- ICICI Bank ( IBN ) Q2 2027 Earnings Call Transcript
ICICI Bank (NYSE:IBN) reported profit before tax of INR 199.5 billion, up 23.4% year over year excluding treasury results, and consolidated profit after tax of INR 163.3 billion, up 22.3%. Total deposits rose 27.1% and loans grew 30%, helped by USD 18 billion in FCNR (B) deposits mobilized under a one-off regulatory opportunity. Net interest margin fell to 4.18% from 4.36% in the previous quarter, which management attributed to a higher share of overseas branch assets and a sharp rise in retail term deposits. The net NPA ratio improved to 0.30% from 0.35% in June, and CET1 stood at 16.01%. Management said the full margin impact would show in the third quarter, with a recovery expected in the fourth, while ICICI General's combined ratio rose to 107% from 105.1%.
- Banks poised for Q3 profit growth amid margin pressure
Nam A Bank reported pre-tax profit of more than $188 million for the first nine months of 2026, up 25% year on year, with total assets nearing $18.6 billion and return on equity near 20%, and has achieved nearly 80% of its full-year pre-tax target of $248 million. MBS forecasts combined profit at 13 listed banks it covers could rise 19.1%, with Vietcombank's after-tax profit estimated at $466.1 million, up more than 29%, while VCBS expects VPBank's Q3 pre-tax profit at $430.8 million, up 18%. HDBank is forecast to post profit growth above 50% on credit growth of around 35%, whereas Sacombank, LPBank and Eximbank could see profits decline due to higher loan-loss provisioning and narrower net interest margins. A State Bank of Vietnam survey shows 86.1% of credit institutions expect 2026 pre-tax profit to grow, while 10.4% anticipate a decline.
