MCB has posted consolidated 2QCY23 NPAT of PKR14.7bn (EPS: PKR12.38), up a massive 6.4x YoY and 25% QoQ. This takes 1HCY23 NPAT to PKR28.6bn (EPS: PKR24.13), up 2.5x YoY. The result is much better than our estimated 2Q EPS of PKR9.85, led by a sharp rise in NII (+80% YoY) and very strong fee income delivery (up 37% YoY). Results were accompanied by a second interim cash dividend of PKR7.0/sh – slightly higher than estimated, taking 1HCY23 DPS to PKR13.0/sh. 2QCY23 RESULTS HIGHLIGHTS: * MCB r...

Habib Bank: 2QCY23 Review - Record high pre-tax profits
HBL has reported 2QCY23 NPAT of PKR13.0bn (EPS: PKR8.86), up 3.8x YoY / flat QoQ. This takes 1HCY23 NPAT to PKR26.2bn (EPS: PKR17.86), up 2.2x YoY. The 2Q result is in line with our expected EPS of PKR8.90, while the interim DPS of PKR2.00 is higher than our estimated DPS of PKR1.50. While total provisions and admin expenses are slightly higher than expected, these have been offset by strong non-interest income led by fee. Strong performance has led to improvement in T1 and CAR to comfortable...

Pakistan Banks – 2QCY23 Result Previews - Strong core performance to c...
* Pre-tax 2QCY23 profits for the IMS Banking Universe are expected to rise 10%QoQ, reflecting strong core performance. However, net earnings may come off by 15%QoQ due to retrospective impact of super tax (10% vs. 4% previously). Payouts should remain broadly intact. * Domestic asset quality has remained resilient, which should keep the cost of risk in check. Impairment, if any, should also be contained compared to the last few quarters. We expect MEBL to stand out due to the lagged ass...

Pakistan Banks: Returning conviction
* With the IMF staff-level agreement in place, the much needed breathing space for Pakistan's economy reinforces our liking for the banking sector. The absence of banks from debt restructuring in Zambia and Sri Lanka also provides comfort if this conversation crops up again in Pakistan next year. * 1QCY23 results indicate underlying profitability is strong, on rising margins and resilient asset quality. Our 2023-27f earnings estimates remain broadly unchanged, even as we conservatively ...

Habib Bank: 1QY23 Review - Reasonable base to build upon
HBL has reported 1QCY23 NPAT of PKR13.2bn (EPS: PKR9.00), up 56% YoY / 24% QoQ. The result is inline with our expected EPS of PKR8.90, although the first interim DPS of PKR1.50 falls short of our expected PKR2.00. Relatively weak non-interest income (Fx losses), high admin expenses and a low tax rate (38% vs. 43% expected) are among the salient features of the result, which mask solid core revenue generation for the bank. 1QCY23 RESULTS HIGHLIGHTS: * NII came in at PKR55.8bn, inline with exp...
