UOB: CS note that Underperformance overdone and valuations are starting to look attractive.
UOB now trades at 1.1x P/B, at decade lows excluding 2009. It appears overextended (-1.8 sd) vs 5yr avg of 1.6x and P/B vs peers is near 5yr lows. House think it is too early to assume UOB’s asset quality performance could be worse this cycle than peers’ and while book value risks are real, mgt has been actively managing the exposure and has
already taken provisions on the exposure. UOB’s underperformance appears overextended and could reverse in the short term.
UOB is ‘aggressively’ reducing its exposure to European securities, now significantly below $1b (vs S$1.2b as of Sept). With pressure on funding costs and efforts to shore up USD liquidity further, NIMs will probably remain under pressure near term. Asset quality remains comfortable—the NPL increase in 3Q11 does not indicate an incremental deterioration of the book. House however maintain U/p, TP $17.70.

" UOB is ‘aggressively’ reducing its exposure to European securities, now significantly below $1b (vs S$1.2b as of Sept).)" Is it Meaning UOB still  " hooked"   below $1b exposure to European securities ????

UOB: 4Q11 results slightly below to in line, but earnings quality is a positive. Net profit came in at $558m, +7% qoq, despite a higher than expected loan loss charge resulting from a $68m charge on its 'Rest of World' loan book, and a $53m charge mainly related to contingent liabilities. UOB further took care of potential problem exposures in Europe by paring its EU debt portfolio to $1.6b (of which bank debt $0.6b) and providing for legacy problem loans. At the same time, and in contrast to other Spore banks, the NPA ratio fell 14bps to 1.79%, a result of lower Singapore NPLs. Underlying operations showed positives. Strong NIM rebound stood out, with 4Q11 NIM +6bps qoq and +4bps yoy to 1.95%, beating peers’ stable qoq NIM, and reflecting greater focus on loan margins rather than market share . This was partially a result of higher yields on some of its longer-duration USD loans, and a 7% QoQ fall in the USD book as lower yield loans ran off. Loan growth (+2.5% qoq +25.0% yoy) was largely driven by its regional operations, particularly Malaysia (+8.3% +35.6%) and Indonesia (+5.4% +45.0%). The bank declared $0.40 final div, but no scrip was offered. UOB guides for low-teens loan growth, highlighting that weak US$/trade finance loans were due to repayments, and demand has since picked up. Goldman says results were mixed, and expects UOB shares to trade sideways. Keeps at In-line, Citi keeps at Sell, but raises TP to $17.70 from $15.30. Goldman Deutsche keeps Hold rating and TP $19. JPM keeps at Neutral, raises TP to $18.10 from $17.40. Nomura remains Neutral, keeps TP at $18.40. HSBC keeps Overweight and TP $22.90. BNP keeps Buy and TP $19.60. |
