My first reaction: "I should've expected this..."

SCB has this habit of alternating between bliss and pain, one year to another. Also the habit of losing money when all banks make money and vice versa.

@maka heading says PBT down even before comprehensive income which accounts for the fair value changes.

The culprit in my view is decrease in Other Income (450m) and increase in OPEX (450m).

Concurs. They must have bagged a one off gain in Q1 2013 which was in the other income then. On OPEX, staff cost (+21.3% y/y, +11.3% q/q) and loan loss provision (+89.3% y/y, +305.0% q/q) did it. Its however also notable that NPL have spiked but NPL ratio remains low compared to industry.
