APRA’s capital requirements are more conservative than those of the Basel Committee on Banking Supervision (BCBS), leading to lower reported capital ratios by Australian banks. The following details the adjustments and how Westpac’s APRA CET1 capital ratio aligns to an internationally comparable ratio: 80 INTERNATIONALLY COMPARABLE CAPITAL RATIO RECONCILIATION1 CAPITAL, FUNDING AND LIQUIDITY 1 Internationally comparable methodology references the ABA study on the comparability of APRA’s new capital framework and finalised reform released on 10 March 2023. 2 Internal ratings-based approach (IRB). Westpac’s CET1 capital ratio (APRA basis) 12.4 Equity investments Balances below prescribed threshold are risk weighted, compared to a 100% CET1 deduction under APRA’s requirements ~0.0 Deferred tax assets Balances below prescribed threshold are risk weighted, compared to a 100% CET1 deduction under APRA’s requirements 0.6 Capitalised expenses APRA requires these items to be deducted from CET1. The BCBS only requires exposures classified as intangible assets under relevant accounting standards to be deducted from CET1 0.7 Interest rate risk in the banking book (IRRBB) APRA requires capital to be held for IRRBB. The BCBS does not have a Pillar 1 capital requirement for IRRBB 1.6 RWA scaling factor APRA applies a scaling factor to all Advanced IRB2 credit RWAs. The BCBS does not apply this scalar 0.9 Property finance APRA applies an additional scaling factor to property finance RWA. The BCBS does not apply this scalar. 0.3 Residential mortgages APRA applies scaling factors to mortgage RWAs for higher risk segments such as interest only and investor mortgages and applies a standardised risk weight to certain mortgages. The BCBS does not apply this treatment. 1.9 Non-retail Loss Given Default (LGD) Non-retail LGD’s under the Foundation IRB (F-IRB) and Advanced IRB approaches differ from the BCBS (0.2) New Zealand APRA requires New Zealand RWAs to be largely calculated in accordance with the RBNZ rules.

Based on company reports/presentations. Ratios are at 30 June 2023, except for Bank of Montreal, Toronto Dominion Bank, Royal Bank of Canada, CIBC and Scotiabank which are at 31 July 2023, and Westpac which is at 30 September 2023. Where accrued expected dividends have been deducted and disclosed, these have been added back for comparability. US banks are excluded from leverage ratio analysis due to business model differences, for example from loans sold to US Government sponsored enterprises. NAB has not disclosed an internationally comparable leverage ratio since September 2017 and has therefore been excluded.

This is a cumulative target which comprises (a) $5b for lending to climate change solutions, $700m for lending for healthy, affordable and social housing, and other sustainable lending, and (b) facilitation of sustainable bonds by Westpac Banking Corporation - New Zealand Branch from 1 October 2020 to 30 September 2025. The sustainable finance target includes finance for social and non-climate sustainability initiatives which may not reduce climate change risk. All sustainable finance reported is informed by global sustainable finance market standards, principles and guidance that are commonly used to label or categorise loans and bonds as sustainable. In mid-2023, the Westpac Warm up loan was renamed the Westpac Greater Choices home loan and extended to include lending that is aligned specifically to climate change solutions (e.g. EV loans), not solely healthy homes. Therefore, our cumulative reporting for 2023 does not include new lending since 2022. From 2024, Westpac intends to include Greater Choices home loan lending as part of the overall sustainable lending target. 8.

We will continue to identify opportunities to lift local sourcing to 100%, to include for our Fiji and PNG businesses, as required to achieve 100% under the RE100/CDP Standard. 4. Certification is obtained for Westpac’s Australian and New Zealand operations (excludes financed emissions) under the Australian Government’s Climate Active Carbon Neutral Standard for Organisations and the New Zealand Toitū net carbonzero certification respectively. Further information can be found on the Sustainability Performance Reports page on our website. 5.

Climate change solutions activities are defined in the Glossary section in our 2023 Sustainability Index and Datasheet. New lending represents the total of new and increases in lending commitments, excluding refinances 7. Australian Banking Association, Australian Sustainable Finance Institute, and Australian Industry Energy Transitions Initiative Our FY23 carbon footprint 1. Sectors in our financed emissions analysis are based on ANZSIC codes. These sector definitions differ from those used for our 2030 emission reduction targets and Group Exposure by Sector – includes breakdown of sectors that may be exposed to higher climate change risk reporting. Summary of our 2030 emission reduction targets 1. Includes exploration, extraction and drilling companies, all activities integrated oil and gas companies (IOCs), tolling and stand-alone refineries and LNG producers. Does not include downstream retail and distribution, pipeline infrastructure, storage and transport, nor trading entities. 2. Updated existing targets for NZBA sectors (thermal coal mining, upstream oil and gas, and commercial real estate (offices)). Refer to our 2023 Climate Report for more information. 3. Covers the production and sale of thermal coal, with adjacent sectors (including mining service providers) to be covered in other targets as appropriate. Transactional banking and rehabilitation bonds are excluded. 4. Annually, we calculate the percentage of revenue coming directly from thermal coal mining by assessing customers’ full-year audited financial reports, based on a rolling average of the prior three years of revenues. 5. Refers to scope 1 and 2 emissions of power generators, i.e. customers with >10% revenue coming from power generation or >5% revenues from thermal coal electricity generation. In Australia, this applies to customers under ANZSIC (1993) code 3610 with National Greenhouse and Energy Reporting Scheme designated generation facilities and have >10% revenue coming from power generation APPENDIX 7: SUSTAINABILITY – FOOTNOTES APPENDIX The information on this page contains ‘forward-looking statements’ and statements of expectation reflecting Westpac’s current views on future events.

Summary of our 2030 emission reduction targets 6. This target covers customers that produce clinker in-house. The target has been set for customers’ scope 1 and 2 emissions in relation to the production of cement. It covers emissions generated from calcination in clinker production as well as fuel combustion and electricity consumption associated with the cement production process 7. Base building operational scope 1 and 2 emissions. Target excludes all scope 3 emissions (e.g. tenant emissions from electricity and appliance use, construction, embodied emissions and corporate activities) 8. Our target applies to facilities that are assigned office related ANZSIC codes, and with a TCE greater than or equal to $5 million A$ for Australian facilities or $5 million NZ$ for New Zealand facilities. This excludes exposures associated with site finance, construction and renovation of commercial real estate assets 9. Floor space is defined as net-lettable area (NLA). In Australia, the standard used for determining the NLA is set out in the Property Council of Australia (PCA) March 1997 Method of Measurement. In New Zealand, this is Rentable Area as set out in The Guide for the Measurement of Rentable Areas NZ 10. Steel represents a very small percentage of Westpac’s lending portfolio and a small number of customers. To protect our customers confidentiality, we have adopted a ‘traffic light’ system to disclose our performance against the target. Unlike other targets, we will not be disclosing our baseline or progress 11. Covers customers that operate scheduled air transport for passengers, including freight operations undertaken by passenger airline operators 12. The aviation sector was highly impacted by the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic resulting in emissions intensities higher than the IEA NZE 2050 pathway (less people flying). Increased activity (more people flying) will improve efficiency and result in some reduction in emissions intensity 13. Passenger kilometres (pkm) is a measure of activity for passenger airline operators 14. Applies to institutional and commercial relationship-managed agribusiness customers with total committed exposures (TCE) ≥ $1.5 million who are captured by dairy, beef, sheep and mixed farming ANZSICs 15. Applies to relationship-managed agribusiness customers with TCE equal to or greater than $NZ1.0 million who are captured by dairy and sheep and beef farming ANZSICs 16. Land management emissions refers to operational emissions resulting from how land is managed rather than emissions resulting from land-use change or on-farm carbon removals. Land management emissions arise from processes such as enteric fermentation, fertiliser use and manure management 17. Fat Protein Corrected Milk is a commonly used measure of dairy farm outputs. FPCM is milk corrected for its fat and protein content to a regional standard. In SBTi FLAG (reference scenario we used for setting Agriculture targets), dairy production is expressed in tonnes of fat and protein corrected milk 18. In SBTi FLAG animal commodities production is expressed in tonnes of fresh weight of carcass where carcass is defined as animal meat, fresh, chilled or frozen, with bone in 19. Excludes mortgages on vacant land as well as construction and renovation loans given there are no in-use operational emissions associated with these 20. Scope 1 and 2 emissions refer to in-use operational emissions from energy associated with the operation of the building, consisting of purchased electricity and natural gas consumption Assessing climate-related risks on our financial position 1. Represents the sum of the committed portion of direct lending (including funds placement overall and deposits placed), contingent and pre-settlement risk plus the committed portion of secondary market trading and underwriting risk 2. Every six months we update the physical risk analysis of our Australian residential mortgage portfolio. The analysis estimates the portion of our mortgages exposed to higher physical risks under climate scenarios developed by the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC). The analysis uses a generalised model of how extreme natural disasters and climate change may impact individual properties. Australian locations that may experience higher physical risk by 2050 is defined in the Glossary section in our 2023 Sustainability Index and Datasheet 3. Other mining includes iron ore, metal ore, construction material, exploration and services. Exposure values reflect TCE for the mining sector across Westpac Group at Sep-23. The mining population is defined by relevant ANZSIC codes 4. Coal - thermal & metallurgical includes thermal and metallurgical coal mining. It excludes metallurgical coal mining in diversified miners Climate-related opportunities 1. These include green, social, sustainability, sustainability-linked and re-linked loans and bonds and have not been assessed under our new Sustainable Finance Framework 2. Based on IJGlobal and Westpac Research Data for the period 1 October 2018 to 30 September 2023 3. Climate change solutions activities are defined in the Glossary section in our 2023 Sustainability Index and Datasheet 4. TCE represents the maximum amount of credit exposure that Westpac has committed to provide to a customer, both on- and off-balance sheet, including those that arise from transactional banking 5. Due to data availability, the market share value has calculated based on Jan-Jun 2022 and Jan-Jun 2023 APPENDIX The information on this page contains ‘forward-looking statements’ and statements of expectation reflecting Westpac’s current views on future events.

APPENDIX 8: DEFINITIONS 130 Credit quality Westpac Group 2023 Full Year Results Presentation & Investor Discussion Pack APPENDIX >90 days past due Includes facilities less than 90 days past due and those credit exposures, that are in default, but where it is expected that the full value of principal and accrued interest can be collected, generally by reference to the value of security held 90+ days past due Includes facilities 90 days or more past due, and those credit exposures that are in default, but where it is expected that the full value of principal and accrued interest can be collected, generally by reference to the value of security held Provision for expected credit losses Expected credit losses (ECL) are a probability-weighted estimate of the cash shortfalls expected to result from defaults over the relevant timeframe. They are determined by evaluating a range of possible outcomes and taking into account the time value of money, past events, current conditions and forecasts of future economic conditions Collectively assessed provisions (CAP) CAP for ECL under AASB 9 represent the ECL which is collectively assessed in pools of similar assets with similar risk characteristics. This incorporates forward looking information and does not require an actual loss event to have occurred for an impairment provision to be recognised Individually assessed provisions (IAP) Provisions raised for losses on loans that are known to be impaired and are assessed on an individual basis. The estimated losses on these impaired loans is based on expected future cash flows discounted to their present value and, as this discount unwinds, interest will be recognised in the income statement Stage 1: 12 months ECL – performing For financial assets where there has been no significant increase in credit risk since origination a provision for 12 months ECL is recognised. Interest revenue is calculated on the gross carrying amount of the financial asset Stage 2: Lifetime ECL – performing For financial assets where there has been a significant increase in credit risk since origination but where the asset is still performing a provision for lifetime ECL is recognised. Interest revenue is calculated on the gross carrying amount of the financial asset Stage 3 Lifetime ECL – non-performing For financial assets that are non-performing a provision for lifetime ECL is recognised. Interest revenue is calculated on the carrying amount net of the provision for ECL rather than the gross carrying amount Impaired Includes exposures that have deteriorated to the point where full collection of interest and principal is in doubt, based on an assessment of the customer’s outlook, cash flow, and the net realisation of value of assets to which recourse is held: – Facilities 90 days or more past due, and full recovery is in doubt: exposures where contractual payments are 90 or more days in arrears and the net realisable value of assets to which recourse is held may not be sufficient to allow full collection of interest and principal, including overdrafts or other revolving facilities that remain continuously outside approved limits by material amounts for 90 or more calendar days; – Non-accrual facilities: exposures with individually assessed impairment provisions held against them, excluding restructured loans; – Restructured facilities: exposures where the original contractual terms have been formally modified to provide for concessions of interest or principal for reasons related to the financial difficulties of the customer; – Other assets acquired through security enforcement (includes other real estate owned): includes the value of any other assets acquired as full or partial settlement of outstanding obligations through the enforcement of security arrangements; and – Any other facility where the full collection of interest and principal is in doubt Stressed exposures Watchlist and substandard, non-performing not impaired, and impaired exposures Total committed exposures (TCE) Represents the sum of the committed portion of direct lending (including funds placement overall and deposits placed), contingent and pre-settlement risk plus the committed portion of secondary market trading and underwriting risk Watchlist and substandard Loan facilities where customers are experiencing operating weakness and financial difficulty but are not expected to incur loss of interest or principal |

Since its formation, ten business divestments have been completed. The remaining operations include Platforms, Westpac Pacific, margin lending and auto finance business which is in run-off. These businesses will be retained and transferred to the management of the Business & Wealth segment from Full Year 2024 Earnings drivers Average interest-earning assets (AIEA) The average balance of assets held by the Group that generate interest income. Where possible, daily balances are used to calculate the average balance Group net interest margin Calculated by dividing net interest income by average interest-earning assets (annualised where applicable) Core net interest margin Calculated by dividing net interest income excluding Notable Items and Treasury & Markets by average interest-earning assets (annualised where applicable) Pre-provision profit Net operating income less operating expenses Full-time equivalent employees (FTE) A calculation based on the number of hours worked by full and part-time employees as part of their normal duties. For example, the full-time equivalent of one FTE is 76 hours paid work per fortnight Capital and liquidity Capital ratios As defined by APRA (unless stated otherwise) Committed liquidity facility (CLF) The RBA makes available to Australian Authorised Deposit-taking Institutions (ADIs) a CLF that, subject to qualifying conditions, can be accessed to meet LCR requirements under APS210 Liquidity. APRA announced in September 2021 that ADIs subject to the LCR should reduce their CLF usage to zero by 1 January 2023 High quality liquid assets (HQLA) Assets which meet APRA’s criteria for inclusion as HQLA in the numerator of the LCR Internationally comparable ratios Internationally comparable regulatory capital ratios are Westpac’s estimated ratios after adjusting the capital ratios determined under APRA Basel III regulations for various items. Analysis aligns with the APRA study titled “International capital comparison study” dated 13 July 2015 Leverage ratio As defined by APRA (unless stated otherwise). Tier 1 capital divided by ‘exposure measure’ and expressed as a percentage. ‘Exposure measure’ is the sum of on-balance sheet exposures, derivative exposures, securities financing transaction exposures and other off-balance sheet exposures Liquidity coverage ratio (LCR) An APRA requirement to maintain an adequate level of unencumbered high quality liquid assets, to meet liquidity needs for a 30 calendar day period under an APRA-defined severe stress scenario. Absent a situation of financial stress, the value of the LCR must not be less than 100%. LCR is calculated as the percentage ratio of stock of HQLA and CLF over the total net cash out-flows in a modelled 30 day defined stressed scenario Net stable funding ratio (NSFR) The NSFR is defined as the ratio of the amount of available stable funding (ASF) to the amount of required stable funding (RSF) defined by APRA. The amount of ASF is the portion of an ADI’s capital and liabilities expected to be a reliable source of funds over a one year time horizon. The amount of RSF is a function of the liquidity characteristics and residual maturities of an ADI’s assets and off-balance sheet activities. ADI’s must maintain an NSFR of at least 100% Risk weighted assets or RWA Assets (both on and off-balance sheet) are risk weighted according to each asset’s inherent potential for default and what the likely losses would be in case of default. In the case of non-asset-backed risks (ie. market and operational risk), RWA is determined by multiplying the capital requirements for those risks by 12.5 |

The material contained in this presentation is intended to be general background information on Westpac Banking Corporation (Westpac) and its activities. The information is supplied in summary form and is therefore not necessarily complete. It is not intended that it be relied upon as advice to investors or potential investors, who should consider seeking independent professional advice depending upon their specific investment objectives, financial situation or particular needs. The material contained in this presentation may include information derived from publicly available sources that have not been independently verified. No representation or warranty is made as to the accuracy, completeness or reliability of the information. This presentation should be read in conjunction with our 2023 Annual Report. This includes references to our systems and processes, which may not always be 100% effective and are subject to risks and other factors, including those described in the section titled ‘Risk factors’ in our 2023 Annual Report. All amounts are in Australian dollars unless otherwise indicated. The financial information in this presentation is presented in accordance Australian Accounting Standards (AAS) and is also compliant with International Financial Reporting Standards. In 2022 and earlier reporting periods, Westpac reported a non-AAS financial measure of profit referred to as “cash earnings” as well as reporting “Notable Items” and a further non-AAS profit measure excluding these Notable Items in both external and internal reporting. In First Half 2023, Westpac ceased reporting cash earnings and cash earnings excluding Notable Items and will use net profit attributable to owners of Westpac (net profit) as Westpac’s key measure of financial performance. To assist in explaining our financial performance, Westpac will continue to report Notable Items which represent certain items that management believe are not reflective of the Group’s ongoing business performance. Refer to page 104 for details of the Notable Items impacting Westpac’s 2023 Annual Report. In assessing Westpac’s performance and that of our operating segments we use a number of financial measures, including amounts, measures and ratios that are presented on a non-AAS basis. Non-AAS financial measures and ratios do not have standardised meanings under AAS. As such they are unlikely to be directly comparable to similar measures presented by other companies and should not be viewed in isolation from, or as a substitute for, the AAS results. Refer to Westpac’s 2023 Annual Report for the twelve months ended 30 September 2023 available at www.westpac.com.au in the section “Results Announcement to the market - Introduction” for details of the presentation changes and non-AAS financial measures. This presentation contains statements that constitute “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of Section 21E of the US Securities Exchange Act of 1934. Forward looking statements are statements that are not historical facts. Forward-looking statements appear in a number of places in this presentation and include statements regarding our intent, belief or current expectations with respect to our business and operations, macro and micro economic and market conditions, results of operations and financial condition, capital adequacy and risk management, including, without limitation, future loan loss provisions and financial support to certain borrowers, forecasted economic indicators and performance metric outcomes, indicative drivers, climate- and other sustainability-related statements, commitments, targets, projections and metrics, and other estimated and proxy data. We use words such as ‘will’, ‘may’, ‘expect’, ‘intend’, ‘seek’, ‘would’, ‘should’, ‘could’, ‘continue’, ‘plan’, ‘estimate’, ‘anticipate’, ‘believe’, ‘probability’, ‘indicative’, ‘risk’, ‘aim’, ‘outlook’, ‘forecast’, ‘f’cast’, ‘f’, ‘assumption’, ‘projection’, ‘target’, ‘goal’, ‘guidance’, ‘ambition’, or other similar words to identify forward-looking statements, or otherwise identify forward-looking statements. These forward-looking statements reflect our current views on future events and are subject to change, certain known and unknown risks, uncertainties and assumptions and other factors which are, in many instances, beyond our control (and the control of our officers, employees, agents and advisors), and have been made based on management’s expectations or beliefs concerning future developments and their potential effect upon Westpac. Forward-looking statements may also be made, verbally or in writing, by members of Westpac’s management or Board in connection with this presentation. Such statements are subject to the same limitations, uncertainties, assumptions and disclaimers set out in this presentation. There can be no assurance that future developments or performance will align with our expectations or that the effect of future developments on us will be those anticipated. Actual results could differ materially from those we expect or which are expressed or implied in forward-looking statements, depending on various factors including, but not limited to, those described in the section titled ‘Risk factors' in our 2023 Annual Report for the twelve months ended 30 September 2023 available at www.westpac.com.au. When relying on forward-looking statements to make decisions with respect to Westpac, investors and others relying on information in this presentation should carefully consider such factors and other uncertainties and events. Except as required by law, we assume no obligation to revise or update any forward-looking statements contained in this presentation, whether from new information, future events, conditions or otherwise, after the date of this presentation. Further important information regarding climate change and sustainability-related statements This presentation contains forward-looking statements and other representations relating to environment, social and governance (ESG) topics, including but not limited to climate change, net-zero, climate resilience, natural capital, emissions intensity, human rights and other sustainability related statements, commitments, targets, projections, scenarios, risk and opportunity assessments, pathways, forecasts, estimated projections and other proxy data. These are subject to known and unknown risks, and there are significant uncertainties, limitations, risks and assumptions in the metrics and modelling on which these statements rely. In particular, the metrics, methodologies and data relating to climate and sustainability are rapidly evolving and maturing, including variations in approaches and common standards in estimating and calculating emissions, and uncertainty around future climate and sustainability related policy and legislation. There are inherent limits in the current scientific understanding of climate change and its impacts. Some material contained in this presentation may include information including, without limitation, methodologies, modelling, scenarios, reports, benchmarks, tools and data, derived from publicly available or government or industry sources that have not been independently verified. No representation or warranty is made as to the accuracy, completeness or reliability of such information. There is a risk that the estimates, judgements, assumptions, views, models, scenarios or projections used by Westpac may turn out to be incorrect. These risks may cause actual outcomes, including the ability to meet commitments and targets, to differ materially from those expressed or implied in this presentation. The climate and sustainability related forward-looking statements made in this presentation are not guarantees or predictions of future performance and Westpac gives no representation, warranty or assurance (including as to the quality, accuracy or completeness of these statements), nor guarantee that the occurrence of the events expressed or implied in any forward-looking statement will occur. There are usually differences between forecast and actual results because events and actual circumstances frequently do not occur as forecast and these differences may be material. Westpac will continue to review and develop its approach to ESG as this subject area matures. 134 Westpac Group 2023 Full Year Results Presentation & Investor Discussion Pack DISCLAIMER DISCLAIMER |
