In 3Q24 and 9M24, TBC grew its bottom line by 14% yoy. The 3Q24 beat was driven by the NII (GEL 18m higher than our estimate and GEL 9m higher than the consensus) and fees (GEL 18m higher than our estimate and GEL 19m higher than the consensus), as well as strong trading income, up nearly 50% yoy. The...

TBC has reported GEL 329m in net income for 2Q24 (up 12% yoy), broadly in line with the GEL 314m consensus and our GEL 321m estimate. In terms of the core lines, we see no major deviations from the consensus or our estimates, with the provisions being an exception, as the COR in Georgia was as low as 30bpts, on the back of a sizable recovery (16bpts benefit) and a positive macro outlook (the bank has revised its 2024E Georgia GDP growth expectations from 6.4% to 7.4%). TBC also announced a GEL 2...

There was a broadly similar performance in Hungary, Czechia and Romania (+ 2.9%, 2.7% and 2.1% mom in EUR terms, respectively).

We have revised our valuations for the Georgian banks, and dived deep into Uzbekistan and TBC Bank Group’s (TBC) Uzbekistan business. Uzbekistan is an attractive place to do banking, with a booming consumer business, and the case for TBC’s Uzbekistan businesses is clear, in our view. With this report, we also begin to monitor Ameria Bank’s numbers separately, and include the bank in our SOTP valuation for Bank of Georgia (BGEO). Ameria is the top bank in Armenia, which BGEO acquired for attracti...

TBC has reported GEL 296m in net income for 1Q24, broadly in line with our estimate and the company-collected consensus of GEL 292m. We believe that 1Q24 was an uneventful quarter, with a robust 28.5% ROTE. As flagged by the bank previously, the NIM continued to normalise. Fee growth, at 13% yoy, was below our expectations, due to the timing of the VISA and Mastercard cashback. Lower-than-expected risk costs mitigated this impact. In our view, TBC is on track to meet our full-year GEL 1.2bn est...
EME Equity Market – March 2024 Market performance – mixed performances in March, with the Romanian BET outperforming.

TBC has reported GEL 291m in net income for 4Q23, in line with the GEL 288m consensus and our GEL 292m estimate. We believe that the bank may not have finished 2023 with a huge bang, but nothing to be desired in terms of earnings power, with a ROTE of around 30%. The bank kept on going full throttle in Uzbekistan as well. TBC will pay out a GEL 4.7/share dividend (a 4.9% yield on Friday’s stock price) on 19 July (ex. date 13 June). We rate TBC a BUY, with a GBP 32.9/share price target. The bank ...
