Ad hoc announcement pursuant to Article 53 LR.
UBS (NYSE:UBS) (SWX:UBSN) has published its Annual Report, presenting fully audited results for the year ending 31 December 2023. It provides comprehensive and detailed information on the firm, the acquisition of Credit Suisse, our strategy, business, governance and compensation, financial performance and risk, treasury and capital management, as well as on the regulatory and operating environment in 2023.
Following the publication of the unaudited fourth quarter 2023 financial report on 7 February 2024, we have refined our acquisition-date fair value estimates in accordance with the 12-month measurement period requirements provided by IFRS 3. This has resulted in an adjustment of USD 1.2 billion, decreasing the negative goodwill to USD 27.7 billion. Our net profit attributable to shareholders therefore was USD 27.8 billion for 2023, down from USD 29 billion. Diluted earnings per share decreased by USD 0.36 to USD 8.45. In addition, the CET1 capital ratio decreased to 14.4% from 14.5%.
The Sustainability Report provides details on UBS’s sustainability and impact strategy, including how the firm meets clients’ sustainable finance and investing needs. It also sets out our ambition to achieve net-zero greenhouse gas emissions across our scope 1 and 2, and specified scope 3 activities by 2050. Further, it provides details on our revised decarbonization targets, as well as our updated sustainability and climate risk policy framework, following the acquisition of Credit Suisse.
The reports, along with associated disclosures, are available at www.ubs.com/annualreporting. They are filed with the US Securities and Exchange Commission (Form 20-F for the Annual Report and Form 6-K for the Sustainability Report).
