BBVA BANCO FRANCES (NYSE; BFR.N; BCBA: FRA.BA; LATIBEX: BFR.LA) REPORTS CONSOLIDATED SECOND QUARTER EARNINGS FOR FISCAL YEAR 2008
Second Quarter Executive Summary
| In the second quarter of 2008, BBVA Banco Francés registered a gain of Ps. 113.9 million, representing an increase of 53.3% and 37.4% with respect to last quarter and the same quarter of 2007. The increase in the Net Income is explained by higher incomes from interests and services compensated with higher administration expenses and provisions made in order to adjust public sector portfolio value, allowing an improvement in the income generation. Likewise, this second quarter earnings were not impacted by the legal injunctions amortization, while this impact finalized in the first quarter of this year. |
| Private sector loans attenuate its growth in the second quarter of this year as a result of the decrease in corporate and middle market financings. Such portfolios dropped around 12% during the quarter. However, the retail segment growth partially offset such decrease with an increase of 11% approximately in the quarter. The increase was bolstered by car and personal loans. |
| Total public sector exposure was reduced 5.0% during this second quarter, as a result of principal amortization derived from maturities and sells of bills and notes issued by the Central Bank. The fall reached 21.7% in the last 12 months. |
| BBVA Banco Francés maintained its leadership in the financial system in terms of the risk assumed, showing solid ratios of asset quality; the non-performing ratio with respect to all types of financing (i.e., loans, corporate senior debt purchased and guarantees granted by the Bank) reached 0.8%, with coverage of non-performing loans with provisions of 262.3% as of June 30, 2008. |
| In terms of deposits, the financial system showed a transitory reduction in total deposits during the second quarter of the year. In the BBVA Banco Francés case, total deposits dropped 3.8%, while balances in current accounts and time deposits were the ones with higher falls, 4.7% and 3.9% in the quarter. In spite of this fall in deposits, the Bank continued showing a solid level of liquidity. The liquid assets Cash and due from banks plus Central Bank bills and notes- represent 31.7% of total deposits as of June 30, 2008. Its important to mention that during June the deposits recovered its positive trend. |
| Total shareholders equity as of June 30, 2008 reached Ps. 2.1 billion with a Ps. 748.5 million excess capital over minimum requirements in accordance to Central Bank regulations. Such excess provides enough resources to maintain the private sector loan portfolio growth. |

Second quarter of fiscal year 2008
The EMI (Industrial Monthly Estimator) grew by 5.7% yoy in 2008 second quarter, decelerating a point with respect to the previous quarter. The EMAE (Monthly Estimator of Economic Activity) grew 8.4% yoy accumulated up to May, maintaining the first quarter expansion rate.
Towards the end of April, the decrease in the exports liquidation, together with a greater portfolio dollarization, produced a significant rise in the foreign exchange rate at Ps.3.18/USD. The BCRA took part actively selling reserves to avoid a greater depreciation of the Argentine Peso. The intervention continued with a smaller rate in the rest of the quarter and the foreign exchange rate closed at Ps.3.02/USD by the end of June. The BCRA reserves were reduced by USD 2.9 billion in the quarter.
Tax receipts in the quarter increased a 35.7% with respect to equal quarter of the previous year. The VAT, the exports retentions and the Social Security taxes grew over this average. The National Public Sector primary surplus increased 23.6% with respect to the same quarter of 2007. The primary fiscal expenditures continued its increasing trend essentially by the 74.1% rise in the transfers to the private sector.
The deposits fell 1.2% (average June against March 2008) essentially because additional liquidity was not generated via the external sector. As a result of this decrease, the Badlar rate of private banks that was finalized in March with an 8.3% level arrived at levels of 18% during June to finalize that month at 16.3%. As a consequence, during June, a deceleration took place in private sector loans.
The Business
BBVA Banco Francés continues focused in expanding credit activity in the private sector, mainly in the retail segment and small and medium companies segment. During the first semester of the year, the private sector financings growth allowed it to improve the income generation. The private sector incomes are more and more important while the public sector income diminished. Also, an active management of the risk assumed causes the Bank to have the best asset quality of the financial system.
On the other hand, the sustained growth in commercial activity was reflected in the continued increase of income from services. The consolidation in our transactional business, including means of payment management (especially electronic means), insurances, openings of new accounts, and credit and debit cards transactions, had an important positive impact on operating results.
It is important to emphasize that the Bank has an excess of capital of the minimum required by the BCRA that exceeds Ps. 700 million which provides the Bank with enough resources to continue its growth. Additionally the BBVA Banco Francés has an excellent position of liquidity that allowed it to bear the transitory reduction of deposits experienced in the second quarter of 2008.

BBVA Banco Francés earnings totalized Ps. 113.9 million by the end of the second quarter of 2008; that represents a growth of 53.3% and 37.4% as compared to the quarters ended on March 31, 2008 and June 30, 2007, respectively, when gains were Ps. 74.3 million and Ps. 82.9 million.
The increase in the Net Income is mainly explained by an increase in Net Financial Income coming from the private sector, a higher Net Income from Services and a lower exposure in Other Income Expenses, given that during the first quarter of 2008 the Bank recorded the loss related with the last amortization of the legal injunctions. These variations were partially offset by an increase in Administrative Expenses and an adjustment in the value of the public sector portfolio of Ps. 140.3 million, which exceeds the Central Banks requirements by Ps. 65.5 million.
Lower Net Financial Income is explained mainly by the adjustment in the value of the public sector portfolio, which was partially offset by the contribution of the private business.
Net Income from Services increase by 5.7% and 26.7% as compared with quarters ended on March 31, 2008 and June 30, 2007, respectively. Growth is explained by the increases in fees coming from insurance, credit cards and current and saving accounts.
Administrative Expenses, during the second quarter of 2008, grew 5.9 % as compared to the previous quarter and 33.2% as compared to the same quarter of the prior year, due to higher activity levels and an increase in wages and prices.
Operating income showed a decrease as compared with the previous quarter and with the same quarter a year ago. Although, not considering the negative impact of the excess in the adjustment of the value of public portfolio of PS. 65.5 million, operating income should reached Ps. 147.4 million, 0.9% higher than the amount registered in the first quarter of 2008 and a 12.1% higher than the operating income of the same quarter of the previous year.

Net Financial Income
Net Income totalized Ps. 203.6 million in the second quarter of 2008, showing a decrease not only as compared to the previous quarter but also to the same quarter of 2007 of 21.6% and 4.4%, respectively.
Reduction against prior quarter is mainly explained by the adjustment in the value of the public sector portfolio; which represented a loss of Ps. 140.3 million in this quarter, it is important to highlight that such loss exceeds the BCRA requirements and was partially offset by an expansion in the private business contribution in the Net Margin due to higher interest rates in the asset side and an increase in volumes as compared with previous quarters.

Income from Securities and Short-Term Investments
In the second quarter of the year, the Income from Securities and Short-Term Investments were affected by the valuation adjustment in public assets (Bogar 2020) by Ps. 140.3 million that exceeds the regulator requirements (Com A 3911) in Ps. 65.5 million.
On the other hand, the results of the available for the sale portfolio grew as a result of a greater holdings volume whereas on the contrary, the instruments issued by the Central bank showed smaller results due to a smaller volume.
The variations in the CER adjustment are due to a higher index variation since significant changes in the CER adjusted holdings were not registered in the last quarter.

Net income from services
During the second quarter of 2008, BBVA Banco Francés continued with the positive trend in incomes coming from the transactional business, which totalized of Ps. 173.4 million, this is an expansion of 5.6% and 26.9% as compared with the quarters ended on March 31, 2008 and June 30, 2007 respectively.
The enlargement in the last three months is explained mainly by an increase in fees related with insurance, credit cards and current and saving accounts, in contrast fees coming from foreign trade operations and capital markets activities showed a decline during the same period.
The annual growth is explained by the expansion in the retail segment, mainly by an increase in fees associated with current and saving accounts, credit cards and insurance together with those coming from the foreign trade operations in the middle market segment and capital markets and securities activities.

Income related to foreign currency exchange transactions is not included in this table, since it is accounted for in net financial income as an income from foreign currency trading. During this quarter, such income amounted to Ps. 52.9 million, 85.5% and 121.5% higher than the previous quarter and the same period of prior year; respectively, due to an increase of the demand of foreign currency, mainly a retail savers behavior.
Administrative Expenses
In the last three months, administrative expenses grew by 5.9% as compared with the prior quarter and 33.3% as compared with the same quarter of 2007.
- 5 -
The increase registered in the quarter is explained mainly by higher personnel expenses as a result of the agreement with the labor unions, which took place in March 2008, partially offset by a lower charge registered in the bonus provisions, jointly with an increase in organization expenses and honoraries as a consequence of the higher activity level and a raise in prices.
On the other hand, the raise in expenses against last years levels was of 33.3%, and was mainly driven by higher activity in the core business and more investment; which cause an increase in personnel and organization expenses jointly with higher advertising and promotions expenditures. These increases took place last year with higher salaries reached through the agreement with the labor union during April 2007 and March 2008, jointly with a larger number of employees, related to the advertising and promotions expenditures, which reflected a higher presence of the Bank in the media and higher costs.
By the end of June 30, 2008, the Bank had 4,288 employees (including the Banks subsidiaries, except for the Consolidar Group). The branch office network totaled 266 offices, including 235 consumer branch offices, 27 branch offices specialized in the middle-market segment, 12 in-company branches, 4 branch offices for large corporate and institutional clients and 3 sale points. During 2008, the Bank opened three new retail branch offices within the country, 1 in-company branch and 1 sale point; with the purpose of reinforcing its presence in the cities with high economic growth.

Other Income/Expenses
By the end of June 2008, total Other income/Expenses recorded a loss of Ps. 3.2 million, 97.1 % lower as compared with the prior quarter, it is important to mention that during the first quarter, the Bank had completed the amortization of the asset related with legal injunctions; such amortization is booked in accordance with Central Banks regulation (which does not imply that the Bank waives its right to demand a future compensation).
BBVA Banco Francés determines the charge for income tax by applying the current tax rate of 35% to taxable income estimated for each period considering the effect of temporary differences between book and taxable income. The Bank has considered as temporary differences those that have a definitive reversal date in subsequent fiscal years. At the same time, as of June 30, 2008 and June 30, 2007 the Bank has concluded that it must not pay income tax due to the existence of a net operating loss from previous years, for income tax purposes.
As of June 30, 2008 and on the close of the prior fiscal year, the Bank maintains recorded in its books under Other Receivables (in the Tax Advance account), a taxable deferred asset amounting to Ps. 143.2 million and Ps. 108.7 million, respectively.
Income from equity investments
Income from Equity Investments sets forth net income from related companies, which are not consolidated, mainly the Consolidar Group. Second quarter of 2008 showed once more a gain; which totalized Ps 38.5 million. Its stake in the Consolidar Group recorded profits by Ps. 3.8 million; the Bank also registered a gain coming from the VISA Inc initial public offering.
- 6 -
Public Sector Exposure
During the second quarter of 2008, the Public Sector Exposure continued descending mainly by maturities and sales of Bills and Notes from the Central Bank.
The Public Sector National Government debt did not show greater changes in the last quarter. Nevertheless, in the last twelve months, it diminished due to amortizations of capital by maturities in guaranteed loans and the constitution of provisions. These variations were partially offset by the increase of the holdings of guaranteed loans and Bogar 2020 due to their update by CER index.
It is important to remember that, in the third quarter of last year, part of our public assets portfolio, mainly Bills and Notes issued by the BCRA, had been classified in the Available for Sale category. During this quarter, the valuation difference of those assets registered an increase of Ps. 2.5 million due to the incorporation of new holdings to this category.
The Public Sector National Government exposure, as of June 30, 2008, represents 13.8% of total assets of the Bank whereas a year back this relation was 16.5%. This reduction is in line with the Banks strategy to encourage private sector activity, reducing exposure to the public sector National Treasury.

Government and Private Securities
The fall in the Government and Private Securities portfolio is explained, mainly, by the decline of the Bills and Notes issued by the Central Bank position and the growth of the devaluation risk allowances.
The growth of the Available for the Sale portfolio, during the second quarter of 2008, was a consequence of the incorporation of new holdings partially offset by the diminution of the trading portfolio.

In spite of the fact that during the second quarter of 2008 pace of growing of private business decreased, the Bank continued focusing on the retail segment, which maintained the expansion, growing at Ps. 395.6 million during the quarter. Similarly, personal loans grew Ps. 191.2 million, car loans, mortgages and credit cards grew Ps. 73.5 million, Ps. 66.4 million and Ps. 64.4 million. On the other hand it is important to note that in the middle markets segment, discounted notes and other loans declined by 17.2% and 8.8% respectively, while in the corporate segment the decrease in advances and corporate loans was of 13.5%.
- 8 -
In comparison with the quarter ended on June 30, 2007, the private sector loan portfolio registered an important expansion, which was driven by both, the retail and the middle market segments, mainly through personal loans, which grew Ps. 751.9 million, whereas the other products, such as car loans, mortgages and credit cards increased by approximately Ps. 300 million each one. On the other hand, discounted notes and other loans, mainly those related with exports operations were the most important products in the middle market segment growing Ps. 307.5 million and Ps. 163.8 million respectively during the last twelve months.
The relation between private loans and securities over total private and public sector loans and securities, excluding the Central Banks portfolio, reached 78.5% as of June 30, 2008.

Deposits
The environment of uncertainty that took place during the second quarter caused a reduction of deposits in the total financial system; in BBVA Banco Francés the variation represented a decline of 3.8% excluding rescheduled deposits fall in current accounts was 3.3%, while the decrease in time deposits was 3.9%.
The decrease during the second quarter was driven by a fall in retail deposits (those under Ps. 1 million). Whereas in time deposits, the reduction jointly with the drop in CER adjusted time deposits was partially offset by the increase in corporate and institutional time deposits.
Deposits performance during the last twelve months showed an expansion of Ps. 1,304 million, 9.9%. In the last 12 months, current and saving accounts grew by 16.4% and 17.4% respectively; raising its participation in the Banks funding mix by 3%, allowing the Bank to maintain an average funding cost in similar levels than the previous quarter.
CER adjusted deposits decreased by 61.3% during the quarter and by 91.8% compared to last years second quarter. This trend meant for the Bank a higher CER index adjusted position for assets and liabilities.
There was also an important growth in foreign currency-denominated deposits during the last twelve months, which grew by 27.2% (Ps. 527 million) against the second quarter of 2007. As of June 30, 2008, foreign currency-denominated deposits amounted to Ps. 2,467 million (equivalent to USD 815.7 million), representing 16.9% of total deposits, higher than the 14.5% share posted a year ago.

Other Funding Sources
As of June 30, 2008 other funding sources fall 41.9% as compared with the prior quarter, however as compared with the same quarter one year ago it registered a growth of 9.3%

- 10 -
By the end of the June 2008 quarter, approximately 81% of other funding sources were foreign currency denominated funds.

Capitalization
Total shareholders equity as of June 30, 2008 reached Ps. 2.1 billion with a Ps. 748.5 million excess capital over minimum requirements in accordance to Central Bank regulations. Such excess provides enough resources to maintain the private sector loan portfolio growth.
The decrease registered in the excess capital over the minimum required during the last twelve months is mainly explained by higher demand caused by the increase in the private sector financings and a raise in the alpha coefficient.
The Unrealized Valuation Difference totaled a loss of Ps. 35.0 million by the end of the second quarter. Such difference is related to a higher stock of bills and notes issued by the Central Bank which are booked as Available for sale.
Finally, the Bank recorded an asset corresponding to the Minimum Presumed Income Tax, which totaled Ps. 205.1 million as of June 30, 2008.
