Summary
The FY26 Result Investor Presentation for Judo Capital Holdings Limited highlights significant growth and financial performance, with an emphasis on maintaining a strong deposit franchise and optimizing funding. The company reported an 18% increase in Gross Loans and Advances (GLA) and a net interest margin (NIM) of 3.13%. Operating expenses increased by 7%, primarily due to recruitment and wage inflation. Despite these increases, Judo achieved a 34% rise in profit before tax. The asset quality saw some impairments, with provisions adjusted for sector-specific risks. Judo's strategic priorities include enhancing its core business, optimizing funding and costs, and targeting above-system growth in GLA. The company aims for profitability with a return on equity (ROE) in the low-to-mid-teens at scale. Macroeconomic conditions are mixed, with resilience in SME credit demand, despite broader economic uncertainties.
