Banco Bilbao Vizcaya Argentaria, S.A. (BBVA), in compliance with the Securities Market legislation, hereby communicates the following:

PRICE SENSITIVE INFORMATION

As a result of the Supervisory Review and Evaluation Process (SREP) carried out by the European Central Bank (ECB), BBVA has received a communication from the ECB that includes the requirement for BBVA to maintain, from January 1, 2020 on a consolidated basis, a CET1 capital ratio of 9.27% and a total capital ratio of 12.77%.

This total capital requirement at consolidated level includes: i) a Pillar 1 requirement of 8% that should be fulfilled by a minimum of 4.5% of CET1; ii) a Pillar 2 requirement of 1.5% of CET1 that remains at the same level as the one included in the previous SREP decision; iii) a Capital Conservation buffer of 2.5% of CET1; iv) the Other Systemic Important Institution buffer (OSII) of 0.75% of CET1; and v) the Countercyclical Capital buffer 0.02% of CET1.

Additionally, the ECB communication includes the requirement for BBVA to maintain, from January 1, 2020 on an individual basis, a CET1 capital ratio of 8.53% and a total capital ratio of 12.03%([1]) .

On a consolidated and individual basis, the ECB Pillar 2 requirement remains at the same level as the one established in the last SREP decision, being the sole difference the evolution of the Countercyclical Capital buffer of 0.01% approximately.

As of September 30, 2019, BBVA holds, on a consolidated and phased-in basis, a CET1 capital ratio of 11.80% and a total capital ratio of 16.22%. On a fully loaded basis, CET1 capital ratio stands at 11.56% and total capital ratio at 15.71%.

As of September 30, 2019, BBVA holds, on an individual and phase-in basis, a CET1 capital ratio of 15.96% and a total capital ratio of 21.20%. On a fully loaded basis, CET1 ratio capital stands at 15.69% and total capital at 20.75%.

As in the latest SREP exercise, BBVA consolidated and individual current capital ratios stand above applicable regulatory requirements.
