Third Quarter Executive Summary
| BBVA Banco Francés obtained a net gain of Ps. 305.7 million, in the first nine months of 2008, an increase of 36.2% with respect to the accumulated result in the corresponding period of the previous year. The improvement in the Banks results is based on greater business volumes which allowed for an improvement in the private financial margin. The greater transactional volume is reflected in a 29.9% year-over-year growth in net income from services. Third quarter net earnings reached Ps. 117.5 million, an increase of 3.1% compared with the results registered in the previous quarter and 60.7% greater than in the corresponding quarter of the previous year. |
| Private sector loan portfolio surpassed Ps. 9.8 billion as of September 30, 2008, growing by 6.9% as compared to the balance registered as of June 30, 2008 and by 22.5% with respect to September 30, 2007. During the first nine months of the year, the expansion in private sector financings reached Ps. 800 million. Financing in the corporate segment increased by 7.3% in the third quarter, whereas the retail segment increased by 7.9% during the same period. |
| The strength of the asset quality ratios continues differentiating BBVA Banco Francés in the financial sector where it continues being the leader. As of September 30, 2008, the non-performing loans represented 0.83% of the total loans, whereas the coverage ratio of non-performing loans with provisions reached 258.2%. |
| During the third quarter of 2008, the deposits grew by 7.7%, surpassing the 5.8% of increase registered in the financial sector and reversing the decrease experienced during the second quarter. BBVA Banco Francés has a comfortable liquidity position. As of September 30, 2008, liquid assets available cash and due from banks plus Central Bank Instruments- represented 35.1% of total deposits. |
| Total shareholders equity grew by 4.3% during the last three months as a result of earnings from the period partially compensated by an increase of the unrealized valuation difference. This growth was reflected in an increase in excess capital over the minimum required according to Central Bank regulation witch reached Ps. 828.6 million at the end of the third quarter of 2008. Such excess represents 38.0% of the total shareholders equity, showing a great level of solvency. |

Third quarter of fiscal year 2008
During the third quarter of 2008, economic activity continued to expand but at a slightly slower pace than during the previous quarters. According to the EMAE (Monthly Estimator of Economic Activity), the economy grew by 7.1% year-over-year on average during the months of July and August, and below the 7.5% growth recorded in the second quarter of 2008. During the same period, both construction and industrial activity grew at below the average rate of growth of the economy (3.5% and 6.5% year-over-year respectively).
Tax collection continued to increase during the third quarter, rising on average by 39.5% year-over-year primarily driven by the 129.5% increase in export duties, which reflect the hike in international commodity prices. The primary fiscal surplus of the National Public Sector rose to Ps. 11.3 billion, a 33% improvement compared to the same period of 2007. Primary fiscal spending, which had increased by 40% in the second quarter of 2008, decelerated, growing by 30.6% during this quarter.
Inflation, as measured by the CPI (which is used to calculate the CER index, to which sovereign bonds are adjusted) averaged 8.9% year-over-year during the third quarter.
Trade surplus improved compared to the second quarter as exports of cereal grains recovered dynamism after the conflict with the farming sector was resolved. Trade balance has accumulated a surplus of USD 10.2 billion as of September 2008, almost 44 % higher than in the same period of 2007.
International reserves reached USD 47.1 billion at the end of September, 2008, a decrease of only USD 0.4 billion during the quarter. The Exchange rate (reference BCRA) closed at Ps. 3.13 per USD at the end of September, 2008, 3.5% above the levels at the end of June, 2008. The Badlar rates among private banks decreased from 17.5% in June 2008 to 12.2% (monthly average) in September, 2008. The stock of Bills and Notes remained stable during the quarter and the stock of reverse repos grew by Ps. 7 billion, a 142.6% increase, improving the liquidity ratios of the banks.
Private sector deposits increased by 5.8% on average during the third quarter of 2008. Loans to the private sector, in pesos and in foreign currency, increased by 4.5 %, a slight deceleration compared to the previous quarters.
Global economy suffered an important deterioration during the third quarter of 2008, with substantial turbulence in the global capital markets. On the other hand, the Argentine financial system showed a high level of strength and signs of normality with good ratios of liquidity and solvency.
The Business
BBVA Banco Francés, one of the leading banks in Argentina, is recognized by its capacity to adapt to the different market conditions and necessities. With more than Ps. 20 billion in assets under management, the Bank is one of the main suppliers of financial and non financial services to the different market segments, working constantly on its distribution model looking to satisfy an evermore strict demand.
The Bank continues focused in expanding the credit activity in the private sector. In line with this strategy, financings to small and medium companies grew by 8.4% during the last three months, whereas for large corporations the increase reached 6.7% during the same period. Meanwhile financings to the retail segment showed an expansion of 7.9% during this last quarter.
Also, the strength of the quality portfolio ratios continues differentiating BBVA Banco Francés in the financial system.
In terms of liabilities, seeking to reduce the funding cost, our actions have been aimed at fund-raising from the retail segment and increasing current account deposits participation as part as total deposits. During the third quarter of 2008, deposits grew by 7.7%, over the total financial system growth.

Net Income for the third quarter was Ps. 117.5 million, which represents an increase of 3.1% and 60.7% compared to the previous quarter and with the same quarter a year ago, respectively.
Net Operating Income showed larger earnings as a consequence of an improvement in Net Financial Income and in Net Income from Services, partially offset by a higher charge in provisions for loan losses and an increase in administrative expenses.
The improvement in the Net Financial Income is mainly due to the expansion in the private sector portfolio as well as to an increase in the Banks spreads, which were due to an increase in financing to small and medium size companies and to the retail segment; partially offset by the adjustment in the public sector portfolio.
Net Income from Services increased by 11.0% and by 29.9% as compared with the previous quarter and with the same quarter a year ago, respectively. Growth is explained mainly by the rise in the activity level.
Administrative Expenses increased by 5.0% during the last quarter and by 30.5% during the last twelve months, mainly driven by the higher activity and investments levels, which also resulted in the increase in personnel and administrative expenses and in higher costs in renegotiated lease contracts.
Growth in Net Operating Income improved the efficiency ratio. During the third quarter of 2008, Administrative Expenses represented 60% of Total Net Operating Income, whereas in the previous quarter and in the same quarter a year ago these ratios were 61.7% and 63.1%, respectively.

Net Financial Income
The improvement in the Net Financial Income is mainly due to the expansion in the private sector portfolio as well as to an increase in the Banks spreads, which were due to an increase in financing to small and medium companies and to the retail segment; partially offset by the adjustment in the public sector portfolio in the amount of Ps. 286.5 million in the year, exceeding Central Banks requirements by Ps. 169.6 million.
During the third quarter, income related to foreign currency exchange, included in Foreign exchange difference reached Ps. 38.8 million, which is 26.7% less than the corresponding amount during the prior quarter.

Income from Securities and Short-Term Investments
In the third quarter of 2008, the valuation adjustment in public assets reached Ps. 75.7 million, exceeding the BCRA requirements (Com A 3911) by Ps. 28.8 million. During the first nine months of the year, this valuation adjustment was Ps. 286.5 million, of which Ps. 169.6 million exceeds the regulators requirements.
The results for the assets available for sale portfolio decreased with respect to the previous quarter as a result of smaller holdings volume, whereas the instruments issued by the Central Bank produced greater results due to a larger volume in the third quarter.
The variations in the CER adjustment are due to a higher index variation as no significant changes in the CER adjusted holdings were registered in the last quarter.

Net income from services
Added to the financial activity growth in the core business, Net Income from Services maintained its positive trend, for a total of Ps. 192.5 million in the quarter; this represents an increase of 11.0% as compared with the amount registered in the previous quarter and 29.9% above the income obtained a year ago.
Expansion during the quarter is mainly explained by increases in fees from consulting in capital markets activities, credit cards and maintenance of checking and saving accounts; all tied to an increase in commercial activity.
In the last twelve months, growth is also explained as a consequence of increases in fees associated with retail activity, mainly those related to current and saving accounts, credit cards and insurance commissions together with those coming from the foreign trade operations in the middle market segment and capital markets activities.

Administrative Expenses
Administrative expenses increased by 5.0% during the third quarter and by 30.5% during the last twelve months, to Ps. 286.3 million by the end of September 30, 2008.
Such increase as compared with the prior quarter is explained by an increase in the number of external employees, hired for development of information technology, a greater expense relating to the hired sales force, jointly with higher cots of renegotiation of lease expenses and the opening of new points of sale.
Furthermore, when compared against the same period for the prior year, Administrative expenses grew 30.5%, mainly driven by higher activity and investment levels; which caused an increase in personnel and organization expenses. These increases are explained mainly due to the higher salaries agreed to with the labor union and a larger number of employees. The increase in organization expenses, are a reflection of greater investments in infrastructure and information technology development.

Other Income/Expenses
As of September 30, 2008, Total Other Income/Expenses registered a loss of Ps. 8.1 million, higher than the Ps. 3.2 million registered during the previous quarter; the difference is mainly explained by a lower income from recovered loans, which was partially offset by a lower charge in provisions for other contingencies. During the first quarter of 2008, the Bank completed the amortization of the asset related with legal injunctions; It is important to note that such amortization was booked in accordance with Central Banks regulation and that it does not imply that the Bank waives its right to demand a future compensation or the recovery of the difference in the exchange rate ordered by the legal injunctions.
BBVA Banco Francés determines the charge for income tax by applying the current tax rate of 35% to taxable income estimated for each period considering the effect of temporary differences between book and taxable income. The Bank has considered as temporary differences those that have a definitive reversal date in subsequent fiscal years. At the same time, as of September 30, 2008 and September 30, 2007 the Bank has concluded that it must not pay income tax due to the existence of a net operating loss from previous years, for income tax purposes.
As of September 30, 2008 and at the close of the previous fiscal year, the Bank maintains recorded in its books under Other Receivables (in the Tax Advance account), a taxable deferred asset amounting to Ps. 179.2 million and Ps. 55.5 million, respectively; as per with agreement to the norms of the Central Bank.
Income from equity investments
Income from Equity Investments sets forth net income from related companies, which are not consolidated, mainly the Consolidar Group. The stake in the Consolidar Group recorded profits of Ps. 4.3 million during the third quarter of 2008.
- 6 -
Public Sector Exposure
As of September 30, 2008, the Public Sector National Government exposure represents 13.0% of the Banks total assets. During the third quarter of 2008, this exposure was reduced mainly by the valuation adjustment in public assets and due to the expiration of a reverse repo transaction with government bonds on June 30, 2008. These variations were partially offset by the increase in holdings of guaranteed loans and Bogar 2020 arising from the corresponding update of the CER index.
The Central Bank Bills and Notes portfolio, net of holdings liked to reverse repo transactions, remained stable during the quarter. As of September 30, 2008, Central Bank instruments received from reverse repo transactions were Ps. 704.7 million, whereas the net portfolio was Ps. 1,406.2 million.

- 7 -
The Government and Private Securities net position decreased 3.6% during the third quarter of 2008 and 32.7% in the last twelve months mainly due to the valuation adjustment in public assets and to the reduction in the Central Bank instruments holdings.
The variations in the Available for the Sale and Trading portfolios correspond to maturities and new incorporations of Central Bank Bills and Notes.

Deposits
Deposits grew by 7.7% during the third quarter of 2008; more than the 5.8% of increase in the financial system and reversing the decrease that took place during the second quarter, whereas in comparison with the same quarter a year ago, the increase was of 9.7%.
Current accounts grew by 7.6% in the last three months of 2008, maintaining its proportion in relation with total deposits, which allow the Bank to maintain its cost for funds in similar levels than the previous quarters; furthermore time deposits grew by 8.3%, growing not only from retail, but also from corporate and institutional clients. On the other hand, the decreasing trend of CER adjusted time deposits continued during this quarter.
Deposits performance during the last twelve months showed an expansion of Ps. 1,372 million, representing a 9.7% increase. Current and saving accounts grew by 22.3% and 20.0% respectively; whereas time deposits did not have a significant variation.

Other Funding Sources
Balances in Other funding sources increased by 31.6% as compared with the prior quarter and by 22.6% as compared with the same quarter one year ago.

Capitalization
During the last three months ended on September 30, 2008 total shareholders equity grew by 4.3% due to gains obtained during the period, partially offset by an increase in Unrealized Valuation Difference. This growth was reflected in an increase in the excess of capital over Central Bank requirements, which reached Ps. 828.6 million. Such excess represented 38% on total Shareholders equity, evidencing an important level of solvency. The decrease registered in the excess capital required during the last twelve months is mainly explained by higher demand caused by the increase in private sector financings and a raise in Alpha coefficient.
- 10 -
As of September 30, 2008, the Unrealized Valuation Difference registered a balance of Ps. 61.2 million. The variation with respect to the balance posted as of June 30, 2008 is related with an increase in the stock of Central Bank instruments booked as Available for sale and with a lower government bonds prices included in this category.
Finally, the Bank recorded an asset corresponding to the Minimum Presumed Income Tax, in an amount of Ps. 214.9 million as of September 30, 2008.
