Sector lens: what this season is about
Banks. The recapitalisation is done (about ₦4.65tn raised). The question now is whether the bigger capital base turns into loan growth, steady margins and stronger return on equity. Watch net interest margins and ROE, not just headline profit. Compare the big banks side by side →
Everyone else. Oil and gas rode refining optimism in Q3; consumer goods stayed soft. For non-banks, revenue growth matters more than one-off profit jumps.
The H1 backlog: context
Several big banks needed extra time for audited half-year accounts while awaiting CBN clearance: GTCO, Access Holdings, UBA and Fidelity Bank pushed to 30 September; Zenith Bank to 9 October; Stanbic IBTC flagged a possible delay. Late filings are common in earnings season. The deadline that matters is the one in the filing notice.
How to read a result
- Revenue / gross earnings: is the top line growing?
- Profit before tax vs the same quarter last year: NGX companies rarely give guidance, so last year is the benchmark.
- Dividend declared alongside: interim dividends often land with Q3 results; the payout ratio tells you how shareholder-friendly the board is.
- Price reaction: a great result can still sell off if the market expected more. Watch the next session’s tape.
Behind most misread results sit six traps: units, period columns, group vs company, EPS in kobo, unaudited revisions, and periods that changed length. They are walked through with worked examples in How to read a result without being fooled.
