Read MoreHide Full Article
Key Takeaways
IFS' Q2 earnings are expected to rise 62.1% year over year to $1.07 per share.
Loan demand, lower deposit costs and strong fee income likely drove revenue growth for IFS.
Higher digitization costs and employee expenses may keep IFS' expense base elevated this quarter.
Peru-based Intercorp Financial Services Inc. (IFS - Free Report) is slated to report second-quarter 2025 results on Aug. 11. The company’s quarterly earnings are expected to have increased on a year-over-year basis.
In the last reported quarter, IFS’ results benefited from higher revenues. However, a rise in provision for credit losses and higher expenses were spoilsports.
Intercorp Financial Services has an impressive earnings surprise history. Its earnings surpassed the Zacks Consensus Estimate in each of the trailing four quarters and missed once, with the average beat being 17.26%.
Intercorp Financial Services Inc. Price and EPS Surprise
The consensus estimate for Intercorp Financial Services’ earnings is pegged at $1.07 per share, which has remained unchanged in the past seven days. This indicates a jump of 62.1% from the year-ago quarter’s reported number.
Key Factors to Influence IFS’ Q2 Earnings
Revenues: IFS generates a major portion of its revenues from spread income. In May 2025, in a surprise move, Peru's Central Reserve Bank cut its benchmark interest rate by 25 basis points to 4.50%. With economic growth remaining decent, lower rates are expected to have supported loan demand in the to-be-reported quarter.
Additionally, Intercorp Financial Services is likely to have witnessed a steady decline in deposit costs. As such, the company’s net interest and similar income is expected to have risen in the second quarter. Likewise, the company’s net interest margin is likely to have expanded as deposits reprice at a lower rate.
Given the decent equity market performance in the second quarter, Intercorp Financial Services likely benefited from strong asset inflows, driving growth in its assets under management. This, in turn, is expected to have supported its wealth management operations. Along with higher commissions from banking services and credit card activity, this likely contributed to an increase in net fee income from financial services during the quarter.
Expenses: Higher salaries and employee benefits costs and administrative expenses are expected to have kept the expense base elevated in the second quarter. Also, as Intercorp Financial Services is heavily investing in digitizing operations, expenses related to this effort are likely to have increased.
What the Zacks Model Unveils for IFS
Our quantitative model cannot provide a conclusive prediction of an earnings beat for IFS this time. This is because it lacks the right combination of the two key ingredients — positive Earnings ESP and a Zacks Rank #3 (Hold) or better.

Itau Unibanco Holding S.A. (ITUB - Free Report) reported recurring managerial results of R$21.7 billion ($3.94 billion) for the first half of 2025, which increased 8% year over year.
Higher revenues and an increase in managerial financial margin supported the results. However, a rise in non-interest expenses acted as a spoilsport for ITUB.
HSBC Holdings (HSBC - Free Report) reported second-quarter 2025 pre-tax profit of $6.33 billion, which declined 29% from the prior-year quarter.
A fall in revenues, higher expected credit losses and other credit impairment charges and higher expenses hurt HSBC’s results.
