Q4FY25 numbers were weak as core operating performance was weak while asset quality trends improved mainly led by higher write off. Net interest income (NII) at Rs. 11,020 crore (below estimates) down by 7% y-o-y/ 3% q-o-q.
UNBK saw a strong quarter owing to beat on all fronts i.e. NII, fees and asset quality resulting in core PBT being 9.4% above PLe. NII was 1.8% higher as NIM was cushioned due to (1) shedding of high cost bulk deposits in the last quarter and (2) avoiding disbursal of lower yielding loans. Loan growth was muted at 9.5% YoY; over FY25-27E we are factoring a loan CAGR slightly lower than the system at 10%. Asset quality was superior as net slippages were lower led by controlled gross slippages and healthy recoveries while provisioning for Q4'25...
Canara Bank posted a 20% beat on earnings at Rs50bn/1.3% RoA, mainly aided by treasury gains/recovery from written-off loans and provision reversal on SR investments. Credit growth outpaced expectations at 12.6% YoY/2.5% QoQ, while deposit growth was strong at 11% YoY/6.4% QoQ.
PNB reported some moderation in credit growth at 15% YoY, albeit the higherthan-expected margin downtick, similar to BOB’s, at 12bps QoQ to 2.8% was upsetting.
Bank of Baroda (BoB) reported healthy credit growth at 13% YoY. However, the sharp and constant decline in NIM (by 8bps QoQ) to 2.86% (due to lower loan yields) and the higher provisions were the upsets during 4Q.
BOB saw a weak quarter with core PPoP miss of 7.3% as NII/NIM was 6.1% below PLe. Margins remain under pressure; while reported domestic NIM fell by 9bps QoQ, full year NIM for FY25 fell by 16bps YoY to 3.02% due to 24bps increase in deposit cost and 13bps fall in loan yields. In our view, the fall in yields was likely due to preference for growth over profitability while increase in funding cost was driven by reliance on higher cost bulk deposits in FY25. Bank expects NIM to remain under pressure in Q1FY26, post which it may improve....
