Natixis: Investment Banking Not Asset Management Drives Superior Profitability

No-moat Natixis reported net profit of EUR 764 million for the first quarter of 2019, however, this includes a gain of EUR 586 million on the disposal of Natixis' retail banking operations to its parent, BPCE. Underlying profit of EUR 192 million is 33% lower than the EUR 288 million Natixis achieved in the first quarter of 2018. We maintain our no-moat rating, and we cut our fair value estimate to EUR 4.60 per share from EUR 5.00 previously to reflect our lower growth estimates.
