ICBC (01398.HK) recorded a 9.2% YoY increase in 1Q26 pre-provision profit on a rebound in NIM, strong trading gains, resilient fee income performance, and an improvement in the cost-to-income ratio (CIR), according to a Citi research report.

Dragged by higher credit costs, growth in net profit after tax slowed to 3.3% YoY during the period, reaching RMB86.9 billion, accounting for 23% of the market's forecast for FY26.
