Results as at 30 June 2023

STRONG ORGANIC GROWTH

BNP Paribas’ diversified and integrated model and its ability to accompany clients and the economy in a comprehensive way by mobilising its teams, resources and capabilities, continued to drive growth in activity and results in the second quarter 2023.
Driven by the strength of the diversified model, revenues rose by 3.3% and operating expenses by 1.0% compared to the second
quarter 2022 (1). Operating expenses were well contained, and thus the Group achieved a positive jaws effect. Thanks to a long-term approach and prudent and proactive risk management, the cost of risk remained low (at 31 bp) and below 40 bp, which is the guidance of the GTS 2025 plan.
The Group achieved a 16.4% (2) increase in its net income compared to the second quarter 2022 (1). The Group’s organic growth in the second quarter of 2023 offset the effects of the Bank of the West sale.
Distributable net income (3), which serves as a basis for calculating the distribution amount to shareholders, came to 3,260 million euros in the second quarter 2023, or a net income per share of 4.72 euros in the first half 2023, up by 16.8% compared to the first half 2022.
These results reflect the Group’s robust intrinsic performance and constitute a solid base for achieving the objectives of the GTS 2025 plan.
The Group has stepped up its policy of engaging with society. It deploys a comprehensive approach and alongside its clients, is committed to transitioning towards a sustainable and lowcarbon economy with clear ambitions and objectives contributing to the advent of a carbon-neutral economy by 2050.

BNP Paribas achieved a very good performance in the second quarter, reflecting the solidity of our diversified model, the efficiency of our platforms, and the Group’s capacity to pursue its development, in order to address the needs of its individual, corporate and institutional clients in all phases of the economic cycle. 
With its “Growth, Technology and Sustainability 2025” strategic plan, the Group continues to develop leading platforms at the service of the European economy, to pursue its technological progress, and to support its clients in their transition towards a more sustainable model. Accordingly, the second quarter was highlighted by a further strengthening of our commitments to the energy transition, which allows us to contribute ever more actively to the transitions of our economies and of our clients.
