Public Bank (PBK MK) - 2Q25: Growth Holds Firm Amid Higher Costs

2Q25: Growth Holds Firm Amid Higher Costs Public Bank’s 2Q25 earnings came in marginally below expectations due to one-off legal costs. Nonetheless, PPOP rose a commendable 7% yoy in 1H25. We maintain our BUY rating and target price of RM5.25 (1.66x 2026F P/B, 12.6% ROE). With its valuation near pandemic lows (-1.5SD below mean) and the sector’s strongest provision buffers, the bank remains well-positioned to weather macro headwinds.

Banking - Prime Beneficiary Of A Soft Landing

Prime Beneficiary Of A Soft Landing Despite an uncertain macro backdrop from US tariffs, we upgrade the sector to OVERWEIGHT after its ytd underperformance. Resilient earnings, attractive dividends, and its position as a prime beneficiary of EM rotation from Fed easing are, in our view, key catalysts. The sector offers defensive shelter while retaining upside potential in the early phase of a cyclical recovery. We also take the opportunity to upgrade CIMB to a BUY and our sector recommendation t...

Banking - Loans Growth Tapers Amid Caution

Loans Growth Tapers Amid Caution Loan growth softened to 5.1% in Jun 25 (May 25: +5.3%), driven by weaker business lending. Loan applications, particularly from businesses, also declined, likely reflecting a cautious stance amid tariff uncertainties. We maintain our 2025 loan growth forecast at 5-6%, implying a 1.4x loan-to-GDP multiplier, consistent with the historical 1.0x-1.7x range. Maintain MARKET WEIGHT, with a preference for defensive names like Hong Leong Bank and Public Bank.

Banking - Loans Growth Improves

Loans Growth Improves Loans growth improved to 5.3% in May 25 (Apr 25: 5.1%), driven by stronger construction loans. We are keeping our 2025 loans growth estimates at 5-6% (recently revised downwards from 6-7% on slower GDP growth forecasts). This implies a 1.4x loans to GDP growth multiplier which is broadly in line with the historical range of 1.0x- 1.70x. Maintain a MARKET WEIGHT stance, favouring defensive plays like Hong Leong Bank and Public Bank.
