2. Leonteq's 2025 Earnings: A Mixed Bag

Leonteq's financial performance in 2025 was marked by a decline in net income by 17% to CHF 178.5 million, primarily due to a temporary halt in new business activities with its largest insurance partner, decreased margins from structured products, lower contributions from large tickets, and the strengthening of the Swiss franc. The company's net trading result decreased to minus CHF 3.1 million, mainly due to negative hedging contributions and a change in its investment portfolio. The actual EPS came out at -2.42647, missing estimates at -1.8.

📋 Highlights

Revenue and Margin Analysis

Despite lower net fee income and a reduced trading result, Leonteq reported an underlying pretax loss of CHF 21.5 million for 2025. The company's net fee income in Switzerland declined by 16% to CHF 39 million in H2, mainly driven by a decline in fee income from the pension savings business. However, the company saw improved client momentum in the second half of 2025, with client transactions increasing by 14% to over 140,000 and a record 33,000 products issued on its platform.

Business Highlights and Outlook

Christian Spieler noted that "we have introduced our ROE strategy to build sustainable performance by resizing parts of the business that are not profitable, optimizing established areas, and expanding initiatives with strong future potential." The company is expected to return to a positive pretax result for both the first half and the full year 2026. Analysts estimate next year's revenue growth at 7.5%.

Valuation Metrics

Leonteq's current valuation metrics indicate a Price-to-Tangible Book Value (P/TBV) is not directly available, but the Price-to-Book Ratio (P/B) stands at 0.28, suggesting the stock is undervalued relative to its book value. The Dividend Yield is 27.68%, which is relatively high and may attract income-seeking investors. With an expected return to profitability in 2026, the stock's valuation multiples will be worth monitoring.

Retail Flow Business and Growth Prospects

The company is advancing its retail flow business initiative, having received BaFin approval for a license extension in Germany and planning to go live in Q2 2026. Leonteq expects this business to deliver around CHF 8 million of revenues in the current year, with a significant increase from the prior year. The retail flow business is expected to contribute to the company's profitability and growth prospects.
