Danske Bank Fact Book Q3 2012

1.1 Financial goals The Group bases its total capital need on an assessment of the capital requirements under the current capital adequacy and transitional rules, a critical assessment of the effects of future regulation, including CRD IV, and criteria such as; rating target; expected growth and earnings; dividend policy; and stress test scenarios. See Risk Management 2011, section 3 on the new capital regulations and their effects on the Group. At 30 September 2012, the total capital ratio stood at 19.4, with 17.0 percentage points deriving from the Group’s total tier 1 capital.

1.2 Dividends and share buybacks If the Group has surplus capital above its target that is not needed for future growth, its policy is to return this surplus to the shareholders through share buybacks. The total amount of dividends and share buybacks since 2001 can be seen in the table below. For as long as the Danish state holds hybrid capital in Danske Bank, the Bank may distribute dividends if such dividends can be paid in full out of the net profit.

1.3 Share data

The Danske Bank Group is the largest financial services organisation in Denmark. The average daily trading volume of Danske Bank shares during the first nine months of 2012 was DKK 119.3 million. With a total trading volume of DKK 22,3 billion, the Danske Bank share was the sixth most actively traded share on the Copenhagen Stock Exchange (part of the OMX Exchange group) during the first nine months of 2012. At the beginning of 2012, there were 931,739,034 shares at a nominal value of DKK 10 per share. Danske Bank shares are negotiable, and no special rights are attached to them. No shareholder is obligated to redeem shares in full or in part. The shares are issued to the bearer, but they can be registered by name in the Bank’s register of shareholders. In the period from 14 March to 6 April 2011, Danske Bank increased its share capital by some DKK 20 billion through a share offering with pre-emptive subscription rights for existing shareholders. The offering was fully subscribed for 232,934,758 new shares. Afterwards, the share capital totalled DKK 9,317,390,340 and consisted of 931,739,034 shares with a nominal value of DKK 10 each. Share-related key figures have been adjusted retrospectively in accordance with IAS 33, “Earnings per share”. The adjustment factor was calculated as 1.0807.

Danske Bank Fact Book Q3 2012

1.4 Ratings Danske Bank rating overview The credit rating agencies each use their own rating scales, on which the highest possible ratings are AAA and Aaa (see the table below). Ratings in categories AAA/Aaa through BBB/Baa are considered "investment grade", indicating only a marginal risk that the issuer will default. The Danske Bank Group is currently rated by the three large international credit rating agencies: Moody's, Standard & Poor's (S&P) and Fitch Ratings. In the first nine month of 2012 , Fitch Ratings maintained Danske Bank’s A/F1(negative outlook), while S&P and Moody’s lowered Danske Banks’s ratings in May 2012. S&P lowered Danske Bank’s long- and short-term ratings one notch from A/A-1 to A-/A-2. Both ratings are now on stable outlook. A general downgrade of many European banks by Moody’s in the first half of 2012 affected a number of Danish banks including Danske Bank. Moody’s lowered Danske Bank’s long-term rating two notches from A2 to Baa1 and its short-term rating one notch from P-1 to P-2. These ratings are also now on stable outlook. Moody’s ratings in particular are affected by the fact that Denmark has not yet designated systemically important financial institutions [SIFIs]. Mortgage bonds and mortgage-covered bonds issued by Realkredit Danmark are rated AAA by S&P (stable outlook). In 2012, Realkredit Danmark began collaboration with Fitch Ratings, and in June, Realkredit Danmark’s bonds were rated AAA by Fitch Ratings.

Accounting principles The Group has not changed its significant accounting policies from those followed in Annual Report 2011. A complete description of the Group’s critical and significant accounting policies can be found under Note 1 and Note 45 in Annual Report 2011.

Accounting policies and estimates Management’s estimates and assumptions of future events that will significantly affect the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities underlie the preparation of the consolidated financial statements. The estimates and assumptions that are deemed critical to the consolidated financial statements are •the fair value measurement of financial instruments •the measurement of loans and advances •the measurement of goodwill •the measurement of liabilities under insurance contracts •the measurement of the net obligation for defined benefit pension plans •the recognition of deferred tax assets The estimates and assumptions are based on premises that management finds reasonable but which are inherently uncertain and unpredictable. The premises may be incomplete, unexpected future events or situations may occur, and other parties may arrive at other estimated values. For further description of the Group’s significant risks and external conditions that may affect the Group, see Annual Report 2011 and Risk Management 2011.

1.5 Accounting principles and presentation

Danske Bank Fact Book Q3 2012

1.5 Accounting principles and presentation (continued)

Standards and interpretations not yet in force The International Accounting Standards Board (IASB) has issued a number of amendments to the International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRSs) that have not yet come into force. Similarly, the International Financial Reporting Interpretations Committee (IFRIC) has issued a new interpretation that has not yet come into force. The sections below explain the changes that are likely to affect the Group’s financial reporting. In October 2010, the IASB reissued IFRS 9, Financial Instruments. The aim of the reissuance project is, once the amendments to IFRS 9 are completed, to let the standard replace IAS 39 in its entirety. IFRS 9 now provides principles for classification and derecognition of financial instruments. Principles for impairment and hedge accounting are expected to follow in 2012 or 2013. The IASB is also considering changes to the principles for classification. IFRS 9 incorporates the existing derecognition principles of IAS 39. Meaningful classification of financial instruments is not possible without information about the future parts of IFRS 9 to clarify the overall accounting effects of the standard. The IASB ended its project on consolidation in May 2011 by issuing a number of new International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS 10, IFRS 11 and IFRS 12) and revised standards (IAS 27 and IAS 28). With these standards, the IASB has established a uniform definition of control to be used for determining whether an entity should be consolidated and enhanced disclosure requirements for consolidated and non-consolidated entities, joint arrangements and associates. The standards, which have not yet been adopted by the EU, must be implemented in 2013, at the latest. The Group does not expect the new requirements to significantly change its consolidation of businesses. In May 2011, the IASB issued IFRS 13, Fair Value Measurement. The standard introduces a new definition of fair value and provides guidance on how to measure fair value as well as disclosure requirements for fair value. IFRS 13 applies when another standard requires fair value to be used or disclosed. The standard, which has not yet been adopted by the EU, must be implemented in 2013, at the latest. The Group does not expect IFRS 13 to significantly affect its financial results. In June 2011, the IASB reissued IAS 19, Employee Benefits. The amended standard eliminates the option of deferring the recognition of actuarial gains and losses on defined benefit pension plans, known as the “corridor method”. The present value of pension obligations and the fair value of plan assets must be recognised in the balance sheet instead. The amended standard will be implemented on 1 January 2013. At 30 September 2012, the new requirements would have decreased shareholders’ equity by DKK 731 million (the amount deferred under the corridor method net of tax). The effect on net profit will be immaterial as actuarial gains and losses are recognised in Other comprehensive income. The other comprehensive income and shareholders’ equity items will become more volatile, though. The statement of capital will not be affected as it is already prepared without the use of the corridor method. In December 2011, the IASB clarified the IAS 32 requirements for offsetting financial instruments. The clarification is not expected to increase the offsetting of financial instruments to any significant degree. The IASB also enhanced its IFRS 7 disclosure requirements to include both gross and net amounts when offsetting financial instruments and rights to additional set-off in the event of counterparty default. The changes, which have not yet been adopted by the EU, must be implemented in 2014 and 2013, respectively.
