The earnings call revealed both strengths and challenges for EQB. While the company experienced strong loan origination and growth in EQ Bank customers, it faced significant issues with elevated provision for credit losses, lower earnings from securitization, and reduced ROE. The mixed performance in critical areas like credit quality and revenue streams suggests a cautious outlook for the near term.

During EQB's earnings call for the second quarter of 2025, the company provided detailed guidance on various metrics. EQB's single-family uninsured portfolio grew by 2% quarter-over-quarter, translating to $379 million. The insured construction portfolio increased by 10% quarter-over-quarter, while term loans under management rose by 6% over the same period, equating to nearly a 29% year-over-year increase.

Earnings per share (EPS) were recorded at $2.31 for the quarter and $5.29 for the first half. Provisions for credit losses (PCLs) increased, totaling $29 million, primarily due to the challenging macroeconomic environment, with Stage 3 PCLs at $23.2 million, largely associated with equipment financing.
