● PROVISION HEAVY
Securities House Picture
On a TTM basis through 2026Q1, pre-tax profit is currently about 522.0bn, equivalent to a pre-tax margin of 41.0%, but earnings quality is still being dragged down by provisioning, while margin has narrowed by 14.5pp, pointing to greater pressure on earnings quality. The revenue mix is now leaning more toward lending at 61.8% after expanding by +7.2pp, while trading is down to 14.8% after narrowing by 6.6pp; brokerage and services are still 23.4% but have narrowed by 0.6pp, so diversification needs closer monitoring. On the balance sheet, Equity / Assets is 34.7% while Leverage is about 1.88x, indicating that buffers and funding are not yet truly roomy, but buffers have thinned while leverage has risen further.

Financial Highlights
Detailed analysis of each financial dimension
Is revenue sustainable?
Revenue Mix & Earnings Engine
Where are current earnings coming from?
Current earnings lean more heavily on margin lending, so the quality of the revenue engine should be read together with margin-book dependence.
Margin income currently accounts for about 61.8%, trading is at 14.8%, brokerage and services together remain around 23.4% of the engine mix.
When lending is the main engine, headline quality depends more heavily on margin-book safety and funding cost.
Revaluation is currently a drag rather than a standalone headline driver.
The revenue headline should be read together with leakage into provisioning and net margin, not just the surface mix.
Key risks
Provision load is large enough relative to revenue to weaken the quality of the earnings engine.

Profitability Quality & Volatility
How strong is current profitability, and how durable is it?
Profit remains positive, but quality is no longer clean because provisioning is materially eroding headline returns.
Pre-tax margin is currently 41.0%, Return on assets is about 3.4%, provisions equal 79.2% of pre-tax profit, revaluation accounts for -22.5% of pre-tax profit.
Headline profit needs a discount because provisioning is eating into core returns.
Profit remains sensitive to revaluation swings.
Provisioning is a meaningful drag on profit.
Key risks
Provision load relative to PBT is high enough to weigh on profitability quality.

Are assets at risk?
Balance Sheet Quality & Asset Composition
Where is the balance sheet exposed, and how resilient does it look?
The balance sheet is leaning more toward the margin book, so growth quality depends meaningfully on the safety of loans and receivables.
The margin book is about 47.8% of assets, the prop book about 45.3%, liquid assets around 4.9%, equity roughly 34.7%.
A high margin-book share makes the balance sheet more sensitive to asset quality and funding cost.
The margin book is larger than the prop book.
Capital buffer is not the main weakness for now, so the key reading point shifts to which assets are driving the balance sheet.
Key risks
Loans and receivables are large enough to make the balance sheet more sensitive to asset quality and funding cost.
A high share of FVTPL assets increases sensitivity to market revaluation and trading volatility.

Is leverage safe?
Capital, Funding & Risk Posture
Are capital buffers and funding posture sufficiently safe?
Short-term funding is the tighter part of the balance sheet, even if the case is not yet in outright capital stress.
Equity currently equals 34.7% of assets, liabilities stand at 1.88x of equity, short-term borrowings are about 63.6% of assets, cash covers roughly 0.08x of short-term borrowings.
The point that needs the closest reading now is short-term funding structure rather than the earnings headline.
Risk is coming more from short-term funding, so the key reading point is not just borrowing size but cash and liquid-asset cover.
Liquidity buffer is not yet thick enough relative to short-term funding needs.
Key risks
Short-term borrowings or cash coverage are in a range that creates more pressure on funding and liquidity posture.

Investment Takeaway
Overall, FTS is still profitable, but headline quality is being pulled down more clearly by provisioning, so earnings should be read with caution.
Brokerage and service income are now large enough to reduce pure dependence on trading or margin.
Profit is still positive, but provisioning is large enough to make earnings durability less certain.
Provisioning is now large enough that headline profitability should be read with more caution.
