Brazilian digital lender Nubank posts 42% net profit boost in second quarter
By Andre Romani SAO PAULO (Reuters) -Nu Holdings, which runs Brazilian digital lender Nubank, posted on Thursday a $637 million second-quarter net profit, a 42% increase from a year earlier on a foreign exchange-neutral basis. The firm, which has nearly 123 million clients across Brazil - its main market - Colombia and Mexico, reported a net revenue for the April to June period at $3.7 billion, up 40% year-on-year. Chief Financial Officer Guilherme Lago told Reuters the profit increase was driven by operational leverage and revenue growth, but said the factors behind that growth are starting to change. "If in the last three to five years a major part of our growth came from adding new customers, in the next three to five years a major part of our growth revenue in Brazil will come from deepening the relationship with these customers," Lago said. Nubank's annualized return on equity, a gauge of profitability, came in at 28%, in line with the reported year-ago figure. The lender's total loan book rose 8% from the first quarter to $27.3 billion, as personal loans kept growing in Nubank's overall portfolio, which is largely made up of outstanding credit card debt. Meanwhile, the early default ratio stood at 4.4%, falling 0.3 percentage points from the first quarter. The over-90 day ratio reached 6.6%, up 0.1 percentage point in the same period, with Nubank saying it reflected both a rise in short-term delinquencies in the first quarter and a seasonal pattern.

Applied Materials beats Q3 but warns of weaker sales, shares fall
-- Applied Materials Inc. reported third-quarter results above Wall Street expectations on Wednesday but forecast a steeper-than-expected revenue drop for the current quarter, sending its shares down 11%. The chipmaking equipment supplier posted earnings of $2.48 per share for the quarter ended July, compared with analysts' estimates of $2.36. Revenue rose to $7.3 billion from $7.22 billion expected. For the fourth quarter, Applied Materials expects earnings of $1.91 to $2.31 per share and revenue of $6.2 billion to $7.2 billion, both below consensus estimates.'We are currently operating in a dynamic macroeconomic and policy environment, which is creating increased uncertainty and lower visibility in the near term,' said CEO Gary Dickerson. CFO Brice Hill said the weaker outlook reflects 'digestion of capacity in China and non-linear demand from leading-edge customers given market concentration and fab timing.'
