Bogotá, August 11^th, 2021. Grupo Aval S.A. (NYSE:AVAL) reported a consolidated attributable net income of Ps 949.5 billion (Ps 42.6 pesos per share) for 2Q2021 versus a Ps 323.4 billion (Ps 14.5 pesos per share) figure reported for 2Q2020. ROAE was 18.2% and ROAA was 2.0% for 2Q2021.

Key results of the quarter:

• In general, the second quarter of 2021 evidenced the continued recovery of the global economy and Colombia was not the exception as growth expectations for 2021 now exceed 7%, boosted by better unemployment numbers, renewed commercial activity and higher prices of export commodities such as coffee and oil. Central America does not lag too far behind with economic growth expectations bordering 6%.

• Vaccination has been key to the economic recovery as demonstrated by the difference in economic growth recovery across regions and countries depending on the effectiveness of vaccination programs. In Colombia, more than 30 million doses have been already administered. At the current pace, the country could achieve herd immunity as early as during 3Q2021.

• Grupo Aval registered its best results ever for a quarter with attributable net income of approximately 950 billion pesos, an increase of almost 20% versus the first quarter of 2021 and almost tripled the attributable net income generated during the same quarter of 2020. Aval’s attributable net income for the first half of 2021 was 1.74 trillion pesos showing an increase of 70.1% versus the same period during 2020.

• ROAE for the quarter was 18.2% from 15.4% in the first quarter of 2021 and 6.6% in the same quarter of 2020. Cumulative ROAE for the first half was 16.7% vs 10.4% during the first semester of 2020.

• ROAA for the quarter was 2.0% versus 1.8% in the first quarter of 2021 and 0.8% in the second quarter of last year. Cumulative ROAA was 1.9% in the first semester of 2021.

• Total loans grew approximately 6% during the first semester and total assets and total deposits grew 6.6% in the same period.

• Active digital clients, as of June 2021, totaled 5.2 million increasing approximately 31% in the last twelve months.

• Attributable equity grew approximately 8% in the last twelve months.

• Aval’s banks regulatory capital Tier 1 ratios, now reported under Basel 3, grew between 130 and 310 basis points in the last twelve months.

• 90-day PDL ratios decreased 14 basis points versus the end of 2020 and remained steady versus the first quarter of 2021 at 3.4%.

• Cost of Risk of 2.1% for the semester decreased by 60 basis points versus the first semester of 2020 and by 110 basis points versus the second semester of 2020.

• Net Interest Margin was 4.8% in the semester versus 5.1% in the first semester of 2020 and 5.2% in the second semester. NIM on loans was 5.8% during the first semester of 2021 versus 6.0% in the first semester of 2020 and 5.9% in the second semester of 2020.

• Net income from commissions and fees during the second quarter of 2021 increased by 19.2% versus the second quarter of 2020 and decreased by 3% versus the first quarter of this year, mainly explained by the impact of the violent demonstrations experienced during the second quarter of this year. During the semester, this number increased by 8.7% versus the first semester of 2020.

• Income derived from Non-financial Sector investments increased by 22% during the quarter and by 60% when comparing the first semester of 2021 versus the same semester of 2020.

• Efficiency on a cost to income basis was 45.4% for the quarter versus 44.7% in the first quarter of this year and on a cost to assets basis was 3.2% in the quarter versus 3.1% in the first quarter.
