Quarterly reporting Fifth Third Bancorp (FITB) was better than expected and in terms of profits, and in terms of income. The main reasons for such a good quarter were made by the bank"s noninterest income and a significant reduction in reserve to cover the debt problem, which blocked the negative effect of relatively high non-interest expenses of the issuer. A positive surprise in EPS amounted to more than 35%, and the EPS in the IV quarter amounted to $ 0.2, while a positive surprise to the Bank"s income amounted to 4.7%, while revenues exceeded the bank"s $ 1.5 billion The quality of loans, like other banks, is improving. Quality, of course, still poor, but in the current circumstances, from our point of view, anything less is bad - is good. Write-offs of loan portfolio in annual terms in the IV quarter amounted to 3.62%, or 13 b. § less than in the previous quarter, with write-offs declined in the portfolio of consumer and commercial loans. In absolute terms, the bank wrote off loans at almost 6.5% lower than in the previous quarter. The share of non-performing loans in the portfolio, and even grew by 7 b. n. in the past quarter, but its rate of growth has slowed significantly. Currently NPL ratio is 3.82%. More important, from our point of view, is the dynamics of reserve to cover the debt problem. This element in the IV quarter decreased by 18.5%, which, in our view, reflects the positive trends in loan portfolio quality. The Bank has a relatively high level of capital adequacy, and management operates fairly conservative in respect of its loan portf1000olio, so much sense so seriously reduce the cost of provisions in the absence of trends to improve the quality of the loan portfolio, it was not.
