ESAFSFB Stock Summary · February 2026
The bank has successfully returned to profitability in Q3 FY26, driven by a strategic shift towards secured lending, which now constitutes 63% of gross advances. This focus has not only improved asset quality, reflected in a significant reduction in non-performing assets, but also enhanced the overall resilience of the portfolio. With retail deposits making up 93% of total deposits, the bank enjoys a stable funding base, supporting robust disbursements, particularly in secured loans. As credit costs are projected to normalize and return on assets stabilizes, the bank's disciplined approach to operational efficiency and risk management positions it well for sustainable growth, despite ongoing challenges in the microfinance sector.
