Yapi Kredi Bank - Beats 3Q17 Estimates Due to Lower General Provisions

Yapi Kredi Bank (YKB) released 3Q17 financials on Friday, posting TRY841 mln standalone net income, down 6% Q-o-Q and up 4% y-o-y, yielding an 11.7% quarterly ROE. The reported bottom line beat our estimate of TRY754 mln and the consensus of TRY758 mln mainly on the back of lower than expected general provisioning expenses. The other main positives were a 5 bp Q-o-Q improvement in swap-adjusted NIM, solid control over costs (about flat y-o-y in 3Q17, up only 4% y-o-y in 9m17), a 170 bp increase in the NPL coverage ratio to 78.0% and a further improvement in the "Group 2 loans + Restructured loans" line. Among the negatives were a sharp increase in the lira LDR to 157% from 131% in 2Q17 and a higher net NPL formation rate than the peer average (102 bps for YKB, versus around 50 bps for peers). We expect a slightly positive market reaction to the results due to the substantial beat on the consensus net income estimate.
