This report analyses the main trends in the Czech banking with a special focus on the 3Q2014's performance. In the 108-page report, you will find all the necessary details regarding profitability of the sector, breakdown and trends of the volume growth, market share, margin and asset quality development in the sector and within the particular segments of the market.

In addition, you will find here financials and market share of the 20 banks we cover in the Czech Republic including all key ratios describing their business. The report includes 446 charts and 40 tables.

The key points are:

• Czech commercial banks announced a net profit of CZK 14,387 mil in the third quarter of the year, up 3.5% compared to the same period last year. In the first nine months of the year, however, the banks' profit dropped 0.8% yoy to CZK 50,258 mil. This implies an annualised ROE of 11.6% for the last 12 months.
• Loans grew 0.6% qoq (or 5.2% yoy) in the third quarter. Mortgages still drive the volume growth (creating 90% of the loan growth in the 3rd quarter and 57% ytd) while corporate loans and consumer lending stagnate.
• The weak momentum is especially disappointing as the economy picks up. Banks are overcapitalized (CAR at 18%) and have plenty of cheap deposits to play with (with loans accounting for 76% of deposits only).
• In addition, asset quality remains of little concern. Non-performing loans account for 6.2% of total loans while half of them are covered by loan provisions.
• The trio of the largest banks (Sporitelna, CSOB and Komercni Banka) created 70% of the quarterly profit and 66% of loan growth in the third quarter of the year. Despite losing market share in revenue or overall assets, their market dominance continues. On the other hand, small players finally seem to be challenging the "boring" status quo.

This report analyses the performance of the Bank for the 3Q2014. You will find all the necessary details regarding volume growth, market share, margin and asset quality development in the Bank.

The key highlights are:

SSČS's profit falls 16.5%...

SSČS reported a net profit of CZK 102 mil. in 3Q2014, down 16.5% yoy compared to the same period last year. Despite the bottom line deterioration, the quarter provides quite a reassuring message - underlying revenue continues growing (net interest income up 14% yoy).

Otherwise, the quarter's profitability was marked by a number of one-off items such as a very high trading profit, an unusual fall in other expenses (the other leg of the trading profit?), or an extraordinarily high cost of risk (in spite of already good provision coverage of bad loans).

...but revenue continues growing...

An ongoing increase in net interest income is the key message of the quarter in our view. The 14% increase is a result of balance sheet re-pricing as both loans as well as deposits continued declining.

...as the balance sheet gets re-priced...

Unlike at ČMSS, the cause lies on the deposit side of the balance sheet. While the bank lost 17 bp in terms of asset yield, it "made" 22 bp on re-pricing of its liability side. In the third quarter alone, the cost of liabilities dropped nearly 21% yoy to CZK 409 mil. pushing the bank's net interest margin 7 bp up to 1.22% within the last four quarters.

There is still some way to go to catch ČMSS's margin of 1.41%. This is due mainly to the fact that Stavební Spořitelna České Spořitelny does not expose itself to loans as much as ČMSS (loans account for only 40% of total assets compared to 74% of its peer).

...and market share drops further

Falling market share on deposits is the price for the bank's strategy. In the last 12 months, the bank lost approximately 1% market share in building savings deposits to have 21.5% of the market.

While not a tragedy on its own (market share on loans has actually been increasing since the middle of 2013), the "monetisation" of the bank's client base could imply a new strategy of the bank - something we will watch in the coming quarters.

Asset quality questions

Stavební Spořitelna České Spořitelny has the worst asset quality of the building savings banks. At the end of September, non-performing loans accounted for 4.65% of total loans. That's compared to 3.38% within the sector.

Despite having only 40% of its assets placed in loans, loan provisions eat a third of the gross operating profit compared to a fifth in the sector.

Although well-covered by provisions (68% of NPLs), asset quality development (and the related cost of risk) is the second biggest issue to watch for.

This report analyses the building savings business in the Czech Republic for the 4Q2012. You will find all the necessary details regarding volume growth, market share, margin and asset quality development in the building savings (as well as mortgage lending segment). Also, the report compares profitability and efficiency ratio of the largest player CMSS with the main player in the mortgage lending business - Hypotecni Banka to find out how market dominance translates into economies of scale and superior profitability.

The key highlights from 4Q2012 we discuss in this report are:

• The business remains under pressure in spite of its impressive profitability. ROE fell to 15.2% in 2012 and net profit dropped 6% yoy in 4Q

• Lending continues to fall and is losing to mortgages. In 4Q12, the annual decline deepened to 3.3% yoy

• 4Q12 confirmed a recovery in terms of the number of new contracts sold, while deposits grew by a seasonally strong 3.2% qoq

• ČMSS remains the leader, but Raiffeisen grabs most of the growth

This report focuses specifically on development in Burinka in 4Q2012, the building savings bank of Ceska Sporitelna. The main conclusions are: 

Market position

Stavební Spořitelna České Spořitelny (also called Buřinka, a bowler) is the third largest building savings bank in terms of assets. Once the second largest building savings bank on the market (with a share of nearly 19% of lending in 2008), the subsidiary of Česká Spořitelna has been losing its position in housing lending as part of the overall strategy of Česká Spořitelna to retreat from the area of housing finance.

At the end of 2012, the bank held only 13.4% of the lending market. The bank therefore gave up a further 32 bp of its market share during the year; however, 4Q suggests a stabilisation of the bank’s position (flat qoq). On the deposit market, the bank still maintains an impressive 22% share, up 22 bp qoq but down 6 bp in 2012.

Because of the market’s slowdown and its weakening market position, the bank’s overall balance sheet momentum remains negative. Loans declined by a further 0.8% qoq in the last quarter and the full-year decline reached 5.6% yoy, while overall deposits increased 2.6% in 4Q, but dropped 0.3% in 2012.

Profitability

Until 2011, Stavební Spořitelna České Spořitelny had been the most profitable (measured by ROE) and the best capitalised (by capital adequacy ratio) building savings bank on the market.

However, despite the negative momentum the bank is facing and the fact that the bank’s net profit dropped 23% yoy in 2012, the bank still achieved an impressive ROE of 15.7% in 2012! This is a remarkable achievement given the fact that the bank’s capital adequacy has been exceeding 17%.

When adjusted for a surplus of capital (when ROE is adjusted to the building savings market average for each bank), Stavební Spořitelna České Spořitelny is still the third most profitable one on the market.

Buřinka’s numbers are especially impressive on the cost side, which we describe on the right. This might be a result of accounting, rather than of real efficiency.

Asset quality

Asset quality remains one of the weakest links of the bank. Non-performing loans rose CZK 79 mil, or 4.8%, in 4Q, the most on the market, and reached 4.13% of total loans (up from 3.72% at the end of 2011), which is the worst result within building savings  banks. Provision coverage remains relatively weak at nearly 52%, compared to the 53% of the market.

Cost-efficiency

Stavební Spořitelna České Spořitelny has been running its business 40-50% more efficiently than the rest of the market when measured by its costs-to-assets ratio in recent years. In 2012, the bank‘s operating costs amounted to 0.45% of average assets. compared to the 0.73% achieved by the market.

However good and efficient the bank is, we believe it has more to do with internal cost allocation within the Česká Spořitelna group, rather than with Buřinka’s underlying efficiency. Anyway, this, together with loan book development, are the main things to watch for here.

This report analyses the building savings business in the Czech Republic for the 4Q2012. You will find all the necessary details regarding volume growth, market share, margin and asset quality development in the building savings (as well as mortgage lending segment). Also, the report compares profitability and efficiency ratio of the largest player CMSS with the main player in the mortgage lending business - Hypotecni Banka to find out how market dominance translates into economies of scale and superior profitability.

The key highlights from 4Q2012 we discuss in this report are:

• The business remains under pressure in spite of its impressive profitability. ROE fell to 15.2% in 2012 and net profit dropped 6% yoy in 4Q

• Lending continues to fall and is losing to mortgages. In 4Q12, the annual decline deepened to 3.3% yoy

• 4Q12 confirmed a recovery in terms of the number of new contracts sold, while deposits grew by a seasonally strong 3.2% qoq

• ČMSS remains the leader, but Raiffeisen grabs most of the growth
