Revenues totalled 22,235 million euros, up by 0.3% compared to the first half 2016. They included the exceptional impact of -207 million euros in Own Credit Adjustment (OCA) and own credit risk included in derivatives (DVA) (compared to +161 million euros in the first half 2016) as well as a total of +233 million euros in capital gains from the sale of Shinhan and Euronext shares. They included in the first half 2016 a +597 million euros capital gain from the sale of Visa Europe shares. The revenues of the operating divisions grew by 4.7%. They were down slightly by 0.3% at Domestic Markets1 due to the low interest rate environment, partly offset by good business development, rose by 4.5% at International Financial Services which benefitted from a good business drive and were up sharply by 11.8% at CIB whose market environment was challenging at the beginning of 2016. At 15,190 million euros, operating expenses were up by 3.2% compared to the first half 2016. They included the exceptional 36 million euro impact of the acquisitions’ restructuring costs2 (74 million euros in the first half 2016) as well as 243 million euros in transformation costs of businesses (80 million euros in the first half 2016), which amount was still limited this semester due to the gradual launch of the 2020 transformation plan programs. Operating expenses included 1,067 million euros in banking taxes and contributions (989 million euros in the first half 2016), mainly booked in the first quarter for the entire year pursuant to IFRIC 21 “Taxes”. The operating expenses of the operating divisions rose by 2.4% compared to the first half 2016: +1.9% for Domestic Markets1, +2.7% for International Financial Services and +2.8% for CIB. They included the impact of the application of IFRIC 21 recalled above. The gross operating income of the Group was thus down by 5.4%, to 7,045 million euros. It was up by 9.5% for the operating divisions. The cost of risk was at a low level, at 1,254 million euros (1,548 million euros in the first half 2016) or 34 basis points of outstanding customer loans. This 19.0% decline reflects in particular the good control of risk at loan origination, the low interest rate environment and the continued improvement in Italy as a result in particular to the repositioning on the better corporate clients. The Group’s operating income was down by 1.9%, at 5,791 million euros (5,901 million euros in the first half 2016). It was up by 20.3% for the operating divisions. Non operating items totalled 424 million euros (262 million euros in the first half 2016 which included share depreciations). Pre-tax income thus came to 6,215 million euros compared to 6,163 million euros in the first half 2016 (+0.8%). It was up sharply by 20.9% for the operating divisions. Net income attributable to equity holders was 4,290 million euros, down by 1.9% compared to the first half 2016. Excluding the effect of one-off items3, it came to 4,384 million euros, up sharply by 15.5%, reflecting the Group’s very good operating performance in the first half of the year. 1 Including 100% of Private Banking in the domestic networks (excluding PEL/CEL effects) 2 In particular, LaSer, Bank BGZ, DAB Bank and GE LLD 3 Effect of exceptional items after tax: -94 million euros (+578 million euros in the first half of 2016) 4 BNP PARIBAS – SECOND UPDATE TO THE 2016 REGISTRATION DOCUMENT The annualised return on equity was 10.6%.

The net book value per share reached 73.3 euros, equivalent to a compounded annual growth rate of 5.7% since 31 December 2008, illustrating the continuous value creation throughout the cycle. The €2.70 dividend per share was paid entirely in cash on 1st June 2017. The Group is actively implementing the 2020 transformation plan, an ambitious programme of new customer experience, digital transformation and operating efficiency. It also continues to reinforce its internal control and compliance systems.
