Recent Changes to the Georgian Tax Code

 

TBC Bank Group PLC ("TBC PLC") announces that the recent amendment to the Georgian Tax Code in relation to corporate income tax will have an immediate impact on its deferred tax liability. The amendment, which comes into force on 12 June 2018, postpones tax relief for re-invested profit from 1 January 2019 to 1 January 2023 for financial institutions. As a result, TBC PLC will reverse the one-off deferred tax gain recognized in 2016. This reversal will result in an estimated GEL 14-19 million expense on the profit and loss statement and an estimated GEL 5 million reduction in equity in Q2 2018. Excluding this effect, TBC PLC expects its effective tax rate to be in the range of 9-11% in 2018.
