NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED CONDENSED
INTERIM FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
AS OF MARCH 31, 2024
(Amounts stated in thousands
of Argentine pesos in constant currency –Note 2.1.5.)
(Translation of Financial statements originally
issued in Spanish – See Note 54)
1. General Information
1.1. Information on Banco BBVA Argentina
S.A.
Banco BBVA Argentina S.A. (hereinafter,
either “BBVA Argentina”, the “Entity” or the “Bank”) is a corporation (“sociedad anónima”)
incorporated under the laws of Argentina, operating as a universal bank with a network of 242 national branches.
Since December 1996, BBVA Argentina
is part of the global strategy of Banco Bilbao Vizcaya Argentaria S.A. (hereinafter, either “BBVA” or the “Parent”),
which directly and indirectly controls the Entity, by holding 66.55% of the share capital as of March 31, 2024.
These
consolidated condensed interim financial statements include the Entity and its subsidiaries (collectively referred to as the “Group”).
Basis of consolidation is described in Note 2.2.
Part of the Entity's capital stock
is publicly traded and has been registered with the Buenos Aires Stock Exchange, the New York Stock Exchange, and the Madrid Stock Exchange.
1.2 Evolution
of the macroeconomic situation and the financial and capital systems
Over the past few years, the Argentine
financial market has been subject to a prolonged volatility period in the market value of government and private financial instruments
including a high country risk premium, an increase in the official exchange rate of the Argentine peso to the US dollar, an increase in
interest rates and a significant acceleration of the pace of inflation (see note 2.1.5 “Measurement unit”).
Particularly, as regards the U.S. dollar
price, since the end of 2019 the gap between the official U.S. dollar price -mainly used for foreign trade- and the market alternative
values, reaching caps of around 200%. As of the date of these financial statements, the referred gap is approximately 21%.
As to the management of the federal
public debt, a restructuring process has taken place including different voluntary swaps and agreements reached with the so-called Paris
Club and the International Monetary Fund.
In this context, on December 10, 2023,
the new Argentine administration took office, and issued a series of emergency measures. Some of the main goals entail, among other relevant
issues, softening economic regulations, reducing the fiscal deficit mainly through a decrease in expenditure, including lowering different
types of subsidies. Likewise, the Argentine peso devalued by about 55% with respect to the US dollar, which has sped up the pace of inflation,
being the interannual inflation measured based on the INDEC’s CPI 289% as of the date of issuance of these financial statements.
The comprehensive program pursued by
the new Administration includes economic, legal, foreign relations, infrastructure and other reforms. On December 20, 2023, Emergency
Decree No. 70/2023 was issued establishing a significant number of reforms regarding which different players filed constitutional protection
actions in Court in order to stop them from being implemented. In addition, as of the date of issuance of the accompanying financial statements,
a bill including issues such as delegated powers to the Federal Executive, and tax, labor, and social security reforms, among others,
is under discussion.
In addition, the domestic and international
macroeconomic context gives rise to a certain degree of uncertainty regarding the future as regards its global economic recovery.
|
-11 - |
|
In view of the above, the Entity's
Management permanently monitors the evolution of the abovementioned situations in the international and local markets, in order to determine
the possible actions to be taken and identify possible impacts on its equity and financial position, which may require disclosure in the
financial statements of future periods.
2. Basis for the preparation of these
financial statements and applicable accounting standards
2.1. Presentation
basis
2.1.1. Applicable Accounting Standards
These consolidated condensed interim
financial statements of the Bank were prepared in accordance with the financial reporting framework set forth by the BCRA. (Communication
“A” 6114 as supplemented by the BCRA). Except for the exceptions established by the BCRA which are explained in the following
paragraph, such framework is based on International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) as issued by the International Accounting Standards
Board (IASB) and adopted by the Argentine Federation of Professionals Councils in Economic Sciences (FACPCE, for its acronym in Spanish).
The abovementioned international standards include the IFRS, the International Accounting Standards (IAS) and the interpretations developed
by the IFRS Interpretations Committee (IFRIC) or former IFRIC (SIC).
Out of the exceptions set forth by
the BCRA to the application of current IFRS, the following affects the preparation of these consolidated condensed interim financial statements:
| – | Within the framework of the convergence
process to IFRS established by Communication “A” 6114, as amended and supplemented, the BCRA provided that for fiscal years
starting on or after January 1, 2020, financial institutions defined as “Group A” according to BCRA regulations, as such is
the case of the Entity, are required to start to apply paragraph 5.5 “Impairment” of IFRS 9 “Financial Instruments”
(paragraphs B5.5.1 through B5.5.55) except for exposures to the public sector, considering the exclusion set forth by Communication “A”
6847. |
Had the abovementioned paragraph 5.5.
“Impairment” been applied in full, according to an estimate made by the Entity, as of March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023,
its shareholders’ equity would have been reduced by 11,745,942 and 14,193,158, respectively.
Except for what was mentioned in the
previous paragraphs, the accounting policies applied by the Entity comply with the IFRS that have been currently approved and are applicable
in the preparation of these consolidated condensed interim financial statements in accordance with the IFRS as adopted by the BCRA as
per Communication “A” 7899. In general, the BCRA does not allow the early application of any IFRS, unless otherwise specified.
These financial statements have been
approved by the Board of Directors of Banco BBVA Argentina S.A. on May 22, 2024.
2.1.2. Figures stated in thousands of
pesos
These consolidated condensed interim
financial statements expose figures stated in thousands of Argentine pesos in terms of purchasing power as of March 31, 2024 and are rounded
to the nearest amount in thousands of pesos.
The Entity and its subsidiaries consider
the Argentine peso as their functional and presentation currency.
|
-12 - |
|
2.1.3. Presentation of Statement
of Financial Position
The Entity presents its Statement of
Financial Position in order of liquidity, according to the model set forth in Communication “A” 6324 of the BCRA.
Financial assets and financial liabilities
are generally reported in gross figures in the Statement of Financial Position. They are offset and reported on a net basis only if there
is a legal and unconditional right to offset them and Management has the intention to settle them on a net basis or to realize assets
and settle liabilities simultaneously.
These consolidated condensed interim
financial statements were prepared on the basis of historical amounts, except for certain species which were valued at Fair value through
Other Comprehensive Income (OCI) or at Fair Value through Profit or Loss. In addition, in the case of derivatives, both assets and liabilities
were valued at Fair Value through profit or loss.
2.1.4. Comparative information
The consolidated statement of financial
position as of March 31, 2024 is comparatively presented with the year-end, while the consolidated condensed statements of income, other
comprehensive income, changes in shareholders' equity, and cash flows and the related notes for the three-month period ended March 31,
2024, are comparatively presented with the balances of the same period of the previous year.
The figures of comparative information
have been restated in order to consider the changes in the general purchasing power of the currency and, as a result, are stated in the
measuring unit current as of the end of the reporting period (see “Measuring unit” below).
2.1.5. Measuring Unit
These consolidated condensed interim
financial statements as of March 31, 2024 have been restated to be expressed in the purchasing power currency as of that date, as set
forth in IAS 29 “Financial Reporting in Hyperinflationary Economies” and considering, in addition, the particular rules issued
by the BCRA in Communications “A” 6651, 6849, as amended and supplemented, which established that such method should be applied
to financial statements for fiscal years starting on, and after January 1, 2020 and defined December 31, 2018 as transition date.
IFRS requires that the financial statements
of an entity whose functional currency is that of a hyperinflationary economy be restated in constant currency. In order to achieve uniformity
in the identification of such an economic environment, IAS 29 establishes (i) certain non-exclusive qualitative indicators consisting
of analyzing the behavior of the population, prices, interest rates and salaries in view of the evolution of price indexes and the loss
of purchasing power of the currency, and (ii) as a quantitative characteristic, which is the condition most commonly considered in practice,
to verify whether the cumulative inflation rate in three years approaches or exceeds 100%. Due to several macroeconomic factors, three-year
inflation was above this figure, while the national government's targets and other available projections indicate that this trend will
not be reversed in the short term.
Such restatement should be made as
if the economy has always been hyperinflationary, using a general price index that reflects the changes in the purchasing power of currency.
In order to make such restatements, a series of indexes prepared and published on a monthly basis by the Argentine Federation of Professional
Councils of Economic Sciences (“FACPCE”), which combines the consumer price index (CPI) as from January 2017 (base month:
December 2016) with the domestic wholesale price index (IPIM, as per its Spanish acronym) published by INDEC until such date, computing
for November and December 2015, for which the INDEC did not published any information on the variation of the IPIIM, the variation of
the CPI in the City of Buenos Aires.
|
-13 - |
|
Considering the index referred to above,
inflation for the three-month period ended March 31, 2024 and 2023 was 51.62% and 21.73%, respectively, and for the fiscal year ended
December 31, 2023, was 211.41%.
Below is a description of the main
impacts of applying IAS 29 and the restatement process of financial statements set forth by Communication “A” 6849, as supplemented,
of the BCRA:
| a) | Description of the main aspects
of the restatement process of the statement of financial position: |
| i. | Monetary items (those with a fixed
nominal value in local currency) are not restated, as they are already expressed in the measuring unit current as of the end of the reporting
period. In an inflationary period, holding monetary assets generates a loss of purchasing power and holding monetary liabilities generates
a gain in purchasing power, provided that such items are not subject to an adjustment mechanism that may offset these effects to some
extent. Net monetary gain or loss is included in income/loss for the reporting period. |
| ii. | Assets and liabilities subject
to adjustments pursuant to specific agreements are adjusted according to such agreements. |
| iii. | Non-monetary items measured at
their current values at the end of the reporting period are not restated for their presentation in the statement of financial position,
but the adjustment process must be completed in order to determine in terms of constant measuring unit, the gain or loss generated for
holding those non-monetary items. |
| iv. | Non-monetary items measured at
historical cost or at a value current as of a date prior to the end of the reporting period are restated at indexes that reflect the variation
occurred in the general price index as from the date of acquisition or restatement until the closing date, and then the restated amounts
of said assets are compared with the relevant recoverable values. Charges to income or loss for the period of depreciation of property
and equipment and amortization of intangible assets, as well as any other consumption of non-monetary assets are determined based on the
new restated amounts. |
| v. | The restatement of non-monetary
assets in terms of a measuring unit current at the end of the reporting period without an equivalent adjustment for tax purposes results
in a taxable temporary difference and the recognition of deferred tax liabilities, whose balancing entry is recognized in income or loss
for the period. |
| b) | Description of the main aspects
of the restatement process of the statements of income and other comprehensive income: |
| i. | Expenses and income are restated
as from the date of their booking, except those income or loss items that reflect or include in their determination the consumption of
assets in purchasing power currency of a date prior to the booking of the consumption, which are restated taking as basis the date of
origination of the asset with which the item is related; and also except for income or loss arising from comparing two measurements expressed
in purchasing power currency of different dates, for which it is necessary to identify the amounts compared, restate them separately,
and make the comparison again, but with the amounts already restated. |
| ii. | Gain or loss on net monetary position
will be classified according to the item that originated it, and is presented in a separate line reflecting the effect of inflation on
monetary items. |
| c) | Description of the main aspects
of the restatement process of the statement of changes in shareholders’ equity: |
| i. | As of the transition date (December
31, 2018), the Entity has applied the following procedures: |
| a) | Equity items, except those stated
below, are restated as from the date on which they were subscribed for or paid-in, as set forth in Communication “A” 6849
for each particular item. |
| b) | Reserves, including the reserve
for first time application of IFRS, were maintained at their nominal value as of the transition date (non-restated legal amount). |
| c) | Restated retained earnings are
determined according to the difference between restated net assets as of the transition date and the rest of the components of initial
equity restated as described above. |
|
-14 - |
|
| d) | Balances of other accumulated
comprehensive income were restated as of the transition date. |
| ii. | After the restatement as of the
transition date stated in (i) above, all the shareholders’ equity components are restated by applying the general price index from
the beginning of the fiscal year and each variation of those components is restated from the date of contribution or from the moment such
variation occurred by other means, restating the balances of other accumulated comprehensive income according to the items that give rise
to it. Under BCRA requirements, the restatement of share capital and additional paid-in capital is disclosed under “Capital adjustments”
account. |
| d) | Description of the main aspects
of the restatement process of the statement of cash flows: |
| i. | All items are restated in terms
of the measuring unit current as of the end of the reporting period. |
| ii. | Monetary gain or loss on the components
of cash and cash equivalents are disclosed in the statement of cash flows after operating, investing and financing activities, in a separate
line and independent from them, under “Gain/loss on net monetary position of cash and cash equivalents”. |
2.2. Basis of consolidation
The consolidated condensed interim
financial statements comprise the Entity’s and its subsidiaries’ financial statements (the “Group”) as of March
31, 2024 and December 31, 2023.
Subsidiaries are all entities controlled
by the Bank. The Bank controls an entity when it is exposed to, or has rights to, variable returns from its continued involvement with
the entity and has the ability to manage the operating and financial policies of that entity, in order to affect those returns.
This is generally observed in the case
of an ownership interest representing more than 50% of its shares entitled to vote.
However, under particular circumstances,
the Entity may exercise control with an ownership interest below 50% or may not exercise control even with an ownership interest above
50% in the shares of an investee.
When assessing if an Entity has power
over an investee and therefore, whether it controls the variability of its yields, the Entity considers all the relevant events and circumstances,
including:
| – | The purpose and design of the investee. |
| – | The relevant activities, the decision-making process on these
activities and whether the Entity and its subsidiaries can manage those activities. |
| – | Contractual agreements such as call options, put options and
settlement rights. |
| – | If the Entity and its subsidiaries are exposed to, or entitled
to, variable yields arising from their interest in the investee, and are empowered to affect their variability. |
Subsidiaries are fully consolidated
as from the date on which effective control thereof is transferred to the Entity and they are no longer consolidated as from the date
on which such control ceases. These consolidated condensed interim financial statements include the Entity’s and its subsidiaries’
assets, liabilities, profit or loss and each component of other comprehensive income. Transactions among consolidated entities are fully
eliminated.
Any change in the ownership interest
in a subsidiary, without loss of control, is booked as an equity transaction. Conversely, if the Entity loses control over a subsidiary,
it derecognizes the related assets (including goodwill), liabilities, non-controlling interest and other equity components, while any
resulting gain or loss is recognized in profit or loss, and any retained investment is recognized at fair value at the date of loss of
control.
|
-15 - |
|
The financial statements of subsidiaries
have been prepared as of the same date and for the same accounting periods as those of the Entity, using the related accounting policies
consistently with those applied by the Entity. If necessary, the relevant adjustments are made to the financial statements of subsidiaries
so that the accounting policies used by the Group are uniform.
Besides, non-controlling interests
represent the portion of income or loss and shareholders’ equity that does not belong, either directly or indirectly, to the Entity.
Non-controlling interests are exposed in these financial statements in a separate line in the Statements of Financial Position, of Income,
Other Comprehensive Income and Changes in Shareholders’ Equity.
As of March 31, 2024 and December 31,
2023, the Entity has consolidated its financial statements with the financial statements of the following companies:

| (1) | Consolidar Administradora de
Fondos de Jubilaciones y Pensiones S.A. (undergoing liquidation proceedings) “Consolidar A.F.J.P. S.A. (undergoing liquidation proceedings)”:
a corporation incorporated under the laws of Argentina undergoing liquidation proceedings. On December 4, 2008, Law No. 26425 was enacted,
providing for the elimination and replacement of the capitalization regime that was part of the Integrated Retirement and Pension System,
with a single pay-as-you go system named the Argentine Integrated Retirement and Pensions System (SIPA). Consequently, Consolidar A.F.J.P.
S.A. ceased to manage the resources that were part of the individual capitalization accounts of affiliates and beneficiaries of the capitalization
regime of the Integrated Retirement and Pension System, which were transferred to the Guarantee Fund for the Sustainability of the Argentine
Retirement and Pension Regime as they were already invested, and the Argentine Social Security Office (ANSES) is now the sole and exclusive
owner of those assets and rights. Likewise, on October 29, 2009, the ANSES issued Resolution No. 290/2009, whereby retirement and pension
fund managers interested in reconverting their corporate purpose to manage the funds for voluntary contributions and deposits held by
participants in their capitalization accounts had 30 business days to express their intention to that end. On December 28, 2009, based
on the foregoing and taking into consideration that it is impossible for Consolidar A.F.J.P. S.A. to comply with the corporate purpose
for which it was incorporated, it was resolved, at a Unanimous General and Extraordinary Shareholders’ Meeting to approve the dissolution
and subsequent liquidation of that company effective as of December 31, 2009. |
On December 7, 2010, Consolidar A.F.J.P.
S.A. (undergoing liquidation proceedings) filed a lawsuit for damages against the Argentine government under case No. 40.437/2010. The
lawsuit was ratified by BBVA Banco Francés in its capacity as the Company’s majority shareholder. On July 1, 2021, a decision
rejecting the claim was issued. On August 9, 2022, Room I of the Federal Court of Appeals in Contentious and Administrative Matters ratified
the trial court decision. On August 25, 2022, a federal extraordinary appeal was filed against the abovementioned resolution, which was
partially accepted in regard to the federal issue at stake and rejected the request concerning the grounds of arbitrariness through the
court decision dated September 15, 2022. Considering the partial rejection, an appeal was filed with the Argentine Supreme Court of Justice
on September 21, 2022. As of the date of issuance of the accompanying financial statements, neither the outcome of the legal process referred
to nor the final assessment of the case by the Argentine Supreme Court of Justice can be estimated. Moreover, in the hypothetical case
that there was an unfavorable outcome and legal costs were to be paid by Consolidar AFJP S.A. (in liquidation) and that its equity was
not sufficient to do so, the Bank would bear such costs, reserving its right to claim that the portion related to the remaining shareholder
be reimbursed.

The Board of Directors of Banco BBVA
Argentina S.A. considers that there are no other companies or structured entities that should be included in the consolidated condensed
interim financial statements as of March 31, 2024.
Trusts
The Group acts as a trustee for financial,
management and guarantee trusts (see Note 50). Upon determining if the Group controls the trusts, the Group has analyzed the existence
of control, under the terms of IFRS 10. Consequently, how power is configured on the relevant activities of the vehicle, the impact of
changes in returns over those Structured Entities on the Group, and the relation of both have been evaluated on a case-by-case basis.
In all cases, it has been concluded that the Group acts as an agent and therefore does not consolidate those trusts.
Mutual funds
The Group acts as fund manager in various
mutual funds (see Note 51). To determine whether the Group controls a mutual fund, the aggregate economic interest of the Group in such
mutual fund (comprising any carried interests and expected management fees) is usually assessed, and it is considered that investors have
no right to remove the fund manager without cause. The Group has concluded that it has no control over any of these mutual funds.
2.3. Summary of
significant accounting policies
These consolidated condensed interim
financial statements as of March 31, 2024 have been prepared in accordance with the financial reporting framework set forth by the BCRA
mentioned in Note 2.1.1 “Applied accounting policies”, which in particular for consolidated condensed interim financial statements
is based on IAS 34 “Interim Financial Reporting”.
In preparing these consolidated condensed
interim financial statements, in addition to what is explained in Notes 2.1.5 “Measuring Unit" and 2.5 "Regulatory changes
made this year", the Entity has consistently applied
|
-18 - |
|
the basis of presentation and consolidation,
significant accounting policies and judgments, estimates and accounting assumptions described in the consolidated financial statements
for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2023, already issued, except as indicated in Note 2.1.1.
These consolidated condensed interim
financial statements include all the information necessary for an appropriate understanding by the users thereof, of the basis for preparation
and presentation used, as well as the relevant events and transactions occurred after the issuance of the latest annual consolidated financial
statements for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2023. However, these consolidated condensed interim financial statements do not include
all the information or all the disclosures required for annual consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with IAS 1 “Presentation
of Financial Statements”. Therefore, these consolidated condensed interim financial statements should be read in conjunction with
the annual consolidated financial statements for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2023, already issued.
2.3.1. Going concern
Bank Management assessed its capacity
to continue as a going concern and concluded that it has the resources to continue in the business in the near future. Management is not
aware of any material uncertainty that could compromise the Bank’s capacity to continue as a going concern. Therefore, these consolidated
financial statements were prepared on a going concern basis.
2.4. Accounting
judgments, estimates and assumptions
The preparation of these consolidated
condensed financial statements in accordance with IFRS requires the preparation and consideration, by the Entity’s and its subsidiaries’
Management, of significant accounting judgments, estimates and assumptions that impact in the reported balances of assets and liabilities,
income and expenses, as well as in the determination and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities as of the end of the reporting
period.
The entries made are based on the best
estimate of the probability of occurrence of different future events. In this sense, the uncertainties associated with the estimates and
assumptions adopted may result in the future in final results that would differ from such estimates and require significant adjustments
to the reported balances of the assets and liabilities affected. Accounting judgments, estimates and assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing
basis and their effect is recognized prospectively.
The most significant accounting judgments,
estimates and assumptions included in these financial statements were the same as those described in Notes 2.4.1, 2.4.2 and 2.4.3 to the
consolidated financial statements as of December 31, 2023, already issued.
2.5. Regulatory
changes introduced during this fiscal year
In the fiscal year beginning January
1, 2024, the following amendments to IFRS became effective, which have not had a significant impact on these consolidated condensed interim
financial statements taken as a whole:
Amendments to IAS 1: Classification
of current and noncurrent liabilities with covenants
In January 2020 and October 2022, the
IASB issued amendments to IAS 1 Presentation of Financial Statements specifying the requirements to classify liabilities as current or
non-current. The amendments clarify: (i) what it mean by a right to defer settlement; (ii) That a right to defer must exist at the end
of the reporting period; (iii) that such classification is unaffected by the likelihood that an entity will exercise its right to defer;
(iv) that only if an embedded derivative in a convertible liability is itself an equity instrument would the terms of a liability do not
affect its classification; and (v) disclosures.
|
-19 - |
|
The IASB decided that if an entity's
right to defer payment of a liability is subject to an entity’s compliance with the required covenants only at a date subsequent
to the reporting period ("future covenants"), the entity has the right to defer payment of the liability even if the entity
had not been compliant at the end of the reporting period.
The amendments also clarify that the
requirement of the right to exist at the end of the reporting period applies to covenants that the entity must comply with at the reporting
date or earlier, regardless of whether compliance is evidenced at that date or at a later date.
Amendment to IFRS 16 – Lease
liability in a sale and leaseback:
In September 2022, the IASB issued
amendments to IFRS 16, specifically on the requirements that a lessee-seller uses to measure the lease liability arising in a sale and
leaseback transaction, to ensure that the lessee-seller does not recognize any amount of gain or loss that relates to the right-of-use.
The application of these requirements will not prevent the lessee-seller from recognizing, in profit or loss, any gain or loss related
to the partial or total termination of a lease. The amendment does not prescribe specific measurement requirements for lease liabilities
arising from a subsequent lease. The initial measurement of lease liabilities arising from a subsequent lease may result in the seller-lessee
determining 'lease payments' that are different from the general definition of lease payments. The seller-lessee should develop and apply
an accounting policy that results in information that is relevant and reliable in accordance with IAS 8.
Amendments to IAS 7 and IFRS 7 -
Disclosures: Supplier Finance Arrangements
In May 2023, the IASB issued amendments
to IAS 7 “Statement of Cash Flows” and IFRS 7 “Financial Instruments: Disclosures”, which specify the information
requirements to be disclosed to enhance the current requirements, the purpose of which is helping financial statement users to understand
the effects of supplier finance agreements on the entity’s liabilities, cash flows and exposure to liquidity risk.
These amendments require an entity
to provide information about the impact of supplier finance arrangements on liabilities and cash flows, including the terms and conditions
of those arrangements, the quantitative information on liabilities related to those arrangements at the beginning and end of the reporting
period and the type and effect of non-cash changes in the carrying amounts of those arrangements. The information on those arrangements
is required to be aggregated unless the individual arrangements have dissimilar or unique terms and conditions. In the context of the
quantitative liquidity risk disclosures required by IFRS 7, supplier finance arrangements are included as an example of other factors
that might be relevant to disclose.
2.6. New pronouncements
Pursuant to Communication “A”
6114 issued by the BCRA, as the new IFRS are approved, or the current IFRS are modified or repealed and, once such changes are adopted
by the Argentine Federation of Professional Councils of Economic Sciences (FACPCE) by means of Notices of Adoption, the BCRA shall issue
a statement announcing its approval for financial institutions. In general, the early application of any IFRS is not permitted, unless
specifically permitted at the time of adoption.
The standards and interpretations applicable
to the Entity, issued but ineffective as of the date of these consolidated condensed interim financial statements are disclosed below.
The Entity will adopt these standards, if applicable, when they are effective:
Amendments to IAS 21 - Lack of exchangeability
In August 2023, the IASB issued amendments
to IAS 21 relating to the “Lack of exchangeability”. The amendment to IAS 21 specifies how an entity should assess whether
a currency is exchangeable and how it
|
-20 - |
|
should determine a spot exchange rate when
interchangeability is lacking. A currency is considered to be exchangeable for another currency when an entity is able to obtain the other
currency without undue delay and through markets or exchange mechanisms that create enforceable rights and obligations. If a currency
is not exchangeable for another currency, an entity is required to estimate the spot exchange rate at the measurement date. An entity's
purpose in estimating the spot rate is to reflect the rate at which an orderly exchange transaction would take place at the measurement
date between market participants under prevailing economic conditions. The amendments state that an entity may use an unadjusted observable
exchange rate or other estimation technique.
When an entity estimates a spot exchange
rate because a currency is not exchangeable for another currency, it should disclose information that enables users of the financial statements
to understand how the fact of that currency not being interchangeable affects, the entity's performance, financial position and cash flows.
These amendments will be effective from January 1, 2025. The Entity is evaluating the effects that this amendment would have on the Financial
Statements.
IFRS 18 - Presentation and Disclosure
in Financial Statements
In April 2024, the IASB issued IFRS
18 “Presentation and Disclosures in Financial Statements”, addressing the disclosure format for profit or loss in the financial
statements, the performance measures defined by management and the aggregation/breakdown of information in disclosures. This regulation
will replace IAS 1 and is effective as from January 1, 2027. The Bank is assessing the effects that this regulation would have on the
financial statements.
2.7. Transcription
to the books
As of the date of these consolidated
condensed interim financial statements, they are in the process of being transcribed to the Book of Balance Sheets for Publication and
result. In addition, the accounting entries are in the process of being transcribed to the relevant books and records, in accordance with
applicable laws in force.

In the consolidated financial statements,
the (current and deferred) income tax assets of a Group entity will not be offset with the (current and deferred) income tax liabilities
of another Group entity because they are related to income tax amounts borne by different taxpayers and also because they do not have
legal rights before tax authorities to pay or receive any amounts to settle the net position.

11.5. Inflation adjustment for tax
purposes
Law No. 27,430 of Tax Reform, as amended
by Laws 27,468 and 27,541, sets forth the following as regards the inflation adjustment for tax purposes, effective for fiscal years started
on or after January 1, 2018:
| i. | Such adjustment will be applicable
in the fiscal year in which the percentage variation of the general consumer price index at national level (CPI) exceeds 100% in the thirty-six
months prior to the closing of the fiscal year being settled; |
| ii. | Regarding the first, second and
third fiscal years as from January 1, 2018, the procedure will be applicable in the event that the variation of such index, calculated
from the beginning and until the closing of each of those fiscal years, exceeds 55%, 30% and 15% for the first, second and third year
of application, respectively; |
| iii. | The effect of the positive or
negative tax inflation adjustment, as the case may be, related to the first, second and third fiscal years beginning on January 1, 2018,
is allocated one-third in that fiscal year and the remaining two-thirds, equally, in the two subsequent fiscal years; |
| iv. | The effect of the positive or
negative inflation adjustment corresponding to the first and second tax years starting on or after January 1, 2019, one-sixth must be
imputed to the tax year in which the adjustment is determined and the remaining five-sixths in the immediately following tax periods;
and |
| v. | For tax years beginning on or
after January 1, 2021, 100% of the adjustment may be deducted in the year in which it is determined. |
As of March 31, 2024, the parameters
established by the income tax law to apply the inflation adjustment for tax purposes are met and the effects arising from the application
of such adjustment as provided by law have been included when booking current and deferred income tax.
11.6. Income tax
corporate rate:
Law No. 27,630, enacted on June 16,
2021 through Decree No. 387/2021, set forth for fiscal years starting on or after January 1, 2021, a tax rate scale scheme of 25%, 30%
and 35% to be progressively applied according to the level of taxable net income accumulated as of each fiscal year end. In these financial
statements, the Entity and its subsidiaries have determined current income tax using the tax rate applicable to the total expected income
for the year, while deferred income tax balances were measured using the progressive tax rate that is expected to be in effect when the
temporary differences are reversed.
11.7. Other tax
matters
- Inflation
adjustment for tax purposes. Fiscal years 2016, 2017 and 2018.
On May 10, 2017, May 10, 2018 and May
13, 2019, and based on related case law, the Entity’s Board of Directors approved the filing of actions for declaratory judgment
of unconstitutionality of section 39 of Law No. 24,073, section 4 of Law No. 25,561, section 5 of Decree No. 214/02 issued by the Argentine
Executive, Law No. 27,468 and any other regulation whereby the inflation adjustment mechanism provided for under Law No. 20,628, as amended,
is considered not applicable due to the confiscatory effect in the specific case, for fiscal years 2016, 2017 and 2018. Consequently,
the Entity filed its income tax returns for those fiscal years taking into consideration the effect of those restatement mechanisms.
|

|
The net impact of this measure on nominal
values was an adjustment to the income tax assessed for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2016 in the amount of 1,185,800 (in nominal
values), for fiscal year ended December 31, 2017, in the amount of 1,021,519 (in nominal values), and for fiscal year ended December 31,
2018, in the amount of 3,239,760 (in nominal values).
Through Memorandum No. 6/2017 dated
May 29, 2017, the BCRA, without resolving on the decisions adopted by the Entity's authorities or the Entity's right regarding the action
filed, in its capacity as issuer of accounting standards, requested the Entity to record a provision for contingencies included in “Liabilities”
in an amount equivalent to the income recorded, as it considers that “a reassessment of the income tax by applying the inflation
adjustment is not contemplated by the BCRA regulations”.
In response to this Memorandum, the
Entity filed the related answer and confirmed its position by providing the relevant supporting documentation. Notwithstanding the foregoing,
the Entity recorded the requested provision, pursuant to the accounting standards prescribed by the regulator for this case.
On June 8, 2020, the Federal Court
on Administrative Matters (JCAF 12-23) ruled upon the action for declaratory judgment filed on May 12, 2017, upholding the complaint and
thus declaring that the prohibition to apply the inflation adjustment mechanism for the purposes of the income tax return filed by the
Bank for fiscal year 2016 is not applicable to the instant case.
The appeals filed against the judgment
were granted on August 6, 2020, and the case was submitted to the Appellate Court for consideration. On December 9, 2020, the Federal
Appellate Court on Administrative Matters (Courtroom II) dismissed the appeals, thus confirming the judgment rendered by the court of
original jurisdiction. The tax authority Administración Federal de Ingresos Públicos (“AFIP” or the “Tax
Authority” or the “National Tax Authority”) filed an extraordinary appeal against the judgment, but then withdrew it
through a motion filed on February 1, 2021.
In addition, the Bank reversed the
provision set up for fiscal year 2016 at the request of the BCRA, recognizing a benefit in the first quarter of 2021 in the amount of
1,185,800 in nominal values (14,574,202 in values restated as of March 31, 2024).
On June 14, 2021, the Court of First
Instance rendered judgment in respect of the action for declaratory judgment of unconstitutionality for fiscal year 2017 in favor of the
Bank’s position. After appealing the judgment to the Appellate Court, the Bank filed the basis for the appeal but on September 3,
2021 the tax authority filed a brief withdrawing the appeal filed. Although the Appellate Court did not accept the withdrawal because
the documentation submitted did not fulfill the necessary conditions, since no basis for the appeal was finally filed, we understand that
the appeal will be declared void.
On September 30, 2021, the Court determined
that the proceedings were set for the agreement to be entered. On November 2, 2021, AFIP filed a motion ratifying the withdrawal of the
appeal filed with respect to the merits of the case. On November 3, 2021 the Court ordered to proceed with the case for an agreement to
be entered. Finally, on May 10, 2022, the Appellate Court considered that AFIP had withdrawn its appeal with respect to the judgment on
the merits.
On June 25, 2021, the Bank notified
the BCRA about the reversal of the provision set up pursuant to Memorandum No. 6/2017 issued by the BCRA concerning the income tax reassessment
due to the inflation adjustment for tax purposes for fiscal years 2017 and 2018 for a total amount of 4,261,279 in nominal values (47,203,615
in values restated as of March 31, 2024), since, based on the assessment made and on its legal and tax advisors’ opinion, the Entity
believes that it is more probable than not that it will obtain a favorable final judgment in respect of these fiscal years. The Entity
notified the BCRA of the criteria adopted, to which the BCRA gave its consent.

On October 5, 2022, the Federal Contentious
Administrative Trial Court No. 2 issued a favorable decision on the unconstitutionality action filed with respect to the regulations banning
the application of title VI of the adjustment for inflation in the 2018 income tax return. After appealing the judgment, on November 17,
2022, we filed a brief stating grievances in connection with legal costs, and on November 27, 2022, AFIP filed its brief.
On July 11, 2023, the decision issued
by Room I of the Federal Court of Appeals in Contentious and Administrative Matters confirming the trial court decision in favor of the
Bank was notified. On August 8, 2023, AFIP filed an extraordinary appeal, which was partially granted.
On September 19, 2023, the Court of
Appeals partially accepted the extraordinary appeal submitted to the Argentine Supreme Court of Justice. At present, it is awaiting for
the Argentine Supreme Court of Justice to decide on the appeals filed by the AFIP (Federal Public Revenue Agency).
Based on the foregoing, as of March
31, 2024, the Entity has no liabilities for the items referred to above.
- Inflation
adjustment for tax purposes. Fiscal year 2019
As concerns fiscal
year 2019, the Entity assessed its income tax liability applying the inflation adjustment for tax purposes according to the terms of the
Public Emergency Law, which maintains the inflation adjustment mechanism set out under Title VI of the Income Tax Law. Nevertheless, one
sixth of the resulting inflation adjustment amount should be recognized during that fiscal year, with the remaining five sixths being
computed, in equal parts, over the five immediately following fiscal years. Such deferral has been recognized as a deferred tax asset.
On August 21, 2020, the Bank filed
a request for refund at the administrative stage pursuant to the provisions of the first paragraph of section 81 of Law No. 11,683 (as
compiled in 1998 and as amended) to recover the amount of 4,528,453 (in nominal values).
Upon no response from the tax authorities,
on June 17, 2021 the Entity filed a motion for expedited proceedings and on November 18, 2021 a legal action was filed before National
Court on Federal Administrative Matters No. 10 (Court Clerk’s Office No. 24).
Pursuant to the financial reporting
framework set forth by the BCRA, the Entity does not record assets in relation to contingent assets derived from the action filed.
- Inflation
adjustment for tax purposes. Fiscal year 2020
In relation to fiscal year 2020, the
Entity determined the income tax as of December 31, 2020 by applying the inflation adjustment for tax purposes in accordance with the
provisions of the Public Emergency Law.
On May 26, 2021, and based on related
case law, the Entity’s Board of Directors approved the filing of an action against the federal tax authorities (AFIP-DGI) for declaratory
judgment of unconstitutionality of section 194 of the Income Tax Law (as compiled in 2019) and/or of such rules that prohibit the full
application of the inflation adjustment for tax purposes, on the grounds that they would lead to the assessment of a confiscatory income
tax liability for fiscal year 2020; therefore allowing the full application of the mechanism set forth in section 106, paragraphs a) through
e), Title VI of the Income Tax Law in that fiscal year.
Consequently, as of December 31, 2021,
the Entity accounted for an adjustment in nominal values to the income tax liability assessed for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2020
in the amount of 5,817,000 (78,829,842 in restated values), with the ensuing impact on deferred tax assets by 5,033,000 (decrease) (69,871,646
in restated values) and on the income tax expense of 784,000 (8,958,202 in restated values).
On August 15, 2023, a trial court
decision sustaining the claim filed by the Bank was issued. On August 22, 2023, we appealed the decision by which the Bank should bear
the costs and requested that they be borne by
|
-34 - |
|
the losing party. On August 23, 2023, the
AFIP appeals the subject matter of the case requesting that the decision be revoked.
- Inflation
adjustment for tax purposes. Fiscal year 2021
On June 30, 2022, the Bank filed a
prior administrative claim before the AFIP in order to obtain the recognition of the corrective tax return in less filed on June 30, 2022
with respect to the Income Tax for the 2021 tax year for 309,000 (in nominal values), on the grounds that the partial application of the
correction mechanisms of the inflation adjustment under the provisions of Section 93 of the Income Tax Law is unconstitutional, since
it affects the principle of reasonableness, equality, contributive capacity and confiscatory nature.
On June 6, 2023, a prompt resolution
was requested. In view of the AFIP's silence, on September 20, 2023, a claim was filed before the Federal Court on Contentious Administrative
Matters No. 1, Clerks’ Office No. 1.
- Inflation
adjustment for tax purposes. Fiscal year 2022
On June 2, 2023, the Bank filed an
unconstitutionality action against the AFIP-DGI to obtain a ruling declaring the unconstitutionality of section 93 of Income Tax Law (as
revised in 2019) or other regulations preventing the comprehensive application of the tax adjustment for inflation, as it leads to a confiscatory
income tax assessment for 2022 and, consequently, allows for the comprehensive adoption of the cost and amortization adjustment method
provided for by sections 62 through 66, 71, 87 and 88 of Income Tax Law.
On June 6, 2023, Court No. 9 forwarded
the proceedings to the prosecutor's office to rule on jurisdiction. Once the prosecutor's opinion was submitted on June 8, the Court declared
its jurisdiction.
- Requests
for refund. Fiscal years 2013, 2014 and 2015
Regarding fiscal years 2013, 2014 and
2015, the Entity assessed income tax without applying the inflation adjustment for tax purposes, consequently a higher tax was paid in
the amounts of 264,257, 647,945 and 555,002, respectively, in nominal values.
Based on grounds similar to those stated
in the first paragraph “Inflation Adjustment for Tax Purposes. Fiscal Years 2016, 2017 and 2018,” on November 19, 2015, an
administrative action requesting a refund for fiscal years 2013 and 2014 was filed, and the related judicial action was filed on September
23, 2016 for both fiscal years, given that no answer was received from AFIP.
In turn, on April 4, 2017, a request
for refund was filed in relation to the higher amount of tax paid for fiscal year 2015. Likewise, on December 29, 2017, the related judicial
action was filed for this fiscal year.
On October 21, 2020, the Entity was
notified that Court of First Instance on Administrative Matters No. 1 rendered judgment upholding the request for refund for fiscal year
2014. AFIP filed an appeal against such judgment before the Appellate Court.
On November 10, 2020, the Court of
First Instance rendered judgment sustaining BBVA Argentina's complaint, thereby ordering the tax authorities to refund the amount of 264,257
(nominal values) paid in excess of the income tax liability for fiscal year 2013, plus accrued interest. The National Tax Authority filed
an appeal against the judgment. Finally, on May 6, 2021, the Federal Appellate Court on Administrative Matters (Courtroom I) confirmed
the appealed judgment on the merits, therefore dismissing the appeal brought by the national tax authorities.
On April 27, 2021, the Appellate Court
rendered judgment in favor of the Bank concerning the refund of income tax for fiscal year 2014. In its judgment, the Appellate Court
substantially confirmed the judgment rendered by the Court of First Instance on the merits, upholding the confiscatory nature of the tax.
|
-35 - |
|
The National Tax Authority brought
extraordinary appeals against both judgments, and the Appellate Court has rejected such appeal with respect to the claims of arbitrariness
and serious institutional implications.
On June 28, 2022, the Federal Appellate
Court on Administrative Matters (Courtroom VII) rendered judgment in favor of the Bank as regards the recovery of the income tax for tax
period 2015 and AFIP appealed such judgment.
On July 12, 2023, the Bank was notified
of the decision issued by the Argentine Supreme Court of Justice with respect to the 2014 tax period rejecting the extraordinary appeal
and the appeal filed by Tax Authorities. Thus, the favorable decisions issued by previous courts recognizing a 647,946 reimbursement (in
nominal values) for such period plus the interest calculated in accordance with the weighted average deposit interest rate published by
the BCRA became final. Such calculation was filed.
On August 7, 2023, we were notified
of the decision issued by the Argentine Supreme Court of Justice with respect to the 2013 tax period rejecting the extraordinary appeal
and the appeal filed by Tax Authorities, thus rendering the decisions issued by previous court instances final. Those decisions recognized
that the Bank should be reimbursed 264,257 (in nominal values) for such period plus interest, and determined that the BCRA weighted average
deposit interest rate should be applied until July 31, 2019, and the monthly effective rate published by the AFIP in compliance with Ministry
of Finance 598/19, as from August 1, 2019, and until the actual payment is made. The calculation was filed.
As to the 2013 tax period, on December
27, 2023, the AFIP deposited on the bank account in the Bank’s name the amount of 1,037,484 (in nominal terms), comprising 264,257
(in nominal terms) as principal and 773,227 (in nominal terms) as principal and interest.
As a result of the abovementioned favorable
decisions by the Argentine Supreme Court of Justice and the collection of one of such cases, the Bank booked a receivable of 8,083,923
in nominal terms (9,744,753 in values restated as of March 31, 2024).
On October 25, 2023, the Appellate
Court rendered favorable judgment in the case relating to the request for refund of the Income Tax due to the application of the tax inflation
adjustment in 2015, confirming the first instance judgment.
The AFIP and the Entity filed extraordinary
appeals. At present, the appeals filed are pending resolution.

Investment properties include pieces
of real estate leased to third parties. The average term of lease agreements is 6 years. Subsequent renewals are negotiated with the lessee.
The Group has classified these leases as operating leases, since these arrangements do not substantially transfer all risks and benefits
inherent to the ownership of the assets. The rental income is recognized under “Other operating income” on a straight-line
basis during the term of the lease.

It includes the estimated amounts to
pay highly likely liabilities which, in case of occurrence, would generate a loss for the Entity.
The breakdown of and changes in provisions
recognized for accounting purposes are included in Exhibit J. However, below is a brief description:
| - | Contingent commitments:
it reflects the credit risk arising from the assessment of the degree of compliance of the beneficiaries of unused overdrafts, unused
credit card balances, guarantees, sureties and other contingent commitments for the benefit of third parties on behalf of customers, and
of their financial position and the counter guarantees supporting those transactions. |
| - | Termination benefit plans:
for certain terminated employees, the Bank (fully or partially) bears the cost of private health care plans for a certain period after
termination. The Bank does not cover any situations requiring medical assistance, but it only makes the related health care plan payments. |
| - | Administrative, disciplinary
and criminal penalties: administrative penalties imposed by the Financial Information Unit, even if there were court or administrative
measures to suspend payment and regardless of the status of the disciplinary proceedings. |
| - | Other: it reflects the
estimated amounts to pay tax, labor and commercial claims and miscellaneous complaints. |
In the opinion of the Group’s
Management and its legal advisors, there are no significant effects other than those stated in these consolidated financial statements,
the amounts and repayment terms of which have been recorded based on the current value of those estimates, considering the probable date
of their final resolution.
Contingent liabilities have not been
recognized in these consolidated condensed interim financial statements and are related to 141 claims brought against the Bank, including
civil and commercial claims, all of which have arisen in the ordinary course of business. The estimated amount of such claims is 21,054,
out of which a cash disbursement of approximately 7,700 is expected for the next 9 months. These claims are primarily related to lease-purchase
agreements and petitions to secure evidence. The Group's Management and legal advisors consider that the probability that these cases
involve cash disbursements is possible but not probable and that the potential cash disbursements are not material.

Financial assets at fair value mainly
consist of Argentine Bonds, Argentine Treasury Bills, Ledivs (BCRA Local Bills). Likewise, financial derivatives are classified at fair
value. Such derivatives include futures measured at the price of the market where they are traded (Rofex and MAE) and foreign currency
NDF (non-delivery forwards), put options, and interest rate swaps.
40.2. Transfers
between hierarchy levels
The Entity monitors the availability
of market information in order to assess the category of financial instruments in the different hierarchies at fair value, as well as
the resulting determination of inter-level transfers at each closing, considering the comparison of hierarchy levels of the current period
versus previous year levels.
40.2.1.
Transfers from Level 1 to Level 2
There are no transfers from L1 to
L2 for the instruments measured at fair value as of period-end.
40.2.2.
Transfers from Level 2 to Level 1
The following instruments measured
at fair value through profit or loss or through OCI were transferred from Level 2 to Level 1 of the fair value hierarchy:

- |
|
77,907,155 |
Treasury bonds in pesos adjusted by Cer 2%. Maturity 11-9-2026 |
|
- |
|
51,527 |
The hierarchy level of the instruments
detailed above was compared with the previous year levels.
The transfer is due to the fact
that the bonds were listed on the market the number of days necessary to be considered Level 1.

|
40.3. Valuation
techniques for Levels 2 and 3
The valuation techniques used for Level
2 securities require observable market data: the spot discount curve in pesos, US dollars, USD curves of corporate bonds (one of the energy
sector and the other of several industries), CER discount curve, the yield curve in pesos arising from ROFEX futures, the yield curve
in pesos arising from futures traded by ICAP Broker, Badlar rate, UVA index, CER index and the spot selling exchange rate published by
Banco de la Nación Argentina (BNA). Below is a detail of valuation techniques for each financial product:
Fixed Income
The assessment of prices at fair value
established by the Bank for fixed income consists in considering MAE’s representative prices.
In the case of Argentine Treasury bonds
and bills, MAE’s prices are used; if the bonds are not listed within the last 10 business days, then a theoretical valuation is
made discounting cash flows using the related discount curve. BCRA internal bills in US dollars to be settled in Argentine pesos at the
benchmark exchange rate (LEDIV) are valued at their latest subscription price plus interest accrued since they cannot be transferred and
do not accrue any interest.
In the case of Corporate Bonds in
Dollars, they were valued by determining the present value of future flow of funds with an interest rate curve with comparable corporate
bonds, while corporate bonds in pesos are valued at their latest price plus accrued interest.
SWAPS
For swaps, the theoretical valuation
consists in discounting future cash flows based on the interest rate, according to the estimated curve using bonds in Argentine pesos
at a fixed rate and bills issued by the Argentine government, and/or if there are no bonds in Argentine pesos issued by any comparable
issuer with market prices (bonds issued by the Province of Buenos Aires or by the City of Buenos Aires).
Non-Delivery Forwards
The theoretical valuation of NDFs consists
in discounting the future cash flows to be exchanged pursuant to the contract, using a discount curve that will depend on the currency
of each cash flow. The result is then calculated by subtracting the present values in pesos, estimating the value in pesos based on the
applicable spot exchange rate, depending on whether the contract is local or offshore.
For local peso-dollar swap contracts,
cash flows in pesos are discounted using the yield curve in pesos resulting from the prices of ROFEX futures and the wire transfer US
dollar (dólar divisa) selling exchange rate published by BNA. Cash flows in US dollars are discounted using the Overnight
Index Swap (OIS) international dollar yield curve. Then, the present value of cash flows in dollars is netted by converting such cash
flows into pesos using the wire transfers dollar selling exchange rate published by BNA.
For local peso-euro swap contracts,
cash flows in pesos are discounted using the yield curve in pesos resulting from the prices of ROFEX futures and the wire transfer Euro
selling exchange rate published by BNA. Cash flows in euros are discounted using the yield curve in euros. Then, the present value of
cash flows in euros is netted by converting such cash flows into pesos using the wire transfer euro selling exchange rate published by
BNA.
|
-52 - |
|
For offshore peso-dollar swap contracts,
cash flows in pesos are discounted using the yield curve in pesos resulting from market quoted forward prices sourced from ICAP and the
wire transfer US dollar selling exchange rate published by BNA. Cash flows in dollars are discounted using the OIS yield curve. Then,
the present value of cash flows in dollars is netted by converting such cash flows into pesos using the Emerging Markets Traders Association
(EMTA) US dollar spot exchange rate.
The valuation techniques used for Level
3 financial assets require the use of variables that are not based on observable market inputs. Below is a detail of the valuation techniques
used for each financial asset:
Investments in equity
instruments
Investments in equity instruments for
which the Group has no control, joint control or a significant influence are measured at fair value through profit or loss and at fair
value through other comprehensive income according to the latest available information of such companies.
Corporate bonds
The valuation of corporate bonds classified
as Level 3 has been determined by the Entity on the basis of the latest available market price (or subscription price, if the security
had not been listed in a market since the date of issuance) plus interest accrued to date. If the security has paid coupon, then the “clean”
price is calculated. If principal was repaid, then repayment amount is deducted and the “dirty” price is recalculated, with
interest being accrued until year-end.

40.5. Fair value
of assets and liabilities not measured at fair value
Below is a description of methodologies
and assumptions used to assess the fair value of the main financial instruments not measured at fair value, when the instrument does not
have a quoted price in a known market.
| – | Assets and
liabilities with fair value similar to their accounting balance: For financial assets and financial liabilities maturing in less than
three months, it is considered that the accounting balance is similar to fair value. |
| – | Fixed rate financial instruments:
The fair value of financial assets was assessed by discounting future cash flows from market rates at each measurement date for financial
instruments with similar characteristics, adding a liquidity premium (un-observable input) that expresses the added value or additional
cost necessary to dispose of the asset. |
| – | Variable
rate financial instruments: For financial assets and financial liabilities accruing a floating rate, it is considered that the accounting
balance is similar to the fair value.

An appeal was filed on behalf of Banco BBVA Argentina S.A. and its employees asking for the reversal of the decision or otherwise significant
reductions of the amounts involved. On August 24, 2021, the Federal Appellate Court of Mar de Plata resolved to declare the action extinguished
based on the grounds of violation of the reasonable term and consequently acquit Banco BBVA Argentina S.A., Pablo Bistacco, Graciela Alonso,
Néstor O. Baquer, Hugo Benzan, Mariela Espinosa, Jorge Fioritti, Liliana Paz, Alberto Giménez, Jorge Elizalde, Elizabeth
Mosquera, Carlos Barcellini, Carlos O. Alfonzo, Samuel Alanis, Julián Gabriel Burgos, for the facts that were condemned in the
present case for violation of Law No. 19.359, and the relevant regulations. In view of this ruling, the Federal Prosecutor filed an extraordinary
federal appeal. On February 21, 2024, we were notified that the Argentine Supreme Court of Justice rejected the extraordinary appeal filed,
declaring its inadmissibility. Therefore, the decision made by the Federal Court is final and is considered to be res judicata.

Banco BBVA ARGENTINA S.A. Financial
summary proceedings initiated by the B.C.R.A. Notified
on June 28, 2021 and identified under No. 1587, file No. 388/55/21. The charge consists of the alleged breach of paragraph 7.2 of Communication
"A" 6981 by assisting (without prior approval of the BCRA) Cargill S.A. through a checking account overdraft amounting to $
167 million from April 29, 2020 to May 3, 2020, since as it had bonds taken as of April 22, 2020, it should have waited 90 calendar days
without executing repo transactions and/or surety bonds, before being assisted. Likewise, during May and June 2020, Cargill’s checking
account disclosed credit balances, which were generally covered at the end of the day. In this regard, it should be noted that Banco BBVA
Argentina S.A. violated paragraph 7.2 of the revised text of the rules on "Credit Policy", which strictly includes the restriction
on the granting of intraday (within the same day) assistance. The individuals/entities subject to these proceedings were Banco BBVA Argentina
S.A. (30-50000319-3); María Isabel Goiri Lartitegui; Jorge Delfín Luna; Alfredo Castillo Triguero; Juan Manuel Ballesteros
Castellano; Oscar Miguel Castro; Gabriel Eugenio Milstein; Adriana María Fernandez De Melero; José Santiago Fornieles; Darío
Javier Berkman; Carlos Eduardo Elizalde and Nicolás Herbert Bohtligk. The relevant answers to the charges were filed on August
4, 2021. On September 14, 2023, the Resolution of the BCRA was notified, confirming the initial charges and rejecting the defenses regarding
the interpretation of the regulation and the inexistence of intraday financing due to the way the proceeds from collections operate. Therefore,
the breach of the regulations was considered to be proven and a fine was imposed. The amount in pesos of the fines applied is detailed
below. Banco BBVA Argentina S.A. $24,000,000. Board of Directors: Oscar Castro $2,591,589 Gabriel Milstein $ 2,591,589, Isabel Goiri $2,565,930
Adriana Melero $ 2,565,930, Jorge Luna $2,565,930, Alfredo Castillo $ 2,565,930, Juan Manuel Ballesteros $2,565,930. Employees: Carlos
Elizalde $1,710,620, Nicolás Bohtlingk $1,710,620, Darío Berkman $1,710,620, José Fornieles $855,310. TOTAL $47,999,998.
The resolution is appealed.

NOTES TO THE CONDENSED
SEPARATE INTERIM FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
AS OF MARCH 31, 2024
(Amounts stated
in thousands of Argentine pesos in constant currency –Note 2.1.5. to the consolidated condensed interim financial statements)
(Translation of
Financial statements originally issued in Spanish - See Note 41 to the separate financial statements)
1. Basis
for the preparation of separate financial statements
As mentioned in Note 2 to the consolidated
condensed interim financial statements, the Bank presents consolidated financial statements in accordance with the financial reporting
framework set forth by the Argentine Central Bank (BCRA).
These financial statements of the
Bank are supplementary to the consolidated condensed interim financial statements mentioned above and are intended for the purposes of
complying with legal and regulatory requirements.
2. Basis
for the preparation of these financial statements and applicable accounting standards
These separate condensed interim financial
statements of the Bank were prepared in accordance with the financial reporting framework set forth by the BCRA. (Communication “A”
6114 as supplemented by the BCRA). Except for the exceptions established by the BCRA which are explained in the following paragraph, such
framework is based on International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (IASB)
and adopted by the Argentine Federation of Professionals Councils in Economic Sciences (FACPCE, for its acronym in Spanish). The abovementioned
international standards include the IFRS, the International Accounting Standards (IAS) and the interpretations developed by the IFRS Interpretations
Committee (IFRIC) or former IFRIC (SIC).
Out of the exceptions set forth by
the BCRA to the application of current IFRS, the following affects the preparation of these separate condensed interim financial statements:
| – | Within the framework of the convergence
process to IFRS established by Communication “A” 6114, as amended and supplemented, the BCRA provided that for fiscal years
starting on or after January 1, 2020, financial institutions defined as “Group A” according to BCRA regulations, as such is
the case of the Entity, are required to start to apply paragraph 5.5 “Impairment” of IFRS 9 “Financial Instruments”
(paragraphs B5.5.1 through B5.5.55) except for exposures to the public sector, considering the exclusion set forth by Communication “A”
6847. |
Had the abovementioned paragraph 5.5.
“Impairment” been applied in full, according to an estimate made by the Entity, as of March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023,
its shareholders’ equity would have been reduced by 11,745,942 and 14,193,158, respectively.
Except
for what was mentioned in the previous paragraphs, the accounting policies applied by the Entity comply with the IFRS that have been currently
approved and are applicable in the preparation of these separate condensed interim financial statements in accordance with the IFRS as
adopted by the BCRA as per Communication “A” 7411. In general, the BCRA does not allow the early application of any IFRS,
unless otherwise specified.
Furthermore, the BCRA, through Communications
“A” 6323 and 6324, set forth guidelines for the preparation and presentation of the financial statements of financial institutions
for fiscal years beginning on or after January 1, 2018, including the additional reporting requirements as well as the information to
be submitted as Exhibits.
|
-93 - |
|
As this is an interim period, the Entity
has opted to present condensed information, pursuant to the guidelines of IAS 34 “Interim Financial Information”; therefore,
not all the information required for the preparation of complete financial statements under IFRS is included. Therefore, these financial
statements should be read in conjunction with the financial statements as of December 31, 2023. However, explanatory notes of events and
transactions that are material for understanding any changes in the financial position as from December 31, 2023 are included.

3. Significant
accounting policies
Investments in subsidiaries
Subsidiaries are all entities controlled
by the Bank. The Bank controls an entity if it is exposed to, or has rights to, variable returns from its involvement with the entity
and has the ability to affect those returns through its power over the entity. The Bank reassesses whether it has control when there are
changes to one or more of the elements of control.
Ownership interests in subsidiaries
are accounted for using the equity method. They are initially recognized at cost, which includes transaction costs. After initial recognition,
the financial statements include the Bank's share in the profit or loss and OCI of investments accounted for using the equity method,
until the date when the control, significant influence or joint control cease.
The interim financial statements
as of March 31, 2024 of the subsidiaries BBVA Asset Management Argentina S.A.U. and Consolidar Administradora de Fondos de Jubilaciones
y Pensiones S.A. (under liquidation proceedings) were adjusted considering the financial reporting framework set forth by the BCRA in
order to present financial information in constant terms.

Surplus |
|
1,313,603,133 |
|
1,198,894,996 |
(1) The increase
observed in the minimum capital requirement for credit risk is due to the non-compliance with the maximum limit established by the BCRA
for the financing to the non-financial government sector during 15 days of December 2023. According to the provisions of the regulations,
this non-compliance causes an increase in the minimum capital requirement for credit risk for an amount equivalent to 100% of the surplus,
as from the month in which the non-compliance occurs and for as long as it continues. In the case of credit ratios, the computation of
the deviation will be made on the basis of the monthly average of daily surpluses.

REPORTING SUMMARY FOR THE PERIOD ENDED MARCH 31, 2024 (Amounts stated in thousands of Argentine pesos in constant currency –Note 2.1.5. to the consolidated condensed interim financial statements) (Translation of Financial statements originally issued in Spanish - See Note 54 to the consolidated financial statements) |
|
This reporting summary was prepared
on the basis of the consolidated condensed interim financial statements of the Bank were prepared in accordance with the financial reporting
framework set forth by the BCRA. (Communication “A” 6114 as supplemented by the BCRA). Except for the exceptions established
by the BCRA which are explained in the following paragraph, such framework is based on International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS)
as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (IASB) and adopted by the Argentine Federation of Professionals Councils in
Economic Sciences (FACPCE, for its acronym in Spanish). The abovementioned international standards include the IFRS, the International
Accounting Standards (IAS) and the interpretations developed by the IFRS Interpretations Committee (IFRIC) or former IFRIC (SIC).
Out of the exceptions set forth by
the BCRA to the application of current IFRS, the following affects the preparation of these Reporting Summary:
| – | Within the framework of the convergence
process to IFRS established by Communication “A” 6114, as amended and supplemented, the BCRA provided that for fiscal years
starting on or after January 1, 2020, financial institutions defined as “Group A” according to BCRA regulations, as such is
the case of the Entity, are required to start to apply paragraph 5.5 “Impairment” of IFRS 9 “Financial Instruments”
(paragraphs B5.5.1 through B5.5.55) except for exposures to the public sector, considering the exclusion set forth by Communication “A”
6847. |
Had the abovementioned paragraph 5.5.
“Impairment” been applied in full, according to a global estimate made by the Entity, as of March 31, 2024 and December 31,
2023, its shareholders’ equity would have been reduced by 11,745,942 and 14,193,158, respectively.
Except for what
was mentioned in the previous paragraphs, the accounting policies applied by the Entity comply with the IFRS that have been currently
approved and are applicable in the preparation of these consolidated condensed interim financial statements in accordance with the IFRS
as adopted by the BCRA as per Communication “A” 7899. In general, the BCRA does not allow the early application of any IFRS,
unless otherwise specified.
These financial statements as of March
31, 2024 have been approved by the Board of Directors of Banco BBVA Argentina S.A. on May 22, 2024.

“A” 6323 and 6324, set forth guidelines for the preparation and presentation of the financial statements of financial institutions
for fiscal years beginning on or after January 1, 2018, including the additional reporting requirements as well as the information to
be submitted as Exhibits.
As a consequence of the application
of those standards, the Bank prepares its financial statements according to the new financial reporting framework set forth by the BCRA
as of March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023.

an accumulated profit of 34,151,064 as of March 31, 2024, representing a return on average shareholders' equity of 6.59%, a return on

Accumulated net interest income totaled
787,768,517, up by 54.82% compared to March 2023. Such increase was driven by increased premiums on reverse repurchase agreements and
interest on Cer clause adjustments, offset by interest expenses for checking accounts and UVA clause adjustments.
Accumulated net commission income
totaled 50,504,103 accounting for a 14.96% increase compared to March 2023. This increase was generated by higher commission income linked
to credit cards and securities. This increase was offset by higher commission expenses for foreign trade transactions.
As concerns accumulated administrative
expenses and personnel benefits totaled 193,073,067, up by 8.14% vis-a-vis March 2023. This increase was due to higher expenses for other
short-term personnel benefits, taxes and administrative services hired.
Outlook
During the first months of his term
of office, Milei’s administration substantially modified the economic policy framework, and focused its efforts on a considerable
tax and monetary adjustment to reduce inflation. The reduction in the tax deficit during the first months of the year, the relative foreign
exchange stability shown

REPORTING SUMMARY FOR THE PERIOD ENDED MARCH 31, 2024 (Amounts stated in thousands of Argentine pesos in constant currency –Note 2.1.5. to the consolidated condensed interim financial statements) (Translation of Financial statements originally issued in Spanish - See Note 54 to the consolidated financial statements) |
|
subsequent to the significant depreciation
of the Argentine peso in December 2023 in a context of an emergent accumulation of international reserves, and the reduction in economic
activity, allowed for a recent moderation of inflation measured in monthly amounts, although it is still high.
According to BBVA Research, despite
the uncertainty and related risks, it is highly likely that these factors may set the grounds for inflation to decelerate over the next
few months. This would be potentially supplemented by additional measures under the launch of a more comprehensive stabilization program.
BBVA Research estimates that annual inflation will close 2024 at about 155% (re-estimated from 175%, and versus 211% at the end of 2023)
and that GDP will fall by around 4.0% this year (versus a 1.6% drop in 2023). It should be noted that interest rates dropped at a quicker
pace than expected, and they are expected to continue falling some more, as inflation continues to go down.
As of March 2024, private credit
in Argentine pesos grew 171% on y-o-y terms, whereas BBVA Argentina increased its loans portfolio in Argentine pesos by 193%. Neither
the financial system nor BBVA managed to outgrow inflation on y-o-y terms (which reached 287.9% p.a. in March 2024). However, the Bank’s
consolidated market share in total private loans rose 75 basis points, from 9.33% to 10.08% in March 2024, exceeding the two digits for
the first time in over a decade. As to total private deposits, the financial system grew 173%, whereas the Bank’s portfolio rose
194%, without exceeding the inflation level in any case. BBVA Argentina’s consolidated market share in private deposits stood at
7.37%, 54 basis points higher than in the prior year, which stood at 6.83%.
BBVA Argentina continues to monitor
actively its businesses, financial conditions and operating results. It also believes it maintains a competitive position to continue
facing the challenges posed by the environment. The Bank has a low funding cost due to the adequate deposit type composition, a solid
capital and liquidity position and an optimal portfolio quality relative to the financial system.
With respect to ESG, BBVA Argentina
has a corporate responsibility with society, inherent to the Bank's business model, which promotes financial inclusion and education and
supports scientific research and culture. The Bank operates with the utmost integrity, long-term vision and best practices, and is present
through the BBVA Group in the main sustainability indices.
With regards to digitization, our
service offering has evolved in such a way that by the end of December 2023, mobile monetary transactions grew by 71% YoY. During the
quarter, the acquisition of new customers through digital channels exceeded traditional channels by 81%, whereas in March 2023 it was
approximately 76%.
The Bank’s goal for 2024 will
be to maintain its current strength built all over the years, within the framework of a decisive year for Argentina.

REPORT ON THE REVIEW OF INTERIM CONDENSED
CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
To the Directors of
BANCO BBVA ARGENTINA S.A.
CUIT (Argentine taxpayer identification number): 30-50000319-3
Registered office: Av. Córdoba 111
City of Buenos Aires, Argentina
| I. | Report on the financial statements |
Introduction
| 1. | We have reviewed the accompanying interim
condensed consolidated financial statements of BANCO BBVA ARGENTINA S.A. (the “Bank”) and its subsidiaries, which comprise:
(a) the condensed consolidated statement of financial position as of March 31, 2024, (b) the condensed consolidated statements of income
and other comprehensive income, the changes in shareholders’ equity and cash flows for the three-month period then ended, and (c)
a summary of significant accounting policies and other explanatory information included in the notes and exhibits that supplement them. |
Responsibility of the Bank’s Management
and Board of Directors in connection with the financial statements
| 2. | The Bank’s Board and Management are
responsible for the preparation and presentation of the financial statements mentioned in paragraph 1, in conformity with the financial
reporting framework set forth by the Central Bank of Argentina (BCRA) which, as indicated in note 2 to the financial statements mentioned
in paragraph 1, is based on IFRS (International Financial Reporting Standards), and in particular for the condensed interim financial
statements on the International Accounting Standard (“IAS”) 34 "Interim Financial Reporting", as issued by the IASB
(International Accounting Standards Board) and adopted by the FACPCE (Argentine Federation of Professional Councils in Economic Sciences),
including the exceptions established by the BCRA explained in the such note. The Bank’s Board and Management are also responsible
for the internal control they may deem necessary for the interim financial statements to be prepared free of material misstatements, whether
due to errors or irregularities. |
Auditors’ responsibility
| 3. | Our responsibility is to conclude on the
financial statements mentioned in paragraph 1 based on our review, which was performed in accordance with the provisions of FACPCE Technical
Resolution No. 37 and with BCRA minimum external auditing standards applicable to the review of interim financial statements and in compliance
with the ethical requirements relevant to the audit of the Bank’s annual financial statements. A review of interim financial statements
consists of making inquiries, mainly from the persons in charge of |
![](https://www.sec.gov/Archives/edgar/data/913059/000129281424003418/bbarfs1q246k_003.jpg) | | Pistrelli, Henry Martin y Asociados S.R.L. 25 de mayo 487 - C1002ABI Buenos Aires, Argentina | | Tel: (54-11) 4318-1600/4311-6644 Fax: (54-11) 4318-1777/4510-2220 ey.com |
| | | | |
accounting and financial issues, as well as
applying analytical procedures and other review procedures. The scope of a review is considerably narrower than that of a financial statements
audit, therefore, we cannot obtain reasonable assurance that we will become aware of all the material issues that may arise in an audit.
Therefore, we do not express an audit opinion.
| 4. | Based on our review, nothing came to our
attention making us believe that the financial statements mentioned in paragraph 1 are not prepared, in all material respects, in accordance
with the financial reporting framework set forth by the BCRA and referred to in paragraph 2. |
Emphasis on certain aspects disclosed in
the financial statements
| 5. | We would like to draw attention to the information: |
| a) | Note 2. “Basis for the preparation
of these financial statements and applicable accounting standards – Applicable Accounting Standards” where the Bank quantifies
the effects of the application of section 5.5 “Impairment in value” of IFRS 9 “Financial instruments” to financial
assets that comprise exposures to the public sector, which were temporarily excluded from such application through BCRA Communiqué
“A” 6847, which is explained in the note. |
This issue does not change the conclusion stated in paragraph
4, but it should be taken into account by the users of IFRS for interpreting the accompanying financial statements mentioned in paragraph
1.
| 6. | As further explained in Note 54. to the interim
condensed consolidated interim financial statements mentioned in paragraph 1., certain accounting practices used by the Bank to prepare
the accompanying financial statements conform with the financial reporting framework set forth by the BCRA but may not conform with the
accounting principles generally accepted in other countries. |
Other matters
| 7. | We also issued a separate report on the interim
condensed separate financial statements of BANCO BBVA ARGENTINA S.A. as of the same date and for the same periods indicated in paragraph
1. |
| II. | Report on other legal and regulatory requirements |
In compliance with current regulations, we further
report that:
![](https://www.sec.gov/Archives/edgar/data/913059/000129281424003418/bbarfs1q246k_003.jpg) | | Pistrelli, Henry Martin y Asociados S.R.L. 25 de mayo 487 - C1002ABI Buenos Aires, Argentina | | Tel: (54-11) 4318-1600/4311-6644 Fax: (54-11) 4318-1777/4510-2220 ey.com |
| | | | |
| a) | The condensed consolidated
financial statements mentioned in paragraph 1 are being transcribed to the Book of Balance Sheets for Publication and result from books
kept, in their formal respects, in conformity with current regulations considering what is mentioned in note 2.7. |
| b) | As of March 31, 2024,
liabilities accrued in employee and employer contributions to the Integrated Pension Fund System, as recorded in the Bank’s accounting
books, amounted to ARS 3,007,735,375, none of which was due and payable as of that date. |
| c) | The information included
in the “Consolidated Balance Sheet Structure”, the “Consolidated Statement of Income Structure” and the “Consolidated
Cash Flows Structure” of the Reporting Summary for the period ended March 31, 2024, filed by the Bank jointly with the financial
statements to comply with CNV (Argentine Securities Commission) regulations, arises from the Bank’s accompanying interim condensed
consolidated financial statements as of March 31, 2024 and as of March 31, 2023, 2022, 2021 and 2010, which are not included as exhibits.
In addition, we report that the interim condensed consolidated financial statements as of March 31, 2021 and 2020, to which we refer,
which should be read jointly with this report, were reviewed by other auditors who issued their review reports on May 26, 2021 and June
8, 2020, respectively. |
| d) | As stated in note
48 to the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements, the Bank carries shareholders’ equity and a contra account to
eligible assets that exceed the minimum amounts required by relevant CNV regulations for these items as of March 31, 2024. |

accounting and financial issues, as well as
applying analytical procedures and other review procedures. The scope of a review is considerably narrower than that of a financial statements
audit; therefore, we cannot obtain reasonable assurance that we will become aware of all the material issues that may arise in an audit.
Therefore, we do not express an audit opinion.

attention making us believe that the financial statements mentioned in paragraph 1 are not prepared, in all material respects, in accordance
with the financial reporting framework set forth by the BCRA and referred to in paragraph 2. |
Emphasis on certain aspects disclosed in the financial
statements
| 5. | We would like to draw attention to the information
contained in: |
| a) | Note 2. “Basis for the preparation
of these financial statements and applicable accounting standards” where the Bank quantifies the effects of the application of section
5.5 “Impairment in value” of IFRS 9 “Financial instruments” to financial assets that comprise exposures to the
public sector, which were temporarily excluded from such application through BCRA Communiqué “A” 6847, which is explained
in the note. |
This issue does not change the conclusion stated in paragraph
4, but it should be taken into account by the users of IFRS for interpreting the accompanying financial statements mentioned in paragraph
1.
| 6. | As further explained in Note 41. to the interim
condensed separate interim financial statements mentioned in paragraph 1., certain accounting practices used by the Bank to prepare the
accompanying financial statements conform with the financial reporting framework set forth by the BCRA but may not conform with the accounting
principles generally accepted in other countries. |
Other matters

condensed consolidated financial statements of BANCO BBVA ARGENTINA S.A. and its subsidiaries as of the same date and for the same periods
indicated in paragraph 1. |

In compliance with current regulations, we further
report that:

SUPERVISORY COMMITTEE’S REPORT
To the Shareholders of
Banco BBVA Argentina S.A.
Registered office: Av. Córdoba 111
City of Buenos Aires, Argentina
1. Identification of the interim financial statements
subject to review
In our capacity as members of the Supervisory Committee of
Banco BBVA Argentina S.A. (hereinafter, either “BBVA” or the “Entity”) designated at the General Ordinary and
Extraordinary Shareholders’ Meeting held on April 26, 2024, and in compliance with the terms of Section 294 of Argentine Companies
Law No. 19,550, we have reviewed the consolidated condensed interim financial statements and its subsidiaries presented for comparative
purposes as of March 31, 2024, which include the consolidated condensed statement of financial position as of March 31, 2024, the consolidated
condensed statements of income and other comprehensive income, changes in shareholders’ equity, and cash flows for the three-month
period then ended and a summary of the significant accounting policies and other explanatory information included in their respective
supplementary notes and exhibits.
We have also reviewed the separate condensed financial statements
of BBVA as of March 31, 2024, and the separate condensed statement of financial position as of March 31, 2024, the separate condensed
statements of income, other comprehensive income, changes in shareholders’ equity and cash flows for the three-month period then
ended, and a summary of the significant accounting policies and other explanatory information included in their supplementary notes and
exhibits.
The Entity is responsible for the preparation and presentation
of the above-mentioned financial statements in accordance with the financial reporting framework applicable to Financial Institutions
established by the Central Bank of Argentina (BCRA), as well as for the design, implementation and maintenance of such internal control
as the Entity might deem necessary to allow for the preparation of financial statements free from material misstatements.
In discharging our duties, we have taken into consideration
the work performed by the Entity’s external auditors PISTRELLI, HENRY MARTIN Y ASOCIADOS S.R.L., who, on May 22, 2024, issued their
limited review report on the interim financial statements as of March 31, 2024, including an unqualified conclusion.
The review of interim financial statements conducted by such
auditors is substantially lesser in scope than an audit and, therefore, is not sufficient to become aware of all substantial issues that
might arise during an audit. Therefore, the auditors do not render such an opinion on the financial statements referred to in section
I.
Since the Supervisory Committee is not responsible for management
control, the review did not encompass the corporate criteria and decisions of the Entity’s several areas, for such issues are the
exclusive responsibility of the Board of Directors.
3. Supervisory Committee’s Opinion
Based on our review, we have no observations to raise, except
as stated in paragraph 4, on the accompanying interim financial statements of BBVA for the three-month period ended March 31, 2024 referred
to in the first paragraph of Section 1 of this report. Furthermore, such financial statements reflect all substantial facts and circumstances
that are known to us.
4. Emphasis Matter
As explained in Note 2 to the accompanying consolidated and
separate financial statements, such financial statements were prepared by the Entity’s Board of Directors and Management in accordance
with the financial reporting framework set forth by the BCRA. Such financial reporting framework differs from the IFRS in the following
aspects:
| i. | As stated in note 2. to the accompanying consolidated and separate financial
statements, “Basis for the preparation of financial statements”
and note 2. “Basis for the presentation of these financial statements and applicable accounting standards – Applicable Accounting
Standards” where the Bank quantifies the effects of the application of section 5.5 “Impairment in value” of IFRS 9 “Financial
instruments” to financial assets that comprise exposures to the public sector, which were temporarily excluded from such application
through BCRA Communication “A” 6847, which are explained in the note. |
This issue does not change the conclusion stated
in paragraph 3, but it should be taken into account by the users of IFRS for interpreting the accompanying financial statements mentioned
in paragraph 1.
5. Information Required by Applicable Provisions
In accordance with applicable legal and regulatory standards,
we hereby report that:
| i. | The accompanying condensed interim financial statements are pending transcription
into the Financial Statements for Reporting Purposes book, and considering what was mentioned in Note 2.7 to the condensed consolidated
and separate financial statements, they arise from accounting records kept, in all formal aspects, in accordance with the laws in force; |
| ii. | As stated in note 48 to the condensed consolidated and separate financial
statements, the Bank carries shareholders' equity and a contra account to eligible assets that exceed the minimum amounts required by
relevant CNV regulations for these items as of March 31, 2024. |
| iii. | The information included in “Comparative Consolidated Balance Sheet
Structure,” “Comparative Consolidated Statement of Income Structure,” and “Comparative Consolidated Cash Flows
Structure” of the Reporting Summary for the period ended March 31, 2024,” filed by the Bank jointly with the financial statements
to comply with the Argentine Securities Commission (CNV) regulations, arises from the Bank’s accompanying interim condensed consolidated
financial statements as of March 31, 2024 and as of March 31, 2023, 2022, 2021, and 2020, which are not included in the accompanying document.
In addition, we report that the interim condensed consolidated financial statements as of March 31, 2021 and 2020, to which we refer,
which should be read jointly with this report, were reviewed by auditors different than those who issued the accompanying reports and
who issued their review reports on May 26, 2021, and June 8, 2020, respectively. |
| iv. | We further represent that, during the reporting period, we have carried
out all duties, to the extent applicable, set forth in Section 294 of Argentine Companies Law No. 19,550. |
We further represent that any member of this Supervisory Committee
is expressly authorized to individually sign, on behalf of the Supervisory Committee, all documents referred to in the first paragraph
herein and all copies of this report.
City of Buenos Aires, May 22, 2024.
