Collector Bank (Hold, TP: SEK26.00) - An uNIMpeded boost
The Q3 report was solid, with credit losses the only slight disappointment. The net interest margin was boosted significantly by the effect of higher interest rates; hence we expect upward revisions to consensus 2023–2024e NIM. While little new detail was provided on the make-up of the real estate lending portfolio, its risk is becoming all the more relevant to investors. Having adjusted mainly our net interest income forecasts, our 2023–2024 EPS estimates have seen minor changes. We reiterate our HOLD but have raised our target price to SEK26 (25).Collector AB is a Sweden-based company engaged in the financial industry.
