NON-CORE GROSS LOANS FURTHER DOWN BY €1.3 BN IN 3Q14 (-1.6% Q/Q AND -9.4% 9M/9M)

Positive quarterly performance in all divisions with 3Q14 Group net profit of €722 m leading to a 9M14 net
profit of €1.8 bn (+81.3% 9M/9M) with an annualised RoTE1 of 6.0%, fully on track versus target.
CET1 ratio fully loaded2 at 10.4% and CET1 ratio transitional at 10.8%. Total capital ratio transitional at
14.9% and leverage ratio increase to over 4.7% on a fully loaded basis and to 5.2% on a transitional basis.

The Comprehensive Assessment confirmed the solidity of UniCredit’s balance sheet validating the quality
of the risk control system. UniCredit is among the winners with an AQR impact significantly lower than the
SSM pool3 and a CET1 ratio transitional 2016 in the Adverse Scenario equal to 7.9% post capital
strengthening measures carried out in 3Q14, corresponding to a capital buffer in excess of €10 bn.

Group asset quality holding up well with gross impaired loans broadly stable in the quarter. The yearly
growth rate of the stock of gross impaired loans is steadily declining since 1Q13. LLP lowered in the quarter
by some one-off items accounting for c. €500 m but the coverage ratio on impaired loans remains high at
51.0%, in line with best European peers.

The Core Bank posts a net profit of €1.1 bn also in 3Q14, reaching €3.1 bn as of 9M144 (+13.0% 9M/9M)
with revenues affected by 3Q seasonality but strongly up on a yearly basis, declining costs and lower LLP.
All divisions positively contributed to the Core Bank’s result. Commercial Bank Italy confirms its role as
largest contributor followed by CEE & Poland and CIB.

New medium-long term lending volumes in Italy remain strong with €2.8 bn granted in 3Q14 despite
seasonality for a total of €8.7 bn in 9M14 (+51.9% 9M/9M) mainly driven by household mortgages
(+139.4% 9M/9M) and corporate loans (+65.3% 9M/9M).

Non-Core portfolio run-down on track, with gross loans at €79.7 bn (-€1.3 bn Q/Q and -€8.2 bn Y/Y).

1 RoTE = Net profit/ Average tangible equity. Tangible equity net of €1.9 bn Additional Tier 1 and annualized net profit.

2019, hence anticipating all the effects that will gradually be factored in. Regulatory capital ratios pro-forma for
3 Q14 earnings net of dividend. CET1 ratios pro-forma for DAB disposal.
3SSM pool comprises 130 banks involved in the Comprehensive Assessment.
4Core Bank’s net profit does not include the revised tax charge on the valuation of the stake in Banca d’Italia booked in 2Q14 (€215 m).

The Board of Directors of UniCredit approved 9M14 results on November 11th. Federico Ghizzoni, CEO of
UniCredit commented: "Third quarter and the nine months’ Group results bring us very close to our target
of €2 billion net profit for 2014 which is now very close. We are pleased with this positive trend, despite a
still difficult macroeconomic context. This result comes mostly from managerial actions embedded in our
Strategic Plan 2013-18 focused on innovation and growth. We are one of the most solid European
commercial banks: the Comprehensive Assessment confirmed our resilience to adverse scenarios and our
capital strength. Starting from November 4th, the ECB is in charge of the Supervision of the major European
banks. This represents a positive change for UniCredit: our international footprint will be more and more a
competitive advantage".

UNICREDIT GROUP - 3Q14 HIGHLIGHTS

Net profit at €722 m, leading to a 9M14 net profit of €1.8 bn (+81.3% 9M/9M) and to an annualised RoTE1
of 6.0%.
Total assets increase to €858 bn (+€19.3 bn or +2.3% Q/Q) mainly driven by loans to banks (+€11.0 bn or
+15.2% Q/Q, partially counterbalanced by the increase in deposits from banks) and by financial assets held
for trading (+€8.9 bn or +10.6% Q/Q) which are up due to the swing in interest rates and are compensated
by a symmetrical change in the financial liabilities held for trading. RWA/ Total assets remain stable at 47%.

Tangible equity increases to €45.9 bn (+€2.4 bn or +5.4% Q/Q) thanks to the issuance of €1.0 bn Additional
Tier 1, €0.6 bn from the IPO of Fineco and to 3Q14 net profit.

Funding gap further shrinking to €23.3 bn (improving by €3.4 bn Q/Q, pro-forma for DAB reclassification
under IFRS 5).

Asset quality dynamics confirm the resilience of the loan book, with gross impaired loans broadly stable at
€83.5 bn (+1.3% Q/Q, flat Y/Y) and a high coverage ratio of 51.0%. NPL slightly up to €50.6 bn (+2.1% Q/Q)
with coverage ratio increasing to 61.8% (+71bps Q/Q). Other impaired loans remain stable at €32.9 bn
(+0.1% Q/Q) with coverage ratio decreasing to 34.3% (-201bps Q/Q) mainly as the effect of the
recalibration of doubtful loan coverage in Italy which decreases from 39.1% to 36.2%, still significantly
above the average of largest Italian banks of 20.7%7.

CET1 ratio fully loaded2 at 10.35%, pro-forma for the sale of DAB (+8bps), with the contribution from
Fineco’s IPO (+16bps) and retained earnings8 (+14bps) partially compensated by the change in RWA (-6bps)
and in reserves and other items (-9bps). CET1 ratio transitional pro-forma stands at 10.81%. Tier 1 ratio
and total capital ratio transitional pro-forma stand at 11.64% and 14.90% respectively.
Leverage ratio Basel 3 further up to above 4.7% on fully loaded basis and to 5.2% transitional, among the
best in Europe, confirming the high solidity of UniCredit’s balance sheet.

TLTRO take-up at first ECB auction amounts to €7.8 bn9 corresponding to the full allotment for Italy.
Redeployment plan on track with c. €3 bn loans granted to corporates and SME since October. Further
take-up at December auction is currently being evaluated.

Funding plan 2014 has been downsized in light of capital market conditions and the liquidity effects
connected with the new ECB facilities. To date, UniCredit has repaid €17.1 bn of LTRO and the remainder
€9 bn will be gradually reimbursed.

Comprehensive Assessment proved the resilience of UniCredit’s balance sheet. The AQR impact on CET1
ratio transitional is significantly lower than the SSM pool3 (-19bps vs. -40bps) and the CET1 ratio
transitional pro-forma 2016 in the Adverse Scenario, including capital strengthening carried out in 9M14,
lands at 7.9%, corresponding to capital buffer in excess of €10 bn.

9M/9M) with quarterly dynamics mainly affected by the cut in market rates, partially mitigated by the repricing
of liabilities.

counterparts declining (-3.7% Q/Q) and commercial loans holding up well (-0.4% Q/Q) despite seasonality.

number of FTE of 318 in 3Q14 (-465 since 3Q13), and Commercial Bank Austria with total costs of €351 m (-
3.9% Q/Q, +1.4% Y/Y) thanks to the reduction in staff costs.

Loan loss provisions (LLP) decrease to €244 m (-59.5% Q/Q, -58.2% Y/Y) embedding a net positive
contribution of c. €200 m from one-off effects, including among others a big ticket recovery in Germany

Risk and charges amount to €146 m. As of 9M14, risk and charges amount to €287 m, including €107 m

stands at €46 m.

Income taxes amount to €545 m in the quarter corresponding to an effective tax rate of c. 29.3%.

NON-CORE - 3Q14 RESULTS

Gross customer loans shrink to €79.7 bn (-€1.3 bn or -1.6% Q/Q) in line with targets, of which c. 29% or
€23.1 bn performing and c. 71% or €56.6 bn impaired loans. On a yearly basis, the stock of gross customer
loans decreases by €8.2 bn (-9.4% Y/Y) thanks to the reduction of exposures, impaired loans disposals and
to the reclassification of some exposure in the Core Bank17.

Gross impaired loans slightly increase by €0.8 bn (+1.5% Q/Q, -0.8% Y/Y) due to a natural migration of an
ageing portfolio and no material disposals in 3Q14. Coverage ratio remains high at 51.9%. Gross NPL
amount to €36.4 bn, slightly up Q/Q with a higher coverage of 62.0%.

Net result strongly improving Y/Y and equal to -€382 m as of 3Q14. Revenues amount to €79 m with
quarterly comparison affected by negative one-offs occurred in 2Q14. Costs decline to €141 m (-3.3% Q/Q,
-2.4% Y/Y). LLP total €509 m (+27.2% Q/Q, -43.2% Y/Y) embedding a net positive contribution of c. €300 m
one-off, comprising the recalibration of the coverage on Italian doubtful loans as well as some negative
items including most of the AQR related additional provisions18.
17As of year-end 2013, certain positions have been reclassified in the Core Bank perimeter, having met the strict criteria set by Credit Risk Management for such reclassification.
18Based on the information received during the interaction with Supervisors as of 11 November 2014. At present, the detailed outcome of the credit file review has not been received.


DIVISIONAL HIGHLIGHTS - 3Q14 RESULTS

Commercial Bank Italy is top performer among divisions for the third quarter in a row with a net profit of
€0.6 bn (+6.7% Q/Q) and over 33% RoAC. Revenue generation remains strong despite typical 3Q
seasonality (-6.0% Q/Q but +4.1% Y/Y) and costs continue to register a significant reduction (-1.6% Q/Q, -
4.1% Y/Y) in line with the Strategic Plan targets.

CEE & Poland post a net profit of €0.4 bn (+6.6% Q/Q) and a 21% RoAC thanks to NII growth (+4.1% Q/Q) in
all CEE markets and the positive contribution of trading income (+34.2% Q/Q) which, together with lower
LLP, more than compensate the negative impact from Hungarian FX law. Loans to customers increase to
€84.8 bn (+0.8% Q/Q, +2.4% Y/Y) and direct funding to €79.8 bn (+3.9% Q/Q, +9.8% Y/Y).
CIB’s continued commercial intensity and sound client flows sustain revenue generation despite a
challenging environment and the seasonality typically experienced in 3Q. This has resulted in a significant
improvement in CIB’s market position, with ranking in all EMEA Loan & Bonds in € league tables up to #2
vs. #4 of the previous year19, mainly thanks to the resilience of the syndicated loan activities where CIB’s
market share increased from 4.2% to 4.5% over the course of the year. With ROAC at 18% and cost income
at 52% in 3Q14, the division is one of the most efficient CIB platforms in the market. RWA stable vs.
previous quarter at €70 bn.
