Pursuant to Article 449 of the Commercial Act, we seek shareholders approval during the Annual General Meeting of Shareholders on the Companys separate statement of financial position, separate statement of income and separate statement of appropriation of retained earnings for fiscal year 2011.
Since FY 2011, the Company has adopted the International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS), and the accompanying financial statements herein have been prepared in accordance with the newly adopted IFRS. Note that under IFRS, in preparing its separate financial statements, the Company applies cost accounting in lieu of the equity method of accounting in treating its investments in subsidiaries. Under the cost accounting, profit or loss for the Companys share of each subsidiary is not recognized in the separate statement of income, as was the case for the equity method of accounting based on the previous accounting standard, and dividend income from its subsidiaries are recognized in profit or loss when the Company is entitled to receive the dividend.
Due to this change in accounting, net income stated in the Companys separate statement of income, KRW 1,672.9 billion, is different from the consolidated net income attributable to equity shareholders, KRW 3,100.0 billion.
Business Results for FY 2011 (stand-alone or separate basis)
Shinhan Financial Group is a financial holding company established in accordance with the Financial Holding Company Acts and engages in the primary business of 1) controlling or managing companies that either provide financial services or are closely related to financial business through ownership of shares, 2) investing in or providing financial support to subsidiaries and to raise capital necessary for financial support, and 3) supporting the business of subsidiaries for joint development, marketing of new products and joint utilization of facilities and IT systems and etc.
As of December 31, 2011, Shinhan Financial Group consists of 12 direct subsidiaries that include Shinahn Bank, Shinhan Card, Shinhan Investment Corp., Shinhan Life Insurance and Shinhan BNP Paribas Asset Management, and 19 indirect subsidiaries.
During the fiscal year of 2011, Shinhan Financial Group received annual dividend for FY 2010 and interim dividend for FY 2011 from its subsidiaries that amounts KRW 1,837.5 billion in total. In addition, as the owner of Shinhan brand trademark, Shinhan Financial Group received brand fees from users of our brand and recognized brand fee income of total KRW 121.2 billion in 2011.
- Please refer to Appendix A for the separate financial statements of Shinhan Financial Group.
Under the current Commercial Act, the Company is not required to seek shareholders approval for its consolidated financial statements; however, the consolidated based financials are deemed to better reflect the operation of a holding company, such as the Company. Therefore, a review of the Companys business results on a consolidated basis has been provided for your reference.
Business Results of FY 2011 (consolidated basis)
For the fiscal year 2011, Shinhan Financial Group recorded KRW 3,100 billion of consolidated net income attributable to equity shareholders, supported by a modest growth of loan assets, preservation of stable margin and a significant decrease in credit cost.
In particular, the profitability of banking subsidiaries have rebounded significantly, increasing the net income contribution from bank subsidiaries- which had bottomed to 40% in 2009- to a level over 62% in 2011. Also, the groups net interest margin (NIM) measured by adding those of Shinhan Bank and Shinhan Card remained stable at a mid 3% level. Accordingly, for 4 consecutive years, Shinhan Financial Group posted the largest net income among its peers in Korea
Shinhan Bank reported net income of KRW 2,118.4 billion, up by 26.8% from the previous year while Jeju Bank achieved net income of KRW 15.4 billion, up by 28.6% from 2010.
Non-bank subsidiaries realized a combined net income of KRW 1,281.1 billion, down by 10% year-over-year from 2010. However, this decrease is mostly attributable to the base effect from the prior year 2010, during which a significant tax refund one-off gain in total of KRW 195.6 billion for Shinhan Card was realized.
Both Shinhan Card and Shinhan Investment Corp. net profits fell by 11.6% and 32.5% year-over-year respectively from 2010, whereas Shinhan Life Insurance and Shinhan Capital achieved a sharp net income increased by 11.0% and 27.4% year-over-year respectively from 2010.
Shinhan Card and Shinhan Investment Corp. recorded net income of KRW 875.9 billion and KRW 236.9 billion each, maintaining their stable earnings stream.
The net income contribution from non-bank subsidiaries in 2011 dropped down to 38% from 46% in 2011, mainly due to the recovery of the banking operation while non-banking subsidiaries continue to report stable earnings.
The dividend proposed by the Board of Directors for fiscal year 2011 is as follows;
1) | Dividend for Common Stocks: KRW 355,650 million |
(KRW 750 per share, 15% of par value and 1.83% of market price of Common Stock)
2) | Dividend for Preferred Stocks: KRW 273,858 million |
