Santiago, Chile, July 30, 20041-. Banco Santander Santiago (NYSE: SAN) announced today its unaudited results for the second quarter 2004. These results are reported on a consolidated basis in accordance with Chilean GAAP2.
In 2Q 2004 net income totaled Ch$40,067 million (Ch$0.21 per share and US$0.35/ADR), decreasing 21.8% when compared to 2Q 2003. This decrease was mainly due to the Ch$6,307 million loss produced by the pre-payment of US$170 million in senior bonds in the quarter. In the quarter the bank pre-paid various senior bonds in order to take advantage of the low interest rate environment and improve the funding mix.
Loans continued to grow in 2Q 2004. As of June 30, 2004 total loans, excluding interbank and past due loans, increased 3.8% since March 31, 2004. The Banks loan market share reached 23.6% as of June 2004, improving 1% since the beginning of the year. The Bank has captured 36.7% of the new loans in the Chilean market in this period. Demand for loans by individuals and SMEs remains strong, pushed by higher economic growth and low interest rates. Residential mortgage lending led growth and increased 7.6% between the end of the 1Q and 2Q of 2004. Consumer loans grew 3.5% and lending to SMEs increased 3.0% in the same period.
The greater commercial activity was also apparent in the Banks funding activities. The average amount of non-interest bearing demand deposits increased 4.0% between March 31 and June 30, 2004, led by a growth of demand deposits in retail segments. Mutual funds under management increased 10.6% compared to the end of 1Q 2004 and 68.2% YoY.
The Banks results in the second quarter also reflected higher expenses resulting from strong commercial activity and investments in various projects being carried out in order to sustain these growth levels. The main projects include:
| Branch openings: Opening of up to 12 mini-branches in Banefe (7 opened in 1H 2004) and opening of up to 8 branches in Bank (1 opened in 1H 2004) to reinforce retail banking. |
| Credit card project: Strengthening of credit card business to increase usage, penetration levels and market share. |
| Cross-selling project: Hiring of new account executives in order to improve the client per account officer ratio, reduce churn and increase cross-selling. |
| Reengineering of mortgage department: Hiring of additional personnel and improving back office functions. |
In 2Q 2004 total operating costs included Ch$2,847 million in administrative expenses directly related to these projects. Excluding these expenses, administrative expenses would have increased 1.7% and total operating costs 2.1% compared to 2Q 2003.

2 The Peso/US dollar exchange rate as of June 30, 2004 was Ch$639.59 per dollar. June 2003 figures are in constant Chilean pesos as of June 30, 2004 and have been adjusted by the price level restatement factor of 1.00619. March 31, 2004 figures are in constant Chilean pesos of June 30, 2004 and have been adjusted by the price level restatement factor of 1.01317.

Net financial income in 2Q 2004 decreased 4.1% compared to 2Q 2003 and increased 15.0% compared to 1Q 2004. The net interest margin reached 4.8% in the current quarter compared to 5.0% in 2Q 2004. This decrease was mainly due to the lower interest rates. This tightened the spread earned over the re-investment of non-interest bearing liabilities and capital. This was partially offset by the improvement in the Banks asset and funding mix. Net interest income increased 15.0% and the net interest margin rose 50 basis points to 4.8% in 2Q 2004 compared to 1Q 2004. This was mainly due to the 1.7% increase in average earning assets between these two periods, the better asset and funding mix and the seasonal rise of the quarterly inflation rate.
Net fee income decreased 2.0% compared to 2Q 2003. The Bank has adopted a promotional policy regarding checking account maintenance fees as an incentive to improve client relationships, product usage and cross-selling ratios. As a result, the Banks cross-selling ratio among individuals (excluding Banefe) has risen from 3.14 products per client as of December 2003 to 3.21 in June 2004. The usage of products has also increased. The average balance of retail account increased 24.8% since the beginning of the year. Higher balances per account positively affected margins, but also signified lower fees from minimum balance charges. Mutual fund fees increased 51.4% compared to 2Q 2003. Insurance brokerage fees rose 37.0% in 2Q 2004 compared to 2Q 2003.
Total provisions for loan losses, net of loan loss recoveries, increased 4.1% compared to 2Q 2003. Asset quality improved in the quarter. Past due loans at June 30, 2004 decreased 4.8% compared to March 31, 2004 and 21.5% compared to June 31, 2003. As a result of this decrease in past due loans, the coverage ratio (reserves / past due loans) improved to 110.7% compared to 104.8% as of March 31, 2004 and 94.5% as of June 30, 2003.

Loans in retail banking increased 5.4% since March 31, 2004. This was led by a 6.8% growth in lending to individuals. The low interest rate environment and higher economic growth has pushed the demand for consumer credit and residential mortgage loans. Residential mortgage lending led growth and increased 7.6% between the end of the 1Q and 2Q of 2004. In the quarter the Bank launched an attractive mortgage loan with a mixed variable-fixed rate pricing structure that was well received by the market. The Bank is in the process of reinforcing its mortgage lending unit in order to gain market share and with this product improve cross-selling ratios. High yielding consumer lending also continued to expand at a rapid pace, increasing 3.5% between June 30 and March 31, 2004 and 18.2% in 12 months.
Lending to SMEs increased 3.0% between March 31, and June 30, 2004. High yielding leasing operations led growth, rising 14.2% in this segment (3.4% for the Bank as a whole). The higher growth rate of the economy and lower rates has led to a larger demand for capital goods financed with leasing. The Bank is also placing a larger emphasis on expanding its presence among SMEs due to the low penetration and attractive profitability levels of this segment.

Commercial loans increased 0.9% in the same period in this segment, reflecting a recovery in lending to this segment, but at the same time the lower growth of internal investment in Chile compared to foreign trade activities and consumer financing.

The balance of total customer funds decreased 3.6% between 1Q and 2Q 2004. Time deposits decreased 8.0% and the balance of non-interest bearing demand deposits decreased 3.9% in this period. The Bank is preparing its balance sheet for an expected rise in short-term rates in order to minimize the initial negative impact this may have on margins. As a result the Bank sold financial investments in the quarter to lower the duration of its financial investments and simultaneously reduced more expensive time deposits from the balance sheet.
The funding mix continued to improve in 2Q 2004. The average balance of demand deposits has continued to steadily increase compared to a decrease in average interest bearing deposits. The average amount of non-interest bearing demand deposits increased 4.0% between March 31 and June 30, 2004 compared to a 1.2% decline in average interest bearing deposits in the same period. This rise in average balances, despite the higher inflation rate, reflects the Banks commercial focus on strengthening client relationships.

Net financial income in 2Q 2004 decreased 4.1% compared to 2Q 2003 and average earning assets decreased 0.7%. The net interest margin decreased from 5.0% in 2Q 2004 to 4.8% in 2Q 2004. In the quarter various factors affected the net interest margin:
Negative factors:
| Lower interest rates. In 2Q 2003 the average overnight short term rate reached 2.74% compared to 1.75% in 2Q 2004. This tightened the spread earned over the re-investment of non-interest bearing liabilities and capital. |
| Lower UF gap. Despite similar levels of inflation in both quarters the gap between Unidad de Fomento (UF, inflation indexed pesos) denominated assets funded through nominal pesos was much lower in the current quarter compared to 2Q 2003. The Bank is in the process of preparing its balance sheet for a higher short-term interest rate environment by improving the funding mix and reducing the duration of it assets. Therefore, in 2Q 2004 the Bank reduced its financial investment portfolio by 17.8% compared to the end of 1Q 2004 and 13.5% YoY. This reduction reduced our UF- Nominal peso gap as most long-term investments are denominated in UFs. |
3 For analysis purposes results from foreign exchange transactions, which consist mainly of the results of forward contracts that hedge foreign currency positions, has been included in the calculation of the net financial income and net financial margin. Under SBIF guidelines these gains/losses are not be considered interest revenue, but are included as gains/losses from foreign exchange transactions and, accordingly, registered in a different line of the income statement. This distorts net interest income and foreign exchange transaction gains especially in periods of high volatility of the exchange rate. The results of these hedging positions have been added to net financial income to give a clearer indication of the Banks actual net interest margin.
10
Positive factors:
| Asset mix. The improvement in the funding mix continued to gain momentum in 2Q 2004. The Bank has been steadily improving its asset mix, which has helped to stabilize the net interest margin. The loan portfolio increased 6.9% in 12 months while consumer loans increased 18.2% and leasing operations expanded by 8.8% in the same period. |
| Funding mix. The improvement of the Banks funding mix has supported margins in the low interest rate environment. The ratio of average non-interest bearing demand deposits and equity to average interest earning assets improved to 23.4% in 2Q 2004 compared to 20.2% in 2Q 2003. |
Net interest income in 2Q 2004 increased 15.0% compared to 1Q 2004. This was mainly due to the 1.7% increase in average earning assets between these two periods, better asset and funding mix and by the seasonal rise of the quarterly inflation rate.

Asset quality improved in the quarter. Past due loans at June 30, 2004 decreased 4.8% compared to March 31, 2004 and 21.5% compared to June 30, 2003. As a result of this decrease in past due loans the coverage ratio (reserves / past due loans) improved to 110.7% compared to 104.8% as of March 31, 2004 and 94.5% as of June 30, 2003. The required reserve over loan ratio as defined by the SBIF, which measures the expected loss
11
of the loan portfolio, reached 1.88% compared to 1.96% in 1Q 2004 and 2.22% in 2Q 2003. This also compared favorably to the indicator for the Chilean banking system that reached 2.19% as of April 2004, the latest figure available.
Total provisions for loan losses, net of loan loss recoveries, increased 4.1% compared to 2Q 2003. This rise was due to the increase in total loans, especially consumer loans, which grew 18.2% YoY. These loans obtain a higher spread, but also have a higher charge-off level. The increase in charge-offs was also a result of the implementation of the new provisioning guidelines established by the Bank and the SBIF at the beginning of this year. One of the more important changes was the reclassification of all lines of credit as either consumer or commercial loans depending on their origin. Therefore, the provisioning standard for consumer loans was applied to lines of credit previously classified as other loans. The increase in charge-offs was offset by the 33.3% increase in loan loss recoveries, led by a rise in recoveries in consumer lending. The rise in loan loss recoveries also reflects, in part, the Banks reorganization of its collections department. As a result the net charge-off ratio improved from 1.01% of total loans in 2Q 2003 to 0.99% in 2Q 2004.

The Banks net fee income decreased 2.0% compared to 2Q 2003. The Bank has adopted a promotional policy regarding checking account maintenance fees as an incentive to improve client relationships, product usage and cross-selling ratios. Checking accounts are considered the cornerstone of a profitable banking relationship. Customers with a checking account have six times more products than clients without one. In 2Q 2004 checking & overdraft maintenance fees decreased 5.5% compared to 2Q 2003.
As a result of these efforts the Banks cross-selling ratios and product usage have begun to improve. The Banks cross-selling ratio for retail clients (excluding Banefe) has risen from 3.14 products per client as of December 2003 to 3.21 in June 2004. Clients with a checking account are using on average 7.58 products compared to 7.39 in the same period. Total products used by clients has risen from 3.8 to 4.0 million in the first half of 2004.
At the same time the usage of checking account has also risen in the year. The average balance per retail accounts has increased 24.8% since December 2003. Higher balances per account positively affect margins, but also signify lower fees from minimum balance charges.
12
The sale of mutual funds and insurance products also continued to grow. Mutual fund fees increased 51.4% compared to 2Q 2003. This rise is directly related to the 68.2% increase in funds managed in the last 12 months. The Bank increased the dedicated sales force of the mutual fund subsidiary, proactively redirected time deposits to mutual funds and launched a new and successful guaranteed fund in the quarter. Insurance brokerage fees rose 37.0% in 2Q 2004 compared to 2Q 2003. The launching of new products and innovative marketing campaigns has positively impacted the sale of various insurance products. More than 80% of our clients do not have a mutual fund or insurance product.

Operating expenses increased 6.6% in 2Q 2004 compared to 2Q 2003. This rise was mainly due to the investments in various growth oriented projects being carried out in order to improve operating income growth in retail banking. The main projects include:
| Branch openings: Opening of up to 12 mini-branches in Banefe (7 opened in 1H 2004) and opening of up to 8 branches in Bank (1 opened in 1H 2004) to reinforce retail banking. |
| Credit card project: Strengthening of credit card business to increase usage, penetration levels and market share. |
| Cross-selling project: Hiring of new account executives in order to improve the client per account officers ratio, reduce churn and increase cross-selling. |
| Reengineering of mortgage department: Hiring of additional personnel and improving back office functions. |
In 2Q 2004 total operating costs included Ch$2,847 million in administrative expenses directly related to these projects. Excluding these expenses, administrative expenses would have increased 1.7% and total operating costs 2.1% compared to 2Q 2003.
The 5.7% rise in personnel expenses compared to 1Q 2004 was mainly due to seasonal factors.

Other income, net totaled a gain of Ch$277 million in 2Q 2004 compared to a loss of Ch$2,638 million in 2Q 2003. This higher result was mainly due to lower non-credit related provisions recognized in the current quarter compared to 2Q 2003. This was partially offset by a higher loss from the charge-off of repossessed assets. The better result in non-operating income, net compared to 1Q 2004 was mainly due to exceptionally high level of non-credit related provisions recognized in the previous quarter.
The loss from price level restatement totaled Ch$7,644 million in 2Q 2004 compared to a loss of Ch$5,310 million in 2Q 2003. In 2Q 2004 the inflation rate measured by the
14
variation of the UF was 1.15% compared to 1.05% in the same quarter of 2003. The Bank must adjust its capital, fixed assets and other assets for the variations in price levels. Since the Banks capital is larger than the sum of fixed and other assets, the higher the inflation rate, the larger the loss from price level restatement.
