STOCK FOCUS OF THE DAY
CIMB Group : Strong start to FY17 with higher operating
income and lower
provisions
BUY
We maintain BUY on CIMB Group Holdings (CIMB), with a higher
fair value of RM6.70/share (previously RM6.30/share). Our revised fair value is
based on a higher FY18F ROE of 10.4% (previously 9.9%) leading to P/BV of 1.2x.
We have raised our net profit estimate for FY17/18/19 by 3.4%/5.1/3.8%
respectively to account for higher non-interest income (NOII) as well as a
lower CI ratio assumption for FY18 and FY19. 1QFY17 core net earnings came in
strongly with a growth of 45.0% YoY to RM1.18bil. The improvement was driven by
higher NOII of 37.3% YoY from better capital market activities and higher net
interest income (NII) of 11.0% YoY on the back of improved NIM and loan growth.
Annualised ROE for 1QFY17 was robust at 10.3% against our expectation of 8.9%
for the full FY17.
We tweaked our net profit estimates for FY17/18/19 higher by
3.4%/5.1/3.8% respectively after revising our NOII estimates higher from an
improved outlook for capital market activities. Also adjusted was our CI ratio
assumption for FY18/19 to 49.5%/49.0% (previously 50.5%/50.0%). The lower CI
ratio assumption is to account for potential cost savings from the sale of
50.0% of its stockbroking business to China Galaxy Securities. Maintain our BUY
call on CIMB with a higher fair value of RM6.70/share (previously
RM6.30/share). Our fair value is based on FY18F ROE of 10.4% leading to a
higher P/BV of 1.2x (previously 1.1x).
