Tidjane Thiam, Chief Executive Officer of Credit Suisse, said: “We have now completed 9 quarters of our 12-quarter restructuring program. 2016, the first year of our program, was a year of deep strategic change and restructuring. 2017 was a year of stabilization and consolidation of the business, and we had planned 2018 to be a year of acceleration in our performance.
With these first quarter results, we got off to a good start in our third and final year of restructuring, and we are looking ahead to the future with confidence in our new business model and in our execution capabilities. Thanks to the progress made in 2016 and 2017, we are nearing pre-restructuring levels of absolute profit1, with a higher-quality, more capital-efficient business mix that can generate growing amounts of capital organically with higher capital velocity and a higher return on capital7 through the cycle, while consuming less risk capital per unit of income. Our focus on increasing our return on capital7, reducing capital consumption and controlling risk should allow us over time to increase the return of capital to shareholders.
1

We have maintained a relentless focus on efficiency and achieved our lowest quarterly cost base2 in the last 5 years, while increasing revenues – generating positive operating leverage.
We have reshaped Credit Suisse in less than three years, growing our less capital-consumptive Wealth Management and IBCM businesses8 and right-sizing our Markets activities9, while better aligning our skillset to service the needs of our UHNW clients. Today, approximately 80% of our Core profitability10 is generated by our Wealth Management and IBCM businesses8, up from 41% three years ago.
In our Wealth Management-related businesses SUB, IWM and APAC WM&C – after two years of progress in 2016 and 2017 – we continued in 1Q18 to generate client-driven, profitable1 growth. In 1Q15, these divisions generated combined adjusted* pre-tax income of CHF 798 million11. In 1Q18, we generated CHF 1.3 billion of adjusted* pre-tax income, an increase of 61% or approximately CHF 500 million in 3 years. More than half of this additional pre-tax income was generated in 1Q18 alone – highlighting the acceleration in our ability to deliver profitable, compliant growth.
NNA3 of CHF 14.4 billion reached their highest quarterly level in 7 years, and we ended 1Q18 with record AuM3 at significantly higher margins12. Growing both AuM and net margins12 is challenging and I believe this could only be achieved through our strategy, which is focused on leveraging our investment banking and asset management capabilities to meet the needs of our clients, particularly our UHNW clients.
Global Markets5 has delivered its strongest quarterly revenues since the start of the restructuring in 2016 with a particularly strong contribution from our ITS business, providing bespoke, quality solutions to our UHNW and institutional clients – a key aspect of our strategy. We have worked hard to make our overall performance less reliant on our more market dependent activities, which have been right-sized and de-risked. We now look at them as resilient when markets are not supportive and as a source of upside when the market environment is more constructive.
With our strong capital base, market-leading franchises and a business model intended to generate capital organically over time and at lower risk, we see significant opportunity to drive further profitable, quality growth. We believe Credit Suisse remains well positioned to deliver improved profitability and deliver growing shareholder value over time.”
Outlook
The global economy continues to show encouraging growth prospects across Asia, the US and Europe with inflation gradually creeping up as capacity constraints begin to tighten.
We expect markets and a wide range of asset classes to be exposed to periods of heightened volatility given ongoing geopolitical events, news flow around global trade negotiations and the outcome of monetary policy tightening. Client activity levels remain sensitive to these factors, specifically within our more market dependent activities.
We remain confident in the growth potential of our Wealth Management and IBCM businesses8, which generated approximately 80% of our Core profits10 in 1Q18 and stand to benefit from the growth of the global economy both in mature and developing markets across our geographies.

Divisional summaries
Swiss Universal Bank (SUB) delivered its best quarterly result since 2015 with adjusted* pre-tax income of CHF 554 million, up 15% year on year. Importantly, the business returned to top line growth, reflecting several growth initiatives and the strength of our Swiss franchise across private, corporate and institutional clients. Net revenues rose 3% year on year on an adjusted* basis, driven by increased transaction-based revenues and recurring commissions and fees. Adjusted* total operating expenses reached their lowest level since 2015 as we benefited from further efficiency gains. This resulted in an adjusted* cost/income ratio of well below 60% for the first time since the division was created. SUB generated an adjusted* return on regulatory capital of 18% for 1Q18, up 3 percentage points year on year. In Private Clients, NNA reached CHF 2.7 billion, the highest quarterly level to date, underscoring the strength of our “Bank for Entrepreneurs” and UHNW franchises. We continued to generate strong positive operating leverage as net revenues grew 5%– with contributions from all revenue categories – and total operating expenses decreased 5%, both on an adjusted* basis. At CHF 268 million, adjusted* pre-tax income in Private Clients rose 29% year on year. Corporate & Institutional Clients produced a 4% increase in adjusted* pre-tax income to CHF 286 million. Solid growth in institutional mandates and asset servicing was reflected by higher recurring commissions and fees. Higher transaction-based revenues were mainly driven by stronger client activity, especially in our foreign exchange business. In our Swiss investment banking business, we advised on several high-profile M&A, ECM and DCM transactions for Swiss corporates, thus strengthening our market leadership14.
International Wealth Management (IWM) had a strong start to the year with client engagement contributing to another step change in revenue, pre-tax income and NNA growth. Adjusted* pre-tax income grew 45% year on year to CHF 474 million as we continue to build momentum towards our 2018 target and in spite of currency headwinds in Swiss francs. Double-digit growth in net revenues reflected broad-based contributions across most of our businesses and the significant progress we have made in providing institutional-like solutions to higher net worth clients, enabled by capabilities in ITS. Total operating expenses remained stable due to our strict cost control. Adjusted* return on regulatory capital increased 9 percentage points to 35% in 1Q18. Private Banking delivered quality profit growth with adjusted* pre-tax income of CHF 382 million, up 46% from 1Q17. Adjusted* net revenues rose 14%, with increases across all major revenue categories, especially higher transaction-based revenues, as we proactively advised our clients in a more volatile environment. The successful implementation of our house view was reflected in net mandate sales of CHF 4.8 billion in 1Q18. Adjusted* net margin improved to 42 basis points, up 10 basis points year on year. NNA totaled CHF 5.5 billion at an annualized growth rate of 6% with strong inflows in emerging markets and Europe. Asset Management adjusted* pre-tax income increased 42% year on year to CHF 92 million, with a 7% increase in adjusted* net revenues – including a 10% rise in management fees – and stable adjusted* total operating expenses. Asset Management NNA were strong at CHF 9 billion, representing an annualized growth rate of 9%.

Asia Pacific (APAC) delivered a strong 1Q18 performance in our Wealth Management & Connected (WM&C) activities and our Markets business returned to profitability. Adjusted* pre-tax income was CHF 288 million, with a 12% increase in net revenues compared to 1Q17. Adjusted* return on regulatory capital improved to 21%. In APAC WM&C, we had our best quarterly performance to date, with adjusted* pre-tax income of CHF 256 million. Private Banking saw strong client activity, resulting in its highest quarterly revenues to date, up by 11% year on year, with increases in both transaction-based revenues and recurring commissions and fees. Adjusted* return on regulatory capital for WM&C rose by 5 percentage points year on year to 36%. NNA reached CHF 6.2 billion in 1Q18, supported by certain major client inflows and reflecting the close collaboration between our investment banking and private banking client coverage teams. AuM totaled CHF 199.1 billion at end-1Q18. Advisory, underwriting and financing revenues rose 17% year on year, reflecting stronger client activity – especially in M&A and equity underwriting. APAC Markets generated positive operating leverage with adjusted* pre-tax income reaching USD 34 million in 1Q18. Revenues grew 19% year on year in US dollars due to improved fixed income and equity sales and trading revenues. Adjusted* operating expenses decreased 6% in US dollars, notwithstanding higher commission expenses from higher transaction volumes.
Investment Banking & Capital Markets (IBCM) generated net revenues of USD 559 million, down 8% year on year, in a quarter characterized by muted client activity. Fewer M&A closings and lower debt underwriting revenues were partly offset by higher equity underwriting revenues due to increased IPO activity. Despite a challenging backdrop, we were able to achieve a #1 rank in leveraged finance15 and a top 5 rank in IPOs15 in 1Q18, an indication of the quality of our franchise and our teams. Adjusted* total operating expenses totaled USD 464 million and adjusted* pre-tax income was USD 94 million for 1Q18. IBCM generated an adjusted* return on regulatory capital of 12%, with significantly higher returns in the Americas of 21%. Global advisory and underwriting revenues were down 2% year on year, outperforming the industry-wide fee pool15. Looking forward, our pipeline is strong and is larger than last year but remains dependent on constructive market conditions.
Global Markets (GM) achieved adjusted* pre-tax income of USD 357 million in 1Q18, up 6% from a very strong 1Q17. This result was driven by continued momentum across the franchise, with a particularly strong contribution from our ITS platform. Net revenues totaled USD 1.6 billion, up 2% from the strong prior-year period. This increase was driven by higher Equities revenues that are beginning to benefit from investments in the business, a rebound in volatility and increased collaboration from landmark deals, particularly in equity derivatives. Fixed Income revenues increased year on year, including robust performance in Securitized Products. Additionally, we advanced to the number one rank and gained share15 in our leveraged finance underwriting franchise despite the significant decline in industry-wide underwriting volumes, highlighting the strength of the franchise. Adjusted* operating expenses16 declined 3% excluding the adverse impacts from foreign exchange moves and US-GAAP changes, reflecting continued progress on efficiency initiatives.
Conclusion
Our first quarter 2018 results demonstrate that we have had a strong start to our third and final year of restructuring. We are nearing our pre-restructuring levels of profit1 but with a higher-quality, more capital-efficient business mix that is intended to generate capital organically at lower levels of absolute risk.
As we continue to allocate more capital towards our Wealth Management and IBCM businesses8 and leverage our strong investment banking capabilities, we expect these benefits to compound over time and drive higher returns for the Group.

The results of Credit Suisse Group comprise the results of our six reporting segments, including the Strategic Resolution Unit, and the Corporate Center. Core results exclude revenues and expenses from our Strategic Resolution Unit.
As we move ahead with the implementation of our strategy, it is important to measure the progress achieved by our underlying business performance in a consistent manner. To achieve this, we will focus our analyses on adjusted results.
Adjusted results referred to in this Media Release are non-GAAP financial measures that exclude goodwill impairment and certain other revenues and expenses included in our reported results. Management believes that adjusted results provide a useful presentation of our operating results for the purposes of assessing our Group and divisional performance consistently over time, on a basis that excludes items that management does not consider representative of our underlying performance. We will report quarterly on the same adjusted* basis for the Group, Core and divisional results until end-2018 to allow investors to monitor our progress in implementing our strategy, given the material restructuring charges we are likely to incur and other items which are not reflective of our underlying performance but are to be borne in the interim period. Tables in the Appendix of this Media Release provide the detailed reconciliation between reported and adjusted results for the Group, Core businesses and the individual divisions.
Footnotes

On the basis of the current analysis of the base erosion and anti-abuse tax (BEAT) regime, we continue to regard it as more likely than not that the Group will not be subject to this regime in 2018. However, there are significant uncertainties in the application of BEAT and this interpretation will be subject to review once further guidance has been issued by the US Department of Treasury.

Important information
This Media Release contains select information from the full 1Q18 Earnings Release and 1Q18 Results Presentation Slides that Credit Suisse believes is of particular interest to media professionals. The complete 1Q18 Earnings Release and 1Q18 Results Presentation Slides, which have been distributed simultaneously, contain more comprehensive information about our results and operations for the reporting quarter, as well as important information about our reporting methodology and some of the terms used in these documents. The complete 1Q18 Earnings Release and 1Q18 Results Presentation Slides are not incorporated by reference into this Media Release.
Credit Suisse has not finalized its 1Q18 Financial Report and Credit Suisse’s independent registered public accounting firm has not completed its review of the condensed consolidated financial statements (unaudited) for the period. Accordingly, the financial information contained in this Media Release is subject to completion of quarter-end procedures, which may result in changes to that information.
Information referenced in this Media Release, whether via website links or otherwise, is not incorporated into this Media Release.
Our cost savings program is measured using adjusted operating cost base at constant FX rates. “Adjusted operating cost base at constant FX rates” includes adjustments as made in all our disclosures for restructuring expenses, major litigation expenses and a goodwill impairment taken in 4Q15 as well as adjustments for debit valuation adjustments (DVA) related volatility, FX and for certain accounting changes (which had not been in place at the launch of the cost savings program). Adjustments for certain accounting changes have been restated to reflect grossed up expenses in the Corporate Center and, starting in 1Q18, also include adjustments for changes from ASU 2014-09 “Revenue from Contracts with Customers”, which is described further in our 1Q18 Earnings Release. Adjustments for FX apply unweighted currency exchange rates, i.e., a straight line average of monthly rates, consistently for the periods under review.

Regulatory capital is calculated as the worst of 10% of RWA and 3.5% of leverage exposure. Return on regulatory capital is calculated using (adjusted) income/(loss) after tax and assumes a tax rate of 30% and capital allocated based on the worst of 10% of average RWA and 3.5% of average leverage exposure. For the Markets business within the APAC division and for the Global Markets and Investment Banking & Capital Markets divisions, return on regulatory capital is based on US dollar denominated numbers. Adjusted return on regulatory capital is calculated using adjusted results, applying the same methodology to calculate return on regulatory capital.
Return on tangible equity attributable to shareholders, a non-GAAP financial measure, is based on tangible equity attributable to shareholders, which is calculated by deducting goodwill and other intangible assets from total equity attributable to shareholders as presented in our balance sheet. Management believes that the return on tangible equity attributable to shareholders is meaningful as it allows consistent measurement of the performance of businesses without regard to whether the businesses were acquired. For end-1Q18, 1Q17 and 1Q16, tangible equity excluded goodwill of CHF 4,677 million, CHF 4,742 million and CHF 4,831 million, respectively, and other intangible assets of CHF 212 million, CHF 223 million and CHF 202 million, respectively from total equity attributable to shareholders of CHF 42,540 million, CHF 41,902 million and CHF 41,702 million, respectively, as presented in our balance sheet.
We may not achieve all of the expected benefits of our strategic initiatives. Factors beyond our control, including but not limited to the market and economic conditions, changes in laws, rules or regulations and other challenges discussed in our public filings, could limit our ability to achieve some or all of the expected benefits of these initiatives.
In particular, the terms “Estimate”, “Illustrative”, “Ambition”, “Objective”, “Outlook” and “Goal” are not intended to be viewed as targets or projections, nor are they considered to be Key Performance Indicators. All such estimates, illustrations, ambitions, objectives, outlooks and goals are subject to a large number of inherent risks, assumptions and uncertainties, many of which are completely outside of our control. These risks, assumptions and uncertainties include, but are not limited to, general market conditions, market volatility, interest rate volatility and levels, global and regional economic conditions, political uncertainty, changes in tax policies, regulatory changes, changes in levels of client activity as a result of any of the foregoing and other factors. Accordingly, this information should not be relied on for any purpose. We do not intend to update these estimates, illustrations, ambitions, objectives, outlooks or goals.
In preparing this media release, management has made estimates and assumptions that affect the numbers presented. Actual results may differ. Annualized numbers do not take account variations in operating results, seasonality and other factors and may not be indicative of actual, full-year results. Figures throughout this media release may also be subject to rounding adjustments. All opinions and views constitute judgments as of the date of writing without regard to the date on which the reader may receive or access the information. This information is subject to change at any time without notice and we do not intend to update this information.
As of January 1, 2013, Basel III was implemented in Switzerland along with the Swiss “Too Big to Fail” legislation and regulations thereunder (in each case, subject to certain phase-in periods). As of January 1, 2015, the Bank for International Settlements (BIS) leverage ratio framework, as issued by the Basel Committee on Banking Supervision (BCBS), was implemented in Switzerland by FINMA. Our related disclosures are in accordance with our interpretation of such requirements, including relevant assumptions. Changes in the interpretation of these requirements in Switzerland or in any of our assumptions or estimates could result in different numbers from those shown in this media release.
Unless otherwise noted, leverage exposure is based on the BIS leverage ratio framework and consists of period-end balance sheet assets and pre- scribed regulatory adjustments. The look-through tier 1 leverage ratio and CET1 leverage ratio are calculated as look-through BIS tier 1 capital and CET1 capital, respectively, divided by period end leverage exposure. Swiss leverage ratios are measured on the same period-end basis as the leverage exposure for the BIS leverage ratio.
Margin calculations for APAC are aligned with the performance metrics of the Private Banking business and its related assets under management within the Wealth Management & Connected business in APAC. Assets under management and net new assets for APAC relate to the Private Banking business within the Wealth Management & Connected business.
Net margin is calculated by dividing income before taxes by average assets under management. Adjusted net margins is calculated using adjusted results, applying the same methodology to calculate net margin.
Investors and others should note that we announce material information (including quarterly earnings releases and financial reports) to the investing public using press releases, SEC and Swiss ad hoc filings, our website and public conference calls and webcasts. We intend to also use our Twitter account @creditsuisse (https://twitter.com/creditsuisse) to excerpt key messages from our public disclosures, including earnings releases. We may retweet such messages through certain of our regional Twitter accounts, including @csschweiz (https://twitter.com/csschweiz) and @csapac (https://twitter.com/csapac).

These factors include:
the ability to maintain sufficient liquidity and access capital markets;
market volatility and interest rate fluctuations and developments affecting interest rate levels;

the effects of, and changes in, fiscal, monetary, exchange rate, trade and tax policies, as well as currency fluctuations;
political and social developments, including war, civil unrest or terrorist activity;
the possibility of foreign exchange controls, expropriation, nationalization or confiscation of assets in countries in which we conduct our operations;
operational factors such as systems failure, human error, or the failure to implement procedures properly;
the risk of cyber attacks on our business or operations;
actions taken by regulators with respect to our business and practices and possible resulting changes to our business organization, practices and policies in countries in which we conduct our operations;
the effects of changes in laws, regulations or accounting or tax standards, policies or practices in countries in which we conduct our operations;
the potential effects of proposed changes in our legal entity structure;
competition or changes in our competitive position in geographic and business areas in which we conduct our operations;
the ability to retain and recruit qualified personnel;

As of January 1, 2015, the Bank for International Settlements (BIS) leverage ratio framework, as issued by the Basel Committee on Banking Supervision (BCBS), was implemented in Switzerland by FINMA. Our related disclosures are in accordance with our interpretation of such requirements, including relevant assumptions. Changes in the interpretation of these requirements in Switzerland or in any of our assumptions or estimates could result in different numbers from those shown in this presentation. Unless otherwise noted, leverage exposure is based on the BIS leverage ratio framework and consists of period-end balance sheet assets and prescribed regulatory adjustments. The look-through tier 1 leverage ratio and CET1 leverage ratio are calculated as look-through BIS tier 1 capital and CET1 capital, respectively, divided by period-end leverage exposure. Swiss leverage ratios are measured on the same period-end basis as the leverage exposure for the BIS leverage ratio.SourcesCertain material in this presentation has been prepared by Credit Suisse on the basis of publicly available information, internally developed data and other third-party sources believed to be reliable.

Provided below is a reconciliation of our adjusted results to the most directly comparable US GAAP measures.    IBCM in USD mn            GM in USD mn            1Q18  4Q17  1Q17  2017  2016    1Q18  4Q17  1Q17  2017  2016  Net revenues reported  559  573  608  2,182  2,001    1,642  1,179  1,615  5,662  5,575  Fair value on own debt  -  -  -  -  -    -  -  -  -  -  Real estate gains  -  -  -  -  -    -  -  -  -  -  (Gains)/losses on business sales  -  -  -  -  -    -  -  -  -  -  Net revenues adjusted  559  573  608  2,182  2,001    1,642  1,179  1,615  5,662  5,575  Provision for credit losses  1  (1)  6  31  20    4  8  5  32  (4)  Total operating expenses reported  496  466  453  1,775  1,713    1,325  1,371  1,292  5,172  5,522  Goodwill impairment  -  -  -  -  -    -  -  -  -  -  Restructuring expenses  (32)  (14)  (2)  (43)  (29)    (44)  (73)  (20)  (154)  (220)  Major litigation provisions  -  -  -  -  -    -  -  -  -  (7)  Expenses related to business sales  -  -  -  -  -    -  (8)  -  (8)  -  Total operating expenses adjusted  464  452  451  1,732  1,684    1,281  1,290  1,272  5,010  5,295  Pre-tax income/(loss) reported  62  108  149  376  268    313  (200)  318  458  57  Total adjustments  32  14  2  43  29    44  81  20  162  227  Pre-tax income/(loss) adjusted  94  122  151  419  297    357  (119)  338  620  284    Corp.

 Notes  Throughout the presentation rounding differences may occurUnless otherwise noted, all CET1 ratio, Tier-1 leverage ratio, risk-weighted assets and leverage exposure figures shown in this presentation are as of the end of the respective period and on a “look-through” basisGross and net margins are shown in basis pointsGross margin = adj. net revenues annualized / average AuM; net margin = adj. pre-tax income annualized / average AuMMandates penetration reflects advisory and discretionary mandates as percentage of total AuM  General notes  Abbreviations  Specific notes  * Our cost savings program is measured using an adjusted operating cost base at constant FX rates. “Adjusted operating cost base at constant FX rates” include adjustments as made in all our disclosures for restructuring expenses, major litigation provisions, expenses related to business sales and a goodwill impairment taken in 4Q15 as well as adjustments for debit valuation adjustments (DVA) related volatility, FX and for certain accounting changes (which had not been in place at the launch of the cost savings program). Adjustments for certain accounting changes have been restated to reflect grossed up expenses in the Corporate Center and, starting in 1Q18, also include adjustments for changes from ASU 2014-09 “Revenue from Contracts with Customers”, which is described further in our 1Q18 Earnings Release. Adjustments for FX apply unweighted currency exchange rates, i.e., a straight line average of monthly rates, consistently for the periods under review. † Regulatory capital is calculated as the worst of 10% of RWA and 3.5% of leverage exposure. Return on regulatory capital is calculated using (adjusted) income / (loss) after tax and assumes a tax rate of 30% and capital allocated based on the worst of 10% of average RWA and 3.5% of average leverage exposure. For the Markets business within the APAC division and for the Global Markets and Investment Banking & Capital Markets divisions, return on regulatory capital is based on US dollar denominated numbers. Adjusted return on regulatory capital is calculated using adjusted results, applying the same methodology to calculate return on regulatory capital.‡ Return on tangible equity is based on tangible equity attributable to shareholders, a non-GAAP financial measure, which is calculated by deducting goodwill and other intangible assets from total equity attributable to shareholders as presented in our balance sheet. Management believes that the return on tangible equity attributable to shareholders is meaningful as it allows consistent measurement of the performance of businesses without regard to whether the businesses were acquired. For end-1Q18, tangible equity excluded goodwill of CHF 4,667 mn and other intangible assets of CHF 212 mn from total shareholders’ equity of CHF 42,540 mn as presented in our balance sheet. For end-1Q17, tangible equity excluded goodwill of CHF 4,831 mn and other intangible assets of CHF 202 mn from total shareholders’ equity of CHF 41,702 mn as presented in our balance sheet. For end-1Q16, tangible equity excluded goodwill of CHF 4,688 mn and other intangible assets of CHF 186 mn from total shareholders’ equity of CHF 44,997 mn as presented in our balance sheet. Adjusted return on tangible equity is calculated using adjusted results, applying the same methodology to calculate return on tangible equity. Total adjustments for each period were tax-effected to calculate an adjusted shareholders’ equity using tax rates of 26%, 29% and 18% in 1Q18, 1Q17 and 1Q16, respectively.   Adj. = Adjusted; Adv. = Advisory; AM = Asset Management; APAC = Asia Pacific; AuM = Assets under Management; BCBS = Basel Committee on Banking Supervision; BIS = Bank for International Settlements; bps = basis points; CAGR = Compound Annual Growth Rate; CET1 = Common Equity Tier 1; C&IC = Corporate & Institutional Clients; Corp.
