looking statement is a guarantee of future performance and that actual results or other financial condition or performance measures could differ
materially from those contained in the forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements can be identified by the fact that they do not relate
only to historical or current facts. Forward-looking statements sometimes use words such as ‘may’, ‘will’, ‘seek’, ‘continue’, ‘aim’, ‘anticipate’, ‘target’,
‘projected’, ‘expect’, ‘estimate’, ‘intend’, ‘plan’, ‘goal’, ‘believe’, ‘achieve’ or other words of similar meaning. Forward-looking statements can be made

financial markets, industry trends, any commitments and targets (including environmental, social and governance (ESG) commitments and targets),
business strategy, plans and objectives for future operations and other statements that are not historical or current facts. By their nature, forward-
looking statements involve risk and uncertainty because they relate to future events and circumstances. Forward-looking statements speak only as at
the date on which they are made. Forward-looking statements may be affected by a number of factors, including, without limitation: changes in
legislation, regulation and the interpretation thereof, changes in IFRS and other accounting standards, including practices with regard to the
interpretation and application thereof and emerging and developing ESG reporting standards; the outcome of current and future legal proceedings
and regulatory investigations; the policies and actions of governmental and regulatory authorities; the Group’s ability along with governments and
other stakeholders to measure, manage and mitigate the impacts of climate change effectively; environmental, social and geopolitical risks and
incidents and similar events beyond the Group’s control; the impact of competition; capital, leverage and other regulatory rules applicable to past,
current and future periods; UK, US, Eurozone and global macroeconomic and business conditions, including inflation; volatility in credit and capital
markets; market related risks such as changes in interest rates and foreign exchange rates; higher or lower asset valuations; changes in credit ratings
of any entity within the Group or any securities issued by it; changes in counterparty risk; changes in consumer behaviour; the direct and indirect
consequences of the Russia-Ukraine war on European and global macroeconomic conditions, political stability and financial markets; direct and
indirect impacts of the coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic; instability as a result of the UK’s exit from the European Union (EU), the effects of the EU-
UK Trade and Cooperation Agreement and any disruption that may subsequently result in the UK and globally; the risk of cyber-attacks, information
or security breaches or technology failures on the Group’s reputation, business or operations; the Group’s ability to access funding; and the success of
acquisitions, disposals and other strategic transactions. A number of these factors are beyond the Group’s control. As a result, the Group’s actual
financial position, results, financial and non-financial metrics or performance measures or its ability to meet commitments and targets may differ
materially from the statements or guidance set forth in the Group’s forward-looking statements. Additional risks and factors which may impact the
Group’s future financial condition and performance are identified in Barclays PLC’s filings with the SEC (including, without limitation, Barclays PLC’s
Annual Report on Form 20-F for the financial year ended 31 December 2022), which are available on the SEC’s website at www.sec.gov.
Subject to Barclays PLC’s obligations under the applicable laws and regulations of any relevant jurisdiction (including, without limitation, the UK and

Performance Highlights
In 2022 Barclays delivered a profit before tax of £7.0bn and return on tangible equity (RoTE) of
10.4%, with total capital distributions equivalent to c.13.4p per share
C. S. Venkatakrishnan, Group Chief Executive, commented
“Barclays performed strongly in 2022. Each business delivered income growth, with Group income up 14%. We achieved
our RoTE target of over 10%, maintained a strong Common Equity Tier 1 (CET1) capital ratio of 13.9%, and returned capital
to shareholders. We are cautious about global economic conditions, but continue to see growth opportunities across our
businesses through 2023.”
1 Includes total dividend for 2022 of 7.25p per share and total share buybacks announced in relation to 2022 of £1.0bn.

Performance Highlights

Q422 Performance highlights :
• Attributable profit was £1.0bn and RoTE was 8.9% with profit before impairment of £1.8bn, up 29% year-on-year
with positive cost: income jaws of 6%
• Group income was £5.8bn, up 12% year-on-year including the benefit from FX, with strong performances in Barclays
UK and CC&P. Within CIB, strong performances in Global Markets and Transaction banking were more than offset by
reduced income in Investment Banking and Corporate Lending
• Group operating expenses were £4.0bn, up 6% year-on-year, reflecting the impact of FX, inflation and investment in
the business
• Credit impairment charges were £0.5bn with an LLR of 49bps. The deteriorating macroeconomic forecast resulted in
an increased charge, partially offset by utilising economic uncertainty PMAs
Outlook:
• Returns: targeting RoTE of greater than 10% in 2023
• Income: diversified income streams continue to position the Group well for the current economic and market
environment including higher interest rates. In 2023, Barclays UK net interest margin (NIM) is expected to be greater than
2
3.20%
• Costs: targeting a cost: income ratio percentage in the low 60s in 2023, investing for growth whilst progressing towards
the Group’s medium-term target of below 60%
• Impairment: expect an LLR of 50-60bps in 2023, based on the current macroeconomic outlook
• Capital: expect to operate within the CET1 ratio target range of 13-14%
• Capital returns: capital distribution policy incorporates a progressive ordinary dividend, supplemented with buybacks as
appropriate

Group Finance Director's Review
1
2022 Group performance
• Barclays delivered a profit before tax of £7,012m (2021: £8,194m), RoTE of 10.4% (2021: 13.1%) and earnings per
share (EPS) of 30.8p (2021: 36.5p)
• The Group has a diverse income profile across businesses and geographies including a significant presence in the US.
The 10% appreciation of average USD against GBP positively impacted income and profits and adversely impacted credit
impairment charges and total operating expenses
• Group income increased to £24,956m (2021: £21,940m)
– Excluding the income benefit of £292m relating to hedging arrangements to manage the risks of the rescission offer
in relation to the Over-issuance of Securities, total Group income was £24,664m, up 12% year-on-year
• Group operating expenses increased to £16,730m (2021: £14,659m) mainly due to higher litigation and conduct
charges:
– Group operating expenses excluding litigation and conduct charges increased 6% to £15,133m, reflecting the impact
of inflation and the appreciation of average USD against GBP
– Litigation and conduct charges were £1,597m (2021: £397m) including £966m from the Over-issuance of Securities
• Credit impairment charges were £1,220m (2021: £653m net release). The increase in charges reflect macroeconomic
deterioration and a gradual increase in delinquencies, partially offset by the utilisation of macroeconomic uncertainty
PMAs and the release of COVID-19 related adjustments informed by refreshed scenarios. Total coverage ratio decreased
to 1.4% (December 2021: 1.6%) driven by changes in portfolio mix and write-offs. Coverage levels remain strong
• The effective tax rate (ETR) was 14.8% (2021: 13.9%). The tax charge included a £346m re-measurement of the
Group’s UK deferred tax assets (DTAs) due to the enactment of legislation to reduce the UK banking surcharge rate.
Excluding this DTAs downward re-measurement, the ETR was 9.9%, reflecting tax benefits in the current year, primarily
arising from tax relief related to government bonds linked to the high prevailing rate of inflation in 2022, as well as
beneficial adjustments in respect of prior years
• Attributable profit was £5,023m (2021: £6,205m)
• Total assets increased to £1,513.7bn (December 2021: £1,384.3bn) reflecting higher levels of activity as we supported
our clients through a period of market volatility, growth in customer lending, and appreciation of USD against GBP
• TNAV per share increased to 295p (December 2021: 291p) with EPS of 30.8p and currency movements partially offset
by net negative reserve movements due to higher interest rates, primarily in the cash flow hedging reserve
Capital distributions
• Barclays intends to pay a 2022 full year dividend of 5.0p per share, taking the total dividend for 2022 to 7.25p per share
(2021: 6.0p). Barclays also intends to initiate a share buyback of up to £0.5bn, bringing the total share buybacks
announced in relation to 2022 to £1.0bn and total capital return equivalent to c.13.4p per share
• Barclays is committed to maintaining an appropriate balance between delivering attractive total cash returns to
shareholders, investment in the business and maintaining a strong capital position. Barclays pays a progressive ordinary
dividend, taking into account these objectives and the earnings outlook of the Group. The Board will also continue to
supplement the ordinary dividends as appropriate, including with share buybacks
• Dividends will continue to be paid semi-annually
1
Group capital and leverage
• The reported CET1 ratio decreased by c.120bps to 13.9% (December 2021: 15.1%) as RWAs increased by £22.4bn to
£336.5bn and CET1 capital decreased by £0.4bn to £46.9bn
– c.150bps increase from 2022 attributable profit
– c.80bps returned to shareholders including the 2.25p half year dividend paid in September 2022, £1.5bn of share
buybacks announced with FY21 and H122 results and a FY22 dividend accrual
– c.80bps reduction due to the impact of regulatory change on 1 January 2022 as CET1 capital decreased £1.7bn and
RWAs increased £6.6bn
– c.70bps reduction from decreases in the fair value of the bond portfolio through other comprehensive income and
other capital deductions
– c.40bps reduction due to pension contributions, including the accelerated cash settlement to the UK Retirement Fund
(UKRF) of earlier deficit reduction contributions and deficit reduction payments made in 2022
– A £14.1bn increase in RWAs as a result of foreign exchange movements was broadly offset by a £2bn increase in the
currency translation reserve
• The UK leverage ratio increased to 5.3% (December 2021: 5.2%) primarily due to a decrease in the leverage exposure of
£7.9bn to £1,130.0bn and an increase in Tier 1 Capital of £0.6bn to £60.1bn

Restatement of financial statements (Note 1) on page 69 for more information.
Barclays PLC 6
Group Finance Director's Review
• Wholesale funding outstanding, excluding repurchase agreements, was £184.0bn (December 2021: £167.5bn). The
Group issued £15.3bn equivalent of minimum requirement for own funds and eligible liabilities (MREL) instruments from
Barclays PLC (BPLC) (the Parent company) in 2022. The Group has a strong MREL position with a ratio of 33.5% of
RWAs, which is in excess of the 28.9% regulatory requirement excluding a confidential, institution specific Prudential
Regulation Authority (PRA) buffer
Other matters
• Over-issuance of Securities: Barclays recognised a net attributable loss of £0.6bn in 2022 (£nil in Q422, £0.7bn total loss
1
including 2021). This included a monetary penalty of $200m (£165m ) following the resolution of the SEC’s investigation
of BPLC and BBPLC relating to the Over-issuance of Securities
As previously disclosed, Barclays has a contingent liability in relation to current and potential private civil claims and
other potential enforcement actions relating to the Over-issuance of Securities. For further details see Restatement of
financial statements (Note 1a) in the BPLC 2022 Annual Report on page 428.
• SEC and Commodity and Futures Trading Commission (CFTC) devices investigation: in Q322, the SEC and CFTC
announced the final settlement terms relating to their investigations of compliance with record-keeping obligations in
connection with business-related communications over unapproved electronic messaging platforms. Under these
1
settlements, BBPLC and Barclays Capital Inc. paid a combined $125m (£103m ) civil monetary penalty to the SEC and a
1
$75m (£62m ) civil monetary penalty to the CFTC
• Legacy Loan Portfolio: a customer remediation provision of £282m was recognised during 2022, relating to a legacy
timeshare loan portfolio brokered by Azure Services Limited and other legacy loan portfolios
• Financial Conduct Authority (FCA) proceedings: a provision of £50m was recognised in Q322 in relation to the FCA
investigation into disclosure-related matters arising out of BPLC's June and November 2008 capital raisings
2
• Gap portfolio acquisition: in Q222, Barclays completed the acquisition of a US credit card portfolio of $3.3bn (£2.7bn )
of receivables, in partnership with Gap Inc.
• Kensington Mortgage Company (KMC) acquisition: in Q222, BPLC announced that Barclays Bank UK PLC had agreed to
acquire UK specialist mortgage lender KMC and a portfolio of UK mortgages. Regulatory approval has been obtained and
the transaction is now expected to complete in Q123
• Absa Group Limited (Absa) sale: during 2022 Barclays fully disposed of its shareholding in Absa, raising aggregate gross
3
sale proceeds of ZAR 21.0bn (c.£1.1bn )
• UK Corporation Tax: an increase in the UK Corporation Tax rate from 19% to 25% was enacted in 2021 and a reduction
in the UK banking surcharge from 8% to 3% was enacted in 2022, both to be effective from 1 April 2023. The future
statutory tax rate applied to UK banking profits will therefore be 28% from 1 April 2023
Group targets
Barclays continues to target the following over the medium-term:
• Returns: RoTE of greater than 10%
• Cost efficiency: cost: income ratio below 60%
• Capital adequacy: CET1 ratio in the range of 13-14%

Balance sheet
• Loans and advances at amortised cost increased £35.8bn to £169.6bn due to increased lending to customers across
CIB and CC&P, inclusive of the Gap portfolio acquisition and appreciation of USD against GBP, and increased investment
in debt securities
• Trading portfolio assets decreased £13.1bn to £133.8bn due to a reduction in equity securities as clients repositioned
their demand, partially offset by increased trading activity in debt securities
• Derivative assets and liabilities increased £40.2bn and £32.5bn respectively to £301.7bn and £288.9bn driven by
market volatility and increased activity
• Financial assets at fair value through the income statement increased £22.3bn to £210.5bn driven by increased
reverse repurchase activity
• Deposits at amortised cost increased £28.8bn to £287.6bn primarily due to growth in Corporate deposits and an
increase in short-term money market deposits
• RWAs increased to £254.8bn (December 2021: £230.9bn) mainly resulting from the impact of the appreciation of USD
against GBP, regulatory changes and higher CC&P balances including the Gap portfolio

2 Other includes Head Office and the non-lending related investment bank businesses not included in Barclays International margins.
The Group NIM increased 61bps to 3.54%. Barclays UK NIM increased 34bps to 2.86%, reflecting the impact of higher UK
interest rates. Barclays International NIM increased 101bps to 5.02%. CIB NIM increased 62bps to 3.21% and CC&P NIM
increased 139bps to 7.60%, reflecting the impact of balance growth and higher interest rates.
The Group’s combined product and equity structural hedge notional as at 31 December 2022 was £263bn (31 December
2021: £228bn), with an average duration of approximately 2.5 years (2021: average duration close to 3 years). Gross
structural hedge contributions of £2,196m (2021: £1,415m) and net structural hedge contributions of £(1,544)m (2021:
£1,187m) are included in Group net interest income. Gross structural hedge contributions represent the absolute level of
interest earned from the fixed receipts on swaps in the structural hedge, while the net structural hedge contributions
represent the net interest earned on the difference between the structural hedge rate and prevailing floating rates.

Remuneration
Deferred bonuses are payable only once an employee meets certain conditions, including a specified period of future service.
This creates a timing difference between the communication of the bonus pool and the charges that are recognised in the
income statement which are reconciled in the table below to show the charge for performance costs. Refer to the
Remuneration Report on pages 197 to 245 of the Barclays PLC Annual Report 2022 for further detail on remuneration. The
table below includes the other elements of compensation and staff costs.
One of the primary considerations for performance costs are Group and business level returns, alongside other financial and
non-financial measures, including strategic delivery, risk and conduct, aligning colleague, shareholder and wider stakeholder
interests.
1 Post-retirement benefits charge includes £313m (2021: £289m) in respect of defined contribution schemes and £250m (2021: £250m) in respect of defined
benefit schemes.
2 £604m (2021: £484m) of Group compensation was capitalised as internally generated software and excluded from the Staff cost disclosed above.

Risk Management
The roles and responsibilities of the business groups, Risk and Compliance in the management of risk in the Group are
defined in the Enterprise Risk Management Framework. The purpose of the framework is to identify the principal risks of the
Group, the process by which the Group sets its appetite for these risks in its business activities, and the consequent limits
which it places on related risk taking.
The framework identifies nine principal risks: credit risk, market risk, treasury and capital risk, climate risk, operational risk,
model risk, conduct risk, reputation risk and legal risk. Further detail on the Group’s principal risks and previously identified
material existing and emerging risks and how such risks are managed is available in the Barclays PLC Annual Report 2022, or
online at home.barclays/annualreport.
The following section gives an overview of credit risk, market risk, and treasury and capital risk for the period.

The table below presents a stage allocation and business segment analysis of loans and advances at amortised cost by
gross exposure, impairment allowance, impairment charge and coverage ratio as at 31 December 2022. Also included are
stage allocation of off-balance sheet loan commitments and financial guarantee contracts by gross exposure, impairment
allowance and coverage as at 31 December 2022.
Impairment allowance under IFRS 9 considers both the drawn and the undrawn counterparty exposure. For retail portfolios,
the total impairment allowance is allocated to gross loans and advances to the extent allowance does not exceed the drawn
exposure and any excess is reported on the liabilities side of the balance sheet as a provision. For wholesale portfolios,
impairment allowance on undrawn exposure is reported on the liability side of the balance sheet as a provision.
1 Includes Wealth UK and Private Banking exposures measured on an individual customer exposure basis and excludes Business Banking exposures,
including lending under the government backed Bounce Back Loan Scheme (BBLS) of £6.6bn that are managed on a collective basis and reported within
Barclays UK Retail. The net impact is a difference in total exposure of £3.8bn of balances reported as wholesale loans on page 31 in the Loans and
advances at amortised cost by product disclosure.
2 Excludes loan commitments and financial guarantees of £14.9bn carried at fair value.
3 Other financial assets subject to impairment not included in the table above include cash collateral and settlement balances, financial assets at fair value
through other comprehensive income and other assets. These have a total gross exposure of £180.1bn and impairment allowance of £163m. This
comprises £10m ECL on £178.4bn Stage 1 assets, £9m on £1.5bn Stage 2 fair value through other comprehensive income assets, cash collateral and

Credit Risk
The table below presents a breakdown of drawn exposure and impairment allowance for loans and advances at amortised
cost with stage allocation for selected industry sectors within the wholesale loans portfolio. As the nature of
macroeconomic uncertainty has evolved from the COVID-19 pandemic towards high inflation, supply chain constraints and
consumer demand headwinds, so has the selected population under management focus. The credit risk industry
concentration disclosure in the analysis of the concentration of credit risk section represents all the industry categories and
the below only covers a subset of that table.
The gross loans and advances to selected sectors has decreased during the year. The increased provision is informed by the
current macroeconomic outlook and underlying portfolio performance. The wholesale portfolio also benefits from a hedge
protection programme that enables effective risk management against credit losses. An additional £115m (December 2021:
£123m) impairment allowance has been applied to the undrawn exposures not included in the table below.
1
Exposure to UK Commercial Real Estate (CRE) of £9.7bn (2021: £10bn ) remained stable and was predominantly in Stage 1
at 81% (2021: 78%). The loan portfolio was well collateralised, hence a low coverage of 1.1% (ECL: £0.1bn). Exposure at
Stage 3 was 2% (2021: 3%) with a coverage ratio of 12% (2021: 18%).
However, UK CRE has been included within selected sector scoping as the broader real estate sector remains under pressure
due to pricing and affordability concerns, as well as construction input costs and supply chain issues adding to the
uncertainty, in particular across non-investment grade exposures.
The coverage ratio for selected sectors has increased from 1.6% as at 31 December 2021 to 2.0% as at 31 December 2022.
Non-default coverage ratio has increased from 0.9% as at 31 December 2021 to 1.2% as at 31 December 2022.
1 From 2022, Barclays has enhanced the process of identifying UK CRE exposures.

Movement in gross exposures and impairment allowance including provisions for loan commitments and
financial guarantees
The following tables present a reconciliation of the opening to the closing balance of the exposure and impairment
allowance. An explanation of the methodology used to determine credit impairment provisions is included in the Barclays
PLC Annual Report 2022. Transfers between stages in the table have been reflected as if they had taken place at the
beginning of the year. The movements are measured over a 12-month period.
1 Business activity in the period does not include additional drawdowns on the existing facility which are reported under 'Net drawdowns, repayments, net re-
measurement and movements due to exposure and risk parameter changes'. Business activity reported within Credit cards, unsecured loans and other
retail lending portfolio includes Gap portfolio acquisition in US cards of £2.7bn.
2 Final repayments include repayment from the facility closed during the year whereas partial repayments from existing facility are reported under 'Net
drawdowns, repayments, net remeasurement and movements due to exposure and risk parameter changes'.
3 In 2022, gross write-offs amounted to £1,620m (2021: £1,836m). In Q422, £329m of balances with de minimis recovery expectations were written-off in
line with policy in UK Cards and Unsecured Loans. Post write-off recoveries amounted to £64m (2021: £66m). Net write-offs represent gross write-offs less
post write-off recoveries and amounted to £1,556m (2021: £1,770m).
4 Other financial assets subject to impairment not included in the table above include cash collateral and settlement balances, financial assets at fair value
through other comprehensive income and other assets. These have a total gross exposure of £180.1bn (December 21: £155.2bn) and an impairment
allowance of £163m (December 21: £114m). This comprises £10m ECL (December 21: £6m) on £178.4bn Stage 1 assets (December 21: £154.9bn), £9m
(December 21: £1m) on £1.5bn Stage 2 fair value through other comprehensive income assets, other assets and cash collateral and settlement balances
(December 21: £157m) and £144m (December 21: £107m) on £149m Stage 3 other assets (December 21: £110m).
5 Refinements to models used for calculation reported within Credit cards, unsecured loans and other retail lending portfolio include a £0.3bn movement in
US Cards and £(0.2)bn movement in UK Cards. These reflect model enhancements made during the year. Barclays continually review the output of models
to determine accuracy of the ECL calculation including review of model monitoring, external benchmarking and experience of model operation over an
extended period of time. This ensures that the models used continue to reflect the risks inherent across the businesses.
6 The £0.5bn disposals reported within Credit cards, unsecured loans and other retail lending portfolio includes £0.2bn sale of NFL portfolio within US Cards
and £0.3bn of debt sales undertaken during the year.

2 Refinements to models used for calculation reported within Wholesale loans include a £(0.5)bn movement in Business Banking. This relates to an update in
the underlying ECL model that now fully recognises the 100% government guarantee against Barclays Bounce Back Loans exposure.
3 'Net drawdowns, repayments, net re-measurement and movements due to exposure and risk parameter changes' reported within Wholesale loans also
include assets of £1.3bn de-recognised due to payment received on defaulted loans from government guarantees issued under government’s Bounce Back
Loans Scheme.
4 Final repayments include repayment from the facilities closed during the year whereas partial repayments from existing facility are reported under 'Net
drawdowns, repayments, net remeasurement and movements due to exposure and risk parameter changes'.
5 The £1.6bn disposals reported within Wholesale loans includes sale of debt securities as part of Group Treasury Operations.
6 In 2022, gross write-offs amounted to £1,620m (2021: £1,836m). In Q422, £329m of balances with de minimis recovery expectations were written-off in
line with policy in UK Cards and Unsecured Loans. Post write-off recoveries amounted to £64m (2021: £66m). Net write-offs represent gross write-offs less
post write-off recoveries and amounted to £1,556m (2021: £1,770m).
7 Other financial assets subject to impairment not included in the table above include cash collateral and settlement balances, financial assets at fair value
through other comprehensive income and other assets. These have a total gross exposure of £180.1bn (December 21: £155.2bn) and impairment
allowance of £163m (December 21: £114m). This comprises £10m ECL (December 21: £6m) on £178.4bn stage 1 assets (December 21: £154.9bn), £9m
(December 21: £1m) on £1.5bn stage 2 fair value through other comprehensive income assets, other assets and cash collateral and settlement balances
(December 21: £157m) and £144m (December 21: £107m) on £149m stage 3 other assets (December 21: £110m).
8 Recoveries and reimbursements includes £199m (2021 loss: £306m) for reimbursements expected to be received under the arrangement where Group has
entered into financial guarantee contracts which provide credit protection over certain loan assets with third parties and cash recoveries of previously
written off amounts of £64m (FY21: £66m).
9 Exchange and other adjustments includes foreign exchange and interest and fees in suspense.

3 Total impairment allowance consists of ECL stock on drawn and undrawn exposure.
Models have been developed with data from non-inflationary periods establishing a relationship between input variables
and customer delinquency based on past behaviour. Additionally, models are trying to interpret significant rates of change
in macroeconomic variables and applying these to stable probability of default (PD) levels. As such there is a risk that the
modelled output fails to capture the appropriate response to changes in macroeconomic variables and rising costs with
modelled impairment provisions impacted by uncertainty.
This uncertainty continues to be captured in two ways. Firstly, customer uncertainty: the identification of customers and
clients who may be more vulnerable to economic instability; and secondly, model uncertainty: to capture the impact from
model limitations and sensitivities to specific macroeconomic parameters which are applied at a portfolio level.
Barclays PLC 36

In 2022, previously established economic uncertainty adjustments have been partially released, informed by some
normalisation of customer behaviour, refreshed scenarios and a rebuild of certain models to better capture the
macroeconomic outlook.
The balance as at 31 December 2022 is £317m (December 2021: £1,692m) and includes:
Customer and client uncertainty provisions of £423m (December 2021: £1,508m) includes:
• Credit cards, unsecured loans and other retail lending includes an adjustment of £118m (December 2021:
£1,203m) which has been applied to customers and clients considered most vulnerable to affordability pressures.
This adjustment is predominantly held in Stage 2 in line with customer risk profiles.
The reduction is informed by the release of COVID-19 related adjustments as credit performance stabilises at or
below pre-pandemic levels which is reflected in the models, and a rebuild of certain models to better capture the
macroeconomic outlook.
• Wholesale loans: £301m (FY21: £305m) includes an adjustment of £205m for exposures considered most at risk
from inflationary concerns, supply chain constraints and consumer demand headwinds. The adjustment involves
applying Stage 2 coverage rates to Stage 1 exposures assessed as most vulnerable. Sectors in scope are presented
in the selected sectors disclosure on page 32. The remaining adjustment includes £92m to reflect possible cross
default risk on Barclays' lending in respect of clients who have taken bounce back loans.
• Wholesale loans: £(106)m (December 2021: £98m) includes an adjustment to correct for the deterioration in
wholesale PDs impacted by model over-sensitivity to certain macroeconomic variables. In 2021, this adjustment
was held at £98m driven by an unintuitive model output from certain Q421 macroeconomic variables.
• Management adjustments of £72m within home loans in 2021 primarily comprised of a now retired adjustment,
reflecting the non-linearity of the UK mortgages portfolio in order to generate a more appropriate level of predicted
results.
Other adjustments
Other adjustments are operational in nature and are expected to remain in place until they can be reflected in the underlying
models. These adjustments result from data limitations and model performance related issues identified through model
monitoring and other established governance processes.
• Home loans: £85m (December 2021: £31m) primarily includes adjustments for model performance informed by
model monitoring and an adjustment for the adoption of the new definition of default under the Capital
Requirements Regulation.
• Credit cards, unsecured loans and other retail lending: £202m (December 2021: £145m) primarily includes an
adjustment for adoption of the new definition of default under the Capital Requirements Regulation and an
adjustment to the qualitative measures used in identification of high-risk account management (HRAM) accounts
for US cards, partially offset by a recalibration of Loss Given Default (LGD) to reflect revised recovery expectations.
The £145m adjustments held in December 2021 primarily included adjustments for model performance informed
by model monitoring, partially offset by an adjustment for reclassification of loans and advances from Stage 2 to
Stage 1 in credit cards. The reclassification followed a review of back-testing results which indicated that accuracy
of origination probability of default characteristics require management adjustment. These adjustments are no
longer required due to model enhancements made during the year.
• Wholesale loans: £(79)m (December 2021: £(382)m): includes adjustments for model performance informed by
model monitoring.
Management adjustments of £(382)m within wholesale loans in 2021 consisted of an adjustment of £(380)m
applied on bounce back loans to reverse out the modelled charge which did not consider the government
guarantee. This adjustment is no longer needed due to model enhancements made during the year.

Measurement uncertainty
Scenarios used to calculate the Group’s ECL charge were refreshed in Q422 with the Baseline scenario reflecting the latest
consensus macroeconomic forecasts available at the time of the scenario refresh. In the Baseline scenario, further
deterioration in major economies, as inflation pressures continue to squeeze household income, along with significant
monetary policy tightening contribute to lower growth prospects. UK GDP is expected to continue falling into 2023 and the
US economy dips into mild recession in 2023. Slight increases in the UK and US unemployment rates are expected, peaking
at 4.9% in Q423 and 4.7% in Q124 respectively. Central banks continue raising interest rates, peaking during 2023, and
consumer price inflation eases over 2023.
In the Downside 2 scenario, inflation continues to accelerate amid increasing gas and oil prices and persistent supply-chain
pressures as a result of the Russia-Ukraine conflict. Central banks are forced to raise interest rates sharply with the UK bank
rate reaching 8% and the US federal funds rate peaking at 7%. Unemployment peaks at 8.5% in the UK and 8.6% in the US.
Given already stretched valuations, the sharp increase in borrowing costs sees house prices decrease significantly. In the
Upside 2 scenario, lower energy prices add downward pressure on prices globally, while recovering labour force participation
limits wage growth. As a result of easing inflation, central banks lower interest rates to support the economic recovery.
The methodology for estimating scenario probability weights involves simulating a range of future paths for UK and US GDP
using historical data with the five scenarios mapped against the distribution of these future paths. The median is centred
around the Baseline with scenarios further from the Baseline attracting a lower weighting before the five weights are
normalised to total 100%. The increase in the Downside weightings and the decrease in the Upside weightings reflected the
deteriorating economic outlook which moved the Baseline UK/US GDP paths closer to the Downside scenarios. For further
details see page 41.
The economic uncertainty adjustments of £0.3bn (2021: £1.7bn) have been applied as overlays to the modelled ECL output.
These adjustments consist of a customer and client uncertainty provision of £0.4bn (2021: £1.5bn) which has been applied
to customers and clients considered most vulnerable to affordability pressures, and a model uncertainty adjustment of
£(0.1)bn (2021: £0.2bn). For further details see page 36.

The use of five scenarios with associated weightings results in a total weighted ECL uplift from the Baseline ECL of 1.7%.
Home loans: Total weighted ECL of £372m represents a 6.3% increase over the Baseline ECL (£350m) with coverage ratios
remaining steady across the Upside scenarios, Baseline and Downside 1 scenario. Under the Downside 2 scenario, total ECL
increases to £586m driven by a significant fall in UK HPI to (18.3)% in 2023 reflecting the non-linearity of the UK portfolio.
Credit cards, unsecured loans and other retail lending: Total weighted ECL of £3,411m is aligned to the Baseline ECL
(£3,413m). The impact of the deteriorated Baseline scenario relative to the severity of the downside scenarios is greater than
the impact of the higher weights applied to the Downside scenarios when compared to 2021. This results in a convergence
between Baseline and Weighted ECL in 2022. Total ECL increases to £3,943m under the Downside 2 scenario, driven by the
significant increase in UK unemployment rate to 6.0% and US unemployment rate to 6.0% in 2023.
Wholesale loans: Total weighted ECL of £977m represents an 6.3% increase over the Baseline ECL (£919m). Total ECL
increases to £1,783m under Downside 2 scenario, driven by a significant decrease in UK GDP to (3.4)% and US GDP to
(2.7)% in 2023.

1 Model exposures are allocated to a stage based on an individual scenario rather than a probability-weighted approach, as required for Barclays reported
impairment allowances. As a result, it is not possible to back solve the final reported weighted ECL from individual scenarios given balances may be assigned
to a different stage dependent on the scenario.
2 For Credit cards, unsecured loans and other retail lending, the model exposure movement between stages 1 and 2 across scenarios differs due to additional
impacts from the undrawn exposure.
3 In 2021, Loans & Advances at amortised cost were used as model exposure for the International Consumer Bank within this disclosure. The process was
revised in 2022 to incorporate Exposure at Default (EAD) with no impact to ECL. This has been represented in prior year comparatives.
4 Model exposures allocated to Stage 3 does not change in any of the scenarios as the transition criteria relies only on an observable evidence of default as at
31 December 2021 and not on macroeconomic scenario.
5 Material wholesale loan defaults are individually assessed across different recovery strategies. As a result, ECL of £524m is reported as an individually
assessed impairment in the reconciliation table.
6 Post Model Adjustments include negative adjustments reflecting operational post model adjustments.

1 Portfolio marked to market based on the most updated valuation including recovery book balances. Updated valuations reflect the application of the latest
HPI available as at 31 December 2022.
New lending in 2022 was £30.3bn, a reduction of 11% on 2021. This was mainly driven by economic conditions that
resulted in general mortgage market suppression, including higher mortgage payments as rates continued to rise and
increased cost of living factors in line with inflation.
Head Office: Italian home loans and advances at amortised cost reduced to £4.5bn (2021: £4.7bn) and continue to run-off
since new bookings ceased in 2016. The portfolio is secured on residential property with an average balance weighted mark
to market LTV of 58.8% (2021: 60.4%). 90 day arrears decreased to 1.2% (2021: 1.3%), gross charge-off rates increased to
0.6% (2021: 0.3%) due to a combination of affordability stress related to rising inflation and interest rates, and the
particularly low rate observed in 2021 due to the COVID portfolio improvements.

net write off rates decreased by 0.7% as a result of the reducing delinquent stock and subsequent flow into recoveries.
US cards: Balances increased due to the acquisition of the Gap portfolio in June 2022, movement in the USD/GBP exchange
rate and core portfolio growth. 30 and 90 day arrears rates increased to 2.2% (Q421: 1.6%) and 1.2% (Q421: 0.8%) due to
the partial normalisation of customer behaviour and the acquisition of the Gap portfolio, though rates remain below pre-

the benefit of government support schemes.
Germany consumer lending: 30 day arrears rate increased to 1.7% (Q421: 1.5%) due to increased macroeconomic
uncertainty in Europe, though the rate was consistent with pre-pandemic levels.

The table below shows the total management VaR on a diversified basis by asset class. Total management VaR includes all
trading positions in Barclays Bank Group and it is calculated with a one-day holding period. VaR limits are applied to total
management VaR and by asset class. Additionally, the market risk management function applies VaR sub-limits to material
businesses and trading desks.
1 Diversification effects recognise that forecast losses from different assets or businesses are unlikely to occur concurrently, hence the expected aggregate
loss is lower than the sum of the expected losses from each area. Historical correlations between losses are taken into account in making these
assessments. The high and low VaR figures reported for each category did not necessarily occur on the same day as the high and low VaR reported as a
whole. Consequently, a diversification effect balance for the high and low VaR figures would not be meaningful and is therefore omitted from the above
table.
Average management VaR increased 89% to £36m (2021: £19m) driven by higher market volatility. The Russia-Ukraine
conflict and elevated inflation increased volatility across all asset classes as central banks increased base rates, equity
markets declined, and credit spreads widened during this period. The Global Markets business maintained a generally short
and defensive risk profile (i.e. positioned to gain as the market sells off) for most of 2022. VaR increased in Q4 2022 from an
increase in funded, fair-value leverage loan exposure in Investment Banking. Risk taking remained within agreed risk
appetite limits at all times in 2022.

The Group has established a comprehensive set of policies, standards and controls for managing its liquidity risk; together
these set out the requirements for Barclays’ liquidity risk framework. The liquidity risk framework meets the PRA standards
and enables Barclays to maintain liquidity resources that are sufficient in amount and quality, and a funding profile that is
appropriate to meet the Group’s Liquidity Risk Appetite. The liquidity risk framework is delivered via a combination of policy
formation, review and challenge, governance, analysis, stress testing, limit setting and monitoring.
The internal liquidity stress test measures the potential contractual and contingent stress outflows under a range of
scenarios, which are then used to determine the size of the liquidity pool that is immediately available to meet anticipated
outflows if a stress occurs. The short-term scenarios include a 30 day Barclays-specific stress event, a 90 day market-wide
stress event and a 30 day combined scenario consisting of both a Barclays specific and market-wide stress event. The Group
also runs a long-term liquidity stress test, which measures the anticipated outflows over a 12 month market-wide scenario
The LCR requirement takes into account the relative stability of different sources of funding and potential incremental
funding requirements in a stress. The LCR is designed to promote short-term resilience of a bank’s liquidity risk profile by
holding sufficient high quality liquid assets to survive an acute stress scenario lasting for 30 days.
As at 31 December 2022, the Group held eligible liquid assets in excess of 100% of net stress outflows to its internal and
external regulatory requirements.
The external NSFR metric requires banks to maintain a stable funding profile taking into account both on and certain off
balance sheet exposures over a medium to long term period. The ratio is defined as the Available Stable Funding (capital and
certain liabilities which are treated as stable sources of funding) relative to the Required Stable Funding (assets on balance
sheet and certain off balance sheet exposures). The NSFR (average of last four quarter ends) as at 31 December 2022 was
137%, which was a surplus above requirements of £155bn.

As part of the liquidity risk appetite, Barclays establishes minimum LCR, NSFR and internal liquidity stress test limits. The
Group plans to maintain its surplus to the internal and regulatory requirements at an efficient level. Risks to market funding
conditions, the Group’s liquidity position and funding profile are assessed continuously, and actions are taken to manage the
size of the liquidity pool and the funding profile as appropriate.

1 The LCR eligible HQLA is adjusted for operational restrictions upon consolidation under Article 8 of the Liquidity Coverage Ratio section of the PRA rulebook
(CRR) such as trapped liquidity within Barclays subsidiaries. It also reflects differences in eligibility of assets between the LCR and Barclays’ Liquidity Pool.
2 Includes cash held at central banks and surplus cash at central banks related to payment schemes. Over 99% (December 2021: over 99%) was placed with
the Bank of England, US Federal Reserve, European Central Bank, Bank of Japan and Swiss National Bank.
3 Of which over 79% (December 2021: over 82%) comprised UK, US, French, German, Japanese, Swiss and Dutch securities.
The Group liquidity pool increased to £318bn as at December 2022 (December 2021: £291bn) driven by continued deposit
growth and an increase in wholesale funding, which were partly offset by an increase in business funding consumption and
trapped liquidity within Barclays’ subsidiaries. During 2022, the month-end liquidity pool ranged from £309bn to £359bn
(2021: £290bn to £337bn), and the month-end average balance was £331bn (2021: £303bn). The liquidity pool is held
unencumbered and is not used to support payment or clearing requirements. Such requirements are treated as part of our
regular business funding. The liquidity pool is intended to offset stress outflows, and comprises the above cash and
unencumbered assets.
As at 31 December 2022, 60% (December 2021: 58%) of the liquidity pool was located in Barclays Bank PLC, 25%
(December 2021: 30%) in Barclays Bank UK PLC and 9% (December 2021: 7%) in Barclays Bank Ireland PLC. The residual
portion of the liquidity pool is held outside of these entities, predominantly in US subsidiaries, to meet entity-specific stress
outflows and local regulatory requirements. To the extent the use of this residual portion of the liquidity pool is restricted
due to local regulatory requirements or operational restrictions, it is assumed to be unavailable to the rest of the Group in
calculating the LCR.
The composition of the pool is subject to limits and controls set by the respective entity Boards and independent liquidity
risk, credit risk and market risk functions. In addition, the investment of the liquidity pool is monitored for concentration by
issuer, currency and asset type. Given returns generated by these highly liquid assets, the risk and reward profile is
continuously managed.

1 The loan: deposit ratio is calculated as loans and advances at amortised cost divided by deposits at amortised cost.
The basis for liquidity risk management is a funding structure that reduces the probability of a liquidity stress leading to an
inability to meet funding obligations as they fall due. The Group’s overall funding strategy is to develop a diversified funding
base (geographically, by type and by counterparty) and maintain access to a variety of alternative funding sources, to
provide protection against unexpected fluctuations, while minimising the cost of funding.
Within this, the Group aims to align the sources and uses of funding. As such, retail and corporate loans and advances are
largely funded by deposits in the relevant entities, with the surplus primarily funding the liquidity pool. The majority of
reverse repurchase agreements are matched by repurchase agreements. Derivative liabilities and assets are largely matched.
A substantial proportion of balance sheet derivative positions qualify for counterparty netting and the remaining portions are
largely offset when netted against cash collateral received and paid. Wholesale debt and equity is used to fund residual
assets.

Treasury and Capital Risk
Capital
The Group’s Overall Capital Requirement for CET1 is 11.3% comprising a 4.5% Pillar 1 minimum, a 2.5% Capital
Conservation Buffer (CCB), a 1.5% Global Systemically Important Institution (G-SII) buffer, a 2.4% Pillar 2A requirement and
a 0.4% Countercyclical Capital Buffer (CCyB).
The Group’s CCyB is based on the buffer rate applicable for each jurisdiction in which the Group has exposures. On 13
December 2021, the Financial Policy Committee (FPC) announced the re-introduction of a CCyB rate of 1% for UK exposures
with effect from 13 December 2022. The buffer rates set by other national authorities for non-UK exposures are not
currently material. Overall, this results in a 0.4% CCyB for the Group. On 5 July 2022, the FPC announced that the UK CCyB
rate will be increased from 1% to 2% with effect from 5 July 2023.
The Group’s updated Pillar 2A requirement as per the PRA’s Individual Capital requirement is 4.3% of which at least 56.25%
needs to be met with CET1 capital, equating to 2.4% of RWAs. The Pillar 2A requirement, based on a point in time
assessment, has been set as a proportion of RWAs and is subject to at least annual review.
The Group’s CET1 target ratio of 13-14% takes into account headroom above requirements which includes a confidential
institution-specific PRA buffer. The Group remains above its minimum capital regulatory requirements including the PRA
buffer.
Leverage
The Group is subject to a UK leverage ratio requirement of 4.0%. This comprises the 3.25% minimum requirement, a G-SII
additional leverage ratio buffer (G-SII ALRB) of 0.53% and a countercyclical leverage ratio buffer (CCLB) of 0.2%. Although
the leverage ratio is expressed in terms of Tier 1 (T1) capital, 75% of the minimum requirement, equating to 2.4375%, needs
to be met with CET1 capital. In addition, the G-SII ALRB and CCLB must be covered solely with CET1 capital. The CET1
capital held against the 0.53% G-SII ALRB was £5.9bn and against the 0.2% CCLB was £2.3bn.
The Group is also required to disclose an average UK leverage ratio which is based on capital on the last day of each month
in the quarter and an exposure measure for each day in the quarter.
MREL
The Group is required to meet the higher of: (i) two times the sum of 8% Pillar 1 and 4.3% Pillar 2A equating to 24.5% of
RWAs; and (ii) 6.75% of leverage exposures. In addition, the higher of regulatory capital and leverage buffers apply. CET1
capital cannot be counted towards both MREL and the buffers, meaning that the buffers, including the above mentioned
confidential institution-specific PRA buffer, will effectively be applied above MREL requirements.
On 1 January 2022, the PRA’s implementation of Basel III standards took effect including the re-introduction of the 100%
CET1 capital deduction for qualifying software intangible assets and the introduction of the Standardised Approach for
Counterparty Credit Risk (SA-CCR) which replaces the Current Exposure Method for Standardised derivative exposures as a
more risk sensitive approach. In addition, the PRA also implemented IRB roadmap changes which includes revisions to the
criteria for definition of default, probability of default and loss given default estimation to ensure supervisory consistency and
increase transparency of IRB models.
On 30 November 2022, the PRA published its consultation paper 'Implementation of the Basel 3.1 standards', which covers
the remaining parts of the Basel III standards to be implemented in the UK. Changes are expected to come in to force from 1
January 2025, other than those areas subject to transitional provisions. Barclays currently expects the impact on RWAs on 1
January 2025 to be at the lower end of the prior 5-10% RWA inflation guidance. The PRA is currently consulting on the rule
changes, and there will be a review of the Pillar 2A framework in 2024 which may offset some of the impact.
Leverage
From 1 January 2022, UK banks became subject to a single UK leverage ratio requirement meaning that the CRR leverage
ratio no longer applies. Under the revised UK leverage ratio framework, central bank claims have been excluded from the UK
leverage exposure measure where they are matched by qualifying liabilities (rather than deposits).
In the disclosures that follow, references to CRR, as amended by CRR II, mean the capital regulatory requirements, as they
form part of domestic law by virtue of the European Union (Withdrawal) Act 2018, as amended.

Basis of preparation
In March 2022, the Group became aware that Barclays Bank PLC had issued securities materially in excess of the amount it
had registered with the SEC under Barclays Bank PLC’s 2019 F-3. Subsequently, the Group became aware that securities had
also been issued in excess of the amount it had registered with the SEC under the Predecessor Shelf. The securities issued in
excess of the registered amount included structured products and exchange traded notes. As these securities were not
issued in compliance with the Securities Act, a right of rescission arose for certain purchasers of the securities. A portion of
the costs associated with the right of rescission was attributable to the financial statements for the year ended 31 December
2021, resulting in the restatement of the 2021 figures in the disclosures below.
Prior to the restatement, litigation and conduct charges in the income statement in relation to 2021 were underreported by
£220m (pre-tax). This resulted in a CET1 capital decrease of £170m from £47,497m to £47,327m. Both the transitional and
fully loaded CET1 ratios remained unchanged at 15.1% and 14.7% respectively. The T1 ratio moved from 19.2% to 19.1%
and the total capital ratio moved from 22.3% to 22.2%.
The leverage exposure increased £1.9bn to recognise on a regulatory basis, the potential commitment relating to the
rescission offer. This resulted in the UK leverage ratio moving from 5.3% to 5.2% whilst the average UK leverage ratio
remained unchanged at 4.9%.
Total own funds and eligible liabilities decreased £0.2bn to £108bn, which was in excess of a restated requirement to hold
£94bn of own funds and eligible liabilities.

CET1 capital decreased by £1.7bn as a result of regulatory changes that took effect from 1 January 2022 including the re-
introduction of the 100% CET1 capital deduction for qualifying software intangible assets and a reduction in IFRS9
transitional relief due to the relief applied to the pre-2020 impairment charge reducing to 25% in 2022 from 50% in 2021
and the relief applied to the post-2020 impairment charge reducing to 75% in 2022 from 100% in 2021.
£5.9bn of capital generated from profit, after absorbing the £0.6bn net of tax impact of the Over-issuance of Securities, was
partially offset by distributions of £3.5bn comprising:
• £1.5bn of total buybacks including the £1bn buyback announced with FY21 results and the £0.5bn buyback announced
with H122 results
• £1.1bn of ordinary share dividends paid and foreseen reflecting the £0.4bn half year 2022 dividend paid and a £0.8bn

2 Capital and leverage measures are calculated applying the transitional arrangements of the CRR as amended by CRR II.
3 Fully loaded average UK leverage ratio was 4.7%, with £60.1bn of T1 capital and £1,280.2bn of leverage exposure. Fully loaded UK leverage ratio was 5.3%,
with £59.4bn of T1 capital and £1,129.3bn of leverage exposure. Fully loaded UK leverage ratios are calculated without applying the transitional
arrangements of the CRR as amended by CRR II.
The UK leverage ratio increased to 5.3% (December 2021: 5.2%) primarily due to a £7.9bn decrease in the leverage
exposure and a £0.6bn increase in Tier 1 capital. The UK leverage exposure decreased to £1,130.0bn (December 2021:
£1,137.9bn) largely due to the following movements:
• £53.1bn decrease in PFE on derivatives largely driven by increased netting eligibility due to the introduction of SA-
CCR
• £42.0bn decrease in cash at central banks net of the qualifying central bank claims exemption primarily due to the
matching of allowable liabilities rather than deposits introduced under the UK leverage ratio framework and a
decrease in Swiss Franc cash assets
• £33.0bn increase in loans and advances and other assets (excluding cash and settlement balances which are
subject to regulatory exemptions) primarily due to increased lending
Barclays PLC 60
Treasury and Capital Risk
• £29.5bn increase in derivative financial instruments post additional regulatory netting and adjustments for cash
collateral primarily driven by market volatility, increased activity in CIB and the application of a 1.4 multiplier
introduced under SA-CCR
• £18.4bn increase in SFTs primarily driven by increased reverse repurchase activity in CIB
The average UK leverage ratio decreased to 4.8% (December 2021: 4.9%) due to a £51.9bn increase in average leverage
exposure partially offset by a £1.1bn increase in average T1 capital. The average UK leverage exposure increased to
£1,281.0bn (December 2021: £1,229.0bn) mainly driven by increased activity during the year that was partially offset by the
impact of regulatory changes that came into effect from 1 January 2022 under the UK leverage ratio framework.

Financial Statement Notes
1. Basis of preparation
The comparatives in these condensed consolidated financial statements for the year ended 31 December 2022 (the financial
statements) have been restated to reflect both a provision and contingent liability disclosure in respect of the impact of an
over-issuance of securities (the Over-issuance of Securities) in excess of the maximum aggregate offering price registered
under Barclays Bank PLC’s shelf registration statement on Form F-3, as declared effective by the SEC in August 2019 (2019
F-3) and Barclays Bank PLC’s Predecessor Shelf.
Due to an SEC settlement order in 2017, at the time the 2019 F-3 was filed and the Predecessor Shelf was amended, Barclays
Bank PLC had ceased to be a “well-known seasoned issuer” (or WKSI) and had become an “ineligible issuer”, as defined in
Rule 405 under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (Securities Act), thus being required to register upfront a fixed
amount of securities with the SEC.
In March 2022, Barclays Bank PLC became aware that it had issued securities in the US materially in excess of the amount it
had registered with the SEC under the 2019 F-3. Subsequently, Barclays Bank PLC became aware that securities had also
been issued in excess of the amount it had registered with the SEC under the Predecessor Shelf. The securities that were
issued in this period included structured notes and exchange traded notes (ETNs). Certain offers and sales of these securities
were not made in compliance with the Securities Act, giving rise to rights of rescission for certain purchasers of the
securities. Under Section 12(a)(1) of the Securities Act, certain purchasers of unregistered securities have a right to recover,
upon the tender of such security, the consideration paid for such security with interest, less the amount of any income
received, or damages if the purchaser sold the securities at a loss (the Rescission Price). As a result, Barclays Bank PLC made
a rescission offer to eligible purchasers of the relevant affected securities at the Rescission Price (the Rescission Offer).
A portion of the costs associated with the rights of rescission of certain investors was attributable to Barclays PLC’s financial
statements for the year ended 31 December 2021. Accordingly, the comparatives in these financial statements have been
restated. The restatement impacts the consolidated income statement, the consolidated statement of comprehensive
income, the consolidated balance sheet, the consolidated statement of changes in equity, and the consolidated cash flow
statement for the year ended 31 December 2021, as well as quarterly financial information that is presented within this
document.
Barclays PLC 69
Financial Statement Notes
The table below reflects each of the consolidated financial statement line items that were affected by the restatement:
2. Tax
1
The tax charge for 2022 was £1,039m (restated 2021: £1,138m), representing an effective tax rate (ETR) of 14.8%
1
(restated 2021: 13.9%). The ETR for 2022 includes a charge recognised for the re-measurement of the Group’s UK deferred
tax assets (DTAs) due to the enactment of legislation in Q122 to reduce the UK banking surcharge rate being from 8% to 3%
effective from 1 April 2023. The ETR excluding the impact of this downward re-measurement of UK DTAs was 9.9%,
reflecting the impact of tax benefits arising in the current year, primarily arising from tax relief related to government bonds
linked to the high prevailing rate of inflation in 2022, as well as beneficial adjustments in respect of prior years. Included in
the 2022 tax charge is a credit of £244m (2021: £212m) in respect of payments made on AT1 instruments that are classified
as equity for accounting purposes. The 2021 ETR included a benefit recognised for the re-measurement of the Group’s UK
DTAs as a result of the enactment of legislation to increase the UK Corporation Tax rate to 25% effective from 1 April 2023.
The re-measurement of UK DTAs has resulted in the Group's DTAs decreasing by £318m with a tax charge in the income
statement of £346m and a tax credit within other comprehensive income of £28m.
In its Autumn Statement held in November 2022, the UK Government confirmed that, as currently enacted, the banking
surcharge rate will be reduced from 8% to 3% from 1 April 2023. UK deferred tax assets as at 31 December 2022 are
measured at this rate, having been remeasured when the 3% rate was substantively enacted in 2022. The statutory tax rate
applicable to banks' UK profits will therefore be 28% (comprising a rate of 25% for Corporation Tax and of 3% for banking
surcharge) from 1 April 2023.
The OECD and G20 Inclusive Framework on Base Erosion and Profit Shifting announced plans to introduce a global
minimum tax rate of 15% and the OECD issued model rules in 2021. During 2022 further OECD guidance has been released
Barclays PLC 70
Financial Statement Notes
and draft legislation to implement the global minimum tax regime has been published by the UK Government. The UK
Government has stated that it intends to enact legislation in 2023 to apply for accounting periods beginning on or after 31
December 2023. The Group has reviewed the published OECD model rules and further guidance along with the draft UK
legislation and has been assessing the expected impact ahead of the implementation of the new regime. The Group will
review further guidance as well as new legislation expected to be released by governments implementing this new tax
regime and continue to assess the potential impact.
In the USA, the Inflation Reduction Act was enacted in August 2022. The Act does not include changes to the US corporate
income tax rate or to US international tax provisions included in the previously proposed Build Back Better Act but does
introduce a corporate alternative minimum tax on adjusted financial statements income, effective from 1 January 2023.
Further regulations and guidance are expected to be published in 2023, however the Group’s preliminary view is that the
alternative minimum tax is not expected to materially increase the Group’s effective tax rate. The Group will review future
guidance when it is published and continue to monitor other legislative developments and assess the potential impact.

It is Barclays' policy to declare and pay dividends on a semi-annual basis. The 2022 full year dividend of 5.0p per ordinary
share will be paid on 31 March 2023 to the shareholders on the Share Registrar on 24 February 2023. A half year dividend
for 2022 of 2.25p (H121: 2.0p) per ordinary share was paid on 16 September 2022.
The Directors have confirmed their intention initiate a share buyback of up to £0.5bn after the balance sheet date. The share
buyback is expected to commence in the first quarter of 2023. The financial statements for the year ended 31 December
2022 do not reflect the impact of the proposed share buyback, which will be accounted for as and when shares are
repurchased by the Company.

9. Retirement benefits
As at 31 December 2022, the Group’s IAS 19 net pension surplus across all schemes was £4.5bn (December 2021: £3.6bn).
The UK Retirement Fund (UKRF), which is the Group’s main scheme, had an IAS 19 net pension surplus of £4.7bn
(December 2021: £3.8bn). The movement for the UKRF was driven by payment of £294m deficit reduction contributions
and the unwind of senior fixed rate notes (covered below), partially offset by higher than expected inflation.
The latest triennial actuarial valuation of the UKRF with an effective date of 30 September 2022 has been completed. The
valuation showed a funding surplus of £2bn and a funding level of 108% (2021 update: £0.6bn surplus, funding level 102%).
The improvement was mainly due to £294m deficit reduction contributions, changes to views on life expectancy, and
inflationary returns on assets relative to liabilities being better than expected.
As the UKRF has a funding surplus the 2023 deficit reduction contribution (£286m), agreed as part of the 2019 triennial
actuarial valuation, is no longer required, and no recovery plan is needed.
During 2019 and 2020, the UKRF subscribed for non-transferable listed senior fixed rate notes for £1.25bn issued by entities
consolidated within the Group under IFRS 10. As a result of these transactions, the CET1 impact of the 2019 and 2020 deficit
contributions was deferred until 2023, 2024 and 2025 upon maturity of the notes. Barclays unwound these transactions in
December 2022. This resulted in a c.30bps reduction to the CET1 ratio being accelerated to Q4 2022 from 2023, 2024 and
2025.

Called up share capital comprises 15,871m (December 2021: 16,752m) ordinary shares of 25p each. The decrease is mainly
due to the repurchase of 931m shares as part of the share buybacks conducted in 2022, partially offset by an increase due to
the issuance of shares under employee share schemes.
Other equity instruments of £13,284m (December 2021: £12,259m) comprise AT1 securities issued by Barclays PLC. There
were three issuances and two redemptions in the period.
The AT1 securities are perpetual securities with no fixed maturity and are structured to qualify as AT1 instruments under
prevailing capital rules applicable as at the relevant issue date. AT1 securities are undated and are redeemable, at the option
of Barclays PLC, in whole on (i) the initial call date, or on any fifth anniversary after the initial call date or (ii) any day falling in
a named period ending on the initial reset date, or on any fifth anniversary after the initial reset date. In addition, the AT1
securities are redeemable, at the option of Barclays PLC, in whole in the event of certain changes in the tax or regulatory
treatment of the securities. Any redemptions require the prior consent of the PRA.
All Barclays PLC AT1 securities will be converted into ordinary shares of Barclays PLC, at a pre-determined price, should the
fully loaded CET1 ratio of the Group fall below 7%.

Appendix: Non-IFRS Performance Measures
The Group’s management believes that the non-IFRS performance measures included in this document provide valuable
information to the readers of the financial statements as they enable the reader to identify a more consistent basis for
comparing the businesses’ performance between financial periods, and provide more detail concerning the elements of
performance which the managers of these businesses are most directly able to influence or are relevant for an assessment of
the Group. They also reflect an important aspect of the way in which operating targets are defined and performance is
monitored by management.
However, any non-IFRS performance measures in this document are not a substitute for IFRS measures and readers should
