Stock Exchange Announcement No. 10/2007 - FIH Interim Report January-June 2007
• Best ever net profit for the period of DKK 644.3 million
• Satisfactory business segment growth
• Excellent return on unlisted shares
• Writedowns of loans continually modest
Net profit for the
period Net profit for the period amounted to DKK 644.3 million, an increase of
DKK 68.3 million compared with the same period last year.
Return on equity before tax came to 21.9 per cent against 24.0 per cent in the
first half of 2006, and 17.8 per cent after tax against 19.4 per cent for the
same period of 2006.
Activities Lending activities continue to grow, and all lending segments meet
or exceed ex-pectations and thus reported an increase of 6 per cent in total
lending volume since the beginning of the year. Especially the new business
segment Property Finance has shown a better-than-expected growth rate compared
with the target for the first half of 2007. All lending units have benefited
from the opportunity to offer even broader services to FIH customers as a
result of the added synergies with the new FIH business segments.
The volume of deposits has developed favourably for the first half of 2007 and
has reached DKK 20 billion against DKK 6.6 billion at the beginning of the
year.
Within Capital Markets especially the Financial Solutions and Sales & Trading
de-partments show positive earnings development.
FIH Partners A/S performed well in the first six months and has carried out 12
transactions this year, which is above expectations.

Net interest and fee
income
Net interest and fee income amounted to DKK 617.1 million, up 11 per cent from
the figure for the same period of 2006.
Interest income from loans and other receivables rose by 33 per cent to DKK
1,916.4 million. The rise is mainly attributable to a higher average nominal
interest rate on the loan portfolio compared with 2006.
Interest on bonds came to DKK 347.4 million, up from DKK 206.4 million for the
first half of 2006. Average bond holdings were considerably higher in 2007 and
the coupon rate was also higher than in 2006.
Interest on derivative financial instruments, mainly interest income and
interest ex-penses linked to swaps, amounted to DKK 12.9 million against a
negative DKK 69.0 million for the first half of 2006. FIH uses swaps to hedge
interest rate risks and in the general management of interest rate risks and
for trading with custom-ers.
Overall, interest income increased by DKK 875.5 million, to DKK 2,541.2
million, compared with the same period in 2006.
Interest expenses increased by a total of DKK 838.8 million, to DKK 2,006.8
mil-lion, compared with the first half of 2006.
Fee and commission income increased by DKK 26 million, to a total of DKK 103.4
million, compared with the same period of last year. The increase in earnings
may be attributed to the activities established in the investment banking area,
as well as to higher commission income from credit approvals, etc.
Overall, net interest and fee income rose by DKK 62.8 million to a total of DKK
617.1 million for the first half of 2007.

Equity and

DKK 6,735 million at the end of 2006.
Subordinated debt amounted to DKK 2,994 million, an increase of DKK 1,412
mil-lion on the figure at the end of 2006. FIH has raised a subordinated loan
in Q1 on EUR 200 mio which is the cause to the increase in subordinated loans.
Inclusive of the net profit for the period the solvency ratio for the group was
11.5 per cent at the end of June 2007 relative to 10.0 per cent at the end of
2006. Simi-larly, the core capital ratio (tier 1) was 8.3 per cent which is the
same as at the end of 2006.
Credit risk Credit risk means the risk of loans or other claims not being paid
off because the borrower is unwilling or unable to pay at the agreed time.
At least once a year, individual credit facilities are reviewed. As part of
this review, new financial information is examined and ratings are updated,
among other things.
Monitoring of credit facilities is undertaken centrally using FIH's credit
system, con-taining all material information on the size and utilisation of
facilities, collateral se-curity provided and estimated realisable value, etc.
The Credit department continuously monitors the scope, diversification and
quality of the loan portfolio, reporting its findings on an ongoing basis to
the Executive Board and periodically to the Board of Directors.
Rating models are used, along with individual customer credit ratings.
Financial institutions are rated using a separate model, while the largest
customer segment, corporate customers, is rated using the internally developed
Corporate model.
The Corporate model categorises customers into 12 rating classifications, 12
being the best. The model also calculates the probability that, within the next
12 months, the individual customer will be unable to meet his financial
obligations towards FIH.
Loan portfolio diversification by rating class exclusive of loans to the public
sector is shown below.
Rating classes 9-12 correspond to investment grade as defined by the credit
rating agencies, while rating classes 4-8 are below investment grade, although
being of acceptable credit quality. Rating classes 3-2 comprise customers with
increased risk, corresponding to the single B segment defined by the rating
agencies. Rating 1 comprises the weakest and most risky customers,
corresponding to the C seg-ment as defined by the rating agencies. The chart
below shows that the credit quality has decreased slightly for the first half
of 2007.

customers)

Market risk Market risk is the risk of a loss as a result of changes in market
value of FIH's as-sets and liabilities and off-balance sheet transactions due
to changes in market conditions. Market risk includes interest rate and
exchange rate risks and risk re-lated to equity trading.
The market risk related to the bank's total balance sheet (inclusive of the
risk not related to the trading book), stated as Value at Risk for interest
rate, exchange rate and equity trading amounted to DKK 19 million at the end of
June 2007.
The Value at Risk method looks at the whole portfolio in the calculation of
markets risks associated with financial assets. As a result, not only the
standard deviation, but also the correlation between the portfolio assets is
taken into account. Conse-quently, the Value at Risk method summarises the
total risk related to the bank's balance sheet by one figure and expressed in
Danish kroner. Thus, Value at Risk indicates the maximum loss that FIH may be
expected to suffer in a single day, at a 99 per cent probability.
Funding and
liquidity An important element of FIH's funding strategy has been to diversify
the funding into new markets in Europe and into new investor segments. Special
attention has been devoted to increasing the deposit base from existing and new
customers.
This activity has proven successful for the first half of 2007 tripling
deposits from DKK 7 billion to DKK 20 billion. Deposits now account for
approximately 21 per cent of FIH's total funding.
While traditionally FIH has based long-term funding on Euro Market EMTN issues,
the majority of the funding has been raised on new markets during 2007.
For the first time in many years, FIH has issued large bond series on the
Danish market. In addition, a relatively large fixed-rate GBP loan and issues
in CHF and SEK have also contributed significantly to the long-term funding,
which for the first half amounted to DKK 15.5 billion, corresponding to
two-thirds of the required level for the entire 2007.
Liquidity has also been increased considerably during the first half of 2007.
The bond holdings and short-term deposits in other banks amounted to DKK 33
billion at the end of June 2007. The liquidity also consists of committed loan
facilities of DKK 20 billion, including a newly established facility with ATP,
the largest pension fund in Denmark. Thus the total liquidity resources amount
to DKK 53 billion.
Merger It has been decided to merge FI Holding A/S (parent company) with FIH
Erhvervs-bank A/S in the second half year with effective date 1 January 2007.
The merger provides an administrative relief. The merger will have no effect on
FIH's financial statements and the expectations for 2007. Consequently,
Kaupthing Bank hf. is the direct owner of FIH Erhvervsbank A/S.
Other remarks The financial report for the first half of 2007 is unaudited.
No particular uncertainty has effected the recognition and measurement in the
in-terim report first half 2007.
Expectations for FIH result full-year 2007. Earnings and the development of the
bank's business activities have exceeded expectations for the first half of the
year.
The new business segments Investment Banking and Capital Markets develop
fa-vourably. The number of business transactions is high and FIH Partners A/S
has seen a high growth rate in business volume. The high level of activity is
expected to continue.
The return on the bank's portfolio of unlisted shares has been significant for
the first half of the year, and this development is expected to continue in the
second half of the year, thus the performance of unlisted shares for the year
will exceed 2006 earnings.
Expenses have risen for the first six months as a result of increased activity
and the continued development of new business segments. The expenses for the
full year 2007 are expected to exceed the 2006 level considerably.
The Danish economy continues to perform well, which impacts the bank
positively. At the same time the bank's loan portfolio develops as expected. In
the first half of the year, FIH has reversed DKK 10 million worth of net
writedowns and due to the favourable economic climate; losses and writedowns
for 2007 are expected to be modest.
As a consequence of the positive result for the first half of 2007 and above
expec-tations for the second half of the year, FIH Erhvervsbank A/S expects a
profit for the full year of approximately DKK 1.2 billion, which is an upward
adjustment of DKK 200 million compared with the announcement after the first
quarter of 2007.

Share and option plans
Employee shares
In February 2005, FIH launched a share plan for all employees. The shares were
allocated in proportion to salaries and will be held in trust until and
including 2010. A shareholders' agreement has been concluded with the parent
company of FIH Erhvervsbank A/S, FI-Holding A/S, governing the right,
respectively the obligation, of employees to sell the shares to FI-Holding A/S.
FIH Erhvervsbank A/S is subject to no further obligations under the plan.
Option plans
Plan 1
In 2004, FIH Erhvervsbank A/S launched a share option plan for a broad group of
employees. The options are allocated over a period of three years, with three
tranches of a nominal value of DKK 6 million. Allocations are made individually
for each employee in 2004, 2005 and 2006. The options may be executed as
follows: tranche 1 may be converted in the years 2008-2010, tranche 2 in the
years 2009-2010 and tranche 3 in the year 2010. In the years in question,
options may be executed only during a 30-day period following the publication
of the company's annual report. The conversion price will be revalued by 7 per
cent a year starting in 2008.
Plan 2
A supplementary plan was launched in 2006 for employees that were hired
subsequently. Options under this plan are allotted over a three-year period in
the form of three tranches of a nominal value of DKK 1.6 million. Options are
allotted individually for each employee in 2006, 2007 and 2008. Options may be
exercised in the following way: tranche 1 may be converted during the years
2010-2012, tranche 2 during the years 2011-2012 and tranche 3 in the year 2012.
The conversion price is revalued by 7 per cent a year starting in 2008.
Kaupthing Bank hf. launched an option plan for all employees of the Kaupthing
Bank Group in 2005. This plan covers the period 2005-2009 and includes 3.9
million options, all of which were allotted in 2005. Option holders may
exercise up to one-third of the op-tions allotted during the period 20 January
- 25 February in each of the years 2007, 2008 and 2009.
At year-end 2006, Kaupthing Bank hf. launched a supplementary option plan for
