Credit Agricole Group 2016 year first quarter results

12 of May 2016, Crédit Agricole Group reported net income Group share of €818 million for the first quarter of 2016. Its underlying* net income Group share was €1.2 billion, stable compared with the first quarter of 2015. Crédit Agricole S.A. reported net income Group share of €227 million and €394 million on an underlying basis, down 9.3% compared with the first quarter of 2015. The business lines delivered strong commercial performance in a highly challenging environment. As expected, the first half of 2016 was affected by the non-recurring negative impact of the plan to simplify the Group's capital structure (Eureka plan). The positive impact of this plan will begin to flow through in the third quarter, once the deconsolidation of the Regional Banks is complete. In terms of solvency, the Basel 3 fully-loaded Common Equity Tier 1 ratio was 13.9% for the Group and 10.8% for Crédit Agricole S.A., making the Group one of the best capitalised banks in Europe. Meanwhile, the various projects launched last March as part of the "Strategic Ambition 2020" Medium-Term Plan are progressing on schedule, with consolidation of our leadership positions, increased revenue synergies and cost savings.
