Statement of the President of the Management Board

On the occasion of releasing the annual financial results for 2024, Marko Badurina, President of the Management Board of Hrvatska poštanska banka, stated:

"The year behind us has marked the turning point of HPB's growth and development. By using an agile approach to opportunities we've managed to achieve record growth and profitability and have entered the top 5 largest banks in Croatia!

HPB's market position is strengthened, especially with regard to operating profit and revenue. Meanwhile, overall profitability is still above average in historical terms.

  • A significant annual increase in net interest income of EUR 32 mn (+22%) was achieved due to a higher volume of liquid assets and a higher average reference interest rate on deposits with central banks.
  • Net fee and commission income continues its growth trend, increasing by EUR 6.0 mn (+21%) in the observed period, driven by higher income in the retail segment and cost savings in the card business and FINA segments.
  • The increase in employee expenses due to the integration of Nova hrvatska banka in mid-2023 and the enhancement of material rights in 2024, along with inflationary pressures on labour and service costs, resulted in an EUR 18 mn increase in operating expenses.
  • The cost-to-income ratio remained below 50%.
  • The movement of Stage 1 & 2 provisions in 2024 was marked by the migration of part of the portfolio from Stage 1 to Stage 2 in accordance with the Bank's prudent risk management approach, reflecting the deterioration of macroeconomic indicators in key export markets. In the non-performing loan portfolio, effective collection, primarily in the corporate segment, exceeded the effects of new entries into the NPL portfolio after the operational merger.

  • Although there was no delay in the repayment, performing portfolio was marked by the migration of a portion of placements from Stage 1 to Stage 2 in accordance with a prudent risk management approach.
  • Efficient collection, write-offs of a part of non-performing exposures and the positive impact of performing loans resulted in the lowest NPL ratio in the Bank's history. Provisions for nonperforming loans (Stage 3) are, compared to the previous period, on expected level, considering all effects of the legal and operational merger and one-off effects of the change in methodology in 2024.
  • Other reservations refer primarily to legal cases.

  • The excess liquidity from collected deposits on the asset side was reflected in an increase in cash and cash equivalents and investment in securities and other financial instruments (mainly bonds and treasury bills of the Republic of Croatia) following a further decrease in market reference rates.
  • Loan portfolio without significant fluctuations, with significantly improved portfolio quality and a historically lowest NPL ratio of 3.0%, bringing the Bank closer to the average of credit institutions in Croatia.
  • Deposits recorded growth across all business segments (EUR +530 mn in Q4 2024), with term deposits showing an annual increase of 17.1%, primarily driven by the effect of attractive interest rates on Super Štednja, while a vista deposits recorded an annual growth of 11.7%.
  • Loan liabilities relate to MREL instruments and loans received from financial institutions (HBOR, CNB repo placements, and foreign financial institutions), while the decrease is due to regular repayments.

Total assets grew by almost a billion euros year-on-year (EUR +544 mn in Q4 2024).
