Standard Chartered PLC - Results for the third quarter ended 30 September 2025

All figures are presented on an underlying basis and comparisons are made to 2024 on a constant currency basis, unless otherwise stated. A reconciliation of restructuring and other items excluded from underlying results is set out on pages 23-24.

Bill Winters, Group Chief Executive, said:

"We now expect to deliver an underlying return on tangible equity of around 13% in 2025, hitting our target a year earlier than planned. Progress is broad-based, but our sharper strategic focus on servicing our clients' cross-border and affluent banking needs is paying off, with strong double-digit growth in Wealth Solutions and Global Banking, alongside good momentum in our Global Markets flow business."

Selected information on Q3'25 financial performance with comparisons to Q3'24 unless otherwise stated

•  Operating income of $5.1bn up 5%; up 5% excluding notable items1

Guidance

We have upgraded our guidance for RoTE and 2025 income growth. All other guidance remains unchanged:

•  Expenses:

-  Operating expenses to be below $12.3bn2 in 2026 at ccy, including the UK bank levy and the ongoing impact of the deposit insurance reclassification

-  Positive income-to-cost jaws in each year at ccy, excluding notable items

•  Assets and RWA:

-  Low single-digit percentage growth in underlying loans and advances to customers and RWA

-  Basel 3.1 day-1 RWA impact expected to be close to neutral

-  Continue to expect the loan-loss rate to normalise towards the historical through-the-cycle 30 to 35bps range

•  Capital:

1  Variance is better/(worse) other than assets, liabilities and risk-weighted assets. Change is the basis points (bps) difference between the two periods rather than the percentage change for total capital ratio (%), common equity tier 1 ratio (%), net interest margin (%), advances-to-deposits ratio (%), liquidity coverage ratio (%), leverage ratio (%), cost-to-income ratio (%) and return on ordinary shareholders' tangible equity (%)

2  Profit/(loss) attributable to ordinary shareholders is after the deduction of dividends payable to the holders of non-cumulative redeemable preference shares and Additional Tier 1 securities classified as equity

3  When calculating this ratio, total loans and advances to customers excludes reverse repurchase agreements and other similar secured lending, excludes approved balances held with central banks, confirmed as repayable at the point of stress and includes loans and advances to customers held at fair value through profit and loss. Total customer accounts include customer accounts held at fair value through profit or loss

4  Represents the underlying or reported earnings divided by the basic weighted average number of shares. Results represent three months ended the reporting period

5  Calculated on period end net asset value, tangible net asset value and number of shares

6  Net interest margin is calculated as adjusted net interest income divided by average interest-earning assets, annualised

7  Reported performance/results within this interim financial report means amounts reported under UK-adopted International Accounting Standards and International Financial Reporting Standards

8  Change is cents difference between the two periods for earnings per share, net asset value per share and tangible net asset value per share. Number of ordinary shares at period end is percentage difference between the two periods

9  Net interest income has been re-presented in line with the RNS on Re-Presentation of Financial Information issued on 2 April 2025 to reflect the reclassification of funding cost mismatches to Non NII

Group Chief Financial Officer's review

Summary of financial performance

All commentary that follows is on an underlying basis and comparisons are made to the equivalent period in 2024 on a constant currency basis, unless otherwise stated. Q3 2024 included items totalling $12 million (Q3 2025: $10 million loss) relating to gains on revaluation of FX positions in Egypt and a hyperinflationary accounting adjustment in Ghana (the notable items).

Our engines of growth continued to deliver in the third quarter of 2025 amidst ongoing macro environment uncertainty. Operating income of $5.1 billion grew 5 per cent driven by record quarterly performances in Wealth Solutions and Global Banking. Operating expenses increased 4 per cent year-on-year driven by continued investment into business initiatives. Credit impairment charges of $195 million were equivalent to an annualised loan-loss rate of 24 basis points. This resulted in an underlying profit before tax of $2 billion, up 9 per cent and underlying earnings per share of 52.3 cents, up 31 per cent including the benefit from a reduction in share count.

The Group remains well capitalised and highly liquid with a diverse and stable deposit base. The liquidity coverage ratio of 151 per cent reflects disciplined asset and liability management. The Common Equity Tier 1 (CET1) ratio of 14.2 per cent remains above the target range.

Operating income of $5.1 billion increased by 5 per cent driven by double-digit growth in both Wealth Solutions and Global Banking.

Net interest income (NII) was down 1 per cent, as the benefit from higher volumes and improved mix was offset by the impact of lower interest rates and margin compression, albeit pass-through rates remain actively managed.

Non NII grew 12 per cent. This was driven by strong performance in both Wealth Solutions and Global Banking. Global Markets was up 1 per cent, as 12 per cent increase in flow income was broadly offset by softer episodic income.

Operating expenses increased 4 per cent. This was largely driven by targeted investments into business growth initiatives including Wealth and Retail Banking (WRB) relationship managers and Corporate and Investment Banking (CIB) capabilities, partly offset by efficiency saves. The cost-to-income ratio improved 1 percentage point to 57 per cent.

Credit impairment of $195 million increased $ 17 million over the prior year. The WRB charge of $107 million was $73 million lower reflecting a reduction in unsecured exposures from portfolio optimisation actions. CIB impairment was a net charge of $64 million including an additional $25 million precautionary overlay for Hong Kong CRE.

Other impairment decreased by $72 million to $20 million primarily due to the non-repeat of software asset write-offs.

Profit from associates and joint ventures decreased by $7 million primarily due to an increased share of losses within the Ventures segment.

Restructuring, FFG, Debit Valuation Adjustment (DVA) and other items totalled $219 million including a $138 million charge related to the Fit for Growth (FFG) programme and a negative $27 million movement in DVA.

Taxation for the third quarter was $468 million, with an underlying effective tax rate of 25.6 per cent, down 6.8 per cent on the prior year, primarily due to reduced tax losses in the UK for which no deferred tax assets are recognised.

Underlying RoTE of 13.4 per cent was up 260 basis points, reflecting an increase in underlying profits and a lower effective tax rate partly offset by higher average tangible equity. On a reported basis, RoTE increased by 50 basis points to 10.5 per cent with growth in underlying profits party offset by higher charges relating to restructuring and other items.

Underlying basic earnings per share (EPS) increased 12.5 cents or 31 per cent to 52.3 cents and reported basic EPS increased 7.7 cents or 21 per cent to 44.5 cents reflecting both the increase in profits and the reduction in share count following execution of successive share buyback programmes.

2  Comparisons presented on the basis of the current period's transactional currency rate, ensuring like-for-like currency rates between the two periods

The operating income by product commentary that follows is on an underlying basis and comparisons are made to the equivalent period in 2024 on a constant currency basis, unless otherwise stated. Q3 2024 included items totalling $12 million (Q3 2025: $10 million loss) relating to gains on revaluation of FX positions in Egypt and a hyperinflationary accounting adjustment in Ghana (the notable items).

Transaction Services income decreased 6 per cent as growth in Securities & Prime Services was more than offset by lower Payments & Liquidity income. Payments & Liquidity income decreased 9 per cent, driven by the impact of lower interest rates and margin compression, albeit passthrough rates continued to be tightly managed and there was growth in balances. Securities & Prime Services income grew 7 per cent due to higher custody balances and client volumes. Trade & Working Capital income remained flat as growth in fees was offset by lower volumes and margins.

Global Banking income grew 23 per cent, a record quarterly performance. Lending & Financial Solutions income grew 21 per cent as increased deal completion led to higher origination and distribution volumes and increased carry income. Capital Markets & Advisory fee income grew 33 per cent on the back of increased Mergers & Acquisitions transactions.

Global Markets income was up 1 per cent. Flow income grew by 12 per cent with strong client activity in EM rates products, as we continued to capture market opportunities across our footprint. Episodic income was softer due to lower levels of market volatility relative to the prior year.

Wealth Solutions income was up 27 per cent, with 35 per cent growth in Investment Products and 5 per cent growth in Bancassurance. This was driven by momentum in affluent new-to-bank onboarding, with 67,000 clients onboarded during the third quarter of 2025. Affluent net-new-money inflow in the third quarter was $13 billion with a higher proportion of wealth sales than in the previous quarter.

Deposits & Mortgages income decreased 1 per cent. The benefit from higher Time Deposit volumes was fully offset by the impact of lower interest rates, while Mortgages income doubled over the prior year primarily from lower funding cost and higher volumes in a few select markets.

CCPL & Other Unsecured Lending income was down 2 per cent as lower volumes resulting from portfolio optimisation actions was partly countered by higher margins.

Ventures income was down 14 per cent. Digital Banks income was up 20 per cent driven by higher Deposit volumes and fee income as they continue to grow their customer base. SCV income was lower due to negative mark-to market movements on underlying investments.

Q3 2024 included items totalling $12 million (Q3 2025: $10 million loss) relating to gains on revaluation of FX positions in Egypt and a hyperinflationary accounting adjustment in Ghana (the notable items).

Corporate & Investment Banking (CIB) profit before taxation decreased 3 per cent. Income grew 2 per cent with strong double-digit growth in Global Banking partly offset by a decrease in Transaction Services income. Expenses were 4 per cent higher and credit impairment charge was $64 million compared to a $10 million release in the prior year.

Wealth & Retail Banking (WRB) profit before taxation increased 23 per cent, with income up 7 per cent led by a record performance in Wealth Solutions. Expenses increased 5 per cent from increased investment spend and hiring of affluent relationship managers. Credit impairment charge of $107 million was down $73 million from a reduction in unsecured balances primarily from portfolio optimisation actions.

Ventures losses increased by $16 million to $114 million. Income was down $4 million as higher income from Digital Banks was offset by negative income from SC Ventures. Expenses were lower by 2 per cent and credit impairment was $2 million lower compared to prior year. Within SC Ventures other impairment charge relating to write-off of investments increased by $14 million.

Central & Other items (C&O) recorded a loss before tax of $150 million which was $41 million lower than the prior year benefitting from repricing of longer dated assets.

Financial review continued

Adjusted net interest income, was down 1 per cent compared to the prior year as the benefit from higher volumes and improved mix was fully offset by the impact of lower rates and margins. Compared to the prior quarter, the adjusted net interest income was up 1 per cent from higher day count in the third quarter and volume growth while the net interest margin was 4 basis points lower as the impact of falling rates and margin compression was partially offset by better WRB CASA mix.

Average interest-earning assets were up 2 per cent on the prior quarter driven by growth in Treasury balances, Mortgages and Wealth Lending within WRB. Gross yields decreased 9 basis points compared to the prior quarter due to the fall in interest rates and higher Treasury asset mix in response to strong customer deposit inflows.

Average interest-bearing liabilities increased 5 per cent on the prior quarter from strong in growth in customer accounts primarily in WRB Term and CASA deposits. The rate paid on liabilities decreased 10 basis points compared with the average in the prior quarter, reflecting the impact of interest rate movements and improved liability mix.

Financial review continued

Asset quality remained resilient in the third quarter. The Group continues to actively manage the credit portfolio whilst remaining alert to a volatile and challenging external environment with evolving policy changes which may lead to idiosyncratic stress in a select number of geographies and industry sectors.

Credit impairment was a $195 million charge in the quarter, representing an annualised loan-loss rate of 24 basis points. There was a $107 million charge in WRB, down $73 million following portfolio optimisation actions primarily in the unsecured portfolio. The Ventures charge of $13 million was broadly in line with the prior year while in CIB, there was a net $64 million charge in the quarter as new impairments were partly offset by releases in other parts of the portfolio. The Group retains a $60 million overlay for clients who have exposure to the Hong Kong commercial real estate (CRE) sector and a management overlay of $49 million related to China CRE. During the third quarter, CRE overlays increased $25 million for Hong Kong to capture the increased pressure on liquidity, interest serviceability and repayment capacity. The China overlay reduced by $9 million primarily driven by repayments.

Gross stage 3 loans and advances to customers of $5.6 billion were 9 per cent lower compared to 30 June 2025 as repayments, client upgrades, reduction in exposures and write-offs more than offset new inflows. Credit-impaired loans represent 1.9 per cent of gross loans and advances, 19 basis points reduction on the prior quarter.

The stage 3 cover ratio of 62 per cent dropped 4 per cent as compared to 30 June 2025 while the cover ratio post collateral at 78 per cent also dropped by 4 percentage points, both due to the decrease in gross stage 3 balances and provisions, partly from the restructuring of an exposure previously in stage 3.

The total of Credit grade 12 balances at $1.4 billion and early alert accounts of $5.8 billion together increased by $0.6 billion since 30 June 2025 from movements in sovereigns-related exposures and Hong Kong CRE exposures. The Group is continuing to carefully monitor its exposures in vulnerable sectors and select geographies, given the unusual stresses caused by the currently difficult macro-economic environment.

The proportion of investment grade corporate exposures has remained stable at 75 per cent since 30 June 2025.

The Group's reported performance is adjusted for profits or losses of a capital nature, amounts consequent to investment transactions driven by strategic intent, other infrequent and/or exceptional transactions that are significant or material in the context of the Group's normal business earnings for the period and items which management and investors would ordinarily identify separately when assessing underlying performance period-by period.

Restructuring charges of $54 million reflects the impact of actions to simplify technology platforms, business exits and optimising the office space and property footprint.

Charges related to the Fit for Growth programme totalled $138 million in the quarter.

Movements in Debit Valuation Adjustment (DVA) were negative $27million driven by the tightening of Group's asset swap spreads on derivative liability exposures.

Advances exclude reverse repurchase agreement and other similar secured lending of $6,162 million (30 June 2025: $4,189 million, 31 December 2024: $9,660 million and 30 September 2024: $8,955 million) and include loans and advances to customers held at fair value through profit or loss of $9,421 million (30 June 2025: $8,119 million, 31 December 2024: $7,084 million and 30 September 2024: $6,093 million). Deposits include customer accounts held at fair value through profit or loss of $24,545 million (30 June 2025: $24,958 million, 31 December 2024: $21,772 million and 30 September 2024: $22,344 million)

The Group's balance sheet remains strong, liquid and well diversified.

Loans and advances to customers decreased by $2 billion or 1 per cent from 30 June 2025. Underlying growth was $2 billion or 1 per cent excluding the $2 billion reduction from Treasury and securities-based held to collect loans and $2 billion impact of decrease from currency translation. The underlying growth is primarily driven by Wealth Lending and Mortgages in WRB. Loans and advances to banks increased 8 per cent since 30 June 2025 driven by higher interbank lending in a few select markets.

Customer accounts of $526 billion increased by $9 billion or 2 per cent from 30 June 2025. Excluding a $2 billion decrease from currency translation, customer accounts increased by $11 billion, or 2 per cent. This was primarily driven by a $ 7 billion increase in WRB CASA and term deposits from affluent focus and targeted campaigns, and a $3 billion increase in corporate term deposits and Treasury management activities.

Other assets decreased $2 billion from 30 June 2025, with a $7 billion increase in cash and balances with Central banks, and a $4 billion increase in investment securities was more than offset by a $6 billion reduction in financial assets held at fair value through profit or loss, primarily debt securities and a $7 billion reduction in derivative financial instruments.

Other liabilities decreased 2 per cent or $7 billion from 30 June 2025, with a $11 billion decrease in derivative balances and a $8 billion reduction in financial liabilities held at fair value through profit and loss was partly offset by an increase of $6 billion in other financial liabilities held at amortised cost and a $5 billion increase in debt securities in issue.

The advances-to-deposits ratio decreased to 50.7 per cent from 51.0 per cent as of 30 June 2025. The point-in-time liquidity coverage ratio increased 5 percentage point in the quarter to 151 per cent and remains well above the minimum regulatory requirement of 100 per cent.

Financial review continued

Total risk-weighted assets of $258.4 billion dropped by $1.3 billion or 1 per cent from 30 June 2025.

•  Credit risk RWA at $191.1 billion remained stable since 30 June 2025. There was a $1.9 billion increase from asset growth and mix within primarily in Treasury and a $0.5 billion increase from model and methodology changes. This was partly offset by $1.4 billion reduction in CIB optimisation actions and $1.3 billion decrease from currency translation.

•  Market risk RWA decreased by $1.0 billion to $34.7 billion primarily from updates to internal models mainly from risks not in VaR (Value at risk).

The Group's CET1 ratio of 14.2 per cent was 18 basis points lower compared to 30 June 2025 primarily reflecting underlying profit accretion, lower RWA and impact of share buyback. CET1 remains 3.9 percentage points above the Group's latest regulatory minimum CET1 requirement. The Group's Pillar 2A reduced in the third quarter post a supervisory review resulting in a 22 basis points reduction in the Group's CET1 requirement.

CET1 accretion from profits was 50 basis points while lower RWA added 3 basis points to the ratio. Changes in FX, fair value gains in other comprehensive income and certain regulatory capital adjustments increased CET1 by a further 9 basis points.

The Group is part way through the $1.3 billion share buyback programme which it announced on 31 July 2025, and by 30 September 2025 had spent $413 million purchasing 22million ordinary shares, reducing the share count by approximately 1 per cent. Even though the share buyback was still ongoing on 30 September 2025, the entire $1.3 billion is deducted from CET1 in the period, equivalent to a 50 basis points reduction in the CET1 ratio.

The Group is accruing the foreseeable dividend in respect of the final 2025 ordinary share dividend in the third quarter. This is not an indication of the Group's final 2025 ordinary share dividend, which will be proposed by the Board at the presentation of the 2025 full year results. The increase in the foreseeable dividend for ordinary dividend and AT1 coupons reduced the CET1 ratio by 30 basis points.

The Group's leverage ratio of 4.6 per cent is 9 basis points lower than as of 30 June 2025. The Group's leverage ratio remains significantly above its minimum requirement of 3.7 per cent.

Performance highlights

•  Underlying profit before tax of $1,319 million was down 3 per cent year-on-year at constant currency (ccy), mainly due to higher operating expenses and credit impairment partly offset by higher operating income.

•  Operating income of $2,970 million was $60 million higher, 2 per cent up at ccy, primarily driven by a record Global Banking performance, up 23 per cent at ccy, due to higher origination and distribution volumes in addition to capturing the rebound in Capital Markets and Advisory activity. Global Markets income increased 1 per cent as strong flow income was partially offset by lower episodic income due to non-repeat of prior year gains in Rates. Transaction Services income fell 6 per cent at ccy as the benefit of increased liability balances was more than offset by margin compression due to lower interest rates impacting Payments & Liquidity while Securities & Prime Services grew 7 per cent benefitting from increased deposit balances.

•  Underlying operating expenses rose 4 per cent at ccy, largely due to investments in strategic growth initiatives, higher performance-related pay and deposit insurance premium reclassification.

•  Credit impairment charges of $64 million were up $74 million, primarily due to a non-repeat of prior-year releases. Other impairment reduction of $45 million year-on-year due to a non-repeat of software asset write-off.

•  Risk-weighted assets (RWA) of $175 billion was up $11 billion year-on-year driven mainly by business growth in Banking and Markets.

Performance highlights

•  Underlying profit before tax of $930 million was up 23 per cent at constant currency (ccy) mainly driven by higher income and lower impairments, partially offset by higher operating expenses.

•  Operating income of $2,252 million was up 7 per cent at ccy, primarily driven by a strong 27 per cent growth in Wealth Solutions primarily in Investment Products which registered robust growth on the back of continued investment in product innovation, advisory capabilities and digital build. The growth is also supported by $13 billion of affluent net-new-money and 67,000 affluent new-to-bank clients onboarded during the quarter.

•  Operating expenses increased 5 per cent at ccy, reflecting continued investment in our affluent strategy, including the hiring of relationship managers, and investments into new products, capabilities and platforms, partly offset by efficiency savings from the Fit for Growth programme.

•  Credit impairment charges reduced by $73 million driven by the reduction in unsecured exposures from portfolio optimisation actions.

•  Risk-weighted assets (RWA) of $58 billion reduced $2 billion year-on-year primarily due to reductions in Unsecured Lending portfolios, partially offset by increase in Wealth Lending and Secured Lending portfolio reflecting growth in asset balances.

•  Other impairment charges increased $14 million, largely from SCV.

Performance highlights

•  Underlying loss before taxation decreased to $150 million compared to the prior year loss of $191 million, mainly from improved operating income and lower impairments, partly offset by lower profit from associates and joint ventures.

•  Income for the quarter was $31 million higher year-on-year, mainly driven by improved yields from longer dated Treasury assets.

•  Impairments were lower year-on-year as a non-repeat of prior year software impairment was partly offset by a non-repeat of prior year credit impairment releases.

•  The reduced profit from associates and joint ventures mainly stems from a reduction in profits recognised from China Bohai Bank.

The information included in this document may contain 'forward-looking statements' based upon current expectations or beliefs as well as statements formulated with assumptions about future events. Forward-looking statements include, without limitation, projections, estimates, commitments, plans, approaches, ambitions and targets (including, without limitation, ESG commitments, ambitions and targets). Forward-looking statements often use words such as 'may', 'could', 'will', 'expect', 'intend', 'estimate', 'anticipate', 'believe', 'plan', 'seek', 'aim', 'continue' or other words of similar meaning to any of the foregoing. Forward-looking statements may also (or additionally) be identified by the fact that they do not relate only to historical or current facts.

By their very nature, forward-looking statements are subject to known and unknown risks and uncertainties and other factors that could cause actual results, and the Group's plans and objectives, to differ materially from those expressed or implied in the forward-looking statements. Readers should not place reliance on, and are cautioned about relying on, any forward-looking statements.

There are several factors which could cause the Group's actual results and its plans and objectives to differ materially from those expressed or implied in forward-looking statements. The factors include (but are not limited to): changes in global, political, economic, business, competitive and market forces or conditions, or in future exchange and interest rates; changes in environmental, geopolitical, social or physical risks; legal, regulatory and policy developments, including regulatory measures addressing climate change and broader sustainability-related issues; the development of standards and interpretations, including evolving requirements and practices in ESG reporting; the ability of the Group, together with governments and other stakeholders to measure, manage, and mitigate the impacts of climate change and broader sustainability-related issues effectively; risks arising out of health crises and pandemics; risks of cyber-attacks, data, information or security breaches or technology failures involving the Group; changes in tax rates or policy; future business combinations or dispositions; and other factors specific to the Group, including those identified in Standard Chartered PLC's Annual Report and the financial statements of the Group. To the extent that any forward-looking statements contained in this document are based on past or current trends and/or activities of the Group, they should not be taken as a representation that such trends or activities will continue in the future.

No statement in this document is intended to be, nor should be interpreted as, a profit forecast or to imply that the earnings of the Group for the current year or future years will necessarily match or exceed the historical or published earnings of the Group. Each forward-looking statement speaks only as of the date that it is made. Except as required by any applicable laws or regulations, the Group expressly disclaims any obligation to revise or update any forward-looking statement contained within this document, regardless of whether those statements are affected as a result of new information, future events or otherwise.

Please refer to Standard Chartered PLC's Annual Report and the financial statements of the Group for a discussion of certain of the risks and factors that could adversely impact the Group's actual results, and cause its plans and objectives, to differ materially from those expressed or implied in any forward-looking statements.

This document may contain: (a) financial measures and ratios not specifically defined under: (i) International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) (Accounting Standards) as adopted by the European Union; or (ii) UK-adopted International Accounting Standards (IAS); and/or (b) alternative performance measures as defined in the European Securities and Market Authority guidelines. Such measures may exclude certain items which management believes are not representative of the underlying performance of the business and which distort period-on-period comparison. These measures are not a substitute for IAS or IFRS measures and are based on a number of assumptions that are subject to uncertainties and change. Please refer to Standard Chartered PLC's Annual Report and the financial statements of the Group for further information, including reconciliations between the underlying and reported measures.
