Granite MorTgages 03-3 PLC

Interim Financial Report

for the 6 months to 30 September 2015

Registered Number: 04823268

Financial information

Granite Mortgages 03-3 plc ('the Company') is a public limited company incorporated and domiciled in the United Kingdom.

The Directors present the Interim Financial Report for the Company for the six months reporting period from 1 April 2015 to 30 September 2015 (the 'six month period').

In accordance with the transitional provisions contained in Section 79(2)(a) of the Transparency (Directive 2004/109/EC) Regulations 2007, an Issuer of debt securities with a denomination of EUR50,000 or less and admitted to trading before 1 January 2005 is exempted from the requirement to disclose its half yearly financial report for a period of 10 years following 1 January 2015 (the 'interim reporting exemption'). The interim reporting exemption now having come to an end, the Company in accordance with the Transparency (Directive 2004/109/EC) Regulations 2007 (as amended), now complies and has accordingly produced its half yearly Interim Financial Report for the six month period. Where appropriate to show half year and full year comparisons, the unaudited six month period to 30 September 2014 ('H1 2014/15') and audited 12 month period to 31 March 2015 ('FY 2014/15') have been presented.

Principal activities

The Company's principal activity is to issue floating rate debt securities and to enter into financial arrangements to fund the activities of certain subsidiaries of Granite Finance Holdings Limited and ultimately UK Asset Resolution Limited ('UKAR') by means of intercompany loans. The debt securities are issued in US Dollars, Euros and Sterling and are secured on a beneficial interest in a portfolio of mortgage loans originated by NRAM plc ('NRAM') formerly Northern Rock (Asset Management) plc and held under a master trust arrangement by Granite Finance Trustees Limited. These mortgage loans are secured on residential properties in the United Kingdom. Noteholders will only be paid interest and principal to the extent that funds are received on the Trust's mortgage portfolio and used by Granite Finance Funding Limited to repay the inter-company loan with the Company in accordance with the inter-company agreements. Details are set out in the offering circular pertinent to this issue. The securitisation structure was established primarily as a means of raising finance for Northern Rock plc during 2004.

During the six months to 30 September 2015, Granite Finance Funding Limited made repayments totalling GBP30.0m (H1 2014/15: GBP25.4m; FY 2014/15: GBP51.8m) to the Company in respect of the inter-company loan. These repayments were used to repay certain of the debt securities in issue. The company made all interest payments due in line with the securitisation transaction documents. All payments made in the period were in accordance with the pass-through provisions that continue to apply following the breach of the non-asset trigger in November 2008. The Company is entitled to a pre-determined retained profit under the securitisation transaction documents. Under the terms of the securitisation, the Company retains the right to 0.01% of the interest received under the inter-company loan (as defined within the securitisation transaction documents). The Company is taxed in accordance with the permanent regime for securitisation companies.

On 13 November 2015, the Company announced that amendments had been made to the Granite Transaction Documents granting NRAM the right (the 'Seller Call Option') at any time to require the Mortgages Trustee to sell the loans which are securitised within the Granite structure to NRAM or to a person nominated by NRAM, provided that the proceeds of sale are sufficient to fully redeem all of the Granite notes in issue. The Company also announced that NRAM had entered into an agreement, subject to the satisfaction of certain conditions precedent, to sell the loans which are securitised within the Granite structure to Cerberus European Residential Holdings B.V. The sale is expected to be completed following the exercise by NRAM of the Seller Call Option prior to 9 December 2015. The proceeds of sale are expected to be sufficient to fund the redemption of all of the notes issued by the Granite issuing companies, including those issued by the Company, on the notes

Notes to the Financial Information

1. Reporting entity

Granite Mortgages 03-3 plc ('the Company') is a public limited company incorporated and domiciled in the United Kingdom.

2. Basis of preparation

This Interim Financial Report has been prepared in accordance with IAS 34 'Interim Financial Reporting'.

The information in this document does not include all of the disclosures required by IFRS in full annual financial statements, and it should be read in conjunction with the Financial Statements of the Company for the year ended 31 March 2015.

On 13 November 2015, the Company announced that amendments had been made to the Granite Transaction Documents granting NRAM the right (the 'Seller Call Option') at any time to require the Mortgages Trustee to sell the loans which are securitised within the Granite structure to NRAM or to a person nominated by NRAM, provided that the proceeds of sale are sufficient to fully redeem all of the Granite notes in issue. The Company also announced that NRAM had entered into an agreement, subject to the satisfaction of certain conditions precedent, to sell the loans which are securitised within the Granite structure to Cerberus European Residential Holdings B.V. The sale is expected to be completed following the exercise by NRAM of the Seller Call Option prior to 9 December 2015. The proceeds of sale are expected to be sufficient to fund the redemption of all of the notes issued by the Granite issuing companies, including those issued by the Company, on the notes payment date scheduled to fall on 20 January 2016. Accordingly, the going concern basis of accounting is no longer appropriate as at 30 September 2015. The comparative financial information continues to be prepared on a going concern basis under the historical cost basis except for financial instruments classified as 'at fair value through profit or loss'. No adjustments were necessary in this Interim Financial Report to write down assets to their recoverable value or to provide for liabilities arising as a result of the decision to cease trading.

The Directors consider that the Company's accounting policies are the most appropriate to its circumstances, have been consistently applied in dealing with items which are considered material and are supported by reasonable and prudent estimates and judgements.

The preparation of this Interim Financial Report requires the use of estimates and assumptions that affect the reported values of assets and liabilities at the Balance Sheet date and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Although these estimates are based on management's best knowledge of the amounts, events or actions, actual results ultimately may differ from those estimates.

In preparing this Interim Financial Report, including the comparative financial information where applicable, the Company has adopted for the first time the following amendments to IFRS, which had no material impact on the Company:

   --      The Annual Improvements to IFRSs 2010-2012 Cycle; and 
   --      The Annual Improvements to IFRSs 2011-2013 Cycle. 

There have been no other material changes to the accounting policies previously applied by the Company in preparing, and detailed in, its Annual Report & Financial Statements for the year ended 31 March 2015, which were prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards ('IFRS') as adopted by the European Union.

The Company had no employees during the periods presented and none of the Directors received emoluments in respect of their services to the Company. A fee is paid to Law Debenture Corporate Services Limited for the provision of corporate administration services including the provision of directors.

   7       Taxation 

The Company is taxed in accordance with the permanent regime for securitisation companies. Under the permanent regime, as the tax charge is based purely on contractually retained profit, neither the current tax charge nor deferred tax will be affected by any fair value gains or losses arising on derivatives and other financial instruments.

Taxation appropriately reflects changes in tax rates which had been substantively enacted by 30 September 2015.

The tax charge for each period included nil overseas tax charge. The tax charge for the six months to 30 September 2015 has been calculated using the expected effective tax rate for the 12 months to 31 March 2016, ie 20% (year ended 31 March 2015: 21%).

No deferred tax assets were unrecognised at 30 September 2015, 30 September 2014 or 31 March 2015. No deferred tax assets have been recognised in respect of tax losses carried forward.

   8       Related party disclosures 

The Company is a special purpose vehicle controlled by its Board of Directors, which comprises three Directors. Two of the Company's three Directors are corporate Directors provided by Law Debenture Corporate Services Limited and the third Director is a Director of NRAM (the controlling party under IFRS). Transactions during the period with the Company's key management personnel and other related parties were similar in nature to those during the year ended 31 March 2015.

Level 1: Quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.

Level 2: Inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability, whether directly (i.e. as price) or indirectly (i.e. derived from the implications of prices).

Level 3: Inputs for the asset or liability that are not based on observable market data or have significant unobservable inputs.

There were no transfers between Levels during the period (H1 2014/15: none; FY 2014/15: none).

Derivative financial instruments which are categorised as Level 2 are those which either:

(a) Have future cash flows which are known dates and for which the cash flow amounts are known or calculable by reference to observable interest and foreign currency exchange rates; or

(b) Have future cash flows which are not pre-defined, but which the fair value of the instrument has very low sensitivity to unobservable inputs.

In each case the fair value is calculated by discounting cash flows using observable market parameters including swap rates, interest rates and currency rates.

The Directors are aware of the following material risks and uncertainties which may affect the Company during the period to 31 March 2016:

- external economic factors including unemployment, house price movements, and the extent and timing of changes in interest rates.

There may be other risks that are not listed above that the Directors are not aware of or that the Directors do not consider material.

   14     Events after the reporting period 

On 13 November 2015, the Company announced that amendments had been made to the Granite Transaction Documents granting NRAM the right (the 'Seller Call Option') at any time to require the Mortgages Trustee to sell the loans which are securitised within the Granite structure to NRAM or to a person nominated by NRAM, provided that the proceeds of sale are sufficient to fully redeem all of the Granite notes in issue. The Company also announced that NRAM had entered into an agreement, subject to the satisfaction of certain conditions precedent, to sell the loans which are securitised within the Granite structure to Cerberus European Residential Holdings B.V. The sale is expected to be completed following the exercise by NRAM of the Seller Call Option prior to 9 December 2015. The proceeds of sale are expected to be sufficient to fund the redemption of all of the notes issued by the Granite issuing companies, including those issued by the Company, on the notes payment date scheduled to fall on 20 January 2016.

 
 The financial information in this document is unaudited and 
  does not constitute statutory accounts within the meaning of 
  section 435 of the Companies Act 2006. The comparative figures 
  for the financial year ended 31 March 2015 are not the statutory 
  accounts for that financial year for the Company. The 2015 
  statutory accounts of the Company have been reported on by 
  that company's auditors and delivered to the Registrar of Companies. 
  The report of the auditors was unqualified, did not include 
  a reference to any matters to which the auditors drew attention 
  by way of emphasis without qualifying their report, and did 
  not contain a statement under section 498(2) or (3) of the 
  Companies Act 2006. This document may contain forward-looking 
  statements with respect to certain plans and current goals 
  and expectations relating to the future financial conditions, 
  business performance and results of the Company. By their nature, 
  all forward-looking statements involve risk and uncertainty 
  because they relate to future events and circumstances that 
  are beyond the control of the Company including, amongst other 
  things, UK domestic and global economic and business conditions, 
  market related risks such as fluctuation in interest rates 
  and exchange rates, inflation, deflation, the impact of competition, 
  changes in customer preferences, risks concerning borrower 
  credit quality, delays in implementing proposals, the timing, 
  impact and other uncertainties of future acquisitions or other 
  combinations within relevant industries, the policies and actions 
  of regulatory authorities, the impact of tax or other legislation 
  and other regulations in the jurisdictions in which the Company 
  and its affiliates operate. As a result, the actual future 
  financial condition, business performance and results of the 
  Company may differ materially from the plans, goals and expectations 
  expressed or implied in these forward-looking statements.
