Bank of Cyprus: value is (sometimes) relative (stays BUY)

We reiterate our BUY on Bank of Cyprus (BOCH). Our new price target (PT) is EUR 9.34. The bank is trading at 8.5x P/E and 1.2x P/TBV for 2025E, on our estimates (and 10.6x P/E and 1.6x P/TBV at target). With the Eurozone opportunity costs low (AT1 spreads at historic lows and the Cypriot 10-year at 2.9%), we still see value in BOCH, even after a 200% gain over the past two years, supported by its relative value versus its Eurozone peers with similar earnings power, but weaker capital.
