Lloyds Earnings: Structural Hedge Lifts Net Interest Margin as Retail Loan Demand Strengthens
Narrow-moat Lloyds reported third-quarter underlying profits of GBP 1,853 million, up 6% on a sequential basis and 11% ahead of company-compiled consensus estimates. Better income performance across interest and noninterest-related businesses and lower impairment charges versus consensus expectations drove the good quarterly results. We maintain our GBX 78 per-share fair value estimate.
