Itaú CorpBanca Announces

First Quarter 2016 Financial Report

Santiago, Chile, May 13, 2016. ITAÚ CORPBANCA (NYSE:ITCB; SSE: ITAUCORP) announced today its financial results for the first quarter ended March 31, 2016. Itaú CorpBanca is the entity resulting from the merger of Banco Itaú Chile (BIC) with and into CorpBanca on April 1, 2016. After the merger, the surviving entity's name changed to "Itaú CorpBanca". The legal acquisition of BIC by CorpBanca is deemed a reverse acquisition pursuant to standard No. 3 of the International Financial Reporting Standards (or IFRS). BIC (the legal acquiree) is considered the accounting acquirer and CorpBanca (the legal acquirer) is considered the accounting acquiree for accounting purposes. In this context, CorpBanca's 1Q 2016's results presented here will not be part of Itaú CorpBanca's historical financial results, because BIC is deemed to be the predecessor entity.

In light of the foregoing, this report is based on both CorpBanca's and BIC's unaudited financial statements prepared in accordance with the Compendium of Accounting Norms of the Superintendence of Banks and Financial Institutions (Superintendencia de Bancos e Instituciones Financieras, or the SBIF) pursuant to Chilean Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (Chilean GAAP) which conform with the international standards of accounting and financial reporting issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (IASB) to the extent that there are not specific instructions or regulations to the contrary by the SBIF. Based on this and for the purposes of analysis, we have prepared a pro forma for balance sheet but not for results since CorpBanca's 1Q 2016's results presented here will not be part of Itaú CorpBanca 2016's results but part of the equity of the merged bank.

Solely for the convenience of the reader, U.S. dollar amounts (US$) in this report have been translated from Chilean nominal peso (Ch$) at our internal exchange rate as of March 31, 2016 of Ch$667.08 per U.S. dollar. Industry data contained herein has been obtained from the information provided by the SBIF. Additionally "Year over Year" (YoY) states for the comparison between 1Q 2016 and 1Q 2015 and "Quarter over Quarter" (QoQ) states for the comparison between 1Q 2016 and 4Q 2015;

CorpBanca Financial Highlights
 
In 1Q 2016, Net Income attributable to shareholders totalled Ch$26.1 billion (-Ch$0.08 per share or US$0.17 per ADR), decreasing YoY and QoQ. Increase in provisions for loan losses due to downgrades of corporate clients in the energy sector both in Chile and Colombia and new regulatory requirements for standard credit-provisioning model on residential mortgage; a negative translation effect of the Colombian peso (COP) to Ch$ of our Colombian subsidiary and the negative impact of higher monetary policy interest rates both in Chile and Colombia are the main drivers for the first quarter losses.
 
Total loans1 reached Ch$14.6 trillion as of March 31, 2016, increasing 1.2% YoY and decreasing 1.6% QoQ. This trend is highly impacted by the negative translation effect COP/Ch$. When considered the portfolios of Chile and Colombia separately in each local currency, total loans in Chile increased 2.7% YoY and decreased 1.5% QoQ and total loans in Colombia decreased 1.5% YoY and 1.8% QoQ. Last quarters have shown a slower pace, though the strategy has been to focus only in segments with a higher risk-adjusted profitability.
 
Net operating profit before loan losses decreased by 29.6% YoY and by 35.0% QoQ. In 1Q 2016 we achieved an annualized net interest margin (NIM) of 3.19%, higher than the 3.09% in 1Q 2015 and lower than 3.74% in 4Q 2015. This decrease in NIM is mainly the result of the aforementioned devaluation of the COP and negative impacts of a higher monetary interest rate policy both in Chile and Colombia. This lower NIM along with a mild commercial activity of our Chilean distribution desk with a lower benefit from regular loan portfolios sales impacted our Net operating profit before loan losses.
 
Net provisions for loan losses increased by 163.2% YoY and 149.9% QoQ, mainly as the result of the downgrade of corporate clients in the energy sector, including gas&oil, both in Chile and Colombia.
 
Total operating expenses increased less than inflation YoY (4.1%) and decreased by 16.3% QoQ. This decrease is mainly due to the Ch$21.8 billion fine imposed by the SBIF in 4Q 2015 and also pre-merger expenses and special bonuses of the period.
   
BIC Financial Highlights
 
In 1Q 2016, Net Income attributable to shareholders totalled Ch$6.1 billion (Ch$2,863 per share), decreasing by 56.1% YoY and by 83.7%QoQ. Increase in provisions for loan losses due to new regulatory requirements for standard credit-provisioning model on residential mortgage loans and lower treasury gains.
 
Total loans2 reached Ch$6.9 trillion as of March 31, 2016, increasing 10.6% YoY and 0.7% QoQ.
 
Net operating profit before loan losses decreased by 3.9% YoY and by 23.9% QoQ. In 1Q 2016 we achieved an annualized net interest margin (NIM) of 2.89%, higher than the 2.71% in 1Q 2015 and than 2.81% in 4Q 2015. This increase in NIM is mainly the result of a higher variation in the quarter of the Unidad de Fomento (indexed unit of account, "UF").
 
Net provisions for loan losses increased by 40.2% YoY and 81.7% QoQ, mainly as a result of new regulatory requirements for standard credit-provisioning model on residential mortgage.
 
Total operating expenses increased by 8.3% YoY and by 7.5% QoQ. This increase is mainly due to the increase in bonuses and severances.

I) Consolidated Financial Performance Review
The following table sets forth the components of CorpBanca's and BIC's consolidated net income for the quarters ended March 31, 2016 and 2015 and December 31, 2015.
The negative shareholders' net income in CorpBanca is mainly explained by higher provisions for loan losses both in Chile and Colombia. The lower net operating profit before loan losses primarily due to negative impact in fiscal hedge due to the appreciation of the Ch$ against the US$ as well as lower fees on structured corporate loan due to economic slowdown is partly offset by lower income tax expense.

II) Unconsolidated Financial Performance Review: Chile and Colombia
The following table presents CorpBanca's results in Chile and Colombia separately for 1Q 2016. The financial results of CorpBanca Chile include some expenses associated with our Colombian operations which have to be excluded from our Chile's book in order to observe Chile's stand-alone results. For these purposes, we have made two adjustments, namely: (i) amortization of the intangible assets generated in the Banco Santander Colombia's

acquisition that affected operating expenses in Chile; and (ii) the impact of our fiscal hedge3, which is a consequence of a management's decision to hedge the impact of the volatility of the US$/Ch$ exchange rate in the net income attributable to shareholders, through its effect on taxable income related to the revaluation/devaluation of our taxable investment in Colombia.
The adjusted 1Q 2016 results present, in our opinion, the closest approximation of CorpBanca Chilean operation on a stand-alone basis:

These adjustments to the Chilean operation to present it on a stand-alone basis are related to:
i.
Ch$21.6 billion of fiscal hedge in US$.
ii.
Ch$2.6 billion of intangible assets amortization and integration costs in Colombia.
Taking into account these factors, our estimated result for our stand-alone operation in Chile is -Ch$21.7 billion of Net Income in 1Q 2016.

Consolidated Net Interest Income
In 1Q 2016 CorpBanca net interest income totalled Ch$134.7 billion, increasing 7.6% YoY and decreasing 15.0% QoQ.
The YoY increase was mainly the result of a higher quarterly UF variation in Chile (+0.71% in 1Q 2016 vs. -0.02% in 1Q 2015).
The QoQ decrease was due to a negative translation effect COP/Ch$4 of our Colombian subsidiary (Ch$0.2222 per 1COP in 1Q 2016 vs. Ch$0.2266 per 1COP in 4Q 2015) as well as a lower UF variation (+0.71% in 1Q 2016 vs. +1.45% in 4Q 2015). When considered the net interest income of CorpBanca Colombia in its local currency under Chilean GAAP, it increased 12.9% YoY.
The aforementioned factors negatively impacted our net interest margin (net interest income divided by average interest- earning assets), that decreased to 3.19% in 1Q 2016 from 3.74% in 4Q 2015.
The gap between assets and liabilities indexed to the UF was approximately Ch$980.8 billion in 1Q 2016, resulting in an impact of Ch$9.8 billion for each 100 bp of variation of the UF. This quarterly impact has maintained stable between Ch$7.0 billion and Ch$9.0 billion in the last 12-month (LTM).






3 For tax purposes, the "Servicio de Impuestos Internos" (Chilean IRSInternal Revenue Service (Servicio de Impuestos Internos) considers that our investment in Colombia is denominated in US dollar. As we have to translate the valuation of this investment from US dollar to Chilean peso in our book each month, the volatility of the exchange rate generates a significant impact on the net income attributable to shareholders. In order to limit that effect, the management decided to hedge it with a derivative that has to be analyzed along with income tax expenses.
4 Consolidated financial statements for CorpBanca use the Chilean peso as functional currency. CorpBanca Colombia financial statements are translated from Colombian peso to Chilean peso for consolidation purposes, being only the exchange rate variation in its income statement accounts reflected in Year to Date (YTD) results. CorpBanca has decided not to hedge this translation risk effect in profit and loss statement (P&L) as long as net income from Colombian operations is retained as primarily source of capitalization. Since we have decided to retain earnings to support future grow in Colombia, an FX hedge for financial statement balances is not efficient as it would be if there were a cash flow coming from our Colombian subsidiary. CorpBanca's management revaluates this strategy on an annual basis.

These trends are explained by lower fees on high complexity structuring project finance and to loans syndication structured in CorpBanca and lower investment banking and corporate credit structuring fees both due to economic slowdown.

Net provisions for loan losses in CorpBanca increased 127.9% YoY and 113.1% QoQ. The decrease was mainly due to downgrades of corporate clients in the energy sector both in Chile and Colombia and new regulatory requirements for standard credit-provisioning model on residential mortgage loans in Chile.
Net provisions for loan losses in BIC increased 27.2% YoY and 33.6% QoQ mainly driven by new regulatory requirements for standard credit-provisioning model on residential mortgage loans.
Under IAS 8 "Accounting Policies, Changes in Accounting Estimates and Errors", 4Q 2015 provisions for loan losses in CorpBanca and BIC did not include provisions related to the new SBIF's standard credit-provisioning model for residential mortgage loans that is effective in Chile since January 2016. Accordingly to a "change in accounting estimate" under IFRS the impacts have to be recognized prospectively and directly in the P&L of the period in which they apply. Therefore, the new regulation impacted as a one-timer expense in January 2016 for approximately Ch$4.9 billion in CorpBanca that management estimates will be reduced to half by the end of 2016 and in BIC, Ch$3.2 billion.
The chart below illustrates CorpBanca consolidated total loan loss allowances / total loans ratio and BIC total loan loss allowances / total loans ratio compare to the industry average in Chile.

It is important to note that the regulatory criterion that we have to follow for the Colombian loan portfolio for consolidation purposes only is to apply the most conservative provisioning rule between Chile and Colombia. This results in higher reserves in Chile for the Colombian portfolio, which are even higher than the expected incurred loss for our Colombian portfolio. Quarterly impacts of this regulatory criterion are enhanced when changes in provisions for loan losses under Colombian regulation are more conservative than under Chilean regulation.
According to the SBIF CorpBanca has maintained, in its Chilean operations, one of the lowest credit risk indices (total loan loss allowances / total loans) in the Chilean banking industry over the past five years, consistent with one of CorpBanca core pillars related to high quality loan portfolio.
The following chart compares CorpBanca and BIC consolidated non-performing loan (NPL) ratio with the industry's average in Chile. CorpBanca´s high asset quality was maintained following the acquisition of Banco Santander Colombia in May 2012 and Helm Bank in August 2013.

Executive Summary
     
 
 


* According to SBIF criteria for NPLs statistics, prior to October 2015, statistics for NPLs were presented on an unconsolidated basis, though they did not include local nor foreign subsidiaries' NPLs. Nevertheless, CorpBanca did include in its reports NPLs for CorpBanca Colombia using the same criteria, i.e., on an unconsolidated basis (only the banks in Chile and Colombia). These SBIF criteria changed in October 2015, though since 4Q 2015 statistics for NPLs are presented on a consolidated basis. In this context, also since 4Q 2015, CorpBanca's NPLs not only include CorpBanca Colombia's NPLs but also our New York Branch, Helm Bank Panamá and other local subsidiaries' NPLs when applicable. Therefore, 4Q 2015 NPLs and NPL ratios for CorpBanca and the Chilean Banking Industry are not fully comparable to prior quarter.

CorpBanca's operating expenses increased by 4.1%YoY, lower than inflation, and decreased by 16.3% QoQ. This QoQ decrease is mainly due to the Ch$21.8 billion fine imposed by the SBIF which, as instructed by the SBIF, had to be fully recognized as an administrative expense in 4Q 2015.
Regarding BIC, operating expenses increased by 8.3%YoY and by 7.5% QoQ due to the increase in bonuses and severances related to the merger process.

Consolidated Tax Expenses
On a YoY basis, tax expenses' increase is explained by higher tax rates and a higher Ch$ depreciation that results in a higher tax expense over our investment in Colombia which despite of been made in COP, for tax purposes is considered to be in US dollars (as detailed in footnote 3 on page 5) this impact is offset by the losses on the fiscal hedge as previously mentioned on page 6, which at the same time lead to lower tax expenses.
On a YoY basis, tax expenses' increase is explained by higher tax rates partly offset by a higher CLP appreciation that results in a lower tax expense over our investment in Colombia which despite of been made in COP, for tax purposes is considered to be in US dollars (as detailed in footnote 2 on page 4) this impact is offset by the losses on the fiscal hedge as previously mentioned on page 7.
BIC income tax expenses decreased 74.0% YoY QoQ and increased 5.8% QoQ.

Contingent loans under IFRS are not considered part of the loan portfolio.
Our total pro forma loan portfolio increased by 4.0% YoY and decreased by 0.9%QoQ. These trends are highly impacted by the negative translation effect COP/Ch$ for consolidation purposes. When considered separately our Chilean and Colombian loan portfolios in their relevant currencies, total loans in Chile increased 5.9% YoY and decreased 0.7% QoQ and total loans in Colombia increased by 7.6% YoY and 1.2% QoQ. Last quarters have shown a slower pace, though the strategy has been to focus only in segments with a higher risk-adjusted profitability.
When analyzing the loan portfolio by segments, retail lending in Chile increased by 4.4% YoY and by 0.1% QoQ, reflecting the impact of a significant lower pace in residential mortgage loans, where the bank continue to focus on loans with loan-to-values (LTV) below 80% at origination. In Colombia, retail loans increased 8.1% YoY and 0.3% QoQ when measured in COP. Wholesale lending in Chile increased 6.5% YoY and decreased 0.9% QoQ and in Colombia increased 7.4% YoY and increased 1.6% QoQ in its local currency reflecting the current economic environment. These trends show that our loan portfolio grew in all segments in Colombia in 2016, however, at a slower pace when compared to 2015.
According to the SBIF, our pro forma market share in Chile, on an unconsolidated basis, was 12.1% in March 31, 2016, reflecting a decrease of 54 bp compared to March 31, 2015. In Colombia, the current economic environment has impacted our market share more than the ongoing integration process related to the Helm Bank merger, reaching 6.1% as of December 30, 2015, according to the Colombian Financial Superintendence (Superintenencia Financiera de Colombia or SFC).

Management Discussion & Analysis
 
Executive Summary
     

Investment instruments are classified in two categories: held-to-maturity investments and instruments available-for-sale. On a consolidated basis, we currently have a small portfolio of held-to-maturity investments, allocated in Colombia. All other financial investment securities are classified available-for-sale. Investment securities are initially recognized at cost, which includes transaction costs. Securities available-for-sale at each subsequent period-end are valued at their fair value according to market prices or based on valuation models. Unrealized gains or losses arising from changes in the fair value are charged or credited to equity accounts.
In addition to regulatory liquidity risk controls, we have also set internal liquidity limits, in order to safeguard the bank's payment capacity in the event of illiquid conditions. We have also established a minimum for our securities portfolio that enables cash flows to be quickly generated either through liquidation or because they can be used as collateral for new funding sources. As part of our policy, we have developed two internal liquidity models:
1.
Minimum Liquidity Requirement: In order to ensure that the bank will permanently hold enough liquid assets to meet all payments derived from obligations to third parties over the next three days, we set a limit on the minimum amount of liquid assets to be held on a daily basis.
2.
Liquidity Coverage Ratio (LCR): We seek to ensure that, even under adverse conditions, we have access to the funds necessary to cover customers' needs and maturing liabilities. The purpose of the LCR model is to evaluate our funding capacity assuming a hypothetical scenario of illiquidity. The LCR is based on a stress scenario which assumes that an unusually large proportion of liabilities would be withdrawn over the next 20 days according with a stressed volatility and liquid assets will have to cover excess requirements.

Our funding strategy is to optimize all sources of funding in accordance with their costs, their availability and our general asset and liability management strategy. The funding structure in the period of time analyzed in this report remained stable; the limited changes are mostly related to debt maturity profile and debt placements.
During the last twelve months CorpBanca successfully placed senior notes in the local market. Between July and September 2015, issued Ch$3.5 billion and UF 1.64 billion senior notes in local market, to refinance part of debt maturity profile and fund loan growth. Additionally, on September 2015, CorpBanca prepaid a syndicated loan facility for US$490 million due on October 2015 and obtained a new facility for US$315 million due in April 2017 in line with our strategy to diversify funding sources, strengthen liquidity and financed commercial activities.

Additionally, it is important to note that Itaú CorpBanca successfully placed a senior bond in the local market in April 2016 being its first issuance after the merger in the following terms:

(2) PDL: Past due loans; all installments that are more than 90 days overdue.
(3) NPL: Non-performing loans; full balance of loans with one installment 90 days or more overdue.
(4) According to SBIF criteria for NPLs statistics, prior to October 2015, statistics for NPLs were presented on an unconsolidated basis, though they did not include local nor foreign subsidiaries' NPLs. Nevertheless, CorpBanca did include in its reports NPLs for CorpBanca Colombia using the same criteria, i.e., on an unconsolidated basis (only the banks in Chile and Colombia). These SBIF criteria changed in October 2015, though since 4Q 2015, statistics for NPLs are presented on a consolidated basis. In this context, also since 4Q 2015, CorpBanca's NPLs not only include CorpBanca Colombia's NPLs but also our New York Branch, Helm Bank Panamá and other local subsidiaries' NPLs when applicable. Therefore, 4Q 2015 NPLs and NPL ratios for CorpBanca and the Chilean Banking Industry are not fully comparable to prior quarters.

Executive Summary
     


CAUTION REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS
Certain statements in this Press Release may be considered as forward-looking statements. Forward-looking information is often, but not always, identified by the use of words such as "anticipate", "believe", "expect", "plan", "intend", "forecast", "target", "project", "may", "will", "should", "could", "estimate", "predict" or similar words suggesting future outcomes or language suggesting an outlook. These forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to, statements regarding expected benefits and synergies from the recent merger of Banco Itaú Chile with and into CorpBanca, the integration process of both banks, the expected timing of completion of the transaction, anticipated future financial and operating performance and results, including estimates for growth, as well as risks and benefits of changes in the laws of the countries we operate, including the Tax Reform in Chile.
These statements are based on the current expectations of Itaú CorpBanca's management. There are risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from the forward-looking statements included in this communication. For example, (1) problems that may arise in successfully integrating the businesses of Banco Itaú Chile and CorpBanca, which may result in the combined company not operating as effectively and efficiently as expected; (2) the combined company may be unable to achieve cost-cutting synergies or it may take longer than expected to achieve those synergies; (3) the credit ratings of the combined company or its subsidiaries may be different from what Itaú CorpBanca or its controlling shareholders expect; (4) the business of Itaú CorpBanca may suffer as a result of uncertainty surrounding the merger; (5) the industry may be subject to future regulatory or legislative actions that could adversely affect Itaú CorpBanca; and (6) Itaú CorpBanca may be adversely affected by other economic, business, and/or competitive factors.
Forward-looking statements and information are based on current beliefs as well as assumptions made by and information currently available to Itaú CorpBanca's management.
