Revenue Growth AccelerationRevenue accelerated into FY2026 (≈27%), following solid growth in FY2024–FY2025. Sustained top-line expansion is a durable indicator of stronger loan/deposit activity and product uptake in the core region, supporting recurring earnings and capacity to fund growth or provisions over time.
Material Margin ImprovementProfitability improved materially with net margin near 19% and EBIT margin around 26% in FY2026. Higher and more sustainable margins enhance internal capital generation, improve the bank's shock absorption, and raise the baseline for future earnings even if revenue growth moderates.
Improving Capitalisation And LeverageEquity increased meaningfully between FY2023 and FY2026 and leverage has improved, leaving the group reasonably capitalized for a regional bank. Stronger capitalization provides a durable buffer for credit cycles, regulatory requirements, and supports continued lending and strategic flexibility.
