Nottingham Building Society
27 July 2018
Nottingham Building Society Results for the period ended 30 June 2018 The Nottingham is pleased to present its results for the six months ended 30 June 2018, in what was another period of good progress and performance in the development of our unique 'all under one roof' advice and service proposition for members. Key performance highlights include: * Total assets of almost GBP4.0 billion - a new milestone for the Society; * Gross lending of GBP465m and mortgage book growth of 3.7%; * Strong retail franchise - 7.4% increase in branch balances; * Strong customer advocacy with a net promoter score of 79.1% and 13,000 new customers welcomed; * Group pre-tax profit of GBP6.0m; * Arrears levels remain at a historic low level; and * Strong capital ratios with Common Equity Tier 1 ratio of 14.7% and leverage ratio of 5.2%. David Marlow, Chief Executive of The Nottingham, commenting on the results said "At the beginning of the year we undertook to move forward from our firm foundations, focusing on the four key pillars of growing and rewarding membership; strong financial adequacy; operational excellence and people, culture and community. At the half year point we are pleased to report good progress. In terms of growing and rewarding membership we have welcomed over 13,000 new members to the Society. The seven new branches, which we added to our network at the end of 2017, have performed ahead of expectations and are now fully embedded into our 67 branch network. The growth in popularity of our proposition and franchise is further evidenced in our branch savings balances which have continued their strong growth, rising 7.4% in the period. We were also pleased to celebrate the first birthday of the launch of our innovative members rewards scheme which has been designed to deliver our strategy and reward our members for planning for, and protecting, their financial futures. So far we have rewarded over 7,000 members who have been rewarded with discounts and cashbacks totalling almost GBP400,000, further highlighting the benefits of membership of The Nottingham. Whilst branches remain key to our strategy, we are acutely aware of the significant societal changes taking place around us which is reshaping the way in which customers and potential members expect to receive their advice and service. This has been underscored by the well-chronicled challenges being faced in 2018 by retail businesses of all shapes, sizes and reputation. We expect this shift to be fully reflected in financial services in the months and years ahead and that is why it is essential for us to continue to invest heavily in the Society's capability, both for today and for the future. In 2017, we announced our commitment to a multi-million pound investment to develop our digital capability to complement our growing physical presence. During 2018, we have been working hard and investing to develop a digital platform capable of delivering our unique advice and service proposition, which will combine the best of face-to-face and digital service. Customers and members will see the first step in this journey in the second half of 2018 as we replace our current web portals for online savings and intermediary mortgage business with significantly improved functionality. The Society will launch a cash Lifetime ISA later this summer, as one element of the development of our savings proposition using our new capability. Launching initially in branch, an online offering will be added later in the year opening up The Nottingham to a large and important group of potential new members. Furthermore, we continue to deliver world class service to our members, which is reflected in our Net Promoter Score which has now increased to 79.1%. As the Group focuses on the delivery of its unique strategy, it does so against a backdrop of good financial performance. We have continued to grow the balance sheet delivering GBP465m of gross lending which has contributed to mortgage asset growth of 3.7% in the first six months of the year. As the eighth largest Society, our total asset position at just shy of GBP4.0 billion is a new milestone for the Society. One of our principal responsibilities is to balance effectively the conflicting needs of our savers and borrowers, whilst maintaining sufficient surplus to run the Society, meet our regulatory capital requirements and continue our investment for the future. This continues to be a challenge, particularly in the face of the ultra-competitive low mortgage rate environment, where we have seen average rates for 2 year fixed business below 75% LTV at 1.70% in the first half of the year. We have focused particularly hard on this and are encouraged that the growth in both mortgage and savings balances we are reporting demonstrates that we are striking that balance for members, whilst broadly maintaining our net interest margin at the same level as 2017 at 1.27% (2017:1.29%). This has enabled us to increase net interest income by 4.6% compared to the same period last year. A key element of delivering our strategic plan successfully is to execute our spending plans carefully. This presents a number of challenges to tackle as we grow both the operations of the Society for members today and undertake one of the most significant investments in the Society's history for the future. This has inevitably resulted in increased operating and strategic investment costs, which has resulted in a three basis point increase in cost income ratio to 78.1% and our management expense ratio remaining flat at 1.10% at June 2018. Overall we have delivered a surplus before tax of GBP6.0m. Whilst a decrease in our performance of GBP1.6m over the same period last year, it reflects not only a growing interest income profile but significant investment in our operations today and for the future and the fact that we are now rewarding our members for their membership, as already highlighted. Notwithstanding this, the Society remains well capitalised. This is enabling us to progress our significant investment programme at the current level of surplus, whilst meeting the Board's requirements for capital sustainability, ensuring a strong independent future
for the Society and its members. Market and Outlook The current economic and political picture remains very uncertain dictating that we must remain vigilant in how we manage the Society and protect members' interests but also be cognisant of the significant changes that lie ahead. It remains our intention to continue to grow the membership of the Society and invest in the future as we seek to deliver consistent financial performance in line with what has been achieved in the first half of this year. We will continue to focus on our four strategic pillars of growing and rewarding membership; delivering strength in financial adequacy; striving to deliver first class service across our operations; and continuing to support our communities through our Doing Good Together initiative. The Society remains strong with a clear strategy, which is distinct and increasingly valued. Whilst headwinds and uncertainties remain, the Board of The Nottingham has confidence in its delivery and plans to continue to grow the Society in a safe and secure way, through differentiating ourselves strongly from the big banks and continuing to support and reward our growing membership."
