The banking sector had anticipated stable to modest growth in core income and asset quality improvements. Federal Bank met expectations on credit growth, deposit mobilisation, and CASA improvements. However, the 15% YoY drop in net profit fell short of industry expectations due to elevated provisions, particularly in the microfinance portfolio.
Management emphasised continued focus on profitability, diversification of income streams, and digital expansion. Key takeaways include:
Profit per Employee: ₹21 lakh
Business per Employee: ₹32.60 crore
Digital Push: 93% of retail and corporate transactions are serviced digitally
Asset Quality: Elevated slippages in MFI, but overall asset quality remains well-contained with GNPA at 1.91% and NNPA at 0.48%
Capital Position: Comfortable with CRAR at 16.03%
The management also reaffirmed its strategy of balancing growth with prudence and indicated that digital innovation and partnerships will be the cornerstones for future expansion.
