Net interest income grew 21.6% yoy to RUB 2,341 mln driven by
strong loan portfolio expansion of 48.3% yoy, while the interest
margin slightly tightened (4.5% in 1Q 2012 vs. 5.0% in 2011).
The Bank’s fee income soared by 46.3% compared to 1Q 2011
reaching RUB 756.5 mln of which 27.6% is attributable to cash collection
services, 24.0% to issuance of guarantees and letters of credit, and
23.6% to settlement services.
The Bank retains leading positions in cash collection. Apart from
servicing its own network and clients, CBM also provides cash collection
services to other financial institutions and their clients. In 1Q 2012,
the number of cash collection points rose by 79 and reached the total of
6,562. Four new collection itineraries were put in place bringing their
total number to 126.
Operating income increased by 32.4% compared to 1Q 2011 reaching
RUB 3,339.3 mln. One of the drivers behind this growth is the dramatic
improvement of the securities portfolio performance in the 1st
quarter of 2012 with a revaluation gain of RUB 451.3 mln which offsets
more than a half of the RUB 817.0 mln loss in 2011. Operating expenses
in 1Q 2012 amounted to RUB 1,451.1 mln which is 65.7% more than in 1Q
2011 due to growing administrative expenses on infrastructural
development as well as greater staff costs. The latter have grown due to
staff increase subsequent to network and business expansion. Thus,
operating performance in 1st quarter of 2012 deteriorated as
contrasted to 2011: CTI (cost-to-income ratio) rose to 43.5% against
39.8% as of end-2011.
The Bank’s net income reached RUB 1,215 mln in the 1st
quarter of 2012. The ROAE stood at 18.0% and the ROAA at 2.1%. As of
end-2011, ROAE and ROAA were 19.7% and 2.0%, respectively. The Bank’s
net income is inhibited by growing provisions and operating expenses.

loan portfolio after impairment provisions
expanded by 7.8% in 1Q 2012 and reached RUB 171.4 bln as of the
reporting date. The corporate loan portfolio grew to RUB 140.5 bln
representing 82.0% of the total loan book, and the retail loan portfolio

As of 1Q 2012 the Bank climbed to the 17th spot in RBC Rating’s Top
500 banks by loan portfolio (from the 20th place as of 1Q 2011).
Growing its loan portfolio and adhering to a conservative provisioning
policy at the same time, the Bank increased loan impairment provisions
which more than tripled compared to 1Q 2011, reaching RUB 447.7 mln. The
ratio of provisions to loan portfolio slightly lowered to 2.3% (from
2.4% as of the end of 1Q 2011). Loan portfolio quality remains at
a traditionally high level: the share of NPLs (loans overdue more than
90 days) in the loan portfolio rose from 1.1% as at the beginning of the
year to 1.2% as of 1Q 2012 with the provision coverage ratio falling
from 208.6% to 192.4%. The percentage of overdue loans in the portfolio
