Banca Transilvania: still some gas in the tank (stays BUY)
We maintain our BUY rating on Banca Transilvania (TLV), with an increased price target (PT) of RON 31.89/share, implying 16.4% upside. We have rolled forward our model, updated our underlying business assumptions, and integrated the recent OTP Romania acquisition into our forecasts, and we believe that the market might not be fully pricing in TLV’s potential yet. The stock might not appear particularly cheap at this juncture, trading at 1.5x P/BV, on our 2024E figures, but it also does not scream expensive at all, in our view, considering the bank’s superior ROE generation and attractive dividend yield. On our 2025E forecasts and PT, the stock would trade at 1.6x P/BV and 8.2x P/E, which does not seem excessive to us, as we expect the bank to deliver a 20%+ ROE and a 5.6% dividend yield, at the current prices, in 2025E.
