Subject of the Disclosure
PSBank Posts All-time High Net Income of Php 4.53 Billion, Up 23% in 2023
Background/Description of the Disclosure
PSBank, the thrift banking arm of the Metrobank Group, reported a record-high net income of Php 4.53 billion for the full year 2023, up 23% from Php 3.68 billion in 2022. This translates to a return on equity of 11.7%. The Bank’s strong financial performance came from the double-digit growth in loans, higher investment revenues and muted costs brought by operational efficiencies. Net interest income improved to Php 11.83 billion, increasing by 7% year-on-year while operating expenses declined by 1% due to continuous cost optimization efforts of the Bank.
"This significant milestone was a result of team work and steadfast commitment of PSBankers in delivering effortless banking to our clients and stakeholders. We want to leverage on this momentum to expand our coverage, provide diversified offerings and further invest in technology to level up customer experience in the succeeding years”, President Jose Vicente L. Alde said.
PSBank’s gross loan portfolio expanded by 12% to Php 125 billion from previous year’s Php 112 billion. Auto loans grew by 24% driven by higher demand on vehicles. Despite the increase in the Bank’s loan portfolio, gross non-performing loans ratio decreased year-on-year from 3.5% to 3.3% at the end of 2023, indicating better credit quality.
As of December 31, 2023, total assets closed at Php 238 billion while total deposits reached Php 190 billion. The Bank’s capital registered at Php 40 billion with total capital adequacy ratio and common equity tier 1 ratio at a sturdy level of 24.5% and 23.6%, respectively. The capital ratios are above the minimum levels set by the Bangko Sentral ng Pilipinas and among the highest in the industry.
