Banco Bilbao Vizcaya Argentaria Reports Strong Q3 Earnings, Driving Share Price Surge

by sun

In a recent regulatory filing, Banco Bilbao Vizcaya Argentaria SA (BBVA) demonstrated its robust financial performance for the third quarter, outstripping analysts’ expectations and sending its shares soaring. The Spanish multinational banking group reported a notable 13% increase in net income for Q3, reaching €2.08 billion ($2.2 billion), exceeding the projected €2.02 billion. This surge in earnings was primarily attributed to a 23% rise in net interest income, driven by elevated interest rates and accelerated borrowing costs in Europe and Mexico.

Despite the overall success, BBVA faced an unexpected quarterly loss in Turkey, which the bank attributed to hyperinflation adjustments and tax increases. Nonetheless, BBVA’s profits in Spain exceeded estimates, while those in Mexico aligned with expectations.

CEO Onur Genc’s strategic approach has been pivotal to the bank’s success, marked by geographical diversification, digital expansion, and the recent launch of a €1 billion buyback program. These initiatives have significantly contributed to BBVA’s impressive financial results in the third quarter of 2023.
