â–²(19.29% Upside)
Action:Reiterated
Date:05/30/26
The score is driven primarily by mixed financial quality: strong profitability recovery is tempered by persistently high leverage and, most importantly, sharply negative operating/free cash flow in recent years. Technicals are constructive with a clear uptrend and positive momentum, while valuation is moderately supportive with a mid-range P/E and a modest dividend yield.
Positive Factors
Geographic footprint in Asia, Africa and Middle East
Standard Chartered's concentrated presence across Asia, Africa and the Middle East is a durable competitive advantage: these regions host structural trade and payment flows that support transaction banking, trade finance and FX income. A deep regional footprint sustains fee diversity and client relationships over cycles.
Negative Factors
Severely negative operating and free cash flow
A sustained swing to deeply negative operating and free cash flow (~-27bn in 2025) materially weakens earnings quality and funding self-sufficiency. Persistent negative cash generation constrains capital returns, forces external funding, and limits capacity to build buffers against credit or market stress over the medium term.

Standard Chartered Earnings Call Summary
Earnings Call Date:Feb 24, 2026
(Q4-2025)
| % Change Since: |
Next Earnings Date:Jul 30, 2026
Earnings Call Sentiment Positive
The call conveyed a strongly positive operational and financial performance for 2025: record income, high underlying RoTE (14.7%), robust non‑interest income growth, market‑leading Wealth momentum (24% growth, $52bn net new money) and material shareholder returns (dividend +65%, $1.5bn buyback). Management acknowledged near-term headwinds—Q4 episodic volatility, NII pressure (flat for 2026 driven by rate movements and WRB portfolio actions), a moderate increase in credit impairment and a down‑revision to Fit for Growth targets—but these were framed as manageable within a resilient balance sheet, improving cost/income dynamics and strong capital generation. Overall, the highlights substantially outweigh the lowlights, with confidence in execution and updated 2026 targets presented alongside continued investment in growth and productivity.Positive Updates
Record Annual Income and Strong Profitability
Record annual income of $20.9 billion (management: +8% YoY). Underlying profit before tax of $7.9 billion, up 18% YoY, and underlying return on tangible equity (RoTE) of 14.7% (includes ~70 bps from Ventures). Reported profit before tax was $7.0 billion and statutory RoTE was 11.9%.
Negative Updates
Soft Q4 Episodic Income and Quarterly Volatility
Q4 income was broadly flat as episodic income in Global Markets was a small negative (Q4 net episodic ~ -$16 million) and materially weaker versus the prior year; management notes episodic income is volatile quarter-to-quarter.

Company Guidance
Guidance for 2026: the bank expects year‑on‑year income growth around the bottom end of its historical 5–7% range at constant currency, with adjusted NII broadly flat and reported costs broadly flat at ~ $13.3bn (constant currency), targeting a statutory RoTE of >12%. This builds off a 2025 base of $20.9bn income (record; up 8% YoY or up 6%/8% excluding notable items), underlying RoTE 14.7% (including ~70bps benefit from Ventures), reported RoTE 11.9%, underlying PBT $7.9bn (reported PBT $7.0bn, +18%), and FY NII $11.2bn (+1%, Q4 NII ~+$200m q/q). 2026 NII guidance assumes a ~44bp reduction in currency‑weighted rates and c.2% headwind from WRB portfolio actions; non‑NII grew 13% (17% ex‑notables) in 2025. Capital and returns assumptions: RWAs $258bn (+4%), CET1 14.1% (pro‑forma 13.5% after a new $1.5bn buyback), $1.5bn buyback announced, full‑year dividend per share up 65% YoY, and $9.1bn of shareholder distributions since 2024 (exceeding the $8bn target). Cost and efficiency: operating expenses +4% in 2025, cost/income improved 80bps to 59%, delivered 4% positive income‑to‑cost jaws, Fit for Growth CTA now expected ~ $1.3bn (vs $1.5bn prior) after ~ $700m spent and >$700m run‑rate savings. Credit and funding: 2025 credit impairment $676m (LLR 19bps; expected to normalize toward 30–35bps through the cycle), underlying customer deposits +12%, high‑risk assets down $1bn q/q and early alerts down $1.5bn.Standard Chartered Financial Statement Overview
