Q3 2021 Results Announcement

30 September 2021

Performance Highlights

The Group's diversified business model delivered a record Group profit before tax of GBP6.9bn (Q320 YTD: GBP2.4bn), a return on tangible equity (RoTE) of 14.9% (Q320 YTD: 3.6%) and earnings per share (EPS) of 30.8p (Q320 YTD: 7.6p)

 
James E Staley, Chief Executive Officer, commented 
 "On top of a good first half, a strong third quarter performance means Barclays has delivered 
 its highest Q3 YTD pre-tax profit on record in 2021, demonstrating the benefits of our diversified 
 business model. We continue to support our customers and clients through the COVID-19 pandemic, 
 have achieved a double-digit RoTE in every quarter year to date, and expect to deliver a full 
 year RoTE above 10%. While the CIB performance continues to be an area of strength for the 
 Group, we are also seeing evidence of a consumer recovery and the early signs of a more favourable 
 rate environment. Against that backdrop, we are focused on balancing cost efficiencies with 
 further investment into high-returning growth opportunities. Our CET1 ratio of 15.4% means 
 we are also in a strong position to balance this growth with a key priority of returning excess 
 capital to shareholders."

Performance highlights:

 
 --   Strong Corporate and Investment Bank (CIB) performance: Investment 
       Banking fees and Equities income had their best Q3 YTD on a comparable 
       basis(1) driving a CIB RoTE of 16.4% (Q320 YTD:10.5%) 
 --   Ongoing consumer recovery and well positioned for a rising rate 
       environment: continue to experience strong UK mortgage and deposit 
       volumes. Although yet to translate into meaningful unsecured balance 
       growth, positive trends in UK and US consumer spending and in payments 
       volumes have been observed following easing of lockdown restrictions 
 --   Investing for growth: reinvesting efficiency savings to drive 
       income growth. Excluding structural cost actions and performance 
       costs, Group total operating expenses were flat 
 --   Net credit impairment release: GBP0.6bn Q321 YTD release driven 
       by an improved macroeconomic outlook and benign credit performance 
 --   Strong capital: Common equity tier 1 (CET1) ratio of 15.4%, above 
       the target range of 13-14% 
 

Summary outlook:

 
 --   Returns: expect to deliver a RoTE above 10% in 2021 
 --   Impairment: the impairment run rate is expected to remain below 
       historical levels in coming quarters 
 --   Costs: excluding structural cost actions and performance costs, 
       FY21 costs are expected to be c.GBP12bn(2) . The Group is evaluating 
       planned structural cost actions for Q421 
 --   Capital: the CET1 ratio is expected to remain above the target 
       range of 13-14% at 31 December 2021 
 --   Capital returns: maintaining a progressive ordinary dividend policy 
       and additional cash returns, including share buybacks, as appropriate 
 
 
 1   Period covering Q114 - Q321. Pre 2014 financials were not restated 
      following re-segmentation in Q116. 
 2   Group cost outlook is based on an average rate of 1.38 (USD/GBP) 
      in H221 and subject to foreign currency movements.

Group Finance Director's Review

Group performance(1)

 
 --   The Group's diversified business model enabled Barclays to deliver 
       a record profit before tax of GBP6,940m (Q320 YTD: GBP2,419m), 
       RoTE of 14.9% (Q320 YTD: 3.6%) and EPS of 30.8p (Q320 YTD: 7.6p) 
 --   Total income was stable at GBP16,780m (Q320 YTD: GBP16,825m). Barclays 
       UK income increased 2%. Barclays International income decreased 
       2%, with CIB income down 1% and Consumer, Cards and Payments (CC&P) 
       income down 6%. Excluding the impact of the 9% depreciation of 
       average USD against GBP, total income was up, reflecting the Group's 
       diversified income streams 
 --   Credit impairment net release of GBP622m (Q320 YTD: GBP4,346m charge). 
       The net release included a reversal of GBP1.1bn in non-default 
       charges, primarily reflecting the improved macroeconomic outlook. 
       Excluding this reversal, the charge was GBP0.5bn, reflecting reduced 
       unsecured lending balances and low delinquency. Management judgements 
       have been maintained in the quarter in respect of customers and 
       clients considered to be potentially more vulnerable as government 
       and other support schemes have started to reduce. The reduction 
       in unsecured lending balances and growth in secured balances have 
       contributed to a decrease in the Group's loan coverage ratio to 
       1.7% (December 2020: 2.4%). Loan coverage ratios in unsecured and 
       wholesale loan portfolios remained elevated compared to pre-COVID-19 
       pandemic levels 
 --   Total operating expenses increased 6% to GBP10,709m, due to structural 
       cost actions of GBP392m primarily relating to the real estate review 
       in Q221, higher performance costs that reflect improved returns, 
       and continued investment and business growth, partially offset 
       by the benefit from the depreciation of average USD against GBP 
       and efficiency savings. This resulted in a cost: income ratio of 
       64% (Q320 YTD: 60%) 
 --   The effective tax rate was 15.5% (Q320 YTD: 18.2%). This reflects 
       a GBP402m tax benefit recognised for the re-measurement of the 
       Group's UK deferred tax assets (DTAs) as a result of the UK corporation 
       tax rate increase from 19% to 25% effective from 1 April 2023. 
       The UK Government is reviewing the additional 8% surcharge tax 
       that applies to banks' profits and if the conclusion of that review 
       is that the surcharge is reduced then the Group's UK DTAs would 
       be re-measured again and decreased, the exact timing of an enactment 
       of a reduction in the surcharge is uncertain but would be expected 
       to occur in H122 
 --   Attributable profit was GBP5,258m (Q320 YTD: GBP1,306m) 
 --   Following the completion of the GBP700m share buyback announced 
       with FY20 results and the ongoing GBP500m share buyback announced 
       with H121 results, the period end number of shares was 16,851m 
       (December 2020: 17,359m) 
 --   Total assets increased to GBP1,407bn (December 2020: GBP1,350bn) 
       primarily due to a GBP37bn increase in cash at central banks, a 
       GBP29bn increase in financial assets at fair value due to an increase 
       in secured lending, a GBP18bn increase in cash collateral and settlement 
       balances and a GBP17bn increase in trading portfolio assets due 
       to increased activity, partially offset by a GBP44bn decrease in 
       derivative assets driven by an increase in major interest rate 
       curves 
 --   Deposits at amortised cost increased GBP29bn to GBP510bn further 
       strengthening the Group's liquidity position and contributing to 
       a loan: deposit ratio of 69% (December 2020: 71%) 
 --   Tangible net asset value (TNAV) per share increased to 287p (December 
       2020: 269p) primarily reflecting 30.8p of EPS, partially offset 
       by negative reserve movements 
 

Barclays UK

 
 --   Profit before tax increased to GBP1,957m (Q320 YTD: GBP264m). RoTE 
       was 17.9% (Q320 YTD: 2.2%) reflecting materially lower credit impairment 
       charges 
 --   Total income increased 2% to GBP4,837m. Net interest income reduced 
       1% to GBP3,889m with a net interest margin (NIM) of 2.53% (Q320 
       YTD: 2.63%) as strong customer retention and improved margins in 
       mortgages was more than offset by lower unsecured lending balances. 
       Net fee, commission and other income increased 18% to GBP948m, 
       returning back towards pre-COVID-19 pandemic levels 
      -    Personal Banking income increased 10% to GBP2,900m, reflecting 
            strong growth in mortgages alongside improved margins, balance 
            growth in deposits and the non-recurrence of COVID-19 customer 
            support actions, partially offset by deposit margin compression 
            from lower interest rates and lower unsecured lending balances 
      -    Barclaycard Consumer UK income decreased 23% to GBP898m as reduced 
            borrowing and repayments by customers resulted in a lower level 
            of interest earning lending (IEL) balances 
      -    Business Banking income increased 12% to GBP1,039m due to lending 
            and deposit balance growth from GBP12.1bn of government scheme 
            lending and the non-recurrence of COVID-19 and related customer 
            support actions, partially offset by deposit margin compression 
            from lower interest rates 
 
 
 1   The 9% depreciation of average USD against GBP adversely impacted 
      income and profits and positively impacted total operating expenses. 
 

Barclays UK (continued)

 
 --   Credit impairment net release of GBP306m (Q320 YTD: GBP1,297m charge) 
       driven by an improved macroeconomic outlook and lower unsecured 
       lending balances due to customer repayments and lower delinquencies. 
       As at 30 September 2021, 30 and 90 day arrears rates in UK cards 
       were 1.0% (Q320: 1.7%) and 0.3% (Q320: 0.8%) respectively 
 --   Total operating expenses were stable at GBP3,187m (Q320 YTD: GBP3,172m) 
       reflecting investment spend and higher operational and customer 
       service costs primarily driven by increased volumes, offset by 
       efficiency savings 
 --   Loans and advances to customers at amortised cost increased 2% 
       to GBP208.6bn predominantly from GBP9.2bn of mortgage growth following 
       a strong flow of new applications as well as strong customer retention, 
       offset by a GBP2.3bn decrease in the Education, Social Housing 
       and Local Authority (ESHLA) portfolio carrying value as interest 
       rate yield curves have steepened, GBP1.7bn lower unsecured lending 
       balances and GBP0.5bn lower Business Banking balances as repayment 
       of government scheme lending takes effect 
 --   Customer deposits at amortised cost increased 7% to GBP256.8bn 
       reflecting an increase of GBP13.6bn and GBP2.8bn in Personal Banking 
       and Business Banking respectively, further strengthening the liquidity 
       position and contributing to a loan: deposit ratio of 86% (December 
       2020: 89%) 
 --   RWAs decreased to GBP73.2bn (December 2020: GBP73.7bn) as growth 
       in mortgages was more than offset by a reduction in unsecured lending 
       and the ESHLA portfolio 
 

Barclays International

 
 --   Profit before tax increased 97% to GBP5,500m with a RoTE of 16.4% 
       (Q320 YTD: 7.5%), reflecting a RoTE of 16.4% (Q320 YTD: 10.5%) 
       in CIB and 16.2% (Q320 YTD: (10.6)%) in CC&P 
 --   The 9% depreciation of average USD against GBP adversely impacted 
       income and profits and positively impacted total operating expenses 
 --   Total income decreased to GBP12,155m (Q320 YTD: GBP12,435m) 
      -                                    CIB income decreased 1% to GBP9,702m 
                                           -                                     Global Markets income decreased 14% 
                                                                                 to GBP5,368m as a strong 
                                                                                 performance in Equities, representing 
                                                                                 the best Q3 YTD on a 
                                                                                 comparable basis(1) , was more than

Barclays International (continued)

 
 --   Total assets increased to GBP1,076bn (December 2020: GBP1,042bn) 
       primarily due to a GBP30bn increase in financial assets at fair 
       value, due to an increase in secured lending, a GBP18bn increase 
       in cash collateral and settlements balances, and a GBP17bn increase 
       in trading portfolio assets, due to increased activity, partially 
       offset by a GBP45bn decrease in derivative assets driven by an 
       increase in major interest rate curves 
 --   RWAs increased to GBP222.7bn (December 2020: GBP222.3bn) 
 

Head Office

 
 --   Loss before tax was GBP517m (Q320 YTD: GBP639m) 
 --   Total income was an expense of GBP212m (Q320 YTD: GBP331m), which 
       primarily reflected hedge accounting, funding costs on legacy capital 
       instruments and treasury items, partially offset by mark-to-market 
       gains on legacy investments and the recognition of dividends on 
       Barclays' stake in Absa Group Limited 
 --   Total operating expenses were GBP519m (Q320 YTD: GBP217m), which 
       included a charge of GBP266m relating to structural cost actions 
       taken as part of the real estate review in Q221, as well as costs 
       associated with the discontinued use of software assets 
 --   Other net income was GBP209m (Q320 YTD: GBP31m expense) driven 
       by a fair value gain in Barclays' associate investment holding 
       in the Business Growth Fund 
 

Group capital and leverage

 
 --   The CET1 ratio increased to 15.4% (December 2020: 15.1%) 
      -   CET1 capital increased by GBP1.0bn to GBP47.3bn (December 2020: 
           GBP46.3bn) as profit before tax of GBP6.9bn was partially offset 
           by the removal of temporary regulatory supporting measures introduced 
           in 2020, share buybacks, dividends and equity coupons paid and 
           foreseen and pensions deficit contribution payments. The GBP1.1bn 
           release of non-defaulted credit impairment was more than offset 
           by the related reduction in IFRS 9 transitional relief which 
           also decreased due to impairment migrations from Stage 2 to Stage 
           3 and the relief on the pre-2020 impairment charge reducing from 
           70% to 50% in 2021 
      -   RWAs increased GBP1.3bn to GBP307.5bn (December 2020: GBP306.2bn) 
           primarily due to a growth in mortgages within Barclays UK, partially 
           offset by lower consumer lending 
 --   The average UK leverage ratio decreased to 4.9% (December 2020: 
       5.0%). The average leverage exposure increased by GBP52.9bn to 
       GBP1,199.8bn (December 2020: GBP1,146.9bn) largely driven by an 
       increase in securities financing transactions (SFTs), potential 
       future exposure (PFE) on derivatives and trading portfolio assets 
       (TPAs) 
 

Group funding and liquidity

 
 --   The liquidity pool was GBP293bn (December 2020: GBP266bn) and the 
       liquidity coverage ratio remained significantly above the 100% 
       regulatory requirement at 161% (December 2020: 162%), equivalent 
       to a surplus of GBP107bn (December 2020: GBP99bn). The increase 
       in the pool is driven by deposit growth, borrowing from the Bank 
       of England's Term Funding Scheme with additional incentives for 
       SMEs and a seasonal increase in short-term wholesale funding, which 
       were partly offset by an increase in business funding consumption 
 --   Wholesale funding outstanding, excluding repurchase agreements, 
       was GBP165.2bn (December 2020: GBP145.0bn). The Group issued GBP8.2bn 
       equivalent of minimum requirement for own funds and eligible liabilities 
       (MREL) instruments from Barclays PLC (the Parent company) during 
       the year. The Group is well advanced in its MREL issuance plans 
       relative to the estimated 1 January 2022 requirement 
 

Capital distributions

 
 --   Barclays understands the importance of delivering attractive total 
       cash returns to shareholders. Barclays is therefore committed to 
       maintaining an appropriate balance between total cash returns to 
       shareholders, investment in the business and maintaining a strong 
       capital position. Barclays pays a progressive ordinary dividend, 
       taking into account these objectives and the earnings outlook of 
       the Group. The Board will also continue to supplement the ordinary 
       dividends with additional cash returns, including share buybacks, 
       to shareholders as appropriate 
 --   Barclays paid a half year dividend of 2.0p per share on 17 September 
       2021 and initiated the share buyback of up to GBP500m announced 
       with H121 results in August 2021, of which GBP279m was completed 
       as at 30 September 2021. This was in addition to the GBP700m share 
       buyback completed in April 2021 
 --   Dividends will continue to be paid semi-annually, with the half 
       year dividend expected to represent, under normal circumstances, 
       around one-third of the total dividend for the year 
 

Group outlook and targets

 
 --   Returns: expect to deliver a RoTE above 10% in 2021 
 --   Impairment: the impairment run rate is expected to remain below 
       historical levels in coming quarters given reduced unsecured lending 
       balances and the improved macroeconomic outlook, acknowledging 
       the continuing uncertainty 
 --   Costs: FY21 costs, excluding structural cost actions and performance 
       costs, are expected to be c.GBP12bn(1) . The Group will continue 
       to drive efficiencies in its franchises and is evaluating planned 
       structural cost actions in Q421, including in Barclays UK 
 --   Capital: the CET1 ratio is expected to remain above the target 
       range of 13-14% at 31 December 2021, given the uncertain economic 
       environment and known capital headwinds in 2022 of c.75bps, which 
       includes a c.40bps impact from the reversal of software amortisation 
       benefit from 1 January 2022 
 --   Capital returns: capital returns policy incorporates a progressive 
       ordinary dividend, supplemented by additional cash returns, including 
       share buybacks as appropriate. Dividends will continue to be paid 
       semi-annually, with the half year dividend expected to represent, 
       under normal circumstances, around one-third of the total dividend 
       for the year 
 

Barclays continues to target the following over the medium term:

 
 --   Returns: RoTE of greater than 10% 
 --   Cost efficiency: cost: income ratio below 60% 
 --   Capital adequacy: CET1 ratio in the range of 13-14%

 1   Barclays International margins include IEL balances within the 
      investment banking business. 
 2   Barclays amended the presentation of the premium paid for purchased 
      financial guarantees which are embedded in notes it issues directly 
      to the market in Q420 from net investment income to interest expense 
      within net interest income. Had the equivalent Q320 YTD interest 
      expense been recognised in net interest income, the Barclays International 
      and Total Barclays UK and Barclays International NIMs would have 
      been 3.60% and 2.95% respectively. 
 3   Other includes Head Office and non-lending related investment banking 
      businesses not included in Barclays International margins. 
 

The Group's combined product and equity structural hedge notional as at 30 September 2021 was GBP224bn (September 2020: GBP181bn), with an average duration of close to 3 years (2020: average duration 2.5 to 3 years). Group net interest income includes gross structural hedge contributions of GBP1,042m (Q320 YTD: GBP1,273m) and net structural hedge contributions of GBP889m (Q320 YTD: GBP917m). Gross structural hedge contributions represent the absolute level of interest earned from the fixed receipts on the basket of swaps in the structural hedge, while the net structural hedge contributions represent the net interest earned on the difference between the structural hedge rate and prevailing floating rates.

 1   Barclays International margins include IEL balances within the 
      investment banking business. 
 2   The reclassification of expense of the premium paid for purchased 
      financial guarantees from net investment income to net interest 
      income was recognised in full in Q420 and resulted in a 0.48% reduction 
      on the Q420 Barclays International NIM and 0.14% reduction on the 
      Q420 Total Barclays UK and Barclays International NIM. Had the 
      equivalent impact been reflected in the respective quarters, the 
      Barclays International NIM would have been 3.68% in Q320 and 3.77% 
      in Q420. Total Barclays UK and Barclays International NIMs would 
      have been 2.86% in Q320 and 2.91% in Q420 respectively. 
 

Credit Risk

Loans and advances at amortised cost by stage

The table below presents an analysis of loans and advances at amortised cost by gross exposure, impairment allowance, impairment charge and coverage ratio by stage allocation and business segment as at 30 September 2021. Also included are off-balance sheet loan commitments and financial guarantee contracts by gross exposure, impairment allowance and coverage ratio by stage allocation as at 30 September 2021.

Impairment allowance under IFRS 9 considers both the drawn and the undrawn counterparty exposure. For retail portfolios, the total impairment allowance is allocated to the drawn exposure to the extent that the allowance does not exceed the exposure, as Expected Credit Losses (ECL) is not reported separately. Any excess is reported on the liability side of the balance sheet as a provision. For wholesale portfolios, the impairment allowance on the undrawn exposure is reported on the liability side of the balance sheet as a provision.

Measurement uncertainty

Forecast Macroeconomic Variables were refreshed in Q321, following on from the Q221 update, with key drivers for the Baseline scenario more optimistic than Q420 and Q221. In the Baseline scenario, UK GDP returns to the pre-COVID-19 pandemic levels by early 2022 with peak UK unemployment of 5.4% in Q122. In the Upside 2 scenario, effective fiscal stimulus measures, including public investments in infrastructure and skills, provide a boost to demand and confidence, which in turn leads to economic activity in almost all advanced economies returning to the pre-COVID-19 pandemic levels by the end of 2021. Unemployment levels decline back to 5% by Q122 in the UK, and to 4% by Q222 in the US. In the Downside 2 scenario, supply and distribution issues slow the vaccination process and the emergence of new virus variants that are not susceptible to the existing vaccines results in full national lockdowns. This leads to significant falls in GDP in Q421 and UK and US unemployment reaching c.10% and 12% respectively in Q122.

The Group uses a five-scenario model to calculate ECL. The methodology for estimating probability weights used in calculating ECL involves simulating a range of future paths for UK and US GDP using historical data. The five scenarios are mapped against the distribution of these future paths, with the median centred around the Baseline such that scenarios further from the Baseline attract a lower weighting. The range of future paths generated in the calculation of the weights at 30 September 2021 is narrower than at 30 June 2021 and 31 December 2020 due to continued growth in UK and US GDP and lower levels of uncertainty. The Upside 2 and Downside 2 scenarios are therefore nearer the tails of the distribution than previously resulting in lower weightings.

In isolation, the reduction in Baseline unemployment forecast between Q2 and Q3 would lead to a reduction in unsecured ECL. However, the reduction in Downside 2 unemployment forecast between Q2 and Q3 is lower than the movement in the Baseline unemployment forecast; this widening delta between Baseline and Downside 2 unemployment forecast moderates the overall impact.

Although the macroeconomic outlook has improved, the level of uncertainty is relatively high. Unemployment remains at elevated levels, with a significant number of jobs at risk of redundancy as measures of support are tapered down in the UK, US and Germany between the end of Q321 and Q122 respectively. To date, limited defaults have been observed in response to the COVID-19 pandemic, but credit deterioration may occur as support is withdrawn. This uncertainty continues to be captured in two distinct ways: firstly, the identification of specific customers and clients who may be more vulnerable to the withdrawal of relief and secondly, macroeconomic and risk parameter uncertainties which are applied at a portfolio level. As a result, economic uncertainty PMAs and total PMAs remained relatively stable at GBP2.0bn (30 June 2021: GBP2.1bn) and GBP2.0bn (30 June 2021: GBP1.9bn) respectively.

The tables below show the key consensus macroeconomic variables used in the Baseline scenario and the probability weights applied to each scenario.

Capital

The Group's Overall Capital Requirement for CET1 is 11.2% comprising a 4.5% Pillar 1 minimum, a 2.5% Capital Conservation Buffer (CCB), a 1.5% Global Systemically Important Institution (G-SII) buffer, a 2.7% Pillar 2A requirement and a 0% Countercyclical Capital Buffer (CCyB).

The Group's CCyB is based on the buffer rate applicable for each jurisdiction in which the Group has exposures. On 11 March 2020, the Financial Policy Committee (FPC) set the CCyB rate for UK exposures at 0% with immediate effect. The buffer rates set by other national authorities for non-UK exposures are not currently material. Overall, this results in a 0.0% CCyB for the Group.

The Group's Pillar 2A requirement as per the PRA's Individual Capital Requirement is 4.8% of which at least 56.25% needs to be met with CET1 capital, equating to approximately 2.7% of RWAs. The Pillar 2A requirement is subject to at least annual review and has been set as a nominal capital amount. This is based on a point in time assessment and the requirement (when expressed as a proportion of RWAs) will change depending on the total RWAs at each reporting period.

Following the withdrawal of the UK from the EU, any references to CRR as amended by CRR II mean, unless otherwise specified, CRR as amended by CRR II, as it forms part of UK law pursuant to the European Union (Withdrawal) Act 2018 and subject to the temporary transitional powers (TTP) available to UK regulators to delay or phase-in on-shoring changes to UK regulatory requirements arising at the end of the transition period until 31 March 2022, as at the applicable reporting date. Throughout the TTP period, the Bank of England (BoE) and PRA will continue to review the UK regulatory framework and the Group disclosures will reflect the amended framework as applicable at the effective reporting date.

On 14 October 2021, the PRA published their final Policy Statement on the implementation of Basel III standards. The Policy Statement confirmed the PRA's intention to revert to the previous treatment of 100% CET1 capital deduction for qualifying software assets, meaning the c.40bps benefit in the CET1 ratio will be reversed from 1 January 2022.

CET1 capital increased GBP1.0bn to GBP47.3bn (December 2020: GBP46.3bn). GBP5.8bn of capital generated from profits were partially offset by distributions of GBP2.6bn comprising:

 
 --   GBP0.8bn of dividends paid and foreseen for ordinary shares, which 
       includes GBP0.3bn for the 2.0p per share half year dividend and 
       a GBP0.4bn accrual towards a FY21 dividend 
 --   GBP1.2bn for share buybacks made up of GBP0.7bn for the share buyback 
       announced with FY20 results and GBP0.5bn for the share buyback 
       announced with H121 results; and 
 --   GBP0.6bn of equity coupons paid 
 

Other significant movements in the period were:

 
 --   A GBP0.7bn decrease as a result of movements relating to pensions, 
       largely due to deficit contribution payments of GBP0.35bn in April 
       2021 and September 2021 
 --   A GBP0.3bn increase in the PVA deduction due to the removal of 
       temporary regulatory supporting measures applied to certain additional 
       valuation adjustments 
 --   A GBP1.2bn decrease in IFRS 9 transitional relief, after tax, primarily 
       due to a credit impairment net release, impairment migrations from 
       Stage 2 to Stage 3 and a decrease to the amount of relief applied 
       to the pre-2020 impairment charge reducing to 50% in 2021 from 
       70% in 2020

Overall RWAs increased GBP1.3bn to GBP307.5bn (December 2020: GBP306.2bn).

Credit risk RWAs remained broadly stable:

 
 --   A GBP1.9bn increase in book size mainly driven by growth in mortgages 
       within Barclays UK, partially offset by lower consumer lending 
       and ESHLA 
 --   A GBP1.0bn decrease in acquisitions and disposals mainly driven 
       by disposal of wholesale loans during the year 
 

Counterparty Credit risk RWAs increased GBP4.3bn:

 
 --   A GBP3.9bn increase in book size primarily due to an increase in 
       trading activities within SFTs and derivatives 
 

Market risk RWAs decreased GBP3.1bn:

 
 --   A GBP1.8bn decrease in book size primarily due to reduced risk 
       taking in Equities and Counterparty Risk Trading in the period 
 --   A GBP1.3bn decrease in methodology and policy is driven by a change 
       in the historical lookback period of the VaR model from two years 
       to one year 
 

Leverage ratio and exposures

The Group is subject to a leverage ratio requirement of 3.8% as at 30 September 2021. This comprises the 3.25% minimum requirement, a G-SII additional leverage ratio buffer (G-SII ALRB) of 0.53% and a countercyclical leverage ratio buffer of 0.0%. Although the leverage ratio is expressed in terms of T1 capital, 75% of the minimum requirement, equating to 2.4375%, needs to be met with CET1 capital. In addition, the G-SII ALRB must be covered solely with CET1 capital. The CET1 capital held against the 0.53% G-SII ALRB was GBP6.3bn.

The Group is required to disclose an average UK leverage ratio which is based on capital on the last day of each month in the quarter and an exposure measure for each day in the quarter. The Group is also required to disclose a UK leverage ratio based on capital and exposure on the last day of the quarter. Both approaches exclude qualifying claims on central banks from the leverage exposures and include the PRA's adoption of CRR II settlement netting.

On 8 October 2021, the PRA published its Policy Statement on the UK leverage ratio framework. The Policy Statement confirms that UK banks will be subject to a single UK leverage ratio requirement meaning that the CRR leverage ratio will no longer apply for UK banks from 1 January 2022. Whilst largely upholding the existing framework, technical changes generally align to the Basel III standards with the exception of the qualifying claims on central banks exemption. From 1 January 2022 central bank claims can be excluded from the UK leverage ratio measure as long as they are matched by qualifying liabilities (rather than deposits). Minimum requirements for the Group remain the same with minimum requirements also expected to be applied at the individual level; individual requirements may be replaced with a sub-consolidated measure, subject to permission from the PRA, from 1 January 2023.

 1   Fully loaded average UK leverage ratio was 4.8%, with GBP57.3bn 
      of T1 capital and GBP1,198.5bn of leverage exposure. Fully loaded 
      UK leverage ratio was 5.0%, with GBP58.1bn of T1 capital and GBP1,159.7bn 
      of leverage exposure. Fully loaded UK leverage ratios are calculated 
      without applying the transitional arrangements of the CRR as amended 
      by CRR II. 
 2   Capital and leverage measures are calculated applying the transitional 
      arrangements of the CRR as amended by CRR II. 
 3   T1 capital is calculated in line with the PRA Handbook. 
 

The average UK leverage ratio decreased to 4.9% (December 2020: 5.0%). The average leverage exposure increased by GBP52.9bn to GBP1,199.8bn (December 2020: GBP1,146.9bn) largely driven by an increase in SFTs, PFE on derivatives and TPAs.

The UK leverage ratio decreased to 5.1% (December 2020: 5.3%). The UK leverage exposure increased by GBP70.1bn to GBP1,161.0bn (December 2020: GBP1,090.9bn) primarily driven by a GBP26.9bn increase in SFTs, a GBP26.5bn increase in PFE on derivatives and a GBP17.0bn increase in TPAs due to increased trading activity in CIB.

The Group also discloses a CRR leverage ratio (1) within its additional regulatory disclosures prepared in accordance with EBA guidelines on disclosure under Part Eight of the CRR (see Barclays PLC Pillar 3 Report Q3 2021, expected to be published on 21 October 2021 and which will be available at home.barclays/investor-relations/reports-and-events/latest-financial-results ).

MREL

The Group is currently required to meet the higher of: (i) the requirements set by the BoE based on RWAs and the higher of average and UK leverage exposures; and (ii) the requirements in CRR as amended by CRR II based on RWAs and CRR leverage exposures. The MREL requirements are subject to phased implementation and will be fully implemented by 1 January 2022. As at 30 September 2021, the Group's MREL requirement was to meet 6.9% of CRR leverage exposures.

On 22 July 2021 the BoE published a consultation paper on its approach to setting MREL. Under the proposed changes to their 2018 Statement of Policy, from 1 January 2022, the Group's expected MREL requirements will be to meet the higher of: (i) two times the sum of Pillar 1 and Pillar 2A; and (ii) the higher of two times the applicable leverage ratio requirement or 6.75% of leverage exposures. Given UK banks will be subject to a single UK leverage ratio requirement from 1 January 2022, the CRR leverage exposure requirements in relation to MREL may not apply from that date. Additionally, the proposals clarify that own funds instruments issued by subsidiaries will no longer be eligible to count towards the Group's MREL from 1 January 2022.

CET1 capital cannot be counted towards both MREL and the capital buffers, meaning that the buffers will effectively be applied above MREL requirements.

      9 transitional arrangements and the grandfathering of CRR and CRR 
      II non-compliant capital instruments. 
 2   The BoE has set external MREL based on the higher of RWAs and CRR 
      or UK leverage exposures which could result in the binding measure 
      changing in future periods. The 30 September 2021 Barclays PLC 
      (the Parent company) own funds and eligible liabilities ratio as 
      a percentage of the UK leverage exposure was 9.2% and as a percentage 
      of the average UK leverage exposure was 8.9%.

      of GBP80m (December 2020: GBP80m), and other T2 credit risk adjustments 
      and deductions of GBP62m (December 2020: GBP103m).

Appendix: Non-IFRS Performance Measures

The Group's management believes that the non-IFRS performance measures included in this document provide valuable information to the readers of the financial statements as they enable the reader to identify a more consistent basis for comparing the businesses' performance between financial periods, and provide more detail concerning the elements of performance which the managers of these businesses are most directly able to influence or are relevant for an assessment of the Group. They also reflect an important aspect of the way in which operating targets are defined and performance is monitored by management.

However, any non-IFRS performance measures in this document are not a substitute for IFRS measures and readers should consider the IFRS measures as well.

Returns

Return on average tangible equity is calculated as profit after tax attributable to ordinary equity holders of the parent as a proportion of average tangible equity, excluding non-controlling and other equity interests for businesses. Allocated tangible equity has been calculated as 13.5% (2020: 13.0%) of RWAs for each business, adjusted for capital deductions, excluding goodwill and intangible assets, reflecting the assumptions the Group uses for capital planning purposes. Head Office average allocated tangible equity represents the difference between the Group's average tangible shareholders' equity and the amounts allocated to businesses.

Notes

The terms Barclays or Group refer to Barclays PLC together with its subsidiaries. Unless otherwise stated, the income statement analysis compares the nine months ended 30 September 2021 to the corresponding nine months of 2020 and balance sheet analysis as at 30 September 2021 with comparatives relating to 31 December 2020 and 30 September 2020. The abbreviations 'GBPm' and 'GBPbn' represent millions and thousands of millions of Pounds Sterling respectively; the abbreviations '$m' and '$bn' represent millions and thousands of millions of US Dollars respectively; and the abbreviations 'EURm' and 'EURbn' represent millions and thousands of millions of Euros respectively.

There are a number of key judgement areas, for example impairment calculations, which are based on models and which are subject to ongoing adjustment and modifications. Reported numbers reflect best estimates and judgements at the given point in time.

Relevant terms that are used in this document but are not defined under applicable regulatory guidance or International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) are explained in the results glossary that can be accessed at home.barclays/investor-relations/reports-and-events/latest-financial-results .

The information in this announcement, which was approved by the Board of Directors on 20 October 2021, does not comprise statutory accounts within the meaning of Section 434 of the Companies Act 2006. Statutory accounts for the year ended 31 December 2020, which contained an unmodified audit report under Section 495 of the Companies Act 2006 (which did not make any statements under Section 498 of the Companies Act 2006) have been delivered to the Registrar of Companies in accordance with Section 441 of the Companies Act 2006.

These results will be furnished as a Form 6-K to the US Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) as soon as practicable following their publication. Once furnished with the SEC, a copy of the Form 6-K will be available from the SEC's website at www.sec.gov .

Barclays is a frequent issuer in the debt capital markets and regularly meets with investors via formal road-shows and other ad hoc meetings. Consistent with its usual practice, Barclays expects that from time to time over the coming quarter it will meet with investors globally to discuss these results and other matters relating to the Group.

Non-IFRS performance measures

Barclays' management believes that the non-IFRS performance measures included in this document provide valuable information to the readers of the financial statements as they enable the reader to identify a more consistent basis for comparing the businesses' performance between financial periods and provide more detail concerning the elements of performance which the managers of these businesses are most directly able to influence or are relevant for an assessment of the Group. They also reflect an important aspect of the way in which operating targets are defined and performance is monitored by Barclays' management. However, any non-IFRS performance measures in this document are not a substitute for IFRS measures and readers should consider the IFRS measures as well. Refer to the appendix on pages 38 to 43 for further information and calculations of non-IFRS performance measures included throughout this document, and the most directly comparable IFRS measures.

Forward-looking statements

This document contains certain forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 21E of the US Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and Section 27A of the US Securities Act of 1933, as amended, with respect to the Group. Barclays cautions readers that no forward-looking statement is a guarantee of future performance and that actual results or other financial condition or performance measures could differ materially from those contained in the forward-looking statements. These forward-looking statements can be identified by the fact that they do not relate only to historical or current facts. Forward-looking statements sometimes use words such as 'may', 'will', 'seek', 'continue', 'aim', 'anticipate', 'target', 'projected', 'expect', 'estimate', 'intend', 'plan', 'goal', 'believe', 'achieve' or other words of similar meaning. Forward-looking statements can be made in writing but also may be made verbally by members of the management of the Group (including, without limitation, during management presentations to financial analysts) in connection with this document. Examples of forward-looking statements include, among others, statements or guidance regarding or relating to the Group's future financial position, income growth, assets, impairment charges, provisions, business strategy, capital, leverage and other regulatory ratios, capital distributions (including dividend pay-out ratios and expected payment strategies), projected levels of growth in the banking and financial markets, projected costs or savings, any commitments and targets, estimates of capital expenditures, plans and objectives for future operations, projected employee numbers, IFRS impacts and other statements that are not historical fact. By their nature, forward-looking statements involve risk and uncertainty because they relate to future events and circumstances. The forward-looking statements speak only as at the date on which they are made. Forward-looking statements may be affected by changes in legislation, the development of standards and interpretations under IFRS, including evolving practices with regard to the interpretation and application of accounting and regulatory standards, the outcome of current and future legal proceedings and regulatory investigations, future levels of conduct provisions, the policies and actions of governmental and regulatory authorities, the Group's ability along with governments and other stakeholders to measure, manage and mitigate the impacts of climate change effectively, geopolitical risks and the impact of competition. In addition, factors including (but not limited to) the following may have an effect: capital, leverage and other regulatory rules applicable to past, current and future periods; UK, US, Eurozone and global macroeconomic and business conditions; the effects of any volatility in credit markets; market related risks such as changes in interest rates and foreign exchange rates; effects of changes in valuation of credit market exposures; changes in valuation of issued securities; volatility in capital markets; changes in credit ratings of any entity within the Group or any securities issued by such entities; direct and indirect impacts of the coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic; instability as a result of the UK's exit from the European Union ("EU"), the effects of the EU-UK Trade and Cooperation Agreement and the disruption that may subsequently result in the UK and globally; the risk of cyber-attacks, information or security breaches or technology failures on the Group's reputation, business or operations; and the success of future acquisitions, disposals and other strategic transactions. A number of these influences and factors are beyond the Group's control. As a result, the Group's actual financial position, future results, capital distributions, capital, leverage or other regulatory ratios or other financial and non-financial metrics or performance measures may differ materially from the statements or guidance set forth in the Group's forward-looking statements. Additional risks and factors which may impact the Group's future financial condition and performance are identified in Barclays PLC's filings with the SEC (including, without limitation, Barclays PLC's Annual Report on Form 20-F for the fiscal year ended 31 December 2020 and Interim Results Announcement for the six months ended 30 June 2021 filed on Form 6-K), which are available on the SEC's website at www.sec.gov .

Subject to Barclays' obligations under the applicable laws and regulations of any relevant jurisdiction, (including, without limitation, the UK and the US), in relation to disclosure and ongoing information, we undertake no obligation to update publicly or revise any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise.
