Sparebanken Vest (Buy, TP: NOK119.00) - To assess extraordinary DPS potential

Supported by solid core revenues, firm cost efficiency and robust asset quality, SVEG reported another strong ROE of 15.1% in Q2, despite modest trading income. With ample headroom to capital requirements, the bank announced that the board would assess the potential for an extraordinary dividend distribution this autumn. We have raised our target price to NOK119 (115) on positive estimate revisions and reiterate our BUY.
