Bulls say / Bears say
Third-quarter operating profit rose 10% from the previous quarter, return on equity improved to 13.5% and the cost-to-income ratio fell to 42.3%. The zero credit-loss ratio and lower expenses point to resilient operating performance. (Handelsbanken)
The savings business is becoming a stronger earnings stream: fee income rose 12% year on year, while assets under management reached a record on strong net inflows and higher market values. That helps offset pressure on lending income. (Investing.com)
The CET1 ratio was 17.0%, 2.5 percentage points above the regulatory requirement, and the bank expects its newly approved household risk model to reduce required capital by about SEK 3bn. It also anticipated SEK 8.02 per share in dividends for the first nine months. (Handelsbanken)
Net interest income, the bank’s largest revenue source, fell 5% year on year in Q3 and came in below analysts’ expectations. Operating profit was also down 4% year on year, showing that the sequential recovery has not reversed the underlying pressure. (Affärsvärlden, Handelsbanken)
Loan growth remains weak in important Nordic markets: Reuters reported sluggish lending in Sweden and falling lending in Norway, while Q3 growth was led mainly by the UK and the Netherlands. That limits the scope to offset margin pressure with stronger lending volumes at home. (Stockopedia, Handelsbanken)
Nine-month results included a SEK 1.13bn VAT recovery, but adjusted operating profit still fell 8% year on year. This one-off income flatters reported earnings and highlights weaker underlying performance. (Handelsbanken)
