inTERiM REPoRT1 JanUaRY - 30 JUnE 2010

The economic growth we saw during the first quarter has continued,

which is indicated by, among other things, the increase in car sales

in Sweden. The number of new registrations is expected to exceed

275 000 units for 2010, which is above the normal level.

Ford’s sale of Volvo Personvagnar AB to the Chinese company

Geely was completed at the beginning of August. The Volvo

dealerships are optimistic, and the order book situation is very positive.

The situation is the same for both Renault and Ford sales.

Other brands that are sold through the Swedish Volvo

dealerships are also moving well, as are trucks,

which are showing increased sales volumes in

all sectors. All in all, we are approaching the

autumn with an air of optimism.

Not least since sales volumes have been

increasing since March. The increase is

affected, not only by new but also used vehicle

sales as well as sales at workshops, which have

been very busy. This benefits Volvofinans Bank

through increased usage of the Volvo Card and Volvo

Truck Card. In addition, we have continued high volumes of fuel.

Sweden’s Riksbank, as expected, raised interest rates at the

beginning of July with the motivation that the Swedish economic

situation is improving. There is also a desire to indicate to Swedish

households that we are moving away from the low interest rate

levels we have had since the beginning of 2009. The indication also

given by a flatter interest curve is that future market interest rates will

remain at reasonable levels, which is positive for car sales.

In April we decided not to apply for a renewal of our affiliation

to the Swedish government’s bank guarantee scheme after the

expiry of our contract on 30th April. The general opinion is that the

Swedish financial market’s functionality have largely recovered from

the effects of the financial crisis. Volvofinans Bank has not taken

advantage of the programme since 3 July 2009, but has instead

financed itself on the market without this guarantee.

Volvofinans Bank reports a successful first half of the year with a profit

of SEK 109.6 million (86.1), an improvement of SEK 23.5 million or

27 %. The stronger profit is the result of somewhat higher margins

and an adaptation of costs. The adaptation of margins to the higher

interest rate levels will not, however, have a significant effect until the

third quarter.

Lending volumes fell slightly (1 %) compared to the previous year,

mainly due to lower vehicle sales in 2009 of both cars and

trucks. The increase in vehicle sales during 2010 will have

a significant effect, first during the second half of the

year. Furthermore the sale of used vehicles has been

historically low at Volvo dealerships, but is now

starting to return to normal. Credit card business

remains at about the same level as last year, but

has increased over recent months.

Credit losses are, as expected, remaining at a low

level and as previously only concern card portfolios.

The increase in losses that has occurred with card

transactions is mainly due to the recession.

As previously, the financing of vehicles shows no losses, which

proves that our business model with the Swedish Volvo dealerships

works well even in times of economic turmoil. Nor has there been

any significant increase in Volvo dealerships’ credit losses during the

period. The Swedish Volvo dealerships’ overall operating profit for the

whole of 2009 increased by just over SEK 400 million and has now

reverted to “normal” levels.

A strong core capital ratio, an historically stable business model

with the Volvo dealerships, the close cooperation with Volvo Cars and

Volvo Trucks, continued minimal credit loss with card transactions

and increased deposit volumes from the general public cause us to

see the future as bright.

BUSINESS MISSIONThe primary task of Volvofinans Bank is to actively support sales

of products marketed by Volvo dealers on the Swedish market by

providing product and sales financing, while reporting favourable

earnings.

DURING THE YEARDuring the year Volvofinans Bank will continue to develop its

financial packages for simpler and more convenient car ownership

– for both private individuals and companies. Further developments

in leasing products, improved saving opportunities and vehicle loans

for private individuals buying vehicles on the private market have or

will be introduced during 2010.

The close co-operation between Volvofinans Bank and Volvo

dealerships creates a forum for a customer oriented and cost

effective product and service development with a long established

sales channel. Volvofinans Bank has arrangements with dealerships in

more than 200 locations throughout the country.

Also in the future, use of the CRM channel which the Volvo

Card enables will be of considerable importance. There are several

channels for tying customers closer to their dealers and thus

enabling better car ownership for all – irrespective of whether it

concerns a truck or car customer, company or private individual. The

positive trend for the Fleet Service business continues, showing an

increased interest in operational leases.

The greater awareness shown by larger company customers of

total costs for vehicle fleets is creating more business opportunities

for Volvofinans Bank.

WHAT WE OFFERThe aim of providing our custom-

ers with economical, convenient

vehicle ownership is reflected in

the products we offer:

• Loans and leases for new and used vehicles that are sold by Swedish Volvo dealerships

• Loans and leases for the truck market

• Volvo Card – car ownership card for both companies and private individuals

• Vehicle fleet administration and financing for large vehicle fleets

• Volvo Truck Card – simplifies costs management for hauliers

• Company car – a product for smaller vehicle fleets

• Personnel car – a simple way of offering employees a company car solution

• Private loan – a loan product for the purchase of used vehicles outside dealerships

• Savings account with attractive interest and free withdrawal.

OWNERSHIp SITUATIONSince its establishment in 1959, Volvofinans Bank has been 50 %

owned by Swedish Volvo dealerships via their holding company AB

Volverkinvest. The Sixth Swedish National Pension Fund (AP-fonden)

owns 40 % and Volvo Car Corporation (Volvo Personvagnar AB) 10 %.

The primary task of Volvofinans Bank is to actively support sales of

products marketed by Volvo dealers on the Swedish market by provid-

ing product and sales financing, while reporting favourable earnings.

Volvofinans Bank AB is the parent company in a Group with a

dormant subsidiary. The subsidiary, Volvofinans Konto Bank AB, was

liquidated in June following withdrawal, by the Swedish Financial

Supervisory Authority on the company’s request, of permission to

conduct banking operations.

VOlUMES/lENDINGSales of new passenger cars in Sweden rose by 34 % compared with

the same period in the previous year. In total 138 079

passenger vehicles were registered (102 794). The

number of Volvo, Renault and Ford registrations

was 40 032 (29 759), and the combined market

share of Volvo and Renault was 29 % (29).

42 % (41) of all passenger car business, new

and used, within the Swedish Volvo dealerships

generates a financial contract with Volvofinans

Bank. New and used vehicle penetration is 45 %

and 38 % respectively. Volvofinans Bank finances the

Swedish Volvo dealers’ truck sales, apart from those that

take place through the AB Volvo-owned Volvo Truck Centre.

Penetration for new trucks was 48 % (50). The total contract portfolio

(loan and leasing contracts) amounted to 187 441 contracts (187 212).

The truck and bus element of the contract portfolio amounts to

8 333 contracts (8 492), which is just over 4 %.

The number of corporate customers for whom Svensk

Vagnparksfinans manages the car administration remains stable.

Administration with cost follow-up was being provided for 31 289

cars (32 491) at the end of the reporting period.

Goods and services purchased using the Volvo Card totalled

approximately SEK 5 billion, and the number of accounts actively

purchasing is half a million per month. Goods and services for SEK

261 million were bought with Volvo Truck Card via the 22 600 card.

The total lend volume for the Group amounted to SEK 22.3 billion

as opposed to SEK 22.6 billion for the previous year.

The truck and bus share of lending was SEK 3.6 billion (3.8), which

corresponds to 16 % of total lending for the previous year.

The Group’s primary segments are the business lines of the

passenger car market and truck market. The geographic distribution

reflects the Group as a whole. The passenger car market segment

includes financing for passenger cars through loans and leases,

vehicle administration and the Volvo Card. The truck market segment

includes financing for trucks and buses as well as Volvo Truck Card.

The operating income, operating profit, number of contracts and

lending volumes for Volvofinans Bank’s lines of business are presented

below. Operating income is defined as the net of interest income,

interest expenses, leasing net, dividends received, net result of

financial transactions, commission income and commission expenses.

Volvofinans Bank is of the opinion that it is not

relevant to divide up its liabilities among the vari-

ous segments. Borrowing is determined by the

total requirement and cannot be attributed to a

specific segment.

INcOMEVolvofinans Bank’s income before credit loss is

SEK 119.0 million (93.0). The primary reason for this improvement

is higher margins and greater interest rate stability. Income

before appropriations and taxes for the period rose by 27 % to

SEK 109.6 million (86.1).

cREDIT RISkS AND cREDIT lOSSESThe Group’s credit risk continues to be very low as most of the credit

risks and residual value risks are borne by the Volvo dealerships.

Problem credits are all receivables that are overdue by more than

90 days. Volvofinans Bank’s problem credits for credit card receivables

total SEK 129.9 million (112.2) and for loan and lease lending

SEK 154.1 million (157.8). The increase in problem credits is due to an

increase in the average liability for credit cards, partly as the result of

higher fuel prices and the economic depression. The dealers bear the

credit risk through recourse agreements for the greater part,

SEK 150.1 million, of the problem credits relating to loans and leases.

There are no loans for which interest concessions have been agreed,

and no property has been received to provide security for receivables.

The confirmed customer losses mainly concern credit card-

transactions. Anticipated credit loss impairment for the household

segment is determined using statistical risk models and for the

corporate segment by means of a manual review.

cApITAl pROcUREMENTFinancial instability has occurred periodically during the first half of the

year causing borrowing margins to increase and later fall back. Liquid-

ity on the market has remained good however, and Volvofinans Bank

has successfully borrowed funds in both the short and long term on

the market via the bank’s commercial paper and MTN programmes re-

spectively. Total outstanding financing on the Swedish and European

capital markets amounted to SEK 11.6 billion at the end of the first half

year.

Volvofinans Bank decided not to apply for a renewal of its

affiliation to the Swedish government’s bank guarantee scheme after

the expiry of its contract on 30th April, 2010.

In addition to market borrowing, operations were financed by

the amount of SEK 4.3 billion in the form of bank loans, as well as

customer deposits of SEK 2.3 billion at the end of the first half year. At

the end of the period, 61 % of long-term financing had a remaining

term of more than one year.

RATINGVolvofinans Bank has international credit ratings from Moody’s

Investors Service as follows:

• Short-term financing: P-2

• Long-term financing: Baa2

On 10th May, Moody’s announced that Volvofinans Bank’s rating

for long-term borrowing had been lowered by one level from Baa1 to

Baa2. The rating for short-term borrowing, P-2, was confirmed at the

same time. Moody´s analysis is available for viewing on our website,

www.volvofinans.se.

FINANcIAl RISkSAs the Group operates within the financial sector, the company is

continuously exposed to a number of financial risks.

Liquidity risk is the risk that Volvofinans Bank’s payment obligations

cannot be met on maturity without significant costs in terms of the

means of payment or – in a worst-case scenario – cannot be met by

any means. For shorter periods of liquidity instability, Volvofinans Bank

has a daily surplus liquidity of SEK 500 – 1 500 million. In order to secure

its ability to pay, Volvofinans Bank has entered into agreements with

banks concerning credit facilities that can be utilised at short notice.

Borrowing with a remaining period of less than one year must be

covered at all times by undrawn credit facilities. The total volume of

available facilities at the end of the first half year was SEK 9.6 billion.

Interest rate risk is the current and future risk that net interest

income declines as a result of unfavourable changes in the interest

rate. The vast majority of Volvofinans Bank’s lending and all borrowing

follow the short-term market interest rate, which involves a limited

interest rate risk.

Currency risk is the risk of unfavourable changes in exchange

rates. All of Volvofinans Bank’s lending is in Swedish kronor and any

borrowing in foreign currency is hedged, thus Volvofinans Bank is not

exposed to fluctuations in exchange rates.

cApITAl ADEQUAcYCapital adequacy means that capital requirements are connected to

the total risk profile of the institute, which in the case of Volvofinans

Bank entails a lower minimum capital requirement.

Volvofinans Bank calculates the capital requirement for credit risk

using the standardised method, which means that all exposures are

allocated to one of fifteen exposure categories with a different risk

weighting for each category.

The capital requirement for operational risk is calculated using the

base indicator method, which means that the capital requirement is

15 % of the average operating income for the last three financial years.

EVENTS AFTER THE BAlANcE SHEET DATENo other significant events have occurred since the end of the

reporting period.
