Actual income/loss may differ from such estimates.

Table of Contents

The Bank has prepared these financial statements by applying the regulations of the BCRA, which do not contemplate some of the valuation criteria established by the Argentine professional accounting standards.

The main differences between the regulations of the BCRA and the Argentine professional accounting standards are detailed below:

As already indicated hereinbelow, in note 4.1., the Bank has received various communications from the BCRA pursuant to which that BCRA indicates that the capitalization of items arising from the application of the deferred tax method is not allowed, In accordance with Argentine professional accounting standards, a deferred tax asset should be recognized to the extent the reversal of temporary differences generates a future decrease in the tax effectively determined. As a result, the allowances set up by the Bank in this respect, for 488,800 and 246,300 as of June 30, 2016 and the end of the previous fiscal year, respectively, should be reversed.

Moreover, the effect on the income statement of the periods ended June 30, 2016 and 2015 would have been 242,500 and 39,900 (gain), respectively.

As explained in notes 2.3.n) and 12, as of June 30, 2016 and the end of the previous fiscal year, the Bank recorded the effects of interest rate swap agreements as established by the BCRA. Should the Bank had applied the Argentine professional accounting standards, the stockholders’ equity would have decreased in 7,769 and 32,906, respectively. By contrast, the effect of the application of the professional accounting standards on the income statement for the periods ended June 30, 2016 and 2015 would have been 25,137 and 8 (gain), respectively.

4.1. Income tax

The Bank determined the charge for income tax by applying the statutory 35% rate to taxable income estimated for fiscal year considering the effect of temporary differences between valuation of assets and liabilities for accounting purposes and their taxable bases. The Bank considered as temporary differences those that have a definitive reversal date in subsequent years.

As of June 30, 2016 and 2015, the Bank recorded 1,334,000 and 859,000, respectively, in the Income tax caption as the estimate of the income tax charge payable to the tax authorities for these fiscal years.

As of June 30, 2016 and the end of the previous fiscal year, the Bank has booked 879,563 and 467,959, respectively, in the caption Other liabilities – Other – Accrued Taxes as a result of having netted the income tax withholdings and other withholdings applied to the Bank until such dates.

Table of Contents

Besides, on June 19, 2003, the Bank received a note from the BCRA indicating that the capitalization of items arising from the application of the deferred tax method is not allowed.

On June 26, 2003, the Bank, based on the opinion of its legal counsel, responded the above mentioned note, indicating that in their opinion the rules of the BCRA do not prohibit the application of the deferred tax method generated by the recognition of temporary differences between the accounting and tax result, Subsequently, Resolution 118/03 of the Superintendent of Financial and Exchange Institutions received on October 7, 2003 confirmed the terms of the note dated June 19, 2003, Consequently, as from that date the Bank set up an allowance for the net balance between the deferred tax assets and liabilities.

As of June 30, 2016 and the end of the previous fiscal year, the Bank recorded under Other Receivables (in the line Tax Prepayments) a taxable deferred asset amounting 488,800 and 246,300, respectively. Such amounts are made up as follows:

4.2. Tax on minimum presumed income

Tax on minimum presumed income (TOMPI) was established by Law Nr. 25.063 in the year ended December 31, 1998, for a ten-year term, On December 19, 2008 Law Nr. 26.426 established a one-year extension in TOMPI until December 30, 2009, In turn, Law Nr. 26.545, published in the Official Gazette on December 2, 2009 extended TOMPI for an additional ten-year period, This tax is supplementary to income tax: while the latter is levied on the taxable income for the year, TOMPI is a minimum levy determined by applying the current 1% rate on the potential income of certain productive assets, Therefore, the Bank’s tax obligation for each year will coincide with the highest of these taxes, The above Law provides that institutions governed by Financial Institutions Law must consider as a tax base 20% of their taxable assets, after deducting non-computable ones, However, if TOMPI exceeds income tax in a given year, the excess thereof may be computed as a payment on account of any income tax in excess of TOMPI that may occur in any of the following ten years.

In every year that net operating losses are offset, the tax benefit (the benefit of the effective rate on the net operating loss used) will be realized to the extent that income tax (net of the offsetting) equals or exceeds tax on minimum presumed income, but will be reduced by any excess of the latter over former.

On February 11, 2005, the Argentine Central Bank issued Communication “A” 4295 whereby it enabled, under certain rules, the accounting record of credits on Tax on Minimum Presumed Income.

As of June 30, 2016 and 2015, the Income tax assessed was higher than the TOMPI. Therefore, a provision was raised for Income tax.

4.3. Other tax issues

On April 28, 2009, the Court of Appeals with Federal Jurisdiction over Contentious Administrative Matters, Panel 3 handed down a judgment favourable to a petition filed by the Bank for the judge to suspend the effect of the decision made by administrative authorities until the appeal is decided. The judgment thus ordered that “…subject to a sworn promise to comply … a) the Tax Bureau of the City of Buenos Aires must suspend the sua sponte assessment that has objected to the treatment afforded by BBVA Francés to the bonds received from the National Government in the terms of Decree Nr. 905-02 and the related foreign exchange gains/losses in all matters related to taxation for turnover tax purposes for the fiscal period 2002; b) therefore, the Tax Bureau of the City of Buenos Aires must abstain from demanding that the Bank should pay any amount due that may have arisen from the items above detailed”.

Also in this respect, on May 13, 2009, an action for a declaratory judgment was commenced by the Bank against the Tax Bureau of the City of Buenos Aires, currently being heard by the court with original Federal Jurisdiction over Contentious Administrative Matters Nr. 1, to procure a judgment ascertaining that a) the bonds received by the Bank from the National Government as compensation for the asymmetric conversion into pesos of assets and liabilities imposed by the Executive Order Nr. 905/2002 may not be levied with Turnover Tax in the Autonomous City of Buenos Aires; b) the foreign exchange gains/losses are a direct effect of the modification of the monetary system and therefore should not be levied with Turnover Tax in the Autonomous City of Buenos Aires.

On December 29, 2010, the Judge presiding over the court with original Federal Jurisdiction over Contentious Administrative Matters Nr. 1 handed down a new precautionary measure,

The Bank as well as its legal and tax advisors estimate that the Bank has made a reasonable interpretation of currently applicable rules and regulations concerning the fiscal periods objected to by the Tax Bureau of the City of Buenos Aires and do not expect an adverse financial impact in these respects.

As regards the remaining balance of the amount claimed, the Bank adhered to a scheme of payment in instalments that was settled on October 4, 2010.

On February 3, 2015, the Bank was notified of the passage of Resolution Nr. 2014-3711-DGR, which conceded the appeal in part.

This Resolution was appealed by lodging a so-called “hierarchical appeal” with the head of the governmental agency in charge of raising public revenue, which was rejected, thus putting an end to the administrative stage.

For the sole purpose of being able to continue with the submission of the lawsuit, dated November 24, 2015, the Entity paid the amount claimed, which does not entail its acceptance of the claim.
