Update on impact of large notable items on 2H20 results

News Release
For Release: 27 October 2020
Update on impact of large notable items on 2H20 results
ANZ today announced its second half 2020 Cash Profit will be impacted by an after tax
charge of $528m (approximately a 5 basis points impact on common equity tier one capital)
as a result of large notable items, including remediation costs and accelerated software
amortisation. The charge impacts Statutory Profit by a similar amount.
Remediation charges recognised in the second half of 2020 will be $188m (after tax), largely
related to an acceleration of remediation programs and product reviews across the Group.
Changes to the application of ANZ’s software amortisation policy resulted in a $138 million
(after tax) charge being recognised in the second half of 2020. These changes were made to
reflect the increasingly shorter useful life of various types of software assets caused by
rapidly changing technology and business requirements.
The remaining charges of $202m (after tax) include the write-down of goodwill in ANZ’s
Pacific business, the impact of AASB 9 accounting changes on ANZ’s investment in PT Panin
and restructuring charges.
The following tables are provided to illustrate the impacts of the above items to cash
continuing profit after tax (versus prior comparable periods):
