Resurs Holding (Hold, TP: SEK45.00) - NII outlook still dim

We have cut our 2022–2023e earnings by 1–2%, as the Q3 net interest margin fell more than we had expected. We reiterate our HOLD and target price of SEK45 despite the non-demanding valuation at 9x 2022e EPS, or c7x after adjusting for intended shareholder distributions in Q4. In our view, Resurs’ digital transformation, including the migration of the core banking system to a modern, cloud-based platform, offers interesting long-term prospects, although many of the potential benefits are likely to be somewhat back-end-loaded.
