In the first three months of this year we have continued to make good progress, delivering a robust financial performance and maintaining our strong balance sheet. These results demonstrate the strength of our differentiated, simple, low risk business model and reflect our ability to actively respond to the challenging operating environment.

REVIEW OF FINANCIAL PERFORMANCE
Overview: robust financial performance with stable underlying profit and strong underlying returns
Underlying profit of £2,054 million was down 6 per cent versus the prior year, but in line after excluding TSB. A small reduction in income was offset by lower operating costs and reduced impairment charges. Statutory profit before tax was £654 million (2015: £1,214 million) after the expected charge relating to the redemption of ECNs in the first quarter of £790 million.
The underlying return on required equity was 13.8 per cent compared with 16.0 per cent in the first three months of 2015. The reduction largely reflects the disposal of TSB and a higher assumed underlying tax rate. The statutory return on required equity was 4.4 per cent (2015: 8.3 per cent).
Total loans and advances to customers were £457 billion at 31 March 2016, an increase of £2 billion since 31 December 2015 with increased lending to SMEs, other commercial clients and UK consumer finance customers. Customer deposits at £419 billion were £1 billion higher than at 31 December 2015.
The common equity tier 1 ratio was 13.0 per cent before accruing dividends for 2016, with the leverage ratio at 4.7 per cent. The tangible net asset value per share increased to 55.2 pence (31 December 2015: 52.3 pence).

Total income was £4,383 million with increased net interest income offset by lower other income. Net interest income increased 3 per cent to £2,906 million reflecting a further improvement in net interest margin to 2.74 per cent (2015: 2.60 per cent). The improved margin more than offset the impact of the 2 per cent reduction in average interest-earning banking assets, which was largely due to lower run-off assets.
The improvement in net interest margin was due to improved deposit pricing and mix, lower wholesale funding costs and a benefit, as expected, from the recent ECN redemptions. The net interest margin also included a 5 basis point uplift from a one-off credit to net interest income relating to the credit cards portfolio. The Group continues to expect that the net interest margin for the 2016 full year will be around 2.70 per cent, in line with the guidance given with the 2015 full year results.
Other income at £1,477 million was resilient in the current market conditions and broadly in line with our historic run rate and quarterly run rate expectations for 2016. This was 7 per cent lower than in the first three months of 2015, largely due to lower insurance income and continued pressure on fees and commissions.

Operating costs of £1,987 million were 2 per cent lower compared with the first quarter of 2015 reflecting the acceleration of savings from Simplification initiatives, partly offset by increased investment. Phase II of the Simplification programme has now delivered £495 million of annual run-rate savings to date, ahead of plan and on track to deliver £1 billion of Simplification savings by the end of 2017.
The Group delivered positive operating jaws1 of 1 per cent with the cost:income ratio improving to 47.4 per cent from 47.7 per cent in the first quarter of 2015. The Group continues to target annual improvements in the cost:income ratio with a target ratio of around 45 per cent as it exits 2019.
Operating lease depreciation increased 5 per cent to £193 million driven by the continued growth in the Lex Autolease business.

The impairment charge was £149 million, 6 per cent lower than in the first quarter of 2015. The asset quality ratio was 14 basis points in the quarter, with a 22 basis point gross impairment charge offset by 8 basis points of releases and writebacks. Credit quality remains strong with the gross charge slightly better than expected but, for now, we continue to expect a 2016 full year asset quality ratio of around 20 basis points.
Impaired loans as a percentage of closing advances reduced to 2.0 per cent from 2.1 per cent at the end of December 2015.

Further information on the reconciliation of underlying to statutory results is included on page 8. |
Statutory profit before tax was £654 million compared with £1,214 million in the first quarter of 2015.
The loss relating to the ECNs in the first quarter was £790 million, representing the write-off of the embedded derivative and the premium paid on redemption of the remaining notes. Market volatility and asset sales of £203 million (2015: positive £83 million) was largely due to negative insurance volatility of £163 million (2015: positive £242 million). Restructuring costs were £161 million and comprise severance related costs incurred to deliver phase II of the Simplification programme and the costs of implementing ring-fencing.
There was a charge of £115 million in the first three months to cover retail conduct matters. No further provision has been taken for PPI, where complaint levels over the three months have been around 8,500 per week on average, broadly in line with expectations.
Statutory profit in the first quarter of 2015 included a charge of £745 million comprising £660 million relating to the sale of TSB and £85 million of TSB dual running costs.
Taxation
The tax charge for the first three months was £123 million (2015: £270 million) representing an effective tax rate of 19 per cent (2015: 22 per cent). The effective tax rate reflects the impact of tax exempt gains and capital losses not previously recognised. The Group continues to expect a medium term effective tax rate of around 27 per cent.

The CET1 and leverage ratios at 31 December 2015 were reported on a pro forma basis, including the dividend paid by the Insurance business in February 2016 relating to 2015. |
Wholesale funding was £125 billion (31 December 2015: £120 billion) of which 37 per cent (31 December: 32 per cent) had a maturity of less than one year.
The Group's liquidity position remains strong and the liquidity coverage ratio was in excess of 100 per cent at 31 March 2016.
Capital
The Group maintained its strong balance sheet with a fully loaded common equity tier 1 ratio of 13.0 per cent before 2016 accrued dividends and 12.8 per cent after dividends (31 December 2015: 13.0 per cent pro forma). Underlying capital generation in the quarter was strong at around 60 basis points but was offset by the charge relating to ECN redemptions and other movements. The Group continues to expect to generate around 2 per cent of CET 1 capital per annum.
The leverage ratio reduced to 4.7 per cent primarily reflecting the increase in balance sheet assets.

The average leverage ratio is based on the average of the month end tier 1 capital and exposure measures over the quarter. The average of 4.7 per cent over the quarter compared to 4.8 per cent and 4.7 per cent at the start and end of the quarter respectively reflects both the impact of the ECN losses recognised during the quarter and the increase in balance sheet assets. |

BASIS OF PRESENTATION |
|||
|
This release covers the results of Lloyds Banking Group plc together with its subsidiaries (the Group) for the three months ended 31 March 2016. |
|||
|
Statutory basis: Statutory information is set out on page 7. However, a number of factors have had a significant effect on the comparability of the Group's financial position and results. As a result, comparison on a statutory basis of the 2016 results with 2015 is of limited benefit. |
|||
|
Underlying basis: In order to present a more meaningful view of business performance, the results are presented on an underlying basis excluding items that in management's view would distort the comparison of performance between periods. Based on this principle the following items are excluded from underlying profit: - losses on redemption of the Enhanced Capital Notes and the volatility in the value of the embedded equity conversion feature; - market volatility and other items, which includes the effects of certain asset sales, the volatility relating to the Group's own debt and hedging arrangements as well as that arising in the insurance businesses, insurance gross up, the unwind of acquisition-related fair value adjustments and the amortisation of purchased intangible assets; - restructuring costs, comprising severance related costs relating to the Simplification programme announced in October 2014 and the costs of implementing regulatory reform and ring fencing; - TSB build and dual running costs and the loss relating to the TSB sale in 2015; and - payment protection insurance and other conduct provisions. |
|||
|
Unless otherwise stated, income statement commentaries throughout this document compare the three months ended 31 March 2016 to the three months ended 31 March 2015, and the balance sheet analysis compares the Group balance sheet as at 31 March 2016 to the Group balance sheet as at 31 December 2015. |
