WOOD Flash – Patria Bank: strong bottom-line beat, but lacking quality

Patria Bank reported its preliminary FY23 results yesterday (29 February), after the market closed, delivering net income of RON 25.5m in FY23, up c.33% yoy, beating our estimate by 53% and implying a FY23 ROE of 7.1%. The NII delivery disappointed, due mainly to a significant contraction in the loan book. The NFC saw a positive evolution in FY23 and, together with the non-recurring income, kept banking revenues afloat. Non-recurring revenues and a lower cost of risk were the main sources of the massive bottom-line beat, as the costs and taxes booked were broadly in line with expectations.
