Insights

Financial Analyst

TL;DR – Q2 beat and double-digit FY growth guidance signal robust demand.

Headline figures imply a healthy ~30% net-income margin (€2.3 bn on €7.7 bn sales). Management expects ~15% sales growth and 52% gross margin for FY 2025, indicating continued pricing power and favorable product mix. Although full details are in the attached exhibits, the disclosed numbers alone point to strong execution amid semiconductor-equipment cyclicality. Investors will focus on order backlog and EUV demand drivers once the complete statements are reviewed.

Research Update:

ICICI Bank Stand-Alone Credit Profile Revised Upward To 'a-' From 'bbb+'; 'BBB-/A-3' Ratings Affirmed; Outlook Positive

July 15, 2025

Overview

· We expect ICICI Bank to gain market share and sustain improvement in its funding base over the next two years, supported by its strong business franchise and digital capabilities.

· We have revised upward to 'a-' from 'bbb+' our assessment of the stand-alone credit profile (SACP) of ICICI. The rating remains capped by the sovereign ratings on India.

· We affirmed our 'BBB-' long-term and 'A-3' short-term issuer credit ratings on the India- based private sector bank.

· The positive rating outlook on the long-term rating on ICICI over the next 12-24 months reflects that on the sovereign credit rating on India.

Rating Action

On July 15, 2025, S&P Global Ratings affirmed its 'BBB-' long-term and 'A-3' short-term issuer credit ratings on ICICI Bank Ltd. The outlook on the long-term rating remains positive. At the same time, we affirmed our 'BBB-' long-term issue rating on the bank's senior unsecured notes.

Rationale

We affirmed our ratings on ICICI to reflect our view that the bank will continue to gain market share in the Indian banking sector. We believe the bank's expanding branch network and digital prowess will help it to sustain structural improvements in its funding profile, with a more granular and sticky funding base.

In our view, ICICI's access to stable funding sources is strong and materially better than peers'. We expect the bank's strengthened funding profile to instill greater resilience and stability to its liquidity, which has improved over time. We have therefore revised our assessment of the bank's

funding and liquidity to strong from adequate. This leads to a higher SACP assessment of 'a-' from 'bbb+'.

We believe the bank will continue to be primarily funded by core deposits, which made up 86.6% of its total funding base as of March 31, 2025. The average ratio over the five years was 86.1%, marked higher than the average of 65.5% over the prior ten years.

Moreover, ICICI's top-20 depositors account for less than 5% of its total deposits, lower than most domestic peers. A high proportion of stable current and savings account deposits (at 41.8% as on March 31, 2025) in the bank's deposit base also imparts stability to its funding profile.

In our view, ICICI will be able to withstand a stressed outflow of liquidity largely by utilizing its on-balance-sheet liquidity sources. The bank will likely also benefit from a flight to quality for deposits in a stressed scenario.

ICICI's ratio of broad liquid assets to total assets has increased to approximately 29% over the past few years, from 24% as of March 31, 2019. The bank has maintained a ratio of broad liquid assets to short-term wholesale funding of more than 6x for the past four years. We believe this level is sufficient for the bank's business and better than that of regional peers.

We believe ICICI's strong business franchise and digital capabilities will help it to gain market share over the next two years, entrenching its competitive position. The bank is the second- largest private sector bank in India.

ICICI's asset quality will likely deteriorate marginally over the next 12-18 months, given stress in certain pockets of the retail segment. Nevertheless, we expect the bank's asset quality to  remain better than the Indian sector average. We forecast ICICI's weak loans--defined as nonperforming loans (NPLs) and restructured loans--will increase to 1.9%-2.0% of total loans over the next 12 months, from about 1.8% as of March 31, 2025. Supportive operating conditions and a decline in interest rates will partially offset the deterioration.

In our view, ICICI will maintain good capitalization over the next two years, on the back of healthy earnings. We expect its S&P Global Ratings risk-adjusted capital ratio to remain at 10.5%-11.0% over the period, compared with 10.7% as of March 31, 2025.

The rating on ICICI remains capped by the sovereign rating on India (BBB-/Positive/A-3). We do not rate the bank above the foreign-currency sovereign credit rating on India because the bank operates mostly in India, and we do not expect it to be able to withstand stress associated with a sovereign default.

Outlook

The positive rating outlook on ICICI reflects that on the sovereign credit rating on India. The rating on ICICI is capped by the sovereign rating, and will move in tandem with that on the sovereign.

We expect ICICI to maintain its strong position in the Indian banking sector. The bank's asset quality is also likely to remain better than the Indian sector average, and comparable to that of similarly rated international peers.

In our view, ICICI will maintain good capitalization over the next two years, on the back of healthy earnings. The bank will also likely maintain its solid funding and liquidity profile over the next two years.

Downside scenario

We could revise the outlook to stable if we take a similar action on the sovereign rating on India.

Upside scenario

We could upgrade ICICI if we raise our sovereign rating on India.
