KEY HIGHLIGHTS
- August profit reached IDR 137.2Bn (+127.2% MoM), lifting 8M26 earnings to IDR 2.2Tn (+8.1% YoY). Monthly PPOP rose 61.6% as NII increased 19.7%. YoY comparisons include the UUS carve-out.
- August provisions increased 42.9% MoM to IDR 319.8Bn. Annualised credit cost reached 1.1%, versus 0.7% YTD; lower YTD provisions remain the main earnings support.
- Conventional loans grew 2.4% MoM, while deposits fell 2.3%. LDR rose to 96.4% from 91.9%. Monthly funding cost increased to 5.1% from 4.7%, despite an improved CASA mix.
- Our read: cautious on the recovery. P/BV of 0.44x is below -1 SD (0.48x) and the 5-year mean (0.62x), but Bank Only annualised book RoE on average adjusted equity fell to 11.1%. Profit reaches 54.1% of consolidated FY26F consensus versus 66.7% pace. Key watch: whether pension-loan income can offset higher funding costs and keep NIM improving as provisions normalise.
