2Q14 Earnings Release

 

In 2Q14, net income from government and private securities increased 109% or Ps.296.2 million QoQ mainly due to higher income from government securities, specifically LEBAC/NOBAC, and a higher volume also of LEBAC/NOBAC. On an annual basis, net income from government and private securities increased Ps.535.4 million.

 

Also in this quarter, a decrease of 55% or Ps.31.3 million in income from Guaranteed Loans and in CER Adjustment was observed, mainly due to a decrease in the present value of figures published by the BCRA (Communication "A" 5180 and supplementary). On an annual basis, income from Guaranteed Loans and in CER Adjustment increased Ps.17.8 million.

 

Income from differences in quoted prices of gold and foreign currency deeply decreased 95% or Ps.643.8 million QoQ due to less FX position revaluation caused by the deceleration in the depreciation of the Argentine Peso. On an annual basis, also a decrease of 74% or Ps.100.8 million was experienced.

 

Other financial income decreased 77% or Ps.170.4 million compared to 1Q14 mainly due to lower income from on shore forward foreign currency transactions. On an annual basis, the decrease was 16% or Ps.9.8 million.
