MCB Bank (Pakistan): MCB Bank Ltd: 2QCY23 Review - Strong asset repric...

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...

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 ...

MCB has posted consolidated 4QCY22 NPAT of PKR13.8bn (EPS: PKR11.60), up 65%YoY and 49%QoQ. This takes CY22 NPAT to PKR34.4bn (EPS: PKR29.00), up 10%YoY. The result is much better than our estimated 4Q EPS of PKR6.90, led by a combination of strong NII, net provisioning reversals and a low tax rate - excluding the latter this is still an earnings beat. Results were accompanied by a strong final cash dividend of PKR6.0/sh – vs. an estimated PKR4.5/sh, taking the CY22 payout to PKR20.0/sh. 4QCY...

Pakistan Banks: 4QCY22 Result Previews - NII growth may be negated by ...

We estimate the IMS Banking Universe to report flat sequential earnings in 4QCY22 (up 19% YoY), as we incorporate significantly lower Fx income, sticky total provisions and higher admin expenses. These factors should offset sequentially higher NII. UBL may stand out in terms of sequential profit growth, given its low base (one-off impairment in the previous quarter). In general, there is room for minor negative surprises on payouts across our coverage, with mark-to-market bond repricing pushi...

Results were accompanied by an interim cash dividend of PKR5.0/sh – inline with estimates, taking 9MCY22 payout to PKR14.0/sh. 3QCY22 Results Highlights: * MCB reported NII of PKR...
