Indian Overseas Bank (IOB) reported its audited financial results for Q4 and FY ended March 31, 2025, with the statutory auditors issuing an unmodified opinion. Net profit for FY25 stood at Rs.3,334.7 crore, up 25.6% from Rs.2,655.6 crore in FY24, while Q4 net profit grew 30% YoY to Rs.1,051 crore. Total income rose 13.4% YoY to Rs.33,676 crore, with operating margin expanding to 25.8% from 22.8% in FY24. Asset quality improved sharply, with Gross NPA falling to 2.14% (from 3.10%) and Net NPA to 0.37% (from 0.57%); Provision Coverage Ratio improved to 97.3%. Capital Adequacy Ratio strengthened to 19.74% (CET1 at 17.13%). The Board approved plans to raise up to Rs.4,000 crore in equity capital (via FPO/Rights/QIP/etc.) and Rs.1,000 crore in Basel III Tier II bonds during FY26, subject to shareholder and regulatory approvals.
Strong earnings growth, improving asset quality, and healthy capital position are positives for shareholders. However, the dilution risk from a potential Rs.4,000 crore equity raise in FY26 may weigh on the stock in the near term, though it also signals confidence in business expansion. Govt holding has come down to 94.61% from 96.38% following the recent QIP.
