DNB Q3 Shows Positive Momentum in the Norwegian Economy; Cost of Risk Down

DNB ASA (DNB or the Group) reported a net profit attributable to shareholders of NOK 5.3 billion in
Q3 2020, up 11.1% Quarter-on-Quarter (QoQ) but down 8% Year-on-Year (YoY). The improvement on
a quarterly basis was supported by impairment reversals on loans and guarantees, on the back of
more positive economic prospects in the Norwegian economy than previously anticipated. The
Group's Return on Equity (ROE) improved to 9.5% QoQ (vs. 8.7% in Q2 2020), but was below the
10.9% ROE reported in Q3 2019.
