, the central bank cut for the first time in three years the official interest rate, in line with the monetary policy actions of most South American countries, where by end-2023 interest rate cuts had begun, which have continued during the first half of 2024. In Turkey, the Central Bank of Turkey has continued the tightening of its monetary policy launched in June 2023.
By area, the main features are:
–Spain has a balance sheet characterized by a lending portfolio with high proportion of variable-rate loans (mortgages and corporate lending) and liabilities composed mainly by customer demand deposits. The ALCO portfolio acts as a management lever and hedge for the balance sheet, mitigating its sensitivity to interest rate fluctuations. In an environment of high rates, the exposure of the net interest income to movements in balance sheet interest rates has been reduced in the last quarters.
On the other hand, at its June meeting the ECB carried out the first reduction, by 25 basis points, in official interest rates, after nine months in which interest rates had remained unchanged. Thus by the end of June, the reference interest rate stood at 4.25%, the marginal deposit facility rate at 3.75% and the marginal loan facility rate at 4.50%. Additionally, the ECB announced in March the changes on its operative framework, highlighting that, from September on, the spread between the benchmark interest rate and that of the deposit facility will be reduced to 15 basis points, and in June it confirmed that it will reduce holdings of securities acquired under the Pandemic Emergency Purchase Program (PEPP) in the second half of the year, expecting to end reinvestments at the end of 2024.
–Mexico continues to show a balance between fixed and variable interest rates balances, which results in a limited sensitivity to interest rates fluctuations. In terms of assets that are most sensitive to interest rate changes, the commercial portfolio stood out, while consumer loans and mortgages are mostly at a fixed rate. With regard to customer funds, the high proportion of non-interest bearing deposits, which are insensitive to interest rate movements, should be highlighted. The ALCO portfolio is invested primarily in fixed-rate sovereign bonds with limited maturities. The monetary policy rate stood at 11.00% at the end of the first half of 2024, 25 basis points below the end-of-year level of 2023.
–In Turkey, the sensitivity of deposits is offset by the ALCO portfolio and loans (fixed rate and relatively short-term). The sensitivity of the net interest income remains very limited thanks to the different efforts carried out by the Bank. The CBRT
15 This sensitivity does not include the cost of capital hedges, which are currently estimated at 3 basis points per quarter for Mexican peso and 1 basic point per quarter for Turkish lira.

has recently increased monetary policy rates, taking interest rates from 15.0% by the end of June 2023 to 50.0% by the end of June 2024, unchanged since March 2024.
–In South America, the interest rate risk profile remains low as most countries in the area have a fixed/variable composition and maturities that are very similar for assets and liabilities, with limited net interest income sensitivity. In addition, the in balance sheets with several currencies, the interest rate risk is managed for each of the currencies, showing a very low level of exposure. Regarding benchmark rates, in Peru it stood at 5.75% as of June 2024, 100 basis points below its 2023 closing level. In Colombia, the interest rate was placed by the end of June 2024 in 11.25%, 175 basis points below the end of 2023. In Argentina, the central bank has made several cuts during the quarter the benchmark interest rate at 40%, which is a decrease of 60 basis points compared to the end of December 2023.

Business areas
This section presents the most relevant aspects of the Group's different business areas. Specifically, for each one of them, it shows a summary of the income statements and balance sheets, the business activity figures and the most significant ratios.
The structure of the business areas reported by the BBVA Group as of June 30, 2024, is the same as the one presented at the end of 2023.
The composition of BBVA Group's business areas is summarized below:
–Spain mainly includes the banking, insurance and asset management activities that the Group carries out in this country.
–Mexico includes banking, insurance and asset management activities in this country, as well as the activity that BBVA Mexico carries out through its agency in Houston.
–Turkey reports the activity of the group Garanti BBVA that is mainly carried out in this country and, to a lesser extent, in Romania and the Netherlands.
–South America includes banking, financial, insurance and asset management activities conducted, mainly, in Argentina, Chile, Colombia, Peru, Uruguay and Venezuela.
–Rest of Business mainly incorporates the wholesale activity carried out in Europe (excluding Spain), the United States, and BBVA’s branches in Asia.
The Corporate Center contains the centralized functions of the Group, including: the costs of the head offices with a corporate function for the Group; structural exchange rate positions management; portfolios whose management is not linked to customer relations, such as financial and industrial holdings; stakes in Funds & Investment Vehicles in tech companies; certain tax assets and liabilities; funds due to commitments to employees; goodwill and other intangible assets as well as portfolios and assets' funding. Finally, in the description of this aggregate, it is worth mentioning that the Corporate Center's tax expense includes for each period the difference between the effective tax rate in the period of each business area and the expected tax rate of the Group for the year as a whole.
In addition to these geographical breakdowns, supplementary pro forma information is provided for the wholesale business, Corporate & Investment Banking (CIB), carried out by BBVA in the countries where it operates. This business is relevant to have a broader understanding of the Group's activity and results due to the important features of the type of customers served, products offered and risks assumed, even if this is a pro forma information that does not capture the application of the hyperinflation accounting nor the wholesale business of the Group in Venezuela.
To prepare the information by business areas, which is presented under management criteria based on the financial information used in the preparation of the financial statements, the lowest level units and/or companies that make up the Group are taken and assigned to the different areas according to the main region or company group in which they carry out their activity. In regards to the information on the business areas and on the supplementary pro-forma information about CIB, in the first quarter of 2024 the Group changed its allocation criteria for certain expenses, mainly related with global international projects between the Corporate Center and the business areas (where they are currently charged). Consequently, in order to make those year-on-year comparisons homogeneous, the figures for year 2023 have been revised, which has not affected the consolidated financial information of the Group.
Regarding the shareholders' funds allocation in the business areas, a capital allocation system based on the consumed regulatory capital is used.
Finally, it should be noted that, as usual, in the case of the different business areas, that is, Mexico, Turkey, South America and Rest of Business, and, additionally, CIB, in addition to the year-on-year variations applying current exchange rates, the variations at constant exchange rates are also disclosed.

Macro and industry trends
Financial indicators continue to show dynamism in economic activity, largely due to services exports, fiscal policy, European recovery funds as well as the increase in active population caused by factors such as greater active population. In this context, BBVA Research's forecast for GDP growth in 2024 has been revised upwards from 2.1% to 2.5%, a rate identical to that recorded in 2023 and significantly higher than that forecast for the Eurozone. On the other hand, annual inflation reached 3.4% in June 2024 and it is expected to remain close to this level during the second half of the year.
As for the banking system, data at the end of May 2024 showed that the volume of credit to the private sector declined by 2.5% year-on-year. At the end of May, household and non-financial corporate loan portfolios fell by 1.0% and 2.9% year-on-year, respectively. Customer deposits increased by 7.5% year-on-year as of the end of May 2024, due to a 0.8% increase in demand deposits, and 70.4% time deposits. The NPL ratio stood at 3.6% in May 2024, practically the same as in the same month of the previous year. Furthermore, the system maintains comfortable solvency and liquidity levels.
Activity
The most relevant aspects related to the area's activity during the first half of 2024 were:
–Loan balances were higher than at the end of December (+3.0%), highlighting the growth in the commercial segment (+2.6%), public sector (+16.2%) and mortgages (+1.2%).
–Total customer funds grew in the first half (+1.4%), as a result of the performance of off-balance sheet funds (mutual and pension funds), which increased by 5.6%, mainly favored by net contributions in the first half of the year and a very positive market effect, and by the evolution of time deposits, which grew by 5.3%.
The most relevant aspects related to the area's activity during the second quarter of 2024 were:
–Growth in lending compared to the end of March (+2.4%), with good dynamics in all retail segments, as well as in the SMEs and public sector.
–Regarding credit quality, the NPL ratio decreased compared to the end of the previous quarter and stood at 3.9%, favored by the impact of portfolio sales at the end of June of non-performing loans (mostly unsecured), and with a negative effect on the NPL coverage ratio, which has reduced to 54% as of the end of June 2024.
–Total customer funds remained stable in the second quarter of the year (+0.1%, with respect to the balances at the end of March 2024), with a decrease in time deposits (-10.8%), offset by the growth of demand deposits (+1.0%) and off-balance sheet funds (+2.1%), which registered positive net contributions, as well as a very favorable market effect.
Results
Spain generated a net attributable profit of €1,790m in the first half of 2024, 47.8% higher than in the same period of the previous year, mainly supported by the favorable evolution of every line item of the gross income, especially the net interest income.
The most relevant aspects of the year-on-year changes in the area's income statement at the end of June 2024 were:
–Net interest income increased by 26.2%, mainly supported by the increase in the customer spread in a context of higher benchmark interest rates compared to the first half of 2023, as well as an effective liability management, which has kept the cost of deposits contained.
–Commissions grew by 4.7% compared to the same period of the previous year. The contribution of asset management fees, insurance and securities fees and fees related to CIB operations, with significant transactions in the first quarter of the year, were noteworthy.
–Growth in the NTI contribution (+64.3%), mainly supported by portfolio management and, to a lesser extent, by the contribution of Global Markets.
–The other operating income and expenses line includes the total annual estimated amount for the temporary tax on credit institutions and financial credit institutions for year 2024 of €285m, which is €60m higher than that registered in the same period of the previous year. The year-on-year comparison is mainly affected by the absence of contribution to the SRF in 2024.
–Operating expenses increased by 5.9%, mainly due to an increase in general expenses, as a result of inflation, especially higher IT expenses, and to a lesser extent in personnel expenses. This growth is well under the increase of the gross income (+27.4%), which allowed a very significant improvement of the efficiency ratio by 719 basis points in the last twelve months.
–Impairment on financial assets increased by 39.3%, in line with expectations, mainly due to higher recurrent flows in retail portfolios in the context of high rates. As a result of the above, the cumulative cost of risk at the end of June 2024 stood at 0.38%, remaining stable in comparison with the cumulative cost of risk at the end of March 2024.
In the second quarter of 2024, Spain generated a net attributable profit of €1,066m, which represents a growth of 47.1% compared to the previous quarter, which included the total estimated annual amount of the temporary levy on credit institutions and financial credit establishments in the other operating revenues and expenses line. Apart from the above, recurring revenues performed well, offset by a lower NTI. On the lower part of the income statement, expenses were in line with the previous quarter and provisions for impairment on financial assets increased, due to a slightly higher recurring entries in the wholesale portfolio, offset by the evolution of the provisions and other results line.

Macro and industry trends
Economic growth has lost some of its dynamism in the first half of 2024, in a context of economic slowdown in the United States, still high interest rates and slowing investment. Thus, after growing 3.2% in 2023, GDP growth will moderate to 2.5% in 2024 (unchanged from the previous forecast) and would remain supported by robust private consumption. Annual inflation rose temporarily in recent months, to 5.0% in June, but is expected to resume its downward trend soon. According to BBVA Research, inflation will close 2024 at around 4.3%. Policy rates, which stood at 11.0% in June 2024 after a cut of 25 basis points in March, are expected to continue to decrease, albeit at a slower pace than previously expected, to around 10.5% by the end of the year. In addition, following the general elections held in June, turbulence was observed in the financial markets. Although financial volatility has moderated more recently, there is still uncertainty about future public policies.
With respect to the banking system, at the end of May 2024, the volume of outstanding credit to the non-financial private sector increased by 11.4% in year-on-year terms, with a greater boost from the consumer portfolio (+19.9%), followed by mortgages (+8.2%) and loans to businesses (+9.1%). Growth in total (demand and time) deposits remains at similar levels to those of total credit, with a year-on-year growth of 9.9% at the end of April 2024, with greater dynamism in time deposits (+12.4% year-on-year) than in demand deposits (+8.6% year-on-year). The industry's non-performing loans slightly improved at around 2.25% in April 2024 and capital ratios are at comfortable levels.
Unless expressly stated otherwise, all the comments below on rates of change, for both activity and results, will be given at constant exchange rate. These rates, together with changes at current exchange rates, can be found in the attached tables of financial statements and relevant business indicators.
Activity
The most relevant aspects related to the area's activity in the first half of 2024 were:
–Lending activity (performing loans under management) grew by 6.3% between January and June 2024, with a more dynamic growth in the retail portfolio. The wholesale portfolio, which includes large companies and public sector, grew by 6.2% in the first half, with dynamism in the corporate banking segment. For its part, the retail portfolio grew at a rate of 6.4%. Within this segment, consumer loans are noteworthy, which grew by 9.4%.
–Customer deposits under management increased 4.7% in the first half of 2024, as a result of the growth of mutual funds and other off-balance sheet funds, which increased at a rate of 16.1% in the first half of 2024, thanks to the commercial boost in a highly competitive environment to attract liabilities.
The most relevant aspects related to the area's activity in the second quarter of 2024 were:
–Lending activity (performing loans under management) grew by 5.6% in the second quarter of 2024, with greater dynamism in the wholesale portfolio, which grew at a rate of 7.8% favored by the performance of the corporates segment with business strategies which favored its growth at a rate of 9.3%. For its part, the retail portfolio grew 3.9%, highlighting the increase in consumer credits (+5.0%, driven by the product "Nómina y Personales BBVA"), and to a lesser extent mortgage loans (+2.5%) and SMEs (+5.8%). As a result, the weight of the retail portfolio, which is the most profitable for BBVA Mexico, stood at 52.5% at the end of June 2024.
–With regard to the asset quality indicators, the NPL ratio stood at 2.6% at the end of June 2024, which represents a reduction of -6 basis points compared to the end of March, mainly due to the good performance of the wholesale portfolio, as a result of both improved activity and the containment of the non-performing loans. On the other hand, the NPL coverage ratio increased to 120% at the end of June 2024.
–Customer deposits under management increased by 2.8%, mainly favored by the growth of off-balance sheet funds, which increased by 5.7% in the quarter, at the expense of time deposits (-7.8%). With respect to demand deposits, they grew by 2.7%.
Results
BBVA Mexico achieved a cumulative net attributable profit of €2,858m by the end of June 2024, representing an increase of 3.3% compared to the same period of the previous year, mainly due to the strength of the recurring income from the banking business.
The most relevant aspects of the year-on-year changes in the income statement as of the end of June 2024 are summarized below:
–Net interest income increased by 6.8%, as a result of growth in lending activity.
–Net fees and commissions, boosted by greater transactions, continued to increase at double digit (+17.5%), with favorable evolution in almost all commissions types, highlighting credit cards, those derived from mutual funds management and from wholesale activity.
–The contribution from NTI increased (+18.8%) mainly as a result of the performance of Global Markets.
–The other operating income and expenses line grew by 45.7%, driven by the evolution of the insurance business.
–Operating expenses increased (+9.2%), mainly due to higher personnel expenses associated with the increase in the headcount over the course of 2023, and, to a lesser extent, the increase of general expenses, particularly technology expenditure.
–Loan-loss provisions increased (+28.6%), affected by the higher provisioning needs of the retail portfolio, mainly in consumer and credit cards, due to the growth of these profitable segments. Consequently, the cumulative cost of risk at the end of June 2024 stood at 3.34%, which represents a growth of 7 basis points compared to the one registered at the end of March 2024.

36
In the quarter, and excluding the effect of exchange rate fluctuations, BBVA Mexico generated net attributable profit of €1,422m, which represents a -1.0% variation with respect to the previous quarter. This evolution is due to lower recurrent revenues and lower NTI, offset by a better performance in the other operating income and expenses line, mainly thanks to the positive performance of the insurance business. On the lower of the income statement, there was an increase in operating expenses and higher provisions for impairment of financial assets.

Macro and industry trends
Since the general elections held in May 2023, there are increasing signs of normalization in economic policy, in general, and monetary policy in particular, which point to a gradual reversal of the current macroeconomic distortions. Thus, benchmark interest rates have increased from 8.5% at the beginning of 2023 to 50% in March 2024, and other countercyclical measures have been announced, leading to a relatively stable exchange rate and an incipient moderation in annual inflation, which reached 71.6% in June compared to 75.5% reached in May. Economic growth would moderate from 4.5% in 2023 to 3.5% in 2024 (unchanged from the previous forecasts), despite the resilience of demand which, to some extent, continues to be supported by a expansive fiscal policy. Despite the still high uncertainty, it is most likely that the expected moderation of growth and the more restrictive tone of economic policies will favor a further reduction in inflation, to around 43% by the end of 2024.
As for the Turkish banking system, the effect of inflation remains strong. Total lending in the system increased 45.6% on a year-on-year basis as of May 2024, at similar levels to the previous months. The credit stock continues to be driven by the increase of consumer finance and credit cards (+51.3% year-on-year) while credit to businesses grew slightly less (+46.7% year-on-year). Total deposits maintain their strength from the previous months and increased at the end of May by 54.6% on a year-on-year basis. The growth of Turkish lira deposits remains strong in the same month (+61.0%), while U.S. dollar deposits grew more slowly (+45.0%), The dollarization decreased to 37.5% in May 2024 versus 40.0% a year before. The system's NPL ratio has continued falling in the last months and as of May 2024 it was of 1.6% (24 basis points lower than in the same month of 2023). Capital indicators remained at more than comfortable levels on the same date.
Unless expressly stated otherwise, all comments below on rates of changes for both activity and results, will be presented at constant exchange rates. These rates, together with changes at current exchange rates, can be observed in the attached tables of the financial statements and relevant business indicators. For the conversion of these figures, the end of period exchange rate as of June 30, 2024 is used, reflecting the considerable depreciation by the Turkish lira in the last twelve months. Likewise, the Balance sheet, the Risk-Weighted Asset (RWA) and the equity are affected.
Activity 16
The most relevant aspects related to the area’s activity in the first half of 2024 were:
–Lending activity (performing loans under management) increased by 21.4% between January and June 2024, mainly driven by the growth in Turkish lira loans (+24.7%). This growth was mainly supported by the performance of credit cards and consumer loans. Foreign currency loans (in U.S. dollars) increased by 6.5%, boosted by the increase in activity with customers focused on foreign trade (with natural hedging of exchange rate risk).
–Customer deposits (72.8% of the area's total liabilities as of June 30, 2024) remained the main source of funding for the balance sheet and increased by 14.5% favored by evolution the positive performance of Turkish lira time deposits (+22.0%), which represent a 82.0% of total customer deposits in local currency. Balances deposited in foreign currency (in U.S. dollars) continued their downward path and decreased by 6.5%, with transfers from foreign currency time deposits to Turkish lira time deposits observed under a foreign exchange protection scheme. Thus, as of June 30, 2024, Turkish lira deposits accounted for 65.8% of total customer deposits in the area. For its part, off-balance sheet funds grew by 69.0%.
The most relevant aspects related to the area’s activity in the second quarter of 2024 were:
–Lending activity (performing loans under management) increased by 7.1%, mainly driven by the growth in Turkish lira loans (+7.9%, below the quarterly inflation rate) and, to a lesser extent, by the growth of foreign currency loans (+4.5%). Within loans in Turkish liras, the evolution of credit cards (+8.7%) and of consumer loans (+11.0% including auto loans) stand out.
–In terms of asset quality, the NPL ratio decreased 9 basis points from that at the end of March 2024 to 3.3%, and 45 basis points compared to the figure as of the end of December 2023, mainly as a result of the growth in activity, the sale of a retail portfolio and the positive dynamics in the wholesale portfolio in recoveries and repayments, which offset higher net entries in the retail portfolio. The NPL coverage ratio recorded a decrease of 158 basis points in the quarter to 94% as of June 30, 2024.
–Customer deposits increased by 4.7%, with a clear trend towards dedollarization thanks to the growth in Turkish lira deposits (+18.0%), which amply offset the drop in deposits in USD (-11.9%). Additionally, off-balance sheet funds had a remarkable evolution (+22.8%).
Results
Turkey generated a net attributable profit of €351m during the first half of 2024, with an improvement in the contribution to the Group's results in the second quarter of the year.
As mentioned above, the year-on-year comparison of the accumulated income statement at the end of June 2024 at current exchange rate is affected by the strong depreciation of the Turkish lira in the last year (-19.5%). Excluding this effect, the highlights of the results for the year at constant exchange rate are summarized below:
–Net interest income recorded a year-on-year fall, mainly by the decline in the Turkish lira spread and greater wholesale funding costs, partially offset by the growth in lending activity and, the remuneration of certain reserves in Turkish lira from the central bank since February 2024.
–Net fees and commissions increased significantly, favored by the performance in payment systems fees, brokerage activity, guarantees and asset management.
16 The variation rates of loans in Turkish lira and loans in foreign currency (U.S. dollars) only refer to Garanti Bank. Thus they exclude the subsidiaries of Garanti BBVA, mainly in Romania and Netherlands.

–NTI showed an excellent evolution thanks to higher results from derivatives and in foreign exchange operations.
–The other operating income and expenses line showed a balance of €-219m, which compares favorably with the previous year. This line includes, among others, the loss in the value of the net monetary position due to the country's inflation rate, together with its partial offset by the income derived from inflation-linked bonds (CPI linkers). The net impact of both effects was less negative than in the first half of 2023. It is also worth highlighting the improved performance of the results of Garanti BBVA´s subsidiaries, also included in this line.
–Operating expenses increased, mainly due to the growth in personnel expenses, linked to the growth in the workforce in 2023 and salary review in the context of high inflation. On the other hand, general expenses also increase, highlighting the higher technology expenditure.
–Regarding the impairment on financial assets, it increased due to both higher requirements in retail portfolios and to lower recoveries in the wholesale segment, which, despite continuing to be relevant in terms of credit quality and repayments improvement, have not been as high as in the first half of 2023. Thus, the cumulative cost of risk as of June 30, 2024 increased to 0.84%, a more standard level after an abnormally low level in 2023.
–The provisions and other results line closed June 2024 with a release of €82m, linked to remarkable recoveries in wholesale clients, as well as the revaluations on real estate assets.
In the second quarter of 2024, the net attributable profit of Turkey stood at €212m, which represents an increase of 44.1% at current exchange rates, with respect to the previous quarter as a result of the favorable performance of net interest income, favored by the remuneration of reserves in the central bank and the better performance of the spread in Turkish lira, as well as the evolution of fees, a less negative net impact due to hyperinflation and the aforementioned effect from the revaluation of real estate assets.

Activity and results
The most relevant aspects related to the area's activity during the first half of the year 2024 were:
–Lending activity (performing loans under management) increased by 6.8%, with the increase focused on the wholesale portfolio, which grew more than the retail portfolio (+8.4% versus +5.1%), mainly favored by the evolution of commercial loans which increased by +8.8%. In the retail portfolio, the growth of credit cards (+18.5%) and mortgage loans (+5.0%) stood out, in line with Group BBVA's strategy which is focused in growing in the most profitable segments.
–Customer funds under management increased (+11.6%) compared to the closing balances at the end of 2023, with an increase both in customer deposits (+10.4%) and off-balance sheet funds (+20.8%).
The most relevant aspects related to the area's activity during the second quarter of the year 2024 have been:
–Lending activity grew by 4.5%, with the same dynamics that explain the evolution of the semester: the dynamism of commercial loans (+5.9%), credit cards (+10.8%) and mortgage loans (+2.8%) stand out.
–With regard to asset quality, the NPL ratio at regional level stood at 5.0%, remaining practically stable with respect to the previous quarter (+4 basis points), favored by the activity evolution. In general, and excluding this effect, the trend of the last few months continues in terms of additions to non-performing loans, which remain mostly focused on the retail portfolio. For its part, the NPL coverage ratio, stood at 83%.
–Customer funds under management increased by 7.6%, supported by higher balances of time deposits (+9.9%), the increase of demand deposits (+5.4%) and, to a lesser extent, the evolution of off-balance sheet funds (+11.1%).
South America generated a cumulative net attributable profit of €317m at the end of the first half of 2024, which represents a year-on-year increase of 99.7%, driven by the good performance of recurring income (+65.9%) and the net trading income, which offset the increase in expenses and the more negative impact of "Other operating income and expenses". This line mainly includes the impact of the adjustment for hyperinflation in Argentina, whose net monetary loss stood at €1,020m in the period from January-June 2024, which is higher than the €571m registered in the period from January-June 2023.

Argentina
Macro and industry trends
The significant fiscal consolidation, relative exchange rate stability and the sharp contraction in economic activity have led to a gradual moderation of inflation in recent months. Despite the uncertainty and related risks, it is likely, according to BBVA Research, that ongoing adjustments, eventually complemented by additional measures, could set the bases for an inflation slowdown continuation along the year. On the other hand, although the sharp deterioration of economic activity could be reversed by mid-year if the adjustment plan is successful, it is expected that, after falling by 1.6% in 2023, GDP will be decrease by 4.0% in 2024 (unchanged since the last forecast).
The banking system continues to grow at a stable pace but is affected by high inflation. At the end of June 2024, total credit had grown by 211% compared to the same month in 2023, favored by both consumer and corporate portfolios above all, which reached year-on-year growth rates of 182% and 252% year-on-year, respectively. On the other hand, deposits continued the trend of the previous months and had grown by 144% year-on-year at the end of June. Finally, the NPL ratio improved significantly to 1.8% as of April 2024 (123 basis points below the level of May 2023).
Activity and results
–In the first half of 2024, performing loans under management increased by 90.9%, (+45.4% in the second quarter, with growth in all products), although still well below the year-on-year inflation rate, showing positive evolution in both the corporates portfolio (+97.9%, mainly corporates) and the households portfolio (+83.1%), highlighting in the latter the growth in credit cards (+71.1%). In the second quarter, the NPL ratio stood at 1.6%, remaining stable with respect to the previous quarter (-2 basis points in the quarter), thanks to the positive dynamic of the activity. On the other hand, the NPL coverage ratio stood at 126%, far below the end of March 2024, as a result of the increase in entries to non performing loans in the retail portfolio (mainly in credit cards and consumer).
–Balance sheet funds grew by 64.7% between January and June 2024 (+25.6% in the second quarter), with growth of both demand deposits (+44.3%) and time deposits (+122.9%). Mutual funds (off-balance resources) also had a good performance (+47.2% in the same period).
–The cumulative net attributable profit at the end of June 2024 stood at €103m. Net interest income continued to be driven by both higher activity and better customer spreads. For its part, NTI registered a positive evolution. On the other hand, there was a more negative adjustment for hyperinflation (mainly reflected in the other operating income and expenses line) and higher expenses, both in personnel due to salary revisions in a context of high inflation, and general expenses. The profit of the quarter stood at €82m, which is a significant improvement compared to the previous quarter, as a result of a less negative hyperinflation adjustment.
Colombia
Macro and industry trends
After a period of weakness in economic activity, during the year 2023 and to some extent also at the beginning of 2024, BBVA Research forecasts a recovery starting in the middle of this year. A further decrease in inflation, which reached 7.2% in June and would fall to around 5.4% in December, and in interest rates, from 11.25% in June to around 8.5% in December, would likely allow GDP growth to increase to 1.8% this year (+30 basis points above the previous forecast, mainly due to the first quarter data, which surprised upwards) from 0.6% in 2023.
Total credit growth for the banking system stood at 0.9% year-on-year in April 2024. As in previous months, system's credit continues to be driven by the growth in corporate lending and mortgages at 2.0% and 11.3% respectively. Noteworthy is the slowdown in consumer credit, which changed from a year-on-year growth rate of 20% during 2022, to year-on-year decreases since October 2023. In April 2024, consumer credit has decreased by 4.3% compared to the same month in 2023. On the other hand, total deposits showed a year-on-year growth rate of 9.9% year-on-year at the end of April 2024, with a much more balanced development in portfolios than in previous quarters. Thus, demand and time deposits grew by 8.2% and 12.0% year-on-year respectively. The NPL ratio of the system has increased slightly in recent months to 5.3% at the end of April 2024, 69 basis points higher than in the same month of 2023.
Activity and results
–Lending activity grew 1.3% compared to the end of 2023, mainly due to the favorable evolution during the second quarter of 2024 in corporate loans (+6.6%, +7.6% from December 2023) and mortgage loans (+1.4%, +1.9% from December 2023). that offset the reduction in consumer loans (-2.0%, -3.9% from December 2023). In terms of asset quality, in the second quarter, the NPL ratio stood at 5.3%, increasing compared to the previous quarter (+16 basis points), affected by the NPL entries in the retail portfolio, mainly in the consumer loans, and, to a lesser extent, in credit cards. For its part, the NPL coverage ratio reduced in the quarter to 84% due to the new NPL inflows as mentioned.
–Customer deposits increased by 4.4% compared to the end of 2023, mainly thanks to the favorable evolution of demand deposits (+5.4%, +6.9% in the second quarter).
–The cumulative net attributable profit at the end of June 2024 stood at €57m, that is 48.5% below the result of the same period of the previous year. The significant growth of the net interest income (+22.4%) stood out, favored by the increase in the customer spread accompanied by a greater volume of deposits and a good performance of the securities portfolio, compensated by the provisions for impairment on financial assets, due to higher portfolio requirements (especially in retail). The profit of the quarter stood at €37m, 85.8% above the previous quarter, as a result of good performance of

Peru
Macro and industry trends
BBVA Research expects economic activity to continue to recover in 2024, a context of more favorable weather conditions and relatively high prices for the country's exports (particularly metals such as copper). Relatively controlled inflation (2.3% in June, and probably around this level in the second half of 2024) and the gradual reduction of interest rates (from 5.75% in June to around 5.00% in December 2024) should also favor an increase in economic dynamism in the next months. Thus, GDP is expected to grow by around 2.9% this year, 20 basis points above the previous forecast and well above the evolution observed in 2023 (-0.6%).
Total credit in the Peruvian banking system fell by 0.5% year-on-year in May 2024. Performance by portfolios is uneven, with the biggest slowdown in corporate lending, with a year-on-year contraction of 2.5%. In contrast, consumer finance remained buoyant, growing by 0.6% year-on-year as of May 2024, while the mortgage portfolio maintained a stable growth rate of around 5.4% year-on-year, in line with previous months. Total deposits in the system increased at the end of May 2024 by 4.5% year-on-year, with very similar behavior for portfolios. The demand and time deposits grew by 4.8% and 3.9% year-on-year respectively. The NPL ratio across the banking system rose very slightly to 4.5%.
Activity and results
–Lending activity increased compared to the end of December 2023 (+3.3%), mainly due to the positive evolution of corporate loans (+2.7%, favored by CIB operations, and despite the expiration of the Reactiva Perú program), and consumer loans (+5.8%) and mortgages (+5.4%). In terms of credit quality indicators, the NPL ratio increased compared to March 2024 (+12 basis points) standing at 5.8%, as a result of an almost stable activity and NPL inflows in retail portfolio, mainly SMEs, partially mitigated by portfolio sales and write-offs. On the other hand, the NPL coverage ratio stood at 77%, impacted by the increase in NPLs.
–Customers funds under management increased during the first half of 2024 (+7.2%), boosted by both the good performance of customer deposits (+5.1%) and off-balance sheet funds (+29.4%).
–BBVA Peru's net attributable profit stood at €110m at the end of June 2024, in line with the figures achieved at the end of the first half of 2023. Good performance of the net interest income, favored by the higher volume of lending and a growing customer spread, fee income and NTI (with an outstanding quarterly performance thanks to the management of the ALCO portfolios), which together offset the increase in operating expenses, leading to double-digit gross margin growth. The increase of provisions for impairment of financial assets (+55.7%) stands out negatively, with higher requirements mainly due to the impairment of the retail portfolio and at the wholesale one, due to the effect of the cancellation of a one-time customer guarantee (neutral in results as the associated provision was released). The profit of the quarter stood at €67m, which is a variation of 57.8% compared to the previous quarter, mainly as a result of the significant growth in NTI and reduction in operating expenses.

Results
CIB generated a net attributable profit of €1,396m the first half of 2024.

Alternative Performance Measures (APMs)
BBVA presents its results in accordance with the International Financial Reporting Standards (EU-IFRS). Additionally, the Group also considers that some Alternative Performance Measures (hereinafter APMs) provide useful additional financial information that should be taken into account when evaluating performance. They are considered complementary information and do not replace the financial information drafted according to the EU-IFRS. These APMs are also used when making financial, operational and planning decisions within the Entity. The Group firmly believes that they give a true and fair view of its financial information. These APMs are generally used in the financial sector as indicators for monitoring the assets, liabilities and economic and financial situation of entities.
BBVA Group's APMs are given below. They are presented in accordance with the European Securities and Markets Authority (ESMA) guidelines, published on October 5, 2015 (ESMA/2015/1415en). The guideline mentioned before is aimed at promoting the usefulness and transparency of APMs included in prospectuses or regulated information in order to protect investors in the European Union. In accordance with the indications given in the aforementioned guideline, BBVA Group's APMs:
–Include clear and readable definitions of the APMs.
–Disclose the reconciliations to the most directly reconcilable line item, subtotal or total presented in the financial statements of the corresponding period, separately identifying and explaining the material reconciling items.
–Are standard measures generally used in the financial industry, so their use provides comparability in the analysis of performance between issuers.
–Do not have greater preponderance than measures directly stemming from financial statements.
–Are accompanied by comparatives for previous periods.
–Are consistent over time.
Other considerations
When comparing two dates or periods in this report, the impact of changes in the exchange rates against the euro of the currencies of the countries in which BBVA operates is sometimes excluded, assuming that exchange rates remain constant. This is done for the amounts in the income statement by using the average exchange rate against the euro in the most recent period for each currency 18 of the geographical areas in which the Group operates, and applying it to both periods; for amounts in the balance sheet and activity, the closing exchange rates in the most recent period are used.
During the year 2023 and at the end of the first half of 2024, there were no corporate operations, non-recurring impacts or other types of adjustments for management purposes that determine an net attributable profit or a profit for the period different to those disclosed in the condensed interim Consolidated Financial Statements. For this reason, as there are no differences between the condensed Interim Consolidated Financial Statements and the consolidated management results statement, no reconciliation is presented for the periods disclosed in this report. For the same reason, the Group does not present among its Alternative Performance Measures shown below an adjusted profit for the period nor an adjusted net attributable profit, neither does it present the profitability ratios derived from them: i.e. adjusted ROE, adjusted ROTE, adjusted ROA and adjusted RORWA.
ROE
The ROE (return on equity) ratio measures the accounting return obtained on an entity's shareholders' funds plus accumulated other comprehensive income. It is calculated as follows:

Net attributable profit (loss)
Average shareholders' funds + Average accumulated other comprehensive income

Explanation of the formula: the numerator is the net attributable profit (loss) of the Group's consolidated income statement. If the metric is presented on a date before the close of the fiscal year, the numerator will be annualized.
Average shareholders' funds are the weighted moving average of the shareholders' funds at the end of each month of the period analyzed, adjusted to take into account the execution of the "Dividend-option" at the closing dates on which it was agreed to deliver this type of dividend prior to the publication of the Group´s results.
Average accumulated other comprehensive income is the moving weighted average of "Accumulated other comprehensive income", which is part of the equity on the Entity's balance sheet and is calculated in the same way as average shareholders’ funds (above).
Relevance of its use: this ratio is very commonly used not only in the banking sector but also in other sectors to measure the return obtained on shareholders' funds.
18 With the exception of those countries whose economies have been considered hyperinflationary, for which the closing exchange rate of the most recent period will be used.

ROTE
The ROTE (return on tangible equity) ratio measures the accounting return on an entity's shareholders' funds, plus accumulated other comprehensive income, and excluding intangible assets. It is calculated as follows:

Net attributable profit (loss)
Average shareholders' funds + Average accumulated other comprehensive income - Average intangible assets

Explanation of the formula: the numerator "Net attributable profit (loss)" and the items in the denominator "Average intangible assets" and "Average accumulated other comprehensive income" are the same items and are calculated in the same way as explained for ROE.
Average intangible assets are the intangible assets on the Group's consolidated balance sheet, including goodwill and other intangible assets. The average balance is calculated in the same way as explained for shareholders funds in ROE.
Relevance of its use: this metric is generally used not only in the banking sector but also in other sectors to measure the return obtained on shareholders' funds, not including intangible assets.

Efficiency ratio
This measures the percentage of gross income consumed by an entity's operating expenses. It is calculated as follows:

Operating expenses
Gross income

Explanation of the formula: both "Operating expenses" and "Gross income" are taken from the Group’s consolidated income statement. Operating expenses are the sum of the administration costs (personnel expenses plus other administrative expenses) plus depreciation. Gross income is the sum of net interest income, net fees and commissions, net trading income dividend income, share of profit or loss of entities accounted for using the equity method, other operating income and expenses, and income from assets and expenses from liabilities under insurance and reinsurance contracts. For a more detailed calculation of this ratio, the graphs on "Results" section of this report should be consulted, one of them with calculations with figures at current exchange rates and another with the data at constant exchange rates.
Relevance of its use: this ratio is generally used in the banking sector. In addition, it is the metric for one of the six Strategic Priorities of the Group.

Book value per share
The book value per share determines the value of a company on its books for each share held. It is calculated as follows:

Shareholders' funds + Accumulated other comprehensive income
Number of shares outstanding - Treasury shares

Explanation of the formula: the figures for both "Shareholders' funds" and "Accumulated other comprehensive income" are taken from the balance sheet. Shareholders' funds are adjusted to take into account the execution of the "Dividend-option" at the closing dates on which it was agreed to deliver this type of dividend prior to the publication of the Group´s results. The denominator includes the final number of outstanding shares excluding own shares (treasury shares) and excluding the shares corresponding to share buyback programs. In addition, the denominator is also adjusted to include the capital increase resulting from the execution of the dividend options explained above. Both the numerator and the denominator take into account period-end balances.
Relevance of its use: it shows the company's book value for each share issued. It is a generally used ratio, not only in the banking sector but also in others.

Tangible book value per share
The tangible book value per share determines the value of the company on its books for each share held by shareholders in the event of liquidation. It is calculated as follows:

Shareholders' funds + Accumulated other comprehensive income - Intangible assets
Number of shares outstanding - Treasury shares

Explanation of the formula: the figures for "Shareholders' funds", "Accumulated other comprehensive income" and "Intangible assets" are all taken from the balance sheet. Shareholders' funds are adjusted to take into account the execution of the "Dividend-option" at the closing dates on which it was agreed to deliver this type of dividend prior to the publication of the Group´s results. The denominator includes the final number of shares outstanding excluding own shares (treasury shares) and excluding the shares corresponding to share buyback programs which are deducted from the shareholders' funds. In addition, the denominator is also

Non-performing loan (NPL) ratio
It is the ratio between the risks classified for accounting purposes as non-performing loans and the total credit risk balance. It is calculated as follows:

Non-performing loans
Total credit risk

Explanation of the formula: non-performing loans and the credit risk balance are gross, meaning they are not adjusted by associated accounting provisions.
Non-performing loans are calculated as the sum of “loans and advances at amortized cost” and the “contingent risk” in stage 3 19 and the following counterparties:
•other financial entities
•public sector
•non-financial institutions
•households.
The credit risk balance is calculated as the sum of "Loans and advances at amortized cost" and "Contingent risk" in stage 1 + stage 2 + stage 3 of the previous counterparts.
This indicator is shown, as others, at a business area level.
Relevance of its use: this is one of the main indicators used in the banking sector to monitor the current situation and changes in credit risk quality, and specifically, the relationship between risks classified in the accounts as non-performing loans and the total balance of credit risk, with respect to customers and contingent liabilities.

NPL coverage ratio
This ratio reflects the degree to which the impairment of non-performing loans has been covered in the accounts via allowances. It is calculated as follows:

Provisions
Non-performing loans

Explanation of the formula: it is calculated as "Provisions" from stage 1 + stage 2 + stage 3, divided by non-performing loans, formed by “credit risk” from stage 3.
This indicator is shown, as others, at a business area level.
19 IFRS 9 classifies financial instruments into three stages, which depend on the evolution of their credit risk from the moment of initial recognition. The stage 1 includes operations when they are initially recognized, stage 2 comprises operations for which a significant increase in credit risk has been identified since their initial recognition and, stage 3, impaired operations.

Cost of risk
This ratio indicates the current situation and changes in credit-risk quality through the annual cost in terms of impairment losses (accounting loan-loss provisions) of each unit of loans and advances to customers (gross). It is calculated as follows:

Loan-loss provisions
Average loans and advances to customers (gross)

Explanation of the formula: "Loans to customers (gross)" refers to the "Loans and advances at amortized cost" portfolios with the following counterparts:
•other financial entities
•public sector
•non-financial institutions
•households, excluding central banks and other credit institutions.
Average loans to customers (gross) is calculated by using the average of the period-end balances of each month of the period analyzed plus the previous month. If the metric is presented on a date before the close of the fiscal year, the numerator will be annualized. By doing this, "Annualized loan-loss provisions" are calculated by accumulating and annualizing the loan-loss provisions of each month of the period under analysis (based on days passed).
Loan-loss provisions refer to the aforementioned loans and advances at amortized cost portfolios.
This indicator is shown, as others, at a business area level.
Relevance of its use: this is one of the main indicators used in the banking sector to monitor the situation and changes in the quality of credit risk through the cost over the year.
