OTP beat estimates in Q1

OTP reported higher than expected profit for Q1/24. Consolidated PAT totalled HUF 240bn
(+8% vs. consensus), driven by improving NIM QoQ, cost efficiency and credit quality.
Total risk cost surprisingly comprised HUF +7bn, massively beating analysts’ expectations
of HUF -20bn and our estimate of HUF -25bn) due to provision releases in OTP Core, CR
and UKR, offset by UZB, RU and RO. Importantly, Uzbekistan risk cost dropped two-third
QoQ. Total assets grew +5% QoQ to HUF 41,482bn), driven by a 1% increase in
performing customer loans and HUF depreciation. Foreign banks accounted for 74% of the
PAT. OTP posted an EPS of HUF 895 in Q1/24, representing a +24 QoQ or +81% YoY
increase, distorted by the fact that in Q1/23 NKBM had only a 2-month profit contribution.
ROE reached 22.7%. Based on the old methodology, adjusted EPS would come in at HUF
1,054 (+23% QoQ or +54% YoY). CAR and CET1 adequacy ratios increased by 0.1%pt to
19% and 16.7%, respectively. OTP left its FY2024 guidance unchanged.
