Net operating income for the full year 2005 SBAB's net operating income for 2005 amounted to SEK 666 million (SEK 678 million). The change in income is mainly explained by increased expenses. Net interest income totalled SEK 1,296 million, compared with SEK 1,214 million in 2004. This increase is explained by a very good development of retail market lending although falling interest rates have had a negative impact on yield. New lending to the retail market was a record-breaking 57 % higher than last year. Expenses totalled SEK 596 million (SEK 505 million). - The high level of new sales has led to an increase in staff costs and volume-related costs. Furthermore, SBAB has pursued a number of extensive development projects due to adaptation to various rule changes. In addition, restructuring expenses for a reorganisation have been charged to expenses for 2005, says Eva Cederbalk, SBAB's CEO.

When SBAB as the first mortgage loan company in Sweden dropped the top loan in April 2005, this contributed to a larger customer flow which further increased the growth of new lending to retail customers. The portfolio now totals SEK 93,528 million (SEK 60,942 million) excluding securitisations. New lending in the corporate market was SEK 4,976 million (SEK 4,481 million). The corporate market portfolio excluding securitisations amounted to SEK 62,492 million (SEK 69,965 million). Funding Long-term funding during the year amounted to SEK 68,866 million (SEK 43,321 million) of which SEK 47,696 million (SEK 21,698 million) was raised in the international market and SEK 21,170 million (SEK 21,623 million) in the domestic bond market. The original short-term loan debt, defined as short-term on the issue date, totalled SEK 45,075 million (SEK 34,717 million). Loan losses and Doubtful loan receivables Loan losses continued to be low and amounted net to a positive SEK 36 million (SEK 7 million). The doubtful loan receivables have decreased during the year from SEK 214 million to SEK 144 million. The provision ratio regarding specific provisions for individually accessed loan receivables amounted to 66%. At the end of 2005, total provisions amounted to SEK 228 million, of which collective provision for individually assessed loan receivables amounted to SEK 113 million. Capital adequacy At the end of 2005, the capital adequacy ratio was 8.9% (10.0%). The primary capital ratio was 6.9% (8.4%). SBAB's capital base amounted to SEK 7,376 million (SEK 6,386 million). The capital adequacy ratio was 9.4% (10.6%), the primary capital ratio 7.3% (8.8%) and the capital base SEK 7,040 million (SEK 6,120 million) for the parent company. The change in the capital adequacy ratio was mainly due to increased lending in the retail market and to the repurchase of securitised loans.
