Zurich, April 24, 2013 Credit Suisse Group reports 1Q13 results.

Brady W. Dougan, Chief Executive Officer, said: “With an underlying return on equity of 16% for the first quarter of 2013, we continue to show strong client franchise momentum and generate high returns on a substantially lower risk and cost base. The first quarter of 2013 shows that the strategic measures we have successfully implemented since mid-2011 are effective in bringing results to the bottom line on a consistent basis.”

Commenting on the results of the Private Banking & Wealth Management division, he continued: “Our Private Banking & Wealth Management division generated solid profitability with pre-tax income of CHF 881 million in the first quarter of 2013. Each of the division’s three businesses contributed to our strong net new assets of CHF 12.0 billion in the quarter, reflecting strong growth in Switzerland, Asia Pacific and the Americas, partially offset by continued outflows in Western Europe. The organizational realignment of our integrated Private Banking & Wealth Management division is well on track and we are confident that these efforts will allow us to serve our clients better and more effectively and to further increase our productivity, efficiency and returns in the coming quarters.”

Commenting on the results of the Investment Banking division, he added: “With a return on Basel III allocated capital of 23%, our Investment Banking results for the first quarter of 2013 demonstrate the strength and more balanced performance of our new business model. Our Investment Banking division delivered stable revenues and pre-tax income of CHF 1,300 million on a reduced cost base and lower risk-weighted assets compared to last year’s first quarter. Over the past two years, we have significantly transformed our business portfolio, with the majority of capital and resources allocated to our targeted, high-return businesses.”

Commenting on the strategic development of the Group, he added: “The role of Switzerland as an early mover in defining the new regulatory framework required us to adapt our business model and operations early on. Over the past two years, we have realigned our business model in Investment Banking, significantly reduced costs and risk-weighted assets, adapted the structure of our Private Banking & Wealth Management division and substantially strengthened our capital position. In an industry that still faces substantial restructuring, we have effectively completed the transformation to the new regime and have made material progress in establishing a business model that is stable, high-returning and ready for the new regulatory environment. We now operate under the Basel III standard, have a funding profile that is among the best in the industry with a net stable funding ratio in excess of 100%, and we have a substantially strengthened capital base, with a pro forma Look-through Swiss Core Capital ratio of 9.8%. We are on track to exceed our Look-through Swiss Core Capital ratio target of 10% during the middle of this year and have begun to accrue for cash dividends in respect of our 2013 earnings.”

Private Banking & Wealth Management with 1Q13 net revenues of CHF 3,303 million and pre-tax income of CHF 881 million
·  
Net revenues were 5% lower compared to 1Q12, primarily driven by the partial sale of an investment in Aberdeen Asset Management (Aberdeen) in 1Q12, and lower net interest income, partially offset by slightly higher recurring commissions and fees. Transaction- and performance-based revenues were stable compared to 1Q12.
o  
Wealth Management Clients with 1Q13 pre-tax income of CHF 511 million, with stable net revenues of CHF 2,250 million compared to 1Q12, reflecting higher recurring commissions and fees and other revenues, which offset the adverse impact of the ongoing low interest rate environment.
o  
Corporate & Institutional Clients with 1Q13 pre-tax income of CHF 250 million and net revenues of CHF 520 million, which decreased slightly compared to 1Q12, driven by lower net interest income due to the ongoing low interest rate environment and lower transaction- and performance-based revenues from lower trading and sales income.
o  
Asset Management with 1Q13 pre-tax income of CHF 120 million and net revenues of CHF 533 million, down significantly from 1Q12, reflecting gains in 1Q12 from the partial sale of an investment in Aberdeen.
·  
Net new assets across the Group of CHF 12.0 billion in 1Q13, including strong net new assets of CHF 4.4 billion from the collaboration between our businesses.
o  
Wealth Management Clients contributed solid net new assets of CHF 5.5 billion, with continued inflows from emerging markets and from the ultra-high-net-worth individual (UHNWI) client segment, partially offset by continued outflows in Western Europe.
o  
Corporate & Institutional Clients contributed net new assets of CHF 4.5 billion.
o  
Asset Management contributed net new assets of CHF 6.4 billion, with inflows mainly in index strategies, multi-asset class solutions and credit products, partially offset by outflows of CHF 2.1 billion from businesses the bank decided to exit.
·  
Total operating expenses of CHF 2,394 million in 1Q13, 4% lower compared to 1Q12, driven by lower compensation and benefits, reflecting the non-recurrence of the CHF 120 million of PAF2 award expense booked in 1Q12 as well as lower salary expenses mainly due to lower headcount.

Investment Banking with 1Q13 net revenues of CHF 3,945 million and pre-tax income of CHF 1,300 million
·  
Net revenues were stable compared to 1Q12, reflecting higher revenues in fixed income sales and trading and underwriting and advisory, offset by lower equity sales and trading results.
o  
Fixed income sales and trading revenues of CHF 1,987 million were up 3% compared to 1Q12, reflecting resilient performance in our market-leading franchises, including global credit products, securitized products and emerging markets. In addition, we incurred a gain on businesses that the bank is exiting of CHF 4 million compared to a loss of 261 million in 1Q12.
o  
Equity sales and trading revenues of CHF 1,297 million were down 5% from 1Q12 due to weaker performance in fund-linked products and convertibles, reflecting less favorable trading conditions. Cash equities and prime services franchises generated strong results.
o  
Underwriting and advisory revenues of CHF 763 million increased 3% from 1Q12, driven by higher revenues in both debt and equity underwriting, partially offset by significantly lower mergers and acquisitions (M&A) fees.
·  
Total operating expenses of CHF 2,651 million declined 13% from 1Q12, driven by lower compensation and benefits, primarily due to lower deferred compensation expense as 1Q12 included a CHF 411 million expense related to the PAF2 awards. The decline was partially offset by higher total other operating expenses mainly due to higher litigation provisions.
·  
Return on Basel III allocated capital for Investment Banking was 23% in 1Q13, compared to 13% in 1Q12.
·  
Basel III risk-weighted assets as of the end of 1Q13 were USD 182 billion; Investment Banking is on track to reach year-end 2013 target of USD 175 billion.

Update on cost savings
As of the end of 1Q13, Credit Suisse delivered cost savings of CHF 2.5 billion, excluding certain significant items, compared to an adjusted* annualized 6M11 run-rate. Credit Suisse remains on track to reach its total run-rate reduction target of CHF 4.4 billion by end-2015. Business realignment costs recognized in the Corporate Center were CHF 92 million for the quarter.

Benefits of the integrated bank
In 1Q13, Credit Suisse generated CHF 1,064 million of collaboration revenues from the integrated bank. This corresponds to 15% of the Group’s net revenues in 1Q13.

Capital and funding
As of the end of 1Q13, Credit Suisse’s Look-through Swiss Core Capital ratio on a pro forma basis stood at 9.8%, which assumes completion of the remaining measures announced in July 2012. The 1Q13 reported Look-through Swiss Core Capital ratio stood at 9.6%. Credit Suisse is confident it will exceed the Swiss end-2018 requirement of 10% during the middle of 2013 and accordingly, the calculation of these ratios includes pro-rata accrual for the resumption of an expected cash dividend in respect of 2013. The additional strategic divestments and remaining capital measures that were part of the capital plan are on track to be completed in the near term.

Effective January 1, 2013, the Basel II.5 framework under which Credit Suisse operated was replaced by the Basel III framework, which was implemented in Switzerland along with the Swiss “Too Big to Fail” legislation and regulations thereunder. As of the end of 1Q13, Credit Suisse reported a Basel III common

equity tier 1 (CET 1) ratio of 14.6%, up 0.4 percentage points from 4Q12, reflecting increased CET1 capital and an increase in RWA.

In October 2012, Credit Suisse announced targeted measures to further reduce total balance sheet assets by CHF 130 billion or 13% to below CHF 900 billion by end-2013 on a foreign-exchange neutral basis compared to end-3Q12. As of the end of 1Q13, total balance sheet assets amounted to CHF 947 billion, up CHF 23 billion from 4Q12, driven primarily by a foreign exchange translation impact. As of the end of 1Q13, Credit Suisse’s Swiss leverage ratio stood at 3.8%.

Credit Suisse is continuing to conservatively manage its liquidity, with an estimated long-term net stable funding ratio (NSFR) in excess of 100% under the current FINMA framework and short-term liquidity under Swiss regulations in excess of requirements as of the end of 1Q13.

Private Banking & Wealth Management
Private Banking & Wealth Management, which comprises the global Wealth Management Clients business, the Swiss Corporate & Institutional Clients business and the global Asset Management business, reported pre-tax income of CHF 881 million and net revenues of CHF 3,303 million in 1Q13. Net revenues were 5% lower compared to 1Q12, driven by lower other revenues and lower net interest income, partially offset by slightly higher recurring commissions and fees. Other revenues declined compared to 1Q12, which included a gain of CHF 178 million from the partial sale of an ownership interest in Aberdeen. Compared to 4Q12, net revenues were stable, as higher other revenues and higher recurring commissions and fees were offset by lower transaction- and performance-based revenues and lower net interest income.

Total operating expenses of CHF 2,394 million were 4% lower compared to 1Q12, with lower compensation and benefits, mainly reflecting deferred compensation expense from the CHF 120 million of PAF2 awards granted in 1Q12 and lower headcount. Compared to 4Q12, total operating expenses were slightly higher, as higher compensation and benefits were partially offset by lower general and administrative expenses.

The Wealth Management Clients business in 1Q13 reported pre-tax income of CHF 511 million with net revenues of CHF 2,250 million, which were stable compared to 1Q12. Lower net interest income was offset by slightly higher recurring commissions and fees, including higher investment account and services fees, slightly higher banking services fees and lower investment product management fees. Compared to

4Q12, net revenues rose slightly, driven by higher recurring commissions and fees, including seasonally higher banking services fees, higher discretionary mandate management fees, and higher other revenues and transaction- and performance-based revenues, partially offset by lower net interest income. In 1Q13, the gross margin was 110 basis points, 8 basis points lower than in 1Q12, reflecting a continued adverse interest rate environment, a conservative asset mix and the impact of growth in the UHNWI client segment and the emerging markets. Compared to 4Q12, the gross margin was stable.

The Corporate & Institutional Clients business, which provides comprehensive coverage for all the financial services needs of corporate and institutional clients in Switzerland and for banks worldwide, reported pre-tax income of CHF 250 million in 1Q13, with net revenues of CHF 520 million, 3% lower than in 1Q12 and 5% lower than in 4Q12. Total operating expenses in 1Q13 were 4% lower compared to 1Q12 and 6% lower than in 4Q12. Provision for credit losses was CHF 9 million in 1Q13 on a net loan portfolio of CHF 62.2 billion, reflecting a well-diversified credit portfolio and strong risk management.

The Asset Management business reported pre-tax income of CHF 120 million with net revenues of
CHF 533 million in 1Q13, down 24% from1Q12, driven by a gain of CHF 178 million in 1Q12 from the partial sale of an ownership interest in Aberdeen, partially offset by higher performance fees and placement fees in 1Q13. Net revenues were 8% lower than in 4Q12, driven by lower fee-based revenues, reflecting decreases in performance fees and carried interest and placement fees, which more than offset higher investment-related gains in 1Q13.

Investment Banking
Investment Banking reported net revenues of CHF 3,945 million and pre-tax income of CHF 1,300 million in 1Q13. Investment Banking delivered strong results in 1Q13, reflecting stable revenues, broadly sustained market share, a reduced cost base and lower capital usage compared to 1Q12. Net revenues were stable compared to 1Q12, as higher fixed income sales and trading and underwriting and advisory results were offset by lower equity sales and trading revenues. Compared to 4Q12, net revenues were substantially higher, driven by seasonally stronger first quarter results in fixed income sales and trading and equity sales and trading.

Fixed income sales and trading revenues of CHF 1,987 million were slightly higher compared to 1Q12, reflecting the resilient performance of the bank’s market-leading franchises in fixed income, including global credit products, securitized products and emerging markets. In addition, a gain of CHF 4 million was incurred on businesses that the bank is exiting, compared to losses of CHF 261 million in 1Q12. Revenues were substantially higher relative to 4Q12, driven by a seasonally stronger first quarter, reflecting improved results across most of our fixed income businesses.

Equity sales and trading revenues of CHF 1,297 million were 5% lower relative to 1Q12, driven by weaker performance in fund-linked products and convertibles, reflecting less favorable trading conditions. The cash equities and prime services franchises generated strong results in 1Q13. Revenues were substantially higher compared to 4Q12, as improved trading volumes and client activity led to higher revenues across most of our equities businesses.

Underwriting and advisory revenues of CHF 763 million were 3% higher compared to 1Q12, as higher debt and equity underwriting revenues were partially offset by significantly lower M&A fees. Relative to 4Q12, revenues declined 22% across advisory and debt and equity underwriting following strong activity in 4Q12.

Compensation and benefits decreased by CHF 528 million, or 26%, compared to 1Q12, primarily due to lower deferred compensation expense, as 1Q12 included CHF 411 million of expenses related to PAF2 awards. Compensation and benefits increased by CHF 313 million, or 27%, from 4Q12, mainly driven by higher discretionary performance-related compensation expense, reflecting higher results. Total other operating expenses increased 12% compared to 1Q12, mainly due to higher litigation provisions. Compared to 4Q12, total other operating expenses decreased 2%, primarily driven by lower professional fees, including legal fees, mostly offset by higher litigation provisions.

Corporate Center
The Corporate Center recorded a loss before taxes of CHF 359 million in 1Q13, including fair value charges on own debt of CHF 37 million, debit valuation adjustment losses on certain structured note liabilities of CHF 41 million and fair value charges on stand-alone derivatives of CHF 2 million, resulting in overall losses on such items of CHF 80 million in the quarter. This compares to a loss before taxes of
CHF 1,818 million in 1Q12 and a loss before taxes of CHF 840 million in 4Q12. The loss before taxes in the Corporate Center in 1Q13, excluding the above items, losses on business sales of CHF 80 million and business realignment costs of CHF 92 million, was CHF 107 million.

Capital and liquidity disclosures
As of January 1, 2013, Basel III was implemented in Switzerland along with the Swiss “Too Big to Fail” legislation and regulations thereunder. Our related disclosures are in accordance with our current interpretation of such requirements, including relevant assumptions. We have calculated our Basel III net stable funding ratio (NSFR) based on the current FINMA framework. Changes in the interpretation of these requirements in Switzerland or in any of our assumptions or estimates could result in different numbers from those shown herein. In addition, we have calculated our 1Q13 pro forma Look-through Swiss Core Capital assuming the successful completion of the remaining CHF 0.6 billion of capital measures we announced in July 2012. The calculation of Investment Banking’s return on Basel III allocated capital assumes a 25% tax rate and capital allocated at 10% of Basel III risk-weighted assets.

Reconciliation to underlying results – Core Results
Underlying results are non-GAAP financial measures that exclude valuation impacts from movements in own credit spreads and certain other items included in our reported Core Results. Management believes that underlying results provide a useful presentation of our operating results for purposes of assessing our Group and divisional performance over time, on a basis that excludes items that management does not consider representative of our underlying performance. Provided below is a reconciliation of our underlying Core results to the most directly comparable US GAAP measures.
> Refer to “Core Results”, “Private Banking & Wealth Management” and “ Investment Banking” in the 1Q13 Financial Release and prior Financial Reports for the periods indicated for further information.

Disclaimer Cautionary statement regarding forward-looking statements This presentation contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Forward-looking statements involve inherent risks and uncertainties, and we might not be able to achieve the predictions, forecasts, projections and other outcomes we describe or imply in forward-looking statements. A number of important factors could cause results to differ materially from the plans, objectives, expectations, estimates and intentions we express in these forward-looking statements, including those we identify in "Risk Factors" in our Annual Report on Form 20-F for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2012 and in "Cautionary statement regarding forward-looking information" in our first quarter report 2013 filed with the US Securities and Exchange Commission and in other public filings and press releases. We do not intend to update these forward-looking statements except as may be required by applicable laws. Statement regarding non-GAAP financial measures This presentation also contains non-GAAP financial measures, including underlying results. Information needed to reconcile such non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable measures under US GAAP can be found in this presentation and in our first quarter report 2013. Statement regarding Basel 3 disclosures As of January 1, 2013, Basel 3 was implemented in Switzerland along with the Swiss “Too Big to Fail” legislation and regulations thereunder. Our related disclosures are in accordance with our current interpretation of such requirements, including relevant assumptions. In addition, we have calculated our Basel 3 net stable funding ratio (NSFR) based on the current FINMA framework. Changes in the interpretation of these requirements in Switzerland or in any of our assumptions and/or estimates could result in different numbers from those shown in this presentation. Capital and ratio numbers for periods prior to 2013 are based on estimates, which are calculated as if the Basel 3 framework had been in place in Switzerland during such periods.

Libor matter April 24, 2013 Regulatory authorities in a number of jurisdictions have for an extended period of time been investigating the setting of LIBOR and other reference rates. Credit Suisse, which is a member of only three rate-setting LIBOR panels (US Dollar LIBOR, Swiss Franc LIBOR and Euro LIBOR), is cooperating fully with these investigations. Credit Suisse has done a significant amount of work over the last two years to respond to regulatory inquiries. Based on our work to date, we do not currently believe that Credit Suisse is likely to have material issues in relation to LIBOR and we have shared these findings with the relevant regulators; of course, our review in response to ongoing regulatory inquiries is continuing. In addition Credit Suisse has been named in various civil lawsuits filed in the United States relating to LIBOR. These lawsuits are factually and legally meritless with respect to Credit Suisse and we will vigorously defend ourselves against them. *
 
 
 

 
US tax matter April 24, 2013 The matter is a complex situation that Credit Suisse takes very seriously, and we are cooperating with the US and Swiss authorities. At this point we cannot give you any information on timing as the matter is complex and obviously directly dependent on the discussions between the US and the Swiss governments. The cross-border business with US clients was comparatively small in relation to our overall wealth management business as we significantly exited the US offshore business beginning back in 2008. We continue to build our US onshore franchise and we have made significant progress over the last years as the US remains a significant wealth management market that we want to be present in. We do not see a direct impact from this matter on our ability to generate asset inflows; however, we will incur legal and other expenses related to resolving this matter We reserved USD 325 mn for this matter in 3Q11. *
