Phillip Securities (Thailand) Public Company Limited estimates that Muangthai Capital Public Company Limited, or MTC, will post net profit of about 2 billion baht in the third quarter of 2026, up 18.4% from the same period a year earlier and 7.2% from the previous quarter, marking a record high for a 13th consecutive quarter, driven by interest income growing in line with loan expansion while interest expenses trend lower, even as the company may face higher expenses and provisioning. The research team expects loans in the third quarter of 2026 to expand 3.1% from the previous quarter, accelerating from 2.6% in the second quarter of 2026, bringing loan growth from the end of 2025 to about 5.8% year-to-date. However, that acceleration may come with pressure on asset quality, with non-performing loans expected to continue rising. Phillip Securities maintains its net profit forecast for MTC in 2026 at 7.6 billion baht, up 13.4% from a year earlier, and keeps its 2027 target price at 42 baht per share with a buy recommendation.
