Intesa Sanpaolo SpA (ISP.MI) said Wednesday that second-quarter net profit rose, supported by lower provisions for bad loans and lower costs.

Quarterly net profit was 1.22 billion euros ($1.36 billion) compared with EUR927 million a year earlier.

Operating income, the bank's top-line figure, was EUR4.68 billion compared with EUR4.61 billion a year earlier.

Analysts had seen the bank's net profit at EUR899.5 million on revenue of EUR4.29 billion, according to a consensus forecast provided by FactSet.

Net interest income--the difference between what lenders earn from loans and pay for deposits, and a key profit driver for retail banks--was EUR1.76 billion, compared with EUR1.84 billion.

The bank's operating costs declined to EUR2.27 billion from EUR2.31 billion. Provisions for bad loans declined, to EUR554 million from EUR694 million.
