Incorporation by Reference

 

The information contained in this Report on Form 6-K, including the information set forth in Exhibit No. 1, but excluding the information set forth in Exhibit No. 2 and Exhibit No. 3 shall be incorporated by reference in the prospectuses relating to the Registrant’s securities contained in the Registrant’s Registration Statements on Form F-3 (File Nos. 333-283007 and 333-283008), as such prospectuses may be amended or supplemented from time to time.

 

The financial information for the three months ended December 31, 2024 has not been audited or reviewed by any independent registered public accounting firm and has been derived from the unaudited financial statements for the quarterly period ended December 31, 2024. Any other financial information provided as at a date after September 30, 2024 has not been audited or reviewed by any independent registered public accounting firm either. The information contained in this Report is based on management’s current information, including management’s view of a wide variety of significant business, economic and competitive risks and uncertainties. Certain data herein may involve underlying estimates, assumptions and judgments when applying accounting policies and preparing its financial statements, particularly in connection with the calculation of provisions. Any change in such estimates, assumptions and/or judgments resulting from new information or from changes in circumstances or experience could result in Westpac incurring losses greater than those anticipated or provided for.

 

Content in this announcement principally covers and compares the three months ended December 31, 2024 (“1Q25”) and second half 2024 (“2H24”) quarterly average periods unless otherwise stated. The 2H24 quarterly averages have been calculated using the simple arithmetic average of each financial item for the three months ended June 30, 2024 and the three months ended September 30, 2024. All dollar values in this report are in Australian dollars unless otherwise noted or the context otherwise requires, references to ‘dollars’, ‘dollar amounts’, ’$’, ‘AUD’ or ‘A$’ are to Australian dollars. Certain amounts and ratios, including amounts and ratios excluding Notable Items, are not defined by Australian Accounting Standards (“AAS”). These non-AAS measures are identified and described in the ‘Reading this report’ section of the Performance Review in Westpac’s 2024 Annual Report on Form 20-F filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission.

 

On February 17, 2025, Westpac Group (“Westpac” or “the Group”) provided the market with an update of its performance for 1Q25. The update coincided with the release of Westpac’s Pillar 3 Report for 1Q25.

 

Westpac 1Q25 update

 

The Group delivered unaudited net profit of $1.7 billion for 1Q25. The impact of Notable Items, related solely to hedge accounting which will reverse over time, drove the 9% decline in both net profit and pre-provision profit compared to the second half 2024 quarterly average.

 

Excluding Notable Items, unaudited net profit increased 3% to $1.9 billion. Preprovision profit grew 3% with revenue increasing 2% and expenses rising 1%.

 

Customer deposit growth was $14.4 billion and loan growth was $13.4 billion for 1Q25.

 

 

 

 

Operating trends

 

The Group net interest margin (“NIM”) for 1Q25 was 1.82% and comprised of:

 

·Core NIM1 of 1.81%, down 2 basis points. A provision release in 2H24 contributed 1 basis point to the margin decline. The modest decline reflects prudent management in the context of ongoing mortgage competition and further deposit mix shift towards lower spread savings and term deposits. Higher earnings on capital and hedged deposits partly offset these impacts;

 

·Treasury and Markets income of 13 basis points; and

 

·Notable Items from unrealised fair value losses related to economic hedges of term funding detracted 12 basis points. These items reverse over time.

 

Net interest income decreased by 6% in 1Q25. Excluding Notable Items net interest income increased 1% with average interest earning assets up 1% and a modest decline in net interest margin.

 

Non-interest income increased 12%. Excluding Notable Items non-interest income increased 9%, reflecting higher financial markets revenue.

 

Expenses increased 1% with wage and salary growth partly offset by seasonally lower investment spend. Annual wage rises apply from 1 January 2025 and UNITE investment is expected to ramp up.

 

Impairment charges to average loans of 5 basis points, up from 4 basis points, remain low and reflect continued resilience by customers.

 

Financial strength

 

The Group CET1 capital ratio was 11.9% as at December 31, 2024. The 62 basis point decline in the quarter reflected the 2H24 dividend payment and higher Risk Weighted Assets (“RWA”) from loan growth and Interest Rate Risk in the Banking Book.

 

The Group quarterly average liquidity coverage ratio was 131% and the net stable funding ratio was 113% for 1Q25.

 

Group credit impairment provisions were $5.1 billion as at December 31, 2024. The ratio of collectively assessed provisions to credit RWA decreased slightly to 1.28% as at December 31, 2024.

 

 

1 Core net interest margin is calculated by excluding Notable Items and Treasury and Markets.

Key movements included: • First Quarter 2025 net profit: 37 basis points increase; • Payment of the 2024 final ordinary dividend: 58 basis points reduction; • RWA movement: 36 basis points decrease due to increases in credit RWA of 20 basis points and non-credit RWA of 16 basis points; and • Captial return: 6 basis points reduction comprising approximately $0.3 billion of on market share buybacks. The Level 1 CET1 capital ratio was 12.06% at 31 December 2024, 63 basis points lower than 30 September 2024 with movements in line with Level 2.

GRAPHIC

PILLAR 3 REPORT APPENDICES DISCLOSURE REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS GLOSSARY 5 Total RWA increased by 3.2% to $451.4 billion over the quarter due to increases in both credit and non-credit RWA. Credit RWA increased by $8.2 billion. Key movements included: • A $6.4 billion increase from higher lending, primarily in Corporate, Financial Institutions and Residential Mortgages; • A $1.0 billion increase from foreign currency translation impacts, predominantly from the depreciation of the A$ against the US$; • A $0.9 billion increase from data and methodology refinements1 ; • A $0.8 billion increase from counterparty credit risk and credit valuation adjustment; and • A $1.0 billion decrease mainly due to improvements in Residential Mortgages delinquency rates. Non-credit RWA increased by $5.8 billion. Key movements included: • IRRBB RWA increased by $6.3 billion, mainly driven by: – A $4.8 billion increase in repricing and yield curve, basis and optionality risk in line with changes in the underlying banking book position and management of interest rate risk; and – A $1.5 billion increase from higher interest rates creating a regulatory embedded loss of $0.2 billion at 31 December 2024 compared to a $1.3 billion gain at 30 September 2024; and • Market RWA: decreased $0.6 billion mainly from lower market risk exposures. Exposure at Default (EAD) EAD increased by $36.7 billion over the quarter. Key movements included: • A $19.6 billion increase from higher lending, mainly in Residential Mortgages, Corporate and Financial Institutions; • A $9.8 billion increase in derivative exposures due to the increase in the mark-to-market value of derivatives from changes in underlying foreign currency exchange rates; • A $5.5 billion increase from foreign currency translation impacts; and • A $1.8 billion increase in Sovereign exposures, mainly driven by higher government bond holdings partly offset by a reduction in funds placed with central banks. Tier 2 capital movement for First Quarter 2025 Westpac issued $2.3 billion of Tier 2 capital instruments over the quarter. The impact of these transactions was an increase in the total regulatory capital ratio of approximately 51 basis points. Over the quarter, Tier 2 capital has also been impacted by foreign currency translation impacts (51 basis points impact to the total regulatory capital ratio). Domestic systemically important banks (D-SIBs), including Westpac, have a total capital requirement of 18.25% from 1 January 2026. At 31 December 2024, Westpac's total regulatory capital ratio was 21.55%, well above this total capital requirement. APRA has also announced further changes to banks' capital requirements as outlined in the Capital Overview section. Leverage ratio The leverage ratio represents the percentage of Tier 1 capital relative to the Exposures Measure2 . At 31 December 2024, Westpac’s leverage ratio was 5.11%, down 19 basis points from 30 September 2024. The ratio remains well above APRA's regulatory minimum requirement of 3.5%. The decrease in the leverage ratio from 30 September 2024 is due to an increase in total exposures of $29.6 billion and lower Tier 1 Regulatory Capital of $0.8 billion following payment of the 2024 final ordinary dividend. The Exposures Measure increase was mainly due to higher lending and an increase in derivatives exposures. Liquidity Coverage Ratio (LCR) Westpac’s average LCR for the quarter ended 31 December 2024 was 131% (30 September 2024: 133%), well above the regulatory minimum of 100%. The decrease in the ratio was mainly due to the lower holdings of average liquid assets. 1. This includes a $1 billion APRA RWA overlay pending rectification of the usage of a customer risk grade proxy on a small sub-set of non-retail exposures. 2. As defined under Attachment D of APS 110: Capital Adequacy.

6 WESTPAC GROUP DECEMBER 2024 PILLAR 3 REPORT INTRODUCTION Westpac Banking Corporation is an Authorised Deposit-taking Institution (ADI) subject to regulation by APRA. APRA has accredited Westpac to apply advanced models permitted by the Basel III global capital adequacy regime to the measurement of its regulatory capital requirements. Westpac uses the Advanced Internal Ratings-Based approach (Advanced IRB) for credit risk and the Standardised Measurement Approach (SMA) for operational risk. In accordance with APS 330 Public Disclosure, financial institutions that have received the Advanced IRB accreditation, such as Westpac, are required to disclose prudential information about their risk management practices on a semi-annual basis. A subset of this information must be disclosed quarterly. In addition to this report, the regulatory disclosures section of the Westpac website1 contains the reporting requirements for: • Capital instruments under Attachment B of APS 330; and • The identification of potential Global-Systemically Important Banks (G-SIB) under Attachment H of APS 330 (disclosed annually). Capital instruments disclosures are updated when: • A new capital instrument is issued that will form part of regulatory capital; or • A capital instrument is redeemed, converted into CET1 capital, written off, or its terms and conditions are changed. 1. http://www.westpac.com.au/about-westpac/investor-centre/financial-information/regulatory-disclosures/

PILLAR 3 REPORT APPENDICES DISCLOSURE REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS GLOSSARY 7 GROUP STRUCTURE APRA applies a tiered approach to measuring Westpac’s capital adequacy1 by assessing financial strength at three levels: • Level 1, comprising Westpac Banking Corporation and its subsidiary entities that have been approved by APRA as being part of a single ‘Extended Licensed Entity’ (ELE) for the purposes of measuring capital adequacy; • Level 2, the consolidation of Westpac Banking Corporation and all its subsidiary entities except those entities specifically excluded by APRA regulations. The head of the Level 2 group is Westpac Banking Corporation; and • Level 3, the consolidation of Westpac Banking Corporation and all its subsidiary entities. Unless otherwise specified, all quantitative disclosures in this report refer to the prudential assessment of Westpac’s financial strength on a Level 2 basis2 . The Westpac Group The following diagram shows the Level 3 conglomerate group and illustrates the different tiers of regulatory consolidation. Westpac Banking Corporation Offshore Branches and Extended Licensed Entities Westpac New Zealand Limited Other Banking & Financial Entities Insurance, Funds Management, Non-Financial, Special Purpose Entities Level 3 Level 2 Level 1 Accounting consolidation3 The consolidated financial statements incorporate the assets and liabilities of all entities (including structured entities) controlled by Westpac. Westpac and its subsidiaries are referred to collectively as the ‘Group’. The effects of all transactions between entities in the Group are eliminated on consolidation. Control exists when the parent entity is exposed to, or has rights to, variable returns from its involvement with an entity, and has the ability to affect those returns through its power over that entity. Subsidiaries are fully consolidated from the date on which control commences and they are no longer consolidated from the date that control ceases. Group entities excluded from the regulatory consolidation at Level 2 Regulatory consolidation at Level 2 covers the global operations of Westpac and its subsidiary entities, including other controlled banking, securities and financial entities, except for those entities involved in the following business activities: • acting as manager, responsible entity, approved trustee, trustee or similar role in relation to funds management; • non-financial (commercial) operations; • special purpose entities to which assets have been transferred in accordance with the requirements of APS 120 Securitisation; or • insurance. Retained earnings and equity investments in subsidiary entities excluded from the consolidation at Level 2 are deducted from capital, with the exception of securitisation special purpose entities. 1. APS 110 Capital Adequacy outlines the overall framework adopted by APRA for the purpose of assessing the capital adequacy of an ADI. 2. Impaired assets and provisions held in Level 3 entities are excluded from the tables in this report. 3. Refer to Note 29 of Westpac’s 2024 Annual Report for further details.

8 WESTPAC GROUP DECEMBER 2024 PILLAR 3 REPORT GROUP STRUCTURE Subsidiary banking entities Westpac New Zealand Limited (WNZL), a subsidiary entity, is a registered bank incorporated in New Zealand and regulated by, among others, the Reserve Bank of New Zealand (RBNZ) for prudential purposes. WNZL uses both the Advanced IRB and Standardised methodologies for credit risk, and the SMA for operational risk. Other subsidiary banking entities in the Group include Westpac Bank - PNG - Limited and Westpac Europe GMBH. For the purposes of determining Westpac’s capital adequacy, subsidiary banking entities are consolidated at Level 2. Branch operations Westpac is one of Australia's leading providers of banking and selected financial services, operating under multiple brands in Australia and in New Zealand, with a small presence in Europe, North America and Asia. Westpac operates through a significant online capability supported by an extensive branch and ATM network, call centres and specialist relationship and product managers. Restrictions and major impediments on the transfer of funds or regulatory capital within the Group Certain subsidiary banking and trustee entities are subject to specific and local prudential regulation in their own right, including capital adequacy requirements and investment or intra-group exposure limits. Westpac seeks to ensure that its subsidiary entities are adequately capitalised and adhere to regulatory requirements at all times. Dividends and capital are repatriated in line with the Group’s policy subject to subsidiary Board approval and local regulations. Minimum capital (‘thin capitalisation’) rules Tax legislation in most jurisdictions in which the Group operates prescribes minimum levels of capital that must be retained in that jurisdiction to avoid a portion of the interest costs incurred in the jurisdiction ceasing to be tax deductible. Capital for these purposes includes both contributed capital and non-distributed retained earnings. Westpac seeks to maintain sufficient capital/retained earnings in these entities to comply with these rules. Tax costs associated with repatriation Repatriation of retained earnings (and capital) may result in tax being payable in either the jurisdiction from which the repatriation occurs or Australia on receipt of the relevant amounts. This cost would reduce the amount actually repatriated. Intra-group exposure limits Exposures to related entities are managed within the prudential limits prescribed by APRA in APS 222 Associations with Related Entities1 . Westpac has an internal limit structure and approval process governing credit exposures to related entities. This limit structure and approval process, combined with APRA’s prudential limits, is designed to reduce the potential for unacceptable contagion risk. RBNZ capital review2 The RBNZ capital adequacy framework became effective from 1 July 2022. The reforms commenced being phased in from 1 October 2021, with changes yet to be fully implemented including: • WNZL Tier 1 capital requirement will increase to 16% of RWA by 1 July 2028, of which 13.5% must be CET1 and up to 2.5% may be AT1; • WNZL’s total capital requirement will increase to 18% of RWA by 1 July 2028, of which up to 2% can be Tier 2 capital; and • Eligible Tier 1 capital will comprise common equity and redeemable perpetual preference shares. Existing AT1 capital instruments will be phased out by 1 July 2028. 1. For the purposes of APS 222, subsidiaries controlled by Westpac, other than subsidiaries that form part of the ELE, represent ‘related entities’. Prudential and internal limits apply to intra-group exposures between the ELE and related entities, both on an individual and aggregate basis. 2. WNZL’s references to CET1, AT1 and other capital measures are subject to RBNZ’s specific requirements and may not align with Australian requirements or definitions in the Glossary.

PILLAR 3 REPORT APPENDICES DISCLOSURE REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS GLOSSARY 9 CAPITAL OVERVIEW Capital management strategy Westpac's capital management strategy is reviewed on an ongoing basis, including through an annual Internal Capital Adequacy Assessment Process. Key considerations include: • Regulatory capital minimums together with the capital conservation buffer and countercyclical capital buffer are the Total CET1 Requirement. The Total CET1 Requirement for D-SIBs, including Westpac, is at least 10.25%1 ; • Strategy, business mix and operations and contingency plans; • Perspectives of external stakeholders including rating agencies as well as equity and debt investors; and • A stress testing framework that tests our resilience under a range of adverse economic scenarios. The Board has determined a target CET1 operating capital range of between 11.0% and 11.5%, in normal operating conditions. APRA announcement to phase out AT1 capital as eligible bank capital On 9 December 2024, APRA confirmed it will phase out AT1 capital instruments from the bank prudential framework. Under APRA’s proposed approach, large internationally active banks such as Westpac will replace 1.5% AT1 capital with 1.25% Tier 2 capital and 0.25% CET1 capital which would see the total CET1 requirement (including regulatory buffers) increase from 10.25% to 10.50%. APRA intends to finalise changes to prudential standards before the end of 2025, with the updated framework to come into effect from 1 January 2027.

Stage 1 and Stage 2 expected credit losses are classified as provisions held against performing exposures. Stage 3 expected credit losses are classified as specific provisions. Provisions held against performing exposures have decreased since 30 September 2024 due to a slight improvement in key economic indicators used to determine modelled portfolio provisions, partly offset by higher overlays following reassessment.

Non-performing exposures are those captured by the definition of default contained in APS 220 Credit Risk Management, which occurs when either one, or both, of the following has happened: • Westpac considers that the borrower is unlikely to pay its credit obligations to Westpac in full, without recourse to actions such as realising available security; • the borrower is 90 days or more past-due on a credit obligation to Westpac. Non-performing exposures can only be reclassified back to performing after the borrower demonstrates timely repayments over the relevant probationary period, which is 90 days for non-restructured exposures and six months for restructured exposures. $m Non Performing Exposures - Not Impaired Non Performing Exposures - Impaired Total Non Performing Exposures Specific provisions for Non Performing Exposures Actual Losses for the 3 months ended 31 December 2024 Corporate 137 121 258 147 (4) Business Lending 847 282 1,129 393 8 Property Finance 656 39 695 142 1 Large Corporate 2 103 105 18 - Sovereign - - - - - Financial Institutions 61 3 64 15 - Residential Mortgages 5,101 544 5,645 503 7 Australian Credit Cards - 89 89 33 39 Other Retail - 109 109 55 34 Small Business 680 449 1,129 184 27 Specialised Lending - - - - - Securitisation - - - - - Standardised 297 128 425 109 - New Zealand 748 213 961 145 6 Total 8,529 2,080 10,609 1,744 118 $m Non Performing Exposures - Not Impaired Non Performing Exposures - Impaired Total Non Performing Exposures Specific provisions for Non Performing Exposures Actual Losses for the 12 months ended 30 September 2024 Corporate 237 123 360 168 9 Business Lending 769 292 1,061 385 19 Property Finance 652 41 693 139 5 Large Corporate 2 4 6 1 - Sovereign - - - - - Financial Institutions 56 1 57 12 2 Residential Mortgages 5,358 450 5,808 501 43 Australian Credit Cards - 92 92 36 138 Other Retail - 112 112 56 112 Small Business 645 519 1,164 186 65 Specialised Lending - - - - - Securitisation - - - - - Standardised 346 109 455 103 8 New Zealand 735 212 947 142 29 Total 8,800 1,955 10,755 1,729 430

LCR is calculated as High-Quality Liquid Assets1 (HQLA) as a percentage of Net Cash Outflows (NCO). Westpac’s average LCR2 for the quarter was 131% (30 September 2024: 133%) and continues to be well above the regulatory minimum of 100%. The decrease in average LCR for the quarter ended 31 December 2024 reflects a decrease in average liquid assets mainly driven by lower qualifying RBNZ securities. HQLA averaged $168.8 billion over the quarter (30 September 2024: $168.7 billion), comprising of cash and balances with central banks, Australian government and semi-government bonds. Westpac also holds other HQLA, mainly qualifying RBNZ securities. Funding is sourced from retail, small business, corporate and institutional customer deposits and wholesale funding. Westpac seeks to minimise the outflows associated with this funding by targeting customer deposits with lower LCR outflow rates and actively manages the maturity profile of its wholesale funding portfolio. Westpac maintains a buffer over the regulatory minimum of 100% in line with its liquidity risk tolerance. 31 December 2024 30 September 2024 $m Total unweighted value (average) Total weighted value (average) Total unweighted value (average) Total weighted value (average) Liquid assets, of which: 1 High-quality liquid assets (HQLA) 168,771 168,684 2 Alternative liquid assets (ALA) - - 3 Reserve Bank of New Zealand (RBNZ) securities 2,109 4,038 Cash Outflows 4 Retail deposits and deposits from small business customers, of which: 363,764 32,442 352,605 31,457 5 Stable deposits 174,181 8,709 168,836 8,442 6 Less stable deposits 189,583 23,733 183,769 23,015 7 Unsecured wholesale funding, of which: 163,053 71,433 165,983 72,391 8 Operational deposits (all counterparties) and deposits in networks for cooperative banks 75,699 18,858 77,841 19,392 9 Non-operational deposits (all counterparties) 78,206 43,427 79,427 44,284 10 Unsecured debt 9,148 9,148 8,715 8,715 11 Secured wholesale funding 505 305 12 Additional requirements, of which: 205,117 36,469 198,728 33,772 13 Outflows related to derivatives exposures and other collateral requirements 18,697 18,180 16,234 16,234 14 Outflows related to loss of funding on debt products 816 816 182 182 15 Credit and liquidity facilities 185,604 17,473 182,312 17,356 16 Other contractual funding obligations 8,991 6,041 9,260 6,853 17 Other contingent funding obligations 67,077 5,118 69,183 5,339 18 Total cash outflows 152,008 150,117 Cash inflows 19 Secured lending (e.g. reverse repos) 12,285 - 17,310 - 20 Inflows from fully performing exposures 11,357 6,131 10,866 5,914 21 Other cash inflows 15,110 15,110 14,288 14,288 22 Total cash inflows 38,752 21,241 42,464 20,202 23 Total liquid assets 170,880 172,722 24 Total net cash outflows 130,767 129,915 25 Liquidity Coverage Ratio (%) 131% 133% Number of data points used 64 66 1.

PILLAR 3 REPORT APPENDICES DISCLOSURE REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS GLOSSARY 27 DISCLOSURE REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS The information contained in this report contains statements that constitute “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of section 21E of the U.S. Securities Exchange Act of 1934. Forward-looking statements are statements that are not historical facts. Forward-looking statements appear in a number of places in this report and include statements regarding Westpac’s current intent, belief or expectations with respect to its business and operations, macro and micro economic and market conditions, results of operations and financial condition and performance, capital adequacy and liquidity and risk management, including, without limitation, future loan loss provisions and financial support to certain borrowers, forecasted economic indicators and performance metric outcomes, indicative drivers, climate- and other sustainability- related statements, commitments, targets, projections and metrics, and other estimated and proxy data. Words such as ‘will’, ‘may’, ‘expect’, ‘intend’, ‘seek’, ‘would’, ‘should’, ‘could’, ‘continue’, ‘plan’, ‘estimate’, ‘anticipate’, ‘believe’, ‘probability’, ‘indicative’, ‘risk’, ‘aim’, ‘outlook’, ‘forecast’, ‘f’cast’, ‘f’, ‘assumption’, ‘projection’, ‘target,’ goal’, ‘guidance’, 'objective', ‘ambition’ or other similar words are used to identify forward-looking statements. These forward-looking statements reflect Westpac’s current views on future events and are subject to change, certain known and unknown risks, uncertainties and assumptions and other factors which are, in many instances, beyond Westpac’s control (and the control of Westpac’s officers, employees, agents and advisors), and have been made based on management’s current expectations or beliefs concerning future developments and their potential effect upon Westpac. Forward-looking statements may also be made, verbally or in writing, by members of Westpac’s management or Board in connection with this report. Such statements are subject to the same limitations, uncertainties, assumptions and disclaimers set out in this report. There can be no assurance that future developments or performance will align with Westpac’s expectations or that the effect of future developments on Westpac will be those anticipated. Actual results could differ materially from those Westpac expects or which are expressed or implied in forward-looking statements, depending on various factors including, but not limited to, those described in the risk factors in Westpac’s 2024 Risk Factors. When relying on forward-looking statements to make decisions with respect to Westpac, investors and others should carefully consider such factors and other uncertainties and events. Except as required by law, Westpac assumes no obligation to revise or update any forward-looking statements in this report, whether from new information, future events, conditions or otherwise, after the date of this report.

PILLAR 3 REPORT APPENDICES DISCLOSURE REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS GLOSSARY 29 GLOSSARY Capital Adequacy Description Additional Tier 1 capital (AT1) Comprises high quality components of capital that provide a permanent and unrestricted commitment of funds that are freely available to absorb losses but rank behind claims of depositors and other more senior creditors. They also provide for fully discretionary capital distributions. Common equity Tier 1 (CET1) capital The highest form of capital. The key components of common equity are shares, retained earnings and undistributed current year earnings. Internal Ratings-Based approach (IRB & Advanced IRB) These approaches allow banks to use internal estimates of the risks of their loans as inputs into the determination of the amount of credit risk capital needed to support the organisation. In the Advanced IRB approach, banks must supply their own estimates for all three credit parameters – Probability of Default, Loss Given Default and Exposure at Default. Risk weighted assets (RWA) Assets (both on and off-balance sheet) are risk weighted according to each asset's inherent potential for default and what the likely losses would be in case of default. In the case of non-asset backed risks (i.e. market, IRRBB and operational risk), RWA is determined by multiplying the capital requirements for those risks by 12.5. Tier 2 capital Includes other capital elements, which, to varying degrees, fall short of the quality of Tier 1 capital but still contribute to the overall strength of an entity as a gone concern capital. Credit Risk Actual losses Represent direct write-offs and write-offs from provisions after adjusting for recoveries. Collectively assessed provisions (CAPs) Collectively assessed provisions for expected credit loss under AASB 9 represent the Expected Credit Loss (ECL) which is collectively assessed in pools of similar assets with similar risk characteristics. This incorporates forward-looking information and does not require an actual loss event to have occurred for an impairment provision to be recognised. Credit valuation adjustment (CVA) risk Refer to mark-to-market related credit risk. Default Refer to Non-performing exposures definition. Defaulted but not impaired Non-performing exposures that are not captured by the definition of impaired exposures contained in this glossary. Expected credit loss (ECL) Expected credit losses are a probability-weighted estimate of the cash shortfalls expected to result from defaults over the relevant time frame. They are determined by evaluating a range of possible outcomes and taking into account the time value of money, past events, current conditions and forecasts of future economic conditions. Exposure at default (EAD) EAD is calculated at facility level and includes outstandings as well as the proportion of committed undrawn that is expected to be drawn in the event of a future default. Impaired exposures Includes exposures that have deteriorated to the point where full collection of interest and principal is in doubt, based on an assessment of the customer’s outlook, cashflow, and the net realisation of value of assets to which recourse is held: • facilities 90 days or more past due, and full recovery is in doubt: exposures where contractual payments are 90 or more days in arrears and the net realisable value of assets to which recourse is held may not be sufficient to allow full collection of interest and principal, including overdrafts or other revolving facilities that remain continuously outside approved limits by material amounts for 90 or more calendar days; • non-accrual facilities: exposures with individually assessed impairment provisions held against them, excluding restructured loans; • restructured facilities: exposures where the original contractual terms have been formally modified to provide for concessions of interest or principal for reasons related to the financial difficulties of the customer; • other assets acquired through security enforcement (includes other real estate owned): includes the value of any other assets acquired as full or partial settlement of outstanding obligations through the enforcement of security arrangements; and • any other facilities where the full collection of interest and principal is in doubt. Individually assessed provisions (IAPs) Provisions raised for expected credit losses on credit exposures that are known to be impaired and are assessed on an individual basis. The estimated losses on these impaired exposures is based on expected future cash flows discounted to their present value and, as this discount unwinds, interest will be recognised in the income statement. Loss given default (LGD) The LGD represents an estimate of the expected severity of a loss to Westpac should a customer default occur during a severe economic downturn. Westpac assigns LGD to each credit facility, assuming an event of default has occurred and taking into account a conservative estimate of the net realisable value of assets to which Westpac has recourse and over which it has security. LGDs also reflect the seniority of exposure in the customer’s capital and debt structure. Mark-to-market related credit risk The risk of mark-to-market losses related to deterioration in the credit quality of a derivative counterparty also referred to as credit valuation adjustment (CVA) risk. Non-performing exposures Credit exposures captured by the definition of default contained in APS 220, which occurs when either one, or both, of the following has happened: • Westpac considers that the borrower is unlikely to pay its credit obligations to Westpac in full, without recourse to actions such as realising available security; • the borrower is 90 days or more past-due on a credit obligation to Westpac. Non-Performing Exposures – Impaired Exposures that meet the characteristics of Non-Performing exposures and Impaired exposures (see separate definitions). Probability of default (PD) Probability of default is a through-the-cycle assessment of the likelihood of a customer defaulting on its financial obligations within one year. Leverage Ratio Description Leverage ratio The leverage ratio is defined by APRA as Tier 1 capital divided by the “Exposure measure” and is expressed as a percentage. “Exposure measure” includes on-balance sheet exposures, derivatives exposures, securities financing transaction (SFT) exposures, and other off-balance sheet exposures.

30 WESTPAC GROUP DECEMBER 2024 PILLAR 3 REPORT GLOSSARY Liquidity Coverage Ratio Alternative Liquid Assets (ALA) Assets that qualify for inclusion in the numerator of the LCR in jurisdictions where there is insufficient supply of HQLA. High-quality liquid assets (HQLA) Assets which meet APRA’s criteria for inclusion as HQLA in the numerator of the LCR. Liquidity coverage ratio (LCR) An APRA requirement to maintain an adequate level of unencumbered high quality liquid assets, to meet liquidity needs for a 30 calendar day period under an APRA-defined severe stress scenario. Absent a situation of financial stress, the value of the LCR must not be less than 100%. LCR is calculated as the percentage ratio of stock of HQLA, CLF and qualifying Reserve Bank of New Zealand securities over the total net cash out flows in a modelled 30 day defined stressed scenario. Net cash outflows Total expected cash outflows minus total expected cash inflows in the specified LCR stress scenario calculated in accordance with APRA’s liquidity standard. Securitisation Banking book The banking book includes all securities that are not actively traded by Westpac. Off-balance sheet exposure Credit exposures arising from facilities that are not recorded on Westpac's balance sheet (under accounting methodology). Undrawn commitments and the expected future exposure calculated for Westpac's derivative products are included in off-balance sheet exposure. On balance sheet exposure Credit exposures arising from facilities that are recorded on Westpac's balance sheet (under accounting methodology). Trading book The trading book includes securities and financial instruments, including derivative products and other off-balance sheet instruments, that are held either with trading intent or to hedge other elements of the trading book. Market Risk Value at risk (VaR) VaR is a measure of the potential loss in economic value arising from adverse market movements and is calculated over a defined time horizon (typically 1-day or 1-year) at a 99% confidence interval using a minimum of one year of historical data. VaR takes account of all material market variables that may cause a change in the value of the trading portfolio or the banking book including interest rates, foreign exchange rates, price changes, volatility, and the correlation among these variables.

ASX ANNOUNCEMENT I WESTPAC 1Q25 UPDATE ASX ANNOUNCEMENT 1Q25 UPDATE 17 FEBRUARY 2025 FINANCIAL HIGHLIGHTS $1.7bn Unaudited net profit 1.82% Net interest margin 11.9% CET1 capital ratio above target operating range of 11.0% to 11.5% $1.9bn Unaudited net profit ex Notable Items up 3% on 2H24 average 1.81% Core NIM1 down 2bps on 2H24 1.28% CAP to credit RWA down 4bps on Sep-24 Westpac First Quarter 2025 Update Anthony Miller – Chief Executive Officer "This has been a solid first quarter performance, reflecting our strong financial position, balance sheet growth and service excellence. The unaudited net profit was $1.7 billion. The impact of Notable Items, related solely to hedge accounting which will reverse over time, drove the 9% decline in both net profit and pre-provision profit compared to the second half 2024 quarterly average. Excluding Notable Items, unaudited net profit increased 3% to $1.9 billion. Pre-provision profit grew 3% with revenue increasing 2% and expenses rising 1%. Operating momentum was pleasing with customer deposit growth of $14.4 billion and loan growth of $13.4 billion. This includes Australian housing loan growth excluding RAMS of 2%, business loan growth of 3% and institutional loan growth of 6%. I’m particularly pleased with our efforts to enhance customer service and safety. Since the start of the year we have: • Committed to 200 additional small business and SME bankers across Australia by the end of 2027; • Commenced the roll out of digital financial management tools to help businesses track cash flows and reconcile expenses; • Launched multiple offset accounts to give Westpac customers more flexibility; • Provided customers with more ways to save, including the ability to transfer credit card reward points to Everyday Rewards points to redeem for their weekly shop; • Further strengthened customer support to combat fraud and scams to respond when customers need it most; and

ASX ANNOUNCEMENT I WESTPAC 1Q25 UPDATE • Been reappointed as the primary banking partner to the New South Wales Government, reinforcing our position as Australia's leading public sector bank. Fiona Wild has been appointed as the Chief Sustainability Officer, reporting directly to me. We continue to prioritise financial strength with capital, funding and liquidity remaining comfortably above regulatory minimums. Cost of living pressures and high interest rates remain challenging for some customers while many businesses face cost pressures and lower demand. Encouragingly, inflation has eased and we could see the Reserve Bank of Australia reduce the cash rate as early as tomorrow. This should provide some relief to households and, over time, support business activity. We encourage customers to call us if they need help." Operating trends The NIM of 1.82% comprised: • Core NIM of 1.81%, down 2 basis points. A provision release in 2H24 contributed 1 basis point to the margin decline. The modest decline reflects prudent management in the context of ongoing mortgage competition and further deposit mix shift towards lower spread savings and term deposits. Higher earnings on capital and hedged deposits partly offset these impacts; • Treasury and Markets income of 13 basis points; and • Notable Items from unrealised fair value losses related to economic hedges of term funding detracted 12 basis points. These items reverse over time. Net interest income decreased 6%. Excluding Notable Items net interest income increased 1% with average interest earning assets up 1% and a modest decline in net interest margin. Non-interest income increased 12%. Excluding Notable Items non-interest income increased 9%, reflecting higher financial markets revenue. Expenses increased 1% with wage and salary growth partly offset by seasonally lower investment spend. Annual wage rises apply from 1 January 2025 and UNITE investment is expected to ramp up. Impairment charges to average loans of 5 basis points, up from 4 basis points, remain low and reflect continued resilience by customers. Financial strength The CET1 capital ratio was 11.9% as at 31 December 2024, above the target operating range of 11.0% to 11.5%. The 62 basis point decline in the quarter reflected the 2H24 dividend payment and higher risk weighted assets from loan growth and IRRBB2 . The proforma CET1 capital ratio of 11.6% assumes completion of the remaining on market share buyback. The quarterly average liquidity coverage ratio of 131% and net stable funding ratio of 113% remain above regulatory minimums. The Group is well progressed with new long-term wholesale funding having raised $12.3 billion in the financial year to date. Credit impairment provisions were $5.1 billion as at 31 December 2024, $1.6 billion above expected losses of the base case economic scenario. The ratio of CAP to credit RWA decreased slightly to 1.28%. The Group has completed 62%3 of the previously announced $3.5 billion on market share buyback.

This presentation contains statements that constitute “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of Section 21E of the US Securities Exchange Act of 1934. Forward-looking statements are statements that are not historical facts. Forward-looking statements appear in a number of places in this presentation and include statements regarding our intent, belief or current expectations with respect to our business and operations, macro and micro economic and market conditions, results of operations and financial condition, capital adequacy, liquidity and risk management, including, without limitation, future loan loss provisions and financial support to certain borrowers, forecasted economic indicators and performance metric outcomes, indicative drivers, climate- and other sustainability-related statements, commitments, targets, projections and metrics, and other estimated and proxy data. We use words such as ‘will’, ‘may’, ‘expect’, ‘intend’, ‘seek’, ‘would’, ‘should’, ‘could’, ‘continue’, ‘plan’, ‘estimate’, ‘anticipate’, ‘believe’, ‘probability’, ‘indicative’, ‘risk’, ‘aim’, ‘outlook’, ‘forecast’, ‘f’cast’, ‘f’, ‘assumption’, ‘projection’, ‘target’, ‘goal’, ‘guidance’, ‘ambition’, ‘objective’ or other similar words to identify forward-looking statements, or otherwise identify forward-looking statements. These forward-looking statements reflect our current views on future events and are subject to change, certain known and unknown risks, uncertainties and assumptions and other factors which are, in many instances, beyond our control (and the control of our officers, employees, agents and advisors), and have been made based on management’s expectations or beliefs concerning future developments and their potential effect upon us. Forward-looking statements may also be made, verbally or in writing, by members of Westpac’s management or Board in connection with this presentation. Such statements are subject to the same limitations, uncertainties, assumptions and disclaimers set out in this presentation. There can be no assurance that future developments or performance will align with our expectations or that the effect of future developments on us will be those anticipated. Actual results could differ materially from those we expect or which are expressed or implied in forward-looking statements, depending on various factors including, but not limited to, those described in the sections titled ‘Our Operating Environment’ and ‘Risk Management' in our 2024 Annual Report, as well as the document titled ‘2024 Risk Factors’ (each available at www.westpac.com.au). When relying on forward-looking statements to make decisions with respect to us, investors and others should carefully consider such factors and other uncertainties and events.
