KLP Kommunekreditt ASQ3 2024
Interim Financial Statements 3/2024
Main features by third quarter end:
- Stable P&L development
- Reduced lending volume
- No realized loan losses
Objective
The Company's objective is financing KLP Banken's loans to municipalities, county administrations and enterprises carrying out public sector assignments. Loans to companies must be guaranteed by municipalities, county administrations or the central government under the Norwegian Local Government Act. Guarantees are to be of the ordinary surety type covering both repayments and interest. The lending business is principally funded issuing covered bonds.
KLP Kommunekreditt AS is a wholly owned subsidiary of KLP Banken AS. The KLP Banken AS is owned by Kommunal Landspensjonskasse (KLP).
Income statement
The operating profit before tax for the third quarter was NOK 18.2 (28.8) million. Year-to-date, the profit before tax is NOK 63.5 (64.2) million. The change in profit is mainly due to reduced lending volume.
Net interest income as of third quarter was NOK 82.7 (85.1) million. Compared to the third quarter last year, the company had a lower average lending volume. The reduction in net interest income is partially compensated by a somewhat higher interest rate level.
Net P&L effects on financial instruments as at third quarter were NOK -3.7 (-4.2) million. This mainly includes costs from the repurchase of borrowings and changes in the value of liquid investments. Realized and unrealized value changes in the company’s liquid investments have resulted in an effect of NOK 6.3 (1.7) million so far this year. The restructuring of the borrowing portfolio is done regularly to adjust the average maturity. This can result in both loss and gain. Accounting losses from the repurchase of own debt amount to NOK -9.8 (-5.9) million so far this year.
Operating expenses as of third quarter were NOK -15.6 (-16.7) million. The company has not had any loan losses and has very low loan loss provisions.
Lending/total assets
The company’s loans to customers as of 30 September 2024 were NOK 18.0 (19.4) billion. So far this year, the net loan growth has been NOK -1.0 billion. Borrowers are municipalities, county municipalities, and enterprises with municipal guarantees. Total assets was NOK 22.9 (21.6) billion.
Liquid investments
The collateral associated with the loan financing is subject to strict requirements. In addition to loans to the public sector, it consists of high credit quality securities and deposits in other banks. The securities consist of certificates and bonds with high credit quality, mainly covered bonds. As of 30 September 2024, the company’s interest-bearing securities had a market value of NOK 4.1 (1.5) billion.
Borrowing
The company’s financing consists of covered bonds (OMF) and loans from KLP Banken AS. The company had NOK 0.6 (1.1) billion in intra-group debt at the end of the quarter. Outstanding OMF debt was NOK 21.2 (19.4) billion. NOK 6.3 billion in new covered bonds have been issued so far this year. Net repurchases or sales of own holdings from previous issues amount to NOK -4.5 (-6.4) billion as at third quarter. All OMF issuances have an Aaa rating from Moody’s.
Risk and capital adequacy
KLP Kommunekreditt AS has established a risk management framework to ensure that risks are identified, analyzed, and managed through guidelines, frameworks, routines, and instructions. The company should have a cautious risk profile, and earnings should primarily result from lending and borrowing activities as well as liquidity management. This means that the company should have low market risk. Interest rate risk arising from lending and borrowing activities is reduced using derivatives. The company shall have sufficient long-term financing within established frameworks. The credit risk in the company is very low, and loans are limited to those with municipal risk. The company’s liquidity is placed in banks with high credit quality requirements and in securities in line with board-approved credit lines.
At the end of the third quarter of 2024, core capital i.a.w. the capital adequacy rules were NOK 945.2 (878.9) million. Loans to municipalities and county administrations are risk-weighted 20 per cent in accordance with the authorities' capital adequacy regulations. KLP Kommunekreditt AS has a core capital adequacy and capital adequacy ratio of 21.4 (20.4) percent as at third quarter. The minimum statutory requirement is 17.5 percent capital adequacy ratio. Leverage ratio was 4.1 (4.1) per cent. The requirement here is 3.0 per cent.

Fair value shall be a representative price based on what a corresponding asset or liability would have been traded for on normal market terms and conditions. A financial instrument is considered to be listed in an active market if the listed price is simply and regularly available from a stock market, dealer, broker, industry grouping, price setting service or regulatory authority, and these prices represent actual and regularly occurring transactions at arm’s length. If the market for the security is not active, or the security is not listed on a stock market or similar, valuation techniques are used to set fair value. These are based for example on information on recently completed transactions carried out on business terms and conditions, reference to trading in similar instruments and pricing using externally collected yield curves and yield spread curves. As far as possible the estimates are based on externally observable market data and rarely on company-specific information.
The different financial instruments are thus priced in the following way:
Fixed-income securities - government
Nordic Bond Pricing is used as a source for pricing Norwegian government bonds.
Fixed-income securities - other than government
Norwegian fixed-income securities are generally priced based on rates from Nordic Bond Pricing. Securities not covered by Nordic Bond Pricing are priced theoretically. The theoretical price should be based on the discounted value of the security's future cash flows. Discounting is done using a swap curve adjusted for credit spread and liquidity spread. The credit spread should, to the extent possible, be based on a comparable bond from the same issuer. Liquidity spread is determined at the discretion of the evaluator.
Financial derivatives
These transactions are valued based on the applicable swap curve at the time of valuation. Derivative contracts are to be used only to hedge balance amounts and to enable payments obligations to be met. Derivative contracts may be struck only with counterparties with high credit quality.
Fair value of loans to Norwegian local administrations
Fair value of lending without fixed interest rates is considered virtually the same as book value since the contract terms are continuously changed in step with market interest rates. Fair value of fixed rate loans is calculated by discounting contractual cash flows by the marked rate including a relevant risk margin on the reporting date. This is valued in Level 2 in the valuation hierarchy, cf. Note 6.
Fair value of loans to and receivables from credit institutions
All receivables from credit institutions (bank deposits) are at variable interest rates. Fair value of these is considered virtually the same as book value since the contract terms are continuously changed in step with marked interest rates. This is valued in Level 2 in the valuation hierarchy, cf. Note 6.
Fair value of liabilities to credit institutions
These transactions are valued using a valuation model, including relevant credit spread adjustments obtained from the market. This is valued in Level 2 in the valuation hierarchy, cf. Note 6.
Liabilities created on issuance of covered bonds
Fair value in this category is determined on the basis of internal valuation models based on external observable data. This is valued in Level 2 in the valuation hierarchy, cf. Note 6.

Fair value shall be a representative price based on what a corresponding asset or liability would have been traded for at normal market terms and conditions. Highest quality in regard to fair value is based on listed prices in an active market. A financial instrument is considered as listed in an active market if listed prices are simply and regularly available from a stock market, dealer, broker, industry group, price-setting service or regulatory authority, and these prices represent actual and regularly occurring transactions at arm's length.
Level 1: Instruments at this level obtain fair value from listed prices in an active market for identical assets or liabilities to which the entity has access at the reporting date. Examples of instruments in Level 1 are stock market listed securities.
Level 2: Instruments at this level obtain fair value from observable market data. This includes prices based on identical instruments, but where the instrument does not maintain a high enough trading frequency and is therefore not considered to be traded in an active market, as well as prices based on corresponding assets and price-leading indicators that can be confirmed from market information. Example instruments at Level 2 are fixed-income securities priced on the basis of interest rate paths.
Level 3: Instruments at Level 3 contain non-observable market data or are traded in markets considered to be inactive. The price is based generally on discrete calculations where the actual fair value may deviate if the instrument were to be traded.
Note 5 discloses the fair value of financial assets and financial liabilities that are recognized at amortized cost and according to the rules on hedge accounting. Financial assets measured at amortized cost and hedge accounting comprise lending to and due to credit institutions, Norwegian municipalities and retail customers. The stated fair value of these assets is determined on terms qualifying for Level 2. Financial liabilities recognized at amortized cost and hedge accounting consist of debt securities issued. The stated fair value of these liabilities is determined by methods qualifying for Level 2.
There have been no transfers between Level 1 and Level 2.
