Sabancı Holding
Q3 2023 Financial Results
Earnings Release
November 8, 2023
Sabancı Holding has delivered another strong set of results, driven by both bank and non- bank businesses. In Q3, combined revenue was up by 70% y/y, principally reflecting growth in banking business. Earnings quality in non-bank business continued to improve in the quarter with EBITDA and net income growing at 74% and 91%, respectively, resulting in TL15 billion combined EBITDA and TL5 billion consolidated net income. Operational cash flow(1) reached TL c.29 billion at the end of the quarter, surpassing the full year figure in 2022. Holding only net cash position also increased to TL5.9 billion, reducing the net debt/EBITDA further to 0.4 times. Consolidated ROE remained at 38% while non-bank ROE improved to 29%. All in all, the strength of Group's diversified portfolio, combined with pricing flexibility and focused cost management, underpinned the resilient performance in Q3 in the face of uncertainties in macro environment and high inflation. Moreover, liquidity and balance sheet strength continue to allow us for strategic capital deployment going forward.
The Group has taken important steps in transforming its portfolio towards new economy. Sabancı Holding acquired 100% of Oriana Solar LLC, which consists of a 232 MW solar power plant and a 60 MW energy storage facility investment in the US through Sabanci Renewables. Separately, during the quarter, Sabancı Holding continued with the process to merge with its subsidiary Exsa as per CMB regulations, to ensure portfolio crystallization and ultimately deliver a higher shareholder value. Additionally, Temsa Skoda Sabancı Ulaşım Araçları A.Ş. (Temsa), that will become a direct subsidiary of Sabancı Holding after the completion of this contemplated merger with Exsa, signed a new R&D collaboration agreement in Q3 to extend its expertise in electric vehicles to hydrogen-powered intercity vehicles.
Sabancı Holding CEO Cenk Alper said:
"Changes in the monetary policy started to impact Turkish economy positively. Nevertheless, inflationary pressures continue to affect business environment. Yet, our robust financial performance once again underlines the benefits of our well-diversified portfolio. Our balance sheet remains strong with net cash position of TL5.9 billion. This allows us to continue pursuing our strategy of investing in a sustainability-driven portfolio in new economy to attain higher net asset value growth and deliver enhanced shareholder value.
ESG is one of our primary focus areas both for our new investments and existing operations. Last year, we reduced our Scope 1-2 emissions by 11% and our total water consumption by %9. We increased our renewable electricity usage rate by 3.3 times. Considering all these developments, we expect to reduce our emissions by 15% by 2025 and 42% by 2030. We also aim to increase our sustainability-related operational spending and investments to 5 billion dollars by the end of 2027."

As a result of lower natural gas volume due to stoppages in natural gas plants from June to mid-September in 2023 and lower spot prices compared to last year, revenues dropped by 41% y/y in Q3. Despite low natural gas profitability, EBITDA was up by 41% in the same period with positive contribution from renewable and lignite assets thanks to higher wind regime and higher dark spreads. Moreover, asset light contribution on higher trading activities of Enerjisa Commodities continued to remain strong as one of the major drivers of EBITDA growth. Net income growth was at 72%, even higher than EBITDA performance, mainly due to positive impact of ongoing tax incentive.
