It declined compared to 1H2018 mainly due to accounting specifics of FX perpetual subordinated Eurobonds in Tier I capital on the back of Rouble appreciation in the 1H2019. This had a negative effect on net income and, in a similar amount, positive effect on revaluation of capital. In terms of general change in capital, the effect was neutral. Net income was also impacted by growing provisioning charges, which reached RUB 5.6 bln and were mostly made in 1Q2019 due to the deteriorated financial condition of a large corporate borrower.</p> <p><strong>Net interest income </strong>was RUB 19.0 bln, <strong>net interest margin </strong>for 1H2019 stayed at 1.9% like in 1Q. The margin remains under pressure as highly liquid assets dominate the balance sheet structure and the deposit base is expanding. <strong>Net interest income after provisions</strong> was RUB 13.5 bln.</p> <p><strong>Fee and commission income </strong>grew by 2.7% yoy to RUB 7.5 bln because cash operations income, including cash handling income, rose by 37.3% to RUB 1.5 bln. <strong>Net fee and commission income </strong>was RUB 5.6 bln.</p> <p><strong>Operating income (before provisions) </strong>was RUB 13.2 bln. <strong>Operating expense </strong>increased by 17.8% yoy to RUB 10.7 bln as payroll budget grew by 27.3% to RUB 7.8 bln due to general expansion of the bank’s business.</p> <p><strong>Total assets</strong> amounted to RUB 2.1 tln.</p> <p><strong>Gross loan portfolio</strong> shrank by 4.7% to RUB 705.2 bln due to big repayments in the second quarter, weaker demand from corporate borrowers in the market, and currency revaluation. However, rouble-nominated loans rose by 8.0% in 1H2019. The share of corporate loans in the total loan portfolio was 85.7%, while its retail portion grew to 14.3%. Retail loans grew by 4.7% to RUB 101.1 bln due to a 13.0% increase in mortgage lending to RUB 23.4 bln and a 2.6% increase in unsecured consumer lending to RUB 74.1 bln.</p> <p><strong>Loan portfolio</strong> <strong>quality </strong>is maintained at a stable high level, as evidenced by a reduction in the cost of risk by 1.5 pp to 1.7% in 2Q. The NPL90+ coverage ratio was 142.2%. The NPL90+ ratio grew from 1.6% to 3.9% (growth by 1.4 pp in 2Q2019) mostly due to the deteriorated financial condition of a large corporate borrower, as was the case with 1Q2019.</p> <p><strong>Customer deposits</strong>, which represent 62.5% of the bank’s total liabilities or RUB 1,204.6 bln, decreased by 5.3% ytd, having grown, however, by 5.4% in 2Q. Retail deposits increased by 16.6% to RUB 437.2 bln, the growth being observed in both term and demand deposits. Corporate deposits shrank by 14.5% ytd to RUB 767.4 bln, however they expanded by 5.4% in 2Q. The ratio of net loans to deposits dropped to 55.3% as at the end of 1H2019.</p> <p><strong>The Basel III capital adequacy ratio </strong>remained at a high level of 21.0% and the Tier I capital ratio was 13.6%. The Bank’s total capital according to the Basel standards decreased by 2.4% in 1H2019 to RUB 290.3 bln, mostly due to currency revaluation and dividend payments.</p> <p> </p> <div class="footnotes"> <div class="footnotes__item"> <sup class="footnote">1</sup> $1 = RUB 63.0756, CBR’s exchange rate as at 30.06.2019 </div>
