Bawag: Austrian banking group Bawag reported a strong profit before tax of Euro 127 mn and net profit of Euro 97 mn, up 9% and 12% respectively versus the prior year, for the first quarter 2019. Normalizing for the front-loaded regulatory charges, profit before tax was Euro 151 mn and net profit Euro 116 mn, up 6% and 8% respectively versus the prior year. The increase was primarily driven by higher core revenues as well as lower operating expenses and risk costs. The cost-income ratio of 42.4% remained below the target for 2019 of under 43%. The return on tangible common equity came in at 12.0%. The fully loaded CET1 ratio increased to 14.9%, up 40 basis points versus year-end 2018 after absorbing the impact of IFRS 16 implementation as well as the Swiss M&A. Taking into account normalized regulatory charges, the proposed share buyback of up to Euro 400 mn, the recently paid 2018 dividend of Euro 215 mn as well as the dividend accrual for Q1 2019, the pro forma return on tangible common equity would be at 17.8% and the CET1 ratio at 12.7%, in line with our stated targets.
Bawag: weekly performance: 2.89%
