Bank of Georgia (LSE: BGEO, GSE: GEB) (the “Bank”), Georgia’s leading bank, announced today its Q1 2011 consolidated results (IFRS based, derived from management accounts), reporting a Q1 2011 Net Income excluding Extraordinary Item of GEL 30.6 million, or GEL 0.97 per share.

In Q1 2011, the Bank’s Extraordinary Item of GEL 13.7 million was related to the disposal of BG Bank Ukraine. The Extraordinary Item included GEL 31.2 million accumulated FX loss on investment, GEL 5.7 million realized loss at disposal and GEL 23.2 million income tax benefit related to the disposal. The FX loss of GEL 31.2 million that was related to the Ukrainian Hryvna devaluation has already been recorded in the Shareholders’ Equity in 2008, 2009 and 2010, respectively. For the presentation purposes, GEL 31.2 million of accumulated FX loss recorded in the previous years has been moved from Revaluation Reserves to P&L in Q1 2011 with no effect on the Total Shareholders’ Equity. This reclassification was the main driver of the increase in Revaluation Reserves item under Shareholders’ Equity and consequently a negative impact on the P&L through the Extraordinary Item in Q1 2011. The accounting treatment of the one-off Extraordinary Item related to BG Bank disposal in Q1 2011 carries limited economic value for the Bank, therefore, Q1 2011 consolidated results and result discussions in this report exclude the Extraordinary Item. For the results discussion on a comparable basis please refer to Bank of Georgia standalone results, which do not include the BG Bank’s results for all the periods discussed

Q1 2011 highlights

  • Q1 2011 consolidated Return on Average Equity (ROAE)8 grew to 17.7%, up from the consolidated ROAE of 16.7% in Q4 2010 as a result of strong Q1 2011 Net Income (excluding Extraordinary Item) of GEL 30.6 million.
  • Consolidated Net Interest Margin (NIM) declined from 7.9% in Q4 2010 to 7.1% in Q1 2011 due to excess liquidity. NIM adjusted for excess liquidity stood at 8.3% in Q1 2011.
    • Cost of funds declined to 7.5% in Q1 2011 from 7.9% in Q4 2010 and 8.6% in Q1 2010, a result of the deposit yield decline to 6.6% in Q1 2011 from 7.2% in Q4 2010 and 7.9% in Q1 2010.
  • Loan yield declined to 19.3% in Q1 2011 from 19.6% in Q4 2010 and 20.1% in Q1 2010.
  • Q1 2011 consolidated operating leverage grew to 20.0% on a y-o-y basis, while standalone operating leverage stood at 20.2% on a y-o-y basis during the same period.
  • Q1 2011 standalone Profit Before Provisions grew 55.3% y-o-y to GEL 42.5 million, down 7.2% q-o-q
  • Consolidated loan book quality improved as consolidated NPLs declined from GEL 117.6 million in Q4 2011 to GEL 90.3 million in Q1 2011. Consolidated NPL coverage ratio stood at 132.2% in Q1 2011 compared to 151.0% in Q4 2010.
  • Standalone Net Loan Book increased by 0.6% q-o-q to GEL 2,215.1 million, up 30.3% y-o-y. In nominal terms, Standalone Net Loan Book grew 3.6% q-o-q.
  • Standalone Client Deposits increased 8.7% q-o-q to GEL 1,966.5 million, up 57.1% y-o-y. In nominal terms, Standalone Client Deposits increased 10.5% q-o-q.
  • Net Loans to Client Deposits Ratio declined to 113.4% in Q1 2011, on a consolidated basis from 117.8% in Q4 2010 and 127.5% in Q1 2010.

“Seasonally economically inactive quarter and 3.9% appreciation of Georgian Lari in Q1 2011 resulted in only 0.6% q-o-q net loan book growth on a standalone basis. In nominal terms (constant GEL/US$ exchange rate), the standalone Bank of Georgia net loan book grew 3.6% q-o-q in Q1 2011. As we continue to observe strong FX inflow into the Georgian economy, the client deposit growth rate reached 8.7% in Q1 2011. However, in nominal terms, the growth was even greater at 10.5%.

Consolidated book value grew by GEL 45.0 million in Q1 2011, driven by GEL 16.9 consolidated net income after extraordinary item and by GEL 25.0 million increase in revaluation reserves that was primarily driven by BG Bank disposal. Therefore, the book value per share increased by 6.5% q-o-q to GEL 23.52 in Q1 2011. The book value per share in US dollar terms increased by 10.6% q-o-q US$ 13.79 in Q1 2011, as Lari continued to appreciate during the quarter.

The decline of the consolidated Net Interest Margin to 7.1% from 7.9% in Q4 2010 was driven by excess liquidity, which continued to increase during Q1 2011. NIM normalized for excess liquidity remained essentially flat at 8.3% in Q1 2011 compared to the Q4 2011 normalized NIM as the contraction of cost of funds from 7.9% in Q4 2010 to 7.5% in Q1 2011 offset the decline of loan yield from 19.6% in Q4 2010 to 19.3% in Q1 2011. The decrease of cost of funds during the quarter was driven by the decline of deposit yields from 7.2% in Q4 2010 and 7.9% in Q1 2010 to 6.6% in Q1 2011.

Despite the decline of consolidated NIM, Q1 2011 operating leverage both on a consolidated and standalone basis, exceeded 20% level on a year-on-year basis. Consolidated revenue grew 20.1%y-o-y, while costs were largely flat compared to the same period last year, mostly due to the BG Bank disposal. On a standalone basis, revenue grew 31.7% y-o-y, while costs grew 11.3% y-o-y for the same period. Pre-provision profit grew by 57.6% y-o-y on a consolidated and 55.3% y-o-y on a standalone basis.

We observed further decline in NPLs in Q1 2011 on consolidated basis, which translated into significant improvements in cost of risk. On a consolidated basis cost of risk declined to 0.8% in Q1 2011 from 1.8% in Q4 2010. Improvements in efficiency and cost of risk combined with the BG Bank’s disposal, resulted in the Q1 2011 Net Income growth by 82.4% on a year-on-year and 19.0% growth on quarter-on-quarter basis, boosting basic EPS growth from GEL 0.82 in Q4 2010 to GEL 0.97 in Q1 2011. In US dollar terms, the EPS growth was even sharper as it grew 23.6% q-o-q from US$0.46 to US$0.57”, commented Giorgi Chiladze, Deputy Chief Executive Officer, Finance.

Q1 2011 summary of the Bank’s consolidated results

In Q1 2011, the Bank’s Total Operating Income (Revenue) increased 20.1% y-o-y to GEL 91.1 million, driven by 25.7% y-o-y growth of Net Interest Income to GEL 56.9 million and 11.7% y-o-y growth of Net Non-Interest Income to GEL 34.2 million. On a quarterly basis, Revenue was down by 4.3% due to the exclusion of revenues generated by BG Bank following its disposal, 1.0% q-o-q decline in Net Interest Income, a result of excess liquidity that kept growing during the quarter and the 9.3% q-o-q decline of Net Non-Interest Income. The decline in Non-Interest income was related to both BG Bank disposal and the seasonality slowdown of business activity in the first quarter of the year compared to the preceding quarter. The strong client deposit growth rate on a standalone basis (8.7% q-o-q) during the quarter, which outpaced the standalone Net Loan Book growth rate (0.6% q-o-q) resulted in the further increase in excess liquidity of the Bank on a consolidated basis, bringing down the Q1 2011 Net Interest Margin (NIM) to 7.1% from the NIM of 7.9% in Q4 2010.

On a year-on-year basis, the Bank’s 11.7% y-o-y growth of Q1 2011 Net Non-Interest Income was driven by the growth of most of the non-interest income items compared to the same period last year. Net Fees and Commission Income grew 16.2% y-o-y to GEL 12.0 million (down 14.6% q-o-q), Net Income from Documentary Operations grew by 60.9% y-o-y to GEL 3.5 million, (up 7.4% q-o-q) and Net Foreign Currency Related Income increased 30.2% y-o-y to GEL 9.6 million, (up 1.3% q-o-q). Net Other Non-Interest Income amounted to GEL 9.2 million, down 15.2% y-o-y, as the decline in net investment gains more than offset the 12.0% y-o-y growth of Net Insurance Income to GEL 4.7 million (down 6.0% q-o-q) and 61.8% y-o-y growth of Brokerage Income to GEL 0.4 million (down 72.3% q-o-q).

Total Consolidated Recurring Operating Costs for the quarter decreased by 7.2% q-o-q to GEL 47.3 million, (up 2.2% y-o-y), with the decline partially attributed to the BG Bank disposal. Personnel Costs on a consolidated basis decreased 5.1% q-o-q to GEL 25.7 million, representing 28.2% of the Bank’s Revenue, down from 30.8% in Q1 2010. Normalized Net Operating Income of GEL 43.8 million was up 48.0% y-o-y (down 1.0% q-o-q), resulting in the improved consolidated Normalized Cost/Income Ratio of 51.9% compared to the Normalized Cost/Income ratio of 53.5% in Q4 2010 and 61.0% in Q1 2010.

The Bank’s consolidated Net Provision Expense for the quarter declined to GEL 5.2 million, down from Net Provision Expense of GEL 10.8 million and GEL 7.4 million in Q4 2010 and Q1 2010, respectively. Consolidated Cost of Risk for the quarter stood at 0.8% a decrease from 1.8% in Q4 2010.

On 31 March 2011, the Bank’s consolidated Total Assets stood at GEL 4,049.2 million, up 29.6% y-o-y and down 1.2% from 31 December 2010 when Total Assets included BG Bank’s assets. Reflecting the disposal of BG Bank, the Bank’s consolidated Net Loan Book was down by 5.4% q-o-q to GEL 2,241.9 million, up 26.1% y-o-y, while consolidated Client Deposits of GEL 1,976.9 million were 1.7% lower than at 31 December 2010, and 41.8% higher than consolidated Client Deposits on 31 March 2010. In Q1 2011 Loan Loss Reserves of GEL 119.3 million declined to 5.1% of consolidated Gross Loan Book from 7.0% in Q4 2010. Consolidated NPLs of GEL 90.3 million improved considerably by 23.2% q-o-q, reflecting the exclusion of BG Bank’s NPLs in Q1 2011. As of 31 March 2011, consolidated NPLs represented 3.8% of the consolidated gross Loan Book down from the same ratio of 4.6% in Q4 2010. The consolidated NPL Coverage ratio for the quarter stood at 132.2%.

The Bank’s consolidated Book Value per Share on 31 March 2011 stood at GEL 23.52 (US$ 13.79), compared to GEL 22.10 (US$ 12.46) as at 31 December 2010 and GEL 19.53 (US$ 11.17) as of 31 March 2010.

JSC Bank of Georgia (standalone) results

Bank of Georgia on a standalone basis reported Q1 2011 Net Income before Extraordinary Item of GEL 31.5 million, an increase of GEL 18.7 million, or 145.7%, compared to the standalone Net Income in Q1 2010. Q1 2011 Net Income grew by GEL 1.6 million, or 5.5%, compared to the Q4 2010 standalone Net Income.

In Q1 2011 all revenue items contributed to the 31.7% year-on-year growth of the standalone Total Operating Income (Revenue) to GEL 78.2 million. The growth was driven by 29.7% y-o-y increase of Net Interest Income to GEL 55.2 million, a result of the standalone loan book (net) growth of 30.3% y-o-y. On a quarterly basis, standalone Net Interest Income grew 0.4% as the 6.0% q-o-q growth of Interest Income more than offset the 11.9% q-o-q growth of Interest Expense. The rise in interest expense during the quarter, was a result of strong q-o-q growth of standalone Client Deposits, which grew 8.7%-q-o-q outpacing the 0.6% q-o-q growth rate of standalone net loan book. As a result, the increased excess liquidity during the quarter led to the decline of standalone NIM to 7.2% in Q1 2011 from the standalone NIM of 8.0% in Q4 2010.

Standalone Net Non-Interest Income increased 36.9% y-o-y to GEL 23.0 million, driven by the 17.1% y-o-y growth of Net Fees and Commission Income to GEL 10.0 million, 64.4% y-o-y increase of Net Income from Documentary Operations to GEL 3.4 million and 60.1% y-o-y increase of Net Foreign Currency Related Income to GEL 9.0 million. Reflecting the seasonal slowdown of the overall business activity in the first quarter in 2011 compared the fourth quarter 2010, the standalone Net Non-Interest Income declined by 9.2% q-o-q, predominantly affected by the 15.3% decline of the Net Fees and Commission Income in Q1 2011. The 9.2% q-o-q decline of Net Non-Interest Income more than offset the 0.4% q-o-q growth of Net Interest Income resulting the 2.6% q-o-q decline in standalone Revenue compared to the prior quarter.

As a result of continued cost discipline in procurement process and operating expenses, Bank of Georgia’s standalone Q1 2011 Recurring Operating Costs of GEL 34.2 million grew 11.3% y-o-y, or by one third of the rate of the standalone Revenue growth for the same period. On a quarterly basis, standalone Operating Costs declined by 0.2%. Normalized Net Operating Income (NNOI) for the quarter reached GEL 44.0 million, up by GEL 15.4 million, or 53.7% y-o-y.

The improved efficiency and Revenue growth on a yearly basis translated into the standalone positive operating leverage of 20.2% y-o-y. Bank of Georgia’s standalone Cost/Income ratio stood at 45.6% in Q1 2011 compared to 42.9% in Q4 2010 and 53.9% in Q1 2010. Due to the combination of Loan Book growth and improved operating performance, Profit Before Provisions grew by 55.3% y-o-y to GEL 42.5 million, down 7.2% q-o-q. The Bank’s Net Provision Expense on a standalone basis decreased from GEL 9.5 million in Q4 2010 to GEL 5.6 million in Q1 2011.

As of 31 March 2011, Bank of Georgia’s standalone Total Assets stood at GEL 3.9 billion, up 29.7% y-o-y and down 0.3% q-o-q, predominantly due to the reduction in net Investments in Other Business Entities by GEL 175.9 million mostly related to the BG Bank’s disposal. Bank of Georgia’s standalone Net Loan Book increased 30.3% y-o-y to GEL 2,215.1 million driven by 35.9% y-o-y increase of the Corporate Net Loan Book to GEL 1,209.5 million and 25.5% y-o-y growth of Retail Net Loan Book to GEL 969.6 million. On a quarterly basis, standalone Net Loan Book increased by 0.6%, while in nominal terms, the q-o-q growth reached 3.6%. Standalone NPLs stood at GEL 87.6 million and represented 3.8% of the total gross loan book, an increase from the same ratio of 3.5% in Q4 2010, when the NPLs amounted to GEL 81.2 million on a standalone basis.

As of the Q1 2011, the standalone Client Deposits amounted to GEL 1,966.5 million, representing an increase of GEL 158.0 million, or 8.7% during Q1 2011, up GEL 715.0 million, or 57.1% y-o-y. In nominal terms, the standalone Client Deposits growth amounted to 10.5% q-o-q. The growth was primarily driven by the Retail and Wealth Management Client Deposits, which grew 12.7% q-o-q and 47.0% y-o-y and 11.1% q-o-q and 61.0% y-o-y, respectively. The CB Client Deposits were up 6.0% q-o-q and 62.5% y-o-y.

Discussion of results

In Q1 2011, RB Revenues decreased 9.4% q-o-q (up 29.7% y-o-y) to GEL 42.5 million, driven predominantly by the 7.8% q-o-q decline and 33.3% y-o-y growth of RB Net Interest Income to GEL 31.4 million. RB Interest Expense grew 8.3% q-o-q to GEL 28.1 million, while RB Interest Income declined 0.8% q-o-q to GEL 59.5 million as RB client deposits continued to grow during the quarter as compared to the RB loan book which remained largely flat. RB Loan Yield Excluding Provisions grew from 23.4% in Q4 2010 to 23.5% in Q1 2011. RB Net Non-Interest Income during the quarter decreased by 13.8% q-o-q (up 20.5% y-o-y) to GEL 11.1 million, mostly driven by 13.4% q-o-q decrease of RB Net Fee and Commission Income to GEL 8.5 million, up 17.5%- y-o-y. The decline was attributed to the seasonality effect. The year-on-year growth was a result of the successful diversification of fee income sources in 2010. Continuing the trend of previous quarter, RB Recurring Operating Costs decreased by 2.9% q-o-q to GEL 21.9 million (up 8.1% y-o-y). RB Net Provision Reversal in Q1 2011 amounted to GEL 4.4 million, compared to the Net Provision Expense of GEL 4.8 million in Q4 2010. RB Net Income for Q1 2011 amounted to GEL 21.3 million, contributing 67.7% to the standalone Net Income.

RB Net Loans remained flat during Q1 2011 amounting GEL 969.6 million, up 25.5% y-o-y. The constrained growth of the RB loan book has been largely attributed to the decline in mortgage lending compared to the previous quarters, affected by the limited supply of new housing, a result of financial difficulties of the top real estate developers in the country. The mortgage loans issued in Q1 2011 amounted to GEL 27.8 million, down from GEL 35.0 million mortgage loans issued in Q4 2010 and GEL 55.2 million in Q3 2010. RB Client Deposits grew 12.7% q-o-q and 47.0% y-o-y to GEL 609.5 million, driven primarily by the growth of time deposits.

Discussion of results

CB Revenues increased 3.6% q-o-q to GEL 33.8 million (up 33.7% y-o-y), driven by the 8.5% q-o-q increase of Net Interest Income to GEL 22.2 million (up 23.0% y-o-y), as CB Interest Expense grew 20.8% q-o-q to GEL 30.5 million (up 41.7% y-o-y) and CB Interest Income grew 15.3% q-o-q to GEL 52.7 million (up 33.2% y-o-y).

Comment:

“Continued foreign currency inflow puts pressure on the Georgian Lari to appreciate, while the National Bank of Georgia’s balance sheet is getting stronger as net FX reserves continued to grow during the seasonally economically inactive quarter. Year-to-date Georgian Lari appreciated 7.1% against the US$. Strong macro fundamentals and growth trends of Georgian economy is translating into significant rerating of Georgia sovereign risk observed during the new Georgia Eurobond issuance in April 2011. The successful placement of new Georgia US$ 500 million 10-year benchmark Eurobonds in April 2011 was a clear demonstration of the increased investor confidence towards the country. The deal was 5.3 times oversubscribed by 149 accounts, which in turn translated into 7.125% yield or 357 bps over 10-year UST or 37.5 bps lower yield than the existing Georgia shorter term 2013 Eurobonds. The pricing also resulted in 148 bps tighter spread than the existing bond due 2013, which was traded at 494 bps over swaps prior to the new placement. The achieved pricing on the new 10-year Eurobond is materially inside the other recent and similarly rated sovereign issuance from the region.

Two noticeable trends are worth highlighting from bank’s performance in Q1 2011. Firstly, by achieving 17.7% ROAE in Q1 2011, we are getting closer to our target 20% plus ROAE. Secondly, structural improvement of the liability side of the balance sheet continues to demonstrate positive trends. Deposit growth rate continues to outpace loan book growth rate, which resulted in continuation of decreasing trend of net loan deposit ratio, which amounted to 113% in Q1 2011. This trend provides us with the opportunity to replace more expensive wholesale funding currently yielding 9.0% with cheaper deposits yielding 6.6%.

We continue our efficient growth path by achieving 20% plus operating leverage y-o-y in Q1 2011, while quality of loan book continues to improve with cost of risk decreasing to 0.8% in Q1 2011 on a consolidated basis from 1.8% in Q4 2010,” commented Irakli Gilauri, Chief Executive Officer.
