FDC says FirstBank Reaping the Benefits of Solid Legacy

Financial Derivative Company Limited (FDC), a firm that offers quantitative and qualitative research to provide insight for investment decisions in Sub-Saharan Africa, has highlighted First Bank of Nigeria Limited as enjoying the benefits of solid legacy built over the years.

FDC was reacting to the FirstBank’s recent financial report in which it delivered outstanding results.

FirstBank delighted investors with a pleasant surprise when it announced stellar results confirming that its turnaround strategy pinned on the pillars of innovation, resilience and digging deep is working.

The Bank’s profit after tax spiked 108% to N32.4billion on the back of massive loan recoveries and a sharply lower level of non-performing loans (6.1%).

Its capital adequacy ratio (CAR) increased to 17.4%, giving it the much-needed buffers required to withstand financial shocks and turbulent headwinds in the coming quarters.

“FirstBank, one of a handful of banks that adopted the holding company structure, has been proven right as almost all the other tier one competitors have emulated the model.

“As far as competition is concerned, FirstBank is fighting hard to recover lost grounds to the nimble fintechs, the highly capitalised and efficient telcos and their payment savings bank subsidiaries.

“Indeed, FirstBank is well equipped to fight amongst the sharks in this blood-soaked ocean.

 “We expect to see FBN stock rise in the months ahead due to its massive undervaluation and its evident potential upside. We recommend the stock as a BUY,” says Financial Derivative Company.
