STRONG NIM AND NON-INTEREST INCOME TRICKLE DOWN TO BOTTOM LINE DESPITE HIGHER PROVISIONS SEQUENTIALLY AND HIGHER OPEX ANNUALLY; LDR DECLINES ON HIGHER DEPOSITS CIB 3Q22 net profit post minority recorded a robust EGP4.41 billion (+26% q/q, +16% y/y, and 9% higher than our estimates), bringing 9M22 net profit post minority to EGP12.16 billion (+23% y/y).The sequential expansion came on the back of 1) strong NIM, 2) robust non-interest income growth, 3) softer growth in OPEX, and 4) lower effec...
ROBUST MARGINS FAIL TO BOOST EARNINGS AS OPEX, PROVISIONS, AND EFFECTIVE TAX RATE SURGE SEQUENTIALLY; LENDING GROWS QNBA 3Q22 bottom line came in at EGP2,577 million (+1% q/q, +35% y/y), bringing 9M22 bottom line to EGP 7,332 million (+22% y/y). Annual growth was supported by robust margins that trickled down to the bottom line supported by non-interest income and lower OPEX despite a surge in provisions and effective tax rate. Sequential limited growth was caused by: 1) lower investment inc...
Higher RRR is negative, at face value, … On 22 September, the CBE hiked the reserve requirement ratio (RRR) on short-term LCY deposits by 4pp to 18.0% in effort to tighten liquidity and combat inflationary pressures. We calculate this should result in the absorption of cEGP150bn in excess liquidity from the system, which would be deposited at the CBE with no return. The RRR on FCY deposits was maintained at 10%. We expect banks will satisfy the higher liquidity requirement mainly through reducin...
Strong fundamentals coupled with a high yield. We continue to favour CAE and maintain our OW rating. CAE’s solid balance sheet and balanced credit exposure allow for the trickling down of the bulk of the impact from the potential margin expansion to total profitability. We expect RoE to stand at c23% over 2022-23e vs. 17.5%, as implied from the current market price. CAE offers a 2022e dividend yield of 12%, among the highest within our Egypt coverage. CAE trades on a 2022e P/BV of 0.83x and P/E ...
ROBUST MARGINS FAIL TO BOOST EARNINGS AS OPEX, PROVISIONS AND EFFECTIVE TAX RATE SURGE SEQUENTIALLY; LENDING GROWS HDBK 2Q22 standalone bottom line recorded a healthy figure of EGP564 million (-12% q/q, +48% y/y), bringing 1H22 bottom line to EGP 1,204 million (+20% y/y). Sequential decline was driven by: 1) lower investment income due to high comparable base, which limited the positive impact of strong margins, coupled with 2) higher OPEX, 3) higher provisions and 4) higher effective tax rat...
EARNINGS BOOSTED BY STRONG MARGINS AND NON-INTEREST INCOME COUPLED WITH LOWER OPEX DESPITE SURGING PROVISIONS; LDR IMPROVES ADIB 2Q22 consolidated net profit pre minority interest recorded a robust EGP578 million (+29% q/q, +65% y/y) reaching EGP1,017 million (+51% y/y) in 1H22. The strong sequential and annual performance was driven by: 1) improved margins, 2) strong non interest income, 3) lower OPEX, 4) lower sequential effective tax rate despite surging provisions annually and sequentiall...
EARNINGS DRIVEN BY INTEREST INCOME, AND LOWER PROVISIONS, DESPITE GROWING OPEX CIEB 2Q22 consolidated bottom line recorded EGP524 million, pre minority interest and appropriations (+7% q/q, +35% y/y), 11% higher than Pharos estimates of EGP471 million, bringing 1H22 bottom line to EGP 1,015 million (+32% y/y). Sequential performance was limited by lower investment income which wiped out the effect of robust margins, while lower provisions supported earnings, coupled with slight growth in OPEX...
Trading at a deep discount. We resume coverage on ADIB-E with an OW recommendation and a TP of EGP22.0/share. ADIB-E trades on a 2022e P/BV of 0.5x (P/E of 2.8x), a 61% discount to its five-year average and 55.5% to the average valuation of tier-1 peers. Trading at a discount to CIB – the sector’s proxy – could be attributed to size and capitalisation, but the magnitude is not justified, given ADIB-E’s 2022e RoE of 22.7% and 2022-24e EPS CAGR of 18.7%, broadly in line with peers. Phase 1 of capi...
A plunge in non-interest income and sequentially higher provisions wipe sequential growth while margins and lower OPEX support earnings; LDR improves CIB 2Q22 net profit post minority recorded a robust EGP3,511 billion (-17% q/q, +9% y/y), bringing 1H22 net profit post minority to EGP7.8 billion (+27% y/y).The sequential contraction came on the back of 1) weak non-interest income (on lower fees and commissions and investment income), and 2) higher booked provisions versus provisions reversals...
