Q2 2026 Earnings Call Summary

Q2 2026
Earnings Call Date:Aug 19, 2026|

Earnings Call Sentiment|Positive
The call presented a mix of constructive operational and financial achievements—strong quarterly profitability improvement, upgraded adjusted ROE guidance, robust capital and liquidity, high stage 3 coverage and continued execution of a multi-year digital and product transformation—balanced against ongoing challenges: muted loan growth, a sequential rise in NPLs (notably in consumer), significant one-time restructuring charges, some compression in asset yields, and macro/political uncertainty heading into an election year. Management provided conservative forward guidance for loan growth and cost-of-risk while highlighting capacity to invest and pursue strategic opportunities.
Company Guidance
Management updated 2026 guidance raising adjusted ROE to about 12% (from ~8%) while reported ROE is guided around 9–10% for the year; they expect cost of risk to end 2026 near 6.5–7%, total NPLs to be ~5.5–6% (Stage 3 <4%) with Stage‑3 coverage to remain well above 100% (Q2 Stage‑3 coverage 148.8%) and total coverage not expected to fall below ~90% (Q2 coverage 95.4%). Loan growth was downgraded to roughly 2–5% real for 2026 (peso loans roughly tracking monthly inflation; USD lending ~2–2.5%/month; management assumes ~12–13% peso devaluation June–Dec), deposit growth is now targeted nearer ~10% real, liquidity remains ample (liquid assets ≈79% of deposits / ≈74% equivalent) and capital strong (Tier‑1 ~28% vs 11.5% requirement, ~ARS 2.7bn excess); margins should stay above ~20% NIM and restructurings (ARS 14.2bn after‑tax in Q2) will continue while the branch count is cut toward ~370 and headcount below 8k to fund digital/fee income initiatives.
Quarterly Net Income and ROE Improvement
Net income increased 39% quarter-on-quarter (and ~4% year-on-year) to ARS 206.8 billion (reported). Reported ROE rose to 13.4% and adjusted annualized ROE reached 14.3% (excludes ARS 14.2 billion after-tax restructuring charges). Management raised adjusted ROE guidance for 2026 to ~12% (from prior ~8%).
Strong Capital and Liquidity Position
Tier 1 ratio stood at 28% versus an 11.5% regulatory requirement. Liquid assets to total deposits increased to 79% and liquid assets represented ~74% of total deposits, providing capacity to support growth and strategic opportunities.
Asset Quality Still Above System Metrics
Reported NPLs were below system levels (Banco Macro reported ~6.25%-6.5% vs system ~7.7% as of May). Coverage remained healthy at 95.4%, above the system coverage of 86.3% (May), and Stage 3 loan coverage was very strong at ~148.8%.
Margin and Funding Improvements
Funding costs declined materially, with the average cost of interest-bearing liabilities falling below 20% and funding costs down ~550 basis points quarter-on-quarter (from 24% to 19%). Net interest income was broadly stable quarter-on-quarter and 11% above the prior year quarter.
Efficiency and Structural Transformation Progress
Efficiency ratio stable at ~33.9% year-on-year while the bank continued its transformation: closed 18 branches in the quarter (402 branches at quarter-end, targeting ~370 by year-end), headcount reduced to ~8.18k (down 1% q/q, 8% y/y), with ongoing investments to reallocate savings into digital and wealth initiatives.
Lower Loan Loss Provisions and Reduced Monetary Losses
Loan loss provisions decreased ~24% quarter-on-quarter (ARS ~60.7 billion lower q/q). Loss from the net monetary position was ARS ~102.1 billion smaller than in Q1, reflecting lower domestic inflation and contributing positively to profitability.
Execution on Strategic Digital and Product Initiatives
Notable milestones include near-complete rollout of a new retail banking app and digital onboarding, launch of a first-mover loyalty program, an industry-scale conversational banking WhatsApp channel, wealth management app live, auto insurance launched across the network, and steps toward a private banking proposition—supporting future fee income growth.
