Notes

 
The term Barclays or Group refers to Barclays PLC together with its subsidiaries. Unless otherwise stated, the income statement analysis compares the nine months to 30 September 2015 to the corresponding nine months of 2014 and balance sheet analysis as at 30 September 2015 with comparatives relating to 30 June 2015. The abbreviations ‘£m’ and ‘£bn’ represent millions and thousands of millions of Pounds Sterling respectively; and the abbreviations ‘$m’ and ‘$bn’ represent millions and thousands of millions of US Dollars respectively.
 
Comparatives pre Q214 have been restated to reflect the implementation of the Group structure changes and the reallocation of elements of the Head Office results under the revised business structure. These restatements were detailed in our announcement on 10 July 2014, accessible at www.barclays.com/barclays-investor-relations/results-and-reports.
 
References throughout this document to ‘provisions for ongoing investigations and litigation including Foreign Exchange’ means ‘provisions held for certain aspects of ongoing investigations involving certain authorities and litigation including Foreign Exchange.’
 
Adjusted profit before tax, adjusted attributable profit and adjusted performance metrics have been presented to provide a more consistent basis for comparing business performance between periods. Adjusting items are considered to be significant but not representative of the underlying business performance. Items excluded from the adjusted measures are: the impact of own credit; goodwill impairment; provisions for UK customer redress; gain on US Lehman acquisition assets; provisions for ongoing investigations and litigation including Foreign Exchange; losses on sale relating to the Spanish and Portuguese businesses; Education, Social Housing, and Local Authority (ESHLA) valuation revision; and gain on valuation of a component of the defined retirement benefit liability. As management reviews adjusting items at a Group level, results by business are presented excluding these items. The reconciliation of adjusted to statutory performance is done at a Group level only.
 
Relevant terms that are used in this document but are not defined under applicable regulatory guidance or International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) are explained in the Results glossary that can be accessed at www.barclays.com/results.
 
The information in this announcement, which was approved by the Board of Directors on 28 October 2015 does not comprise statutory accounts within the meaning of Section 434 of the Companies Act 2006. Statutory accounts for the year ended 31 December 2014, which included certain information required for the Joint Annual Report on Form 20-F of Barclays PLC and Barclays Bank PLC to the US Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) and which contained an unqualified audit report under Section 495 of the Companies Act 2006 (which did not make any statements under Section 498 of the Companies Act 2006) have been delivered to the Registrar of Companies in accordance with Section 441 of the Companies Act 2006.
 
These results will be furnished as a Form 6-K to the SEC as soon as practicable following their publication. Once furnished with the SEC, copies of the Form 6-K will also be available from the Barclays Investor Relations website www.barclays.com/investorrelations and from the SEC’s website at www.sec.gov.
 
Barclays is a frequent issuer in the debt capital markets and regularly meets with investors via formal road-shows and other ad hoc meetings. Consistent with its usual practice, Barclays expects that from time to time over the coming quarter it will meet with investors globally to discuss these results and other matters relating to the Group.
 
Forward-looking statements
 
This document contains certain forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 21E of the US Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and Section 27A of the US Securities Act of 1933, as amended, with respect to the Group. Barclays cautions readers that no forward-looking statement is a guarantee of future performance and that actual results or other financial condition or performance measures could differ materially from those contained in the forward-looking statements. These forward-looking statements can be identified by the fact that they do not relate only to historical or current facts. Forward-looking statements sometimes use words such as ‘may’, ‘will’, ‘seek’, ‘continue’, ‘aim’, ‘anticipate’, ‘target’, ‘projected’, ‘expect’, ‘estimate’, ‘intend’, ‘plan’, ‘goal’, ‘believe’, ‘achieve’ or other words of similar meaning. Examples of forward-looking statements include, among others, statements regarding the Group’s future financial position, income growth, assets, impairment charges and provisions, business strategy, capital, leverage and other regulatory ratios, payment of dividends (including dividend pay-out ratios), projected levels of growth in the banking and financial markets, projected costs or savings, original and revised commitments and targets in connection with the strategic cost programme and the Group Strategy Update, rundown of assets and businesses within Barclays Non-Core, estimates of capital expenditures and plans and objectives for future operations, projected employee numbers and other statements that are not historical fact. By their nature, forward-looking statements involve risk and uncertainty because they relate to future events and circumstances. These may be affected by changes in legislation, the development of standards and interpretations under International Financial Reporting Standards, evolving practices with regard to the interpretation and application of accounting and regulatory standards, the outcome of current and future legal proceedings and regulatory investigations, future levels of conduct provisions, the policies and actions of governmental and regulatory authorities, geopolitical risks and the impact of competition. In addition, factors including (but not limited to) the following may have an effect: capital, leverage and other regulatory rules (including with regard to the future structure of the Group) applicable to past, current and future periods; UK, US, Africa, Eurozone and global macroeconomic and business conditions; the effects of continued volatility in credit markets; market related risks such as changes in interest rates and foreign exchange rates; effects of changes in valuation of credit market exposures; changes in valuation of issued securities; volatility in capital markets; changes in credit ratings of any entities within the Group or any securities issued by such entities; the potential for one or more countries exiting the Eurozone; the implementation of the strategic cost programme; and the success of future acquisitions, disposals and other strategic transactions. A number of these influences and factors are beyond the Group’s control. As a result, the Group’s actual future results, dividend payments, and capital and leverage ratios may differ materially from the plans, goals, and expectations set forth in the Group’s forward-looking statements. Additional risks and factors which may impact the Group’s future financial condition and performance are identified in our filings with the SEC (including, without limitation, our Annual Report on Form 20-F for the fiscal year ended 31 December 2014), which are available on the SEC’s website at www.sec.gov.
 
Subject to our obligations under the applicable laws and regulations of the United Kingdom and the United States in relation to disclosure and ongoing information, we undertake no obligation to update publicly or revise any forward looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise.
 

 
Performance Highlights
 
Chairman’s Review
 
“Today’s results show another quarter of progress in our Core businesses alongside the early effects of some of the changes that we are making.
 
We are pleased that Jes Staley will join us on 1 December as Group Chief Executive Officer, earlier than expected, and we are in the final stage of appointing a Senior Independent Director and Deputy Chairman to replace Sir Mike Rake on his retirement from the Board in the near future.
 
As we align Barclays around our three priorities – focus on core (segments and markets), generating shareholder value, and instilling a high performance culture with strong ethical values - we now have a forward agenda that has been discussed and agreed with Mr. Staley.
 
We will update the market on our plans for structural reform after we have agreed them with the regulator.
 
Now that we have a new CEO in place, we will provide further updates on future direction at the full year results.”
 

John McFarlane, Chairman


  •
4% growth in Group adjusted profit before tax to £5,156m was achieved in the nine months to 30 September 2015, reflecting improvements in all Core operating businesses. Group adjusted return on average shareholders’ equity increased to 7.1% (2014: 6.3%)
 
  •
A 5% reduction in Group total adjusted operating expenses to £12,465m and a 4% reduction in operating expenses excluding costs to achieve to £11,926m were driven by savings from strategic cost programmes
 
  •
Profit before tax in the Core business improved 7% to £6,005m with higher income and lower costs. Combined with the increase in average allocated equity of £6bn to £47bn, this resulted in a return on average equity for the Core business of 10.5% (2014: 10.5%)
 
  •
Rundown of the Non-Core business continued, with risk weighted assets (RWAs) decreasing to £55bn (30 June 2015: £57bn). The announced sale of the Portuguese retail business in Q315, due to be completed in Q116, is expected to result in a further £1.7bn reduction in Non-Core RWAs. Period end allocated equity reduced to £9bn
 
  •
Group capital and leverage metrics remained above the 2016 targets, with the fully loaded common equity tier 1 (CET1) ratio at 11.1% (30 June 2015: 11.1%) and the leverage ratio increasing to 4.2% (30 June 2015: 4.1%)
 
  •
Net tangible asset value per share increased to 289p (30 June 2015: 279p) driven by profit generated for the period and favourable reserve movements
 
  •
Statutory profit before tax increased 7% to £3,975m, which reflected net losses on adjusting items of £1,181m (2014: £1,217m)
 
Significant Q315 adjusting items:
 
  •
Additional provisions of £270m were made in Q315 relating to the settlement of two residential mortgage backed securities claims with the National Credit Union Administration and the settlement of certain legacy benchmark litigation, taking the total additional provisions for ongoing investigations and litigation including Foreign Exchange in 2015 to £1,070m (2014: £500m)
 
  •
Additional UK customer redress provisions of £290m were made in Q315 as a result of an internal review relating to rates provided to certain customers on foreign exchange transactions between 2005 and 2012, taking the total provisions for UK customer redress in 2015 to £1,322m (2014: £910m). No additional Performance Highlightsprovisions for PPI redress were made in Q315
 
  •
A loss on sale of £201m was recognised in Q315 relating to the announced sale of the Portuguese retail business within Non-Core, which is due to complete in Q116. This is in addition to the loss of £118m recognised in H115 relating to the sale of the Spanish business

The effective tax rate for Q315 YTD is the expected full year rate adjusted for the impact of significant one-off items. The tax impacts of such items, which include adjusting items and the UK bank levy, are recognised in the period in which they occur.
2
The profit after tax attributable to other equity holders of £238m (Q314 YTD: £170m) is offset by a tax credit recorded in reserves of £48m (Q314 YTD: £36m). The net amount of £190m (Q314 YTD: £134m), along with non-controlling interests (NCI) is deducted from profit after tax in order to calculate earnings per share, return on average tangible shareholders’ equity and return on average shareholders’ equity.

Adjusted total operating expenses were down 5% to £12,465m as a result of savings from strategic cost programmes, particularly in Non-Core, the Investment Bank and Personal and Corporate Banking (PCB), reductions in costs to achieve to £539m (2014: £826m) and litigation and conduct charges to £272m (2014: £309m)
  •
Statutory profit before tax was £3,975m (2014: £3,722m) which also included an own credit gain of £605m (2014: £96m), a £496m (2014: £461m) gain on US Lehman acquisition assets, a £429m (2014: £nil) gain on the valuation of a component of the defined retirement benefit liability, an additional £1,322m (2014: £910m) of provisions for UK customer redress, £1,070m (2014: £500m) of additional provisions for ongoing investigations and litigation including Foreign Exchange, and £319m (2014: £364m) of losses on sale relating to the Spanish and Portuguese businesses
  •
The effective tax rate on adjusted profit before tax decreased to 28.7% (2014: 33.0%) and on statutory profit before tax decreased to 30.5% (2014: 40.2%). The reduction reflects the expected full year rate adjusted for the impact of significant one-off items, including adjusting items and the UK bank levy, which are recognised in the period in which they occur. The reduction in the effective tax rate on statutory profit before tax also reflects the non-deductible impairment of assets on the sale of the Spanish business in 2014
  •
Adjusted attributable profit was £2,942m (2014: £2,588m) resulting in an adjusted return on average shareholders’ equity of 7.1% (2014: 6.3%)

 
Core performance
  •
Profit before tax increased 7% to £6,005m with improvements in all Core operating businesses, partially offset by a loss before tax in Head Office of £229m (2014: profit of £106m)
 
-
Growth in profit before tax in the Investment Bank and Barclaycard was particularly strong, increasing 31% to £1,757m and 16% to £1,303m respectively
 
-
PCB profit before tax improved 14% to £2,568m when excluding the impact of the loss on sale of the US Wealth business and US Wealth customer redress
  •
Income increased 2% to £19,042m
 
-
Barclaycard income increased 12% to £3,649m reflecting growth in US cards and Business Solutions through continued focus on profitable asset growth
 
-
Investment Bank income increased 3% to £6,110m reflecting a 9% improvement in Macro due to higher income in rates and currency products, a 6% increase in Banking income driven by higher advisory and debt underwriting fees, and lending income, and a 4% increase in Equities income due to higher income in equity derivatives. Credit income decreased 11% due to lower distressed credit and securitised products income, partially offset by higher revenues in the flow credit business
 
-
Africa Banking income increased 1% to £2,719m. On a constant currency basis1 income increased 6% reflecting solid growth in Retail and Business Banking (RBB) in South Africa, and strong growth outside of South Africa
 
-
PCB income decreased 1% to £6,564m. Excluding the impact of lower income in the US Wealth business, the sale of which is expected to complete in Q415, PCB income increased 1%. Corporate income grew 5% from balance growth and improved deposit margins, while Personal income reduced 3% due to mortgage margin pressure and lower fee income
 
-
Net interest income in PCB, Barclaycard and Africa Banking increased 6% to £8,984m driven by margin improvement in Barclaycard, and volume growth in Barclaycard and PCB. Net interest margin increased 8bps to 4.17%
 
-
Head Office income decreased to £nil (2014: £215m) impacted by the non-recurrence of net gains from foreign exchange recycling arising from the restructure of Group subsidiaries and gains resulting from a liability management exercise in 2014
  •
Credit impairment charges reduced 2% to £1,406m primarily due to a 28% improvement in PCB impairment due to the improving UK economic environment resulting in lower default rates and charges
  •
Total operating expenses reduced 1% to £11,632m, reflecting savings from strategic cost programmes, principally in the Investment Bank and PCB, and lower costs to achieve of £494m (2014: £655m). This was partially offset by Barclaycard total operating expenses which increased 14% primarily due to continued investment in business growth and the impact of non-recurring items, including an asset write-off of £55m and certain marketing costs. Head Office costs also increased £127m to £233m primarily due to costs relating to the implementation of structural reform
  •
Attributable profit increased 14% to £3,672m, while average allocated equity increased £6bn to £47bn as capital was redeployed from Non-Core, resulting in a Core return on average equity of 10.5% (2014: 10.5%)

Constant currency results are calculated by converting ZAR results into GBP using the average exchange rate for the nine months ended 30 September 2015.
 
Non-Core performance
  •
Loss before tax increased 31% to £849m reflecting:
 
-
A reduction in income of £980m to £48m following assets and securities rundown, business sales, including the impact of the sale of the Spanish and UAE businesses, and fair value losses on the Education, Social Housing, and Local Authority (ESHLA) portfolio of £203m (2014: £41m)
 
-
An improvement in credit impairment charges to £62m (2014: £166m) primarily reflecting the sale of the Spanish business and higher recoveries in Europe
 
-
A 43% reduction in total operating expenses to £833m due to savings from strategic cost programmes, the sale of the Spanish and UAE businesses, and reduced costs to achieve
  •
Non-Core return on average equity dilution was 3.4% (2014: 4.2%) reflecting a £5bn reduction in average allocated equity to £9bn. Period end allocated equity reduced to £9bn


Balance sheet, leverage and capital
 
  •
Total assets increased 3% to £1,237bn compared to 30 June 2015 while leverage exposure remained stable at £1,141bn
 
 
-
Net derivative leverage exposure, excluding Potential Future Exposure (PFE), increased £6bn primarily due to an increase in balance sheet assets of £38bn to £379bn (broadly matched by an increase in derivative liabilities), principally reflecting movements in the major interest rate forward curves. This was largely offset by an increase in regulatory derivative netting of £35bn to £343bn
 
-
The PFE on derivatives decreased £5bn to £155bn mainly as a result of continued legacy portfolio rundown and trade compressions and tear-ups
 
-
Securities Financing Transactions leverage exposure decreased £6bn, primarily due to reverse repurchase agreements decreasing £9bn to £84bn, mainly driven by lower matched book trading due to balance sheet deleveraging
 
-
Leverage loans and advances and other assets increased by £7bn to £710bn. This included lending growth of £4bn in PCB and £3bn in Barclaycard, and a £2bn increase in settlement balances. This was partially offset by a £2bn decrease in Africa Banking reflecting the depreciation of ZAR against GBP
  •
The leverage ratio increased to 4.2% (30 June 2015: 4.1%) due to an increase in fully loaded Tier 1 capital to £47.9bn (30 June 2015: £46.5bn), driven by the issuance of £1bn of Additional Tier 1 (AT1) securities
  
  •
The fully loaded CRD IV CET1 ratio remained stable at 11.1% (30 June 2015: 11.1%) with CET1 capital increasing £0.4bn to £42.4bn offset by RWAs increasing £5bn to £382bn
 
 
-
The increase in CET1 capital was driven by £0.5bn profits after absorbing adjusting items. After adjusting for the impacts of own credit and dividends paid and foreseen, capital generated from earnings increased CET1 capital by £0.3bn. Net increases in other qualifying reserves, which included currency translation reserve movements and pension valuation adjustments, were offset by increases in regulatory deductions, primarily due to the increase in the firm’s prudential valuation adjustment (PVA), reflecting increased valuation uncertainty on the ESHLA portfolio
 
-
The increase in RWAs was driven by a £7bn increase in Core RWAs to £327bn, primarily in the Investment Bank and PCB, partially offset by a £2bn decrease in Non-Core RWAs to £55bn
  •
Net asset value and net tangible asset value per share increased to 337p (30 June 2015: 328p) and 289p (30 June 2015: 279p) respectively driven by profit generated for the period, an increase in the cash flow hedging reserve and other favourable reserve movements as mentioned above
  

Funding and liquidity

  •
The Group continued to maintain surpluses to its internal and regulatory requirements in Q315 with a liquidity pool of £142bn as at 30 September 2015 (30 June 2015: £145bn) and Liquidity Coverage Ratio (LCR) of 118% (30 June 2015: 121%), equivalent to a surplus of £22bn (30 June 2015: £26bn). The quarterly reduction in liquidity surpluses reflects the previously anticipated funding impacts due to the reassessment of sovereign support and updated rating methodologies by credit rating agencies in H115
  •
Wholesale funding outstanding excluding repurchase agreements was £147bn (30 June 2015: £157bn). The Group issued £1.2bn of term unsecured funding net of early redemptions during Q315, of which £1.3bn was in public and private senior unsecured debt issued by the holding company, Barclays PLC. During the quarter, Barclays PLC also issued £1bn of AT1 securities. All the capital and debt proceeds raised by Barclays PLC have been used to subscribe for instruments at Barclays Bank PLC, the operating company with a ranking corresponding to the securities issued by Barclays PLC

Other matters
  •
Additional provisions of £1,070m (2014: £500m) were recognised in relation to ongoing investigations and litigation including Foreign Exchange. This included provisions of £270m in Q315 relating to the settlement of two residential mortgage backed securities claims with the National Credit Union Administration and the settlement of certain legacy benchmark litigation
  •
Additional UK customer redress provisions of £1,322m (2014: £910m) were recognised. This included:
 
-
A Q315 provision of £290m redress costs as a result of an internal review relating to rates provided to certain customers on foreign exchange transactions between 2005 and 2012
 
-
H115 charges of £282m for Packaged Bank Account redress costs and £750m of PPI redress costs. No additional provisions for PPI redress were made in Q315
  •
Barclays notes the Financial Conduct Authority’s (FCA) announcement of its proposed consultation for the introduction of a deadline by which consumers would need to make their PPI complaints or else lose their right to have them assessed. This consultation is also expected to propose rules and guidance concerning the handling of PPI complaints in light of the 2014 Supreme Court decision in Plevin v Paragon Personal Finance Ltd, with Plevin-type complaints also being subject to the same deadline. Barclays will continue to monitor these developments in its assessment of provisioning for PPI related costs and redress
  •
A loss on sale of £201m (2014: £nil) was recognised in Q315 relating to the announced sale of the Portuguese retail business within Non-Core, which is due to complete in Q116. This is in addition to the loss of £118m recognised in H115 relating to the sale of the Spanish business
  •
A £496m (2014: £461m) gain on US Lehman acquisition assets was recognised in Q215. Barclays has reached a settlement with the Securities Investor Protection Act Trustee for Lehman Brothers Inc. (LBI) to resolve outstanding litigation between the parties relating to the acquisition of most of the assets of LBI in September 2008
  •
A £429m (2014: £nil) gain was recognised in H115 as the valuation of a component of the defined retirement benefit liability was revised to use the long term Consumer Price Index rather than the Retail Price Index, consistent with statutory provisions

Dividends
  •
A third interim dividend for 2015 of 1p will be paid on 11 December 2015

Guidance and outlook
  •
2016 Core cost guidance has been increased from the previous level of less than £14.5bn excluding costs to achieve, to incorporate approximately £0.4bn of costs relating to the implementation of structural reform. Together with £0.1bn of structural reform implementation costs in 2015, an estimated £1bn of implementation costs are expected over the life of the programme
  •
The 2016 Core return on equity excluding costs to achieve guidance has been revised to 11% reflecting the impacts of the tax changes set out in the 2015 UK summer budget and increased costs relating to the implementation of structural reform
  •
The accelerated Non-Core RWA target of around £20bn at the end of 2017 is unchanged
  •
Non-Core guidance for 2016 has been revised from the previous return on equity drag of less than 3% and replaced with a quarterly cost run-rate excluding UK bank levy, litigation and conduct charges, and costs to achieve of £125m per quarter from Q416, as the accelerated rundown is implemented
  •
The Investment Bank has seen weaker market conditions in October in comparison to October 2014. However, it is too early to make any specific comment on Q4 performance

Capital
 
CRD IV capital
 
 
The Capital Requirements Regulation and Capital Requirements Directive implemented Basel 3 within the EU (collectively known as CRD IV) on 1 January 2014.  The rules are supplemented by Regulatory Technical Standards and the PRA’s rulebook, including the implementation of transitional rules. However, rules and guidance are still subject to change as certain aspects of CRD IV are dependent on final technical standards and clarifications to be issued by the EBA and adopted by the European Commission and the PRA. All capital, RWA and leverage calculations reflect Barclays’ interpretation of the current rules.

The transitional regulatory adjustment for unrealised gains is no longer applicable from 1 January 2015 resulting in CET1 capital on a fully loaded basis being equal to that on a transitional basis.
2
The CRD IV CET1 ratio (FSA October 2012 transitional statement) as applicable to Barclays’ Tier 2 Contingent Capital Notes was 12.7% based on £48.4bn of transitional CRD IV CET1 capital and £381.9bn of RWAs.
3
The PRA transitional capital is based on guidance provided in policy statement PS 7/13 on strengthening capital standards published in December 2013.
4
As at 30 September 2015, Barclays’ fully loaded Tier 1 capital was £47,859m, and the fully loaded Tier 1 ratio was 12.5%. Fully loaded total regulatory capital was £62,838m and the fully loaded total capital ratio was 16.5%. The fully loaded Tier 1 capital and total capital measures are calculated without applying the transitional provisions set out in CRD IV and assessing compliance of AT1 and T2 instruments against the relevant criteria in CRD IV.

Leverage
 
Leverage ratio requirements

The leverage ratio has been calculated in accordance with the European Union Delegated act which came into force from January 2015. The leverage calculation below uses the end-point CRR definition of Tier 1 capital for the numerator and the CRR definition of leverage exposure as adopted by the act.

At 30 September 2015 Barclays leverage ratio was 4.2%, which exceeds the expected minimum fully loaded requirement outlined by the Financial Policy Committee (FPC)1 of 3.7%, comprising the 3% minimum requirement, and the fully phased-in G-SII buffer.

1
In July 2015 the PRA set out a consultation on how it proposes to implement the FPC recommendations in the UK. The PRA is expected to publish a policy statement, finalised rules and supervisory statements by the end of 2015.
