▲(7.51% Upside)
Action:ReiteratedDate:03/26/26
The score is driven by strong earnings-call fundamentals (record income, solid profitability and shareholder returns) and reasonable valuation, partially offset by deteriorating cash-flow quality and high leverage in the financials, plus weak current technical momentum.
Positive Factors
Profitability recovery
A clear earnings recovery and elevated RoTE indicate the bank is using capital more efficiently and generating stronger core earnings. Durable profitability supports reinvestment, capital returns and resilience to cyclical dips, underpinning long-term franchise value.
Negative Factors
Deteriorating cash flow quality
The shift from positive to deeply negative operating and free cash flows introduces structural risk: it undermines the sustainability of dividends/buybacks, increases reliance on external funding, and constrains flexibility for investment or loss absorption if it persists.

Standard Chartered Earnings Call Summary

Earnings Call Date:Feb 24, 2026
(Q4-2025)
|
% Change Since: |
Next Earnings Date:Apr 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

Summary
Income statement shows a clear earnings recovery and improved margins/ROE, but this is meaningfully offset by very weak cash-flow quality (operating and free cash flow turning sharply negative in 2023–2025) and persistently elevated leverage (debt-to-equity ~1.95x in 2025).
