Announcement no. 12/2019

Topdanmark has decided to allocate employee shares

By direction from the Executive Board, Topdanmark has today decided to offer employee shares to the employees for the period 1 November 2019 to 31 October 2020.

The allotment will be based on a cash salary reduction within the framework of section 7 (P) of the Danish Tax Assessment and will be effected on 26 October 2020.

Those participating in the scheme must be employees of Topdanmark or of subsidiaries directly or indirectly owned by Topdanmark. In order to be allotted employee shares,

the employees must be employed on 1 October 2019 at the latest, must be paid by the month and must be employed at least eight hours per week.

The employees must be employed on the date of share allotment, 26 October 2020.

Topdanmark will be allotting own shares as employees shares. Thus, new issue will not take place.

The number of employee shares included in the scheme will depend on the number of employees accepting the offer. Consequently, it is impossible to determine the number

of shares allotted pursuant to the scheme. The allotment of employee shares will have no impact on the post-tax profit.

Topdanmark (Hold, TP: DKK320.00) - Weathering the storm

Despite harsh winter weather, Topdanmark reported Q1 PTP up ~1% YOY due to a strong investment result and solid underwriting. The combined ratio was 84.8%, 1.2%-points higher YOY, supported by low large claims and high run-off gains. While the underlying claims ratio was up YOY, pricing measures should continue to support improved underwriting. On somewhat increased cost control, we have raised our 2025–2026e EPS by ~1%. We reiterate our HOLD and DKK320 target price.

Repricing the tonic for bad weather

We expect above-normal weather-related claims in Q1 as a result of heavy rain and snowfall (and record-low temperatures) in the Nordics at the start of the year. On the positive side, we believe the non-life insurers should see the effects of 2023’s repricing efforts, while their latest CMD presentations leave us confident the sector remains committed to maintaining underwriting discipline. Tryg is our top pick in the Nordic P&C sector, while we also reiterate our BUYs on Sampo and Gjensidige an...

Topdanmark (Hold, TP: DKK320.00) - Challenging end to 2023

Topdanmark reported Q4 pre-tax profit of DKK213m, hurt by high weather-related claims following storms and heavy rainfall, and an elevated level of large claims. Despite soft reported figures, the underlying claims ratio improved 0.2%-points YOY, which in our view reflects that the recent repricing efforts are starting to offset increased claims inflation and frequency trends. We have trimmed our EPS by 1–3% for 2024–2025e, reiterating our HOLD and have cut our target price to DKK320 (325).

Underwriting to remain disciplined

We expect heavy rainfall in Denmark and an early winter in the Nordics to lead to somewhat above-normalised claims in Q4, but strong equity markets and marked-to-market gains on bond investments to offset a rise in reported combined ratios. Despite higher interest rates in 2023, we remain confident that insurers will continue to focus on maintaining underwriting discipline. We still find the sector attractive long-term, and highlight Tryg as our top pick in the sector.
