OTP’s reported net income came to HUF 250bn in Q4, which was fully in line both with our and consensus estimate. OTP may propose a DPS of HUF 964, which broadly matches our forecast of HUF 962, while the management intends to continue the SBB program. More importantly, 2025 guidance will surprise the market to the upside, and we expect a net profit of HUF 1,167bn. As a result, we raise our Dec-25 TP by 7% to HUF 30,175, implying a 22% upside including the dividends.

Bank of Cyprus (BOCH) has reported EUR 108m in net income in 4Q24, 9% below our EUR 117m estimate for the quarter. The revenues were in line with our estimate and the NII also held up stronger than expected (7% higher than our estimate). The delta was due to the higher-than-expected provisions (EUR 20m higher). This includes a EUR 13m provision, which management has set aside for legacy litigation exposures. We understand that this provision is one-off in nature. The bank will return 50% of its ...
TP is rolled over to Dec-25 and raised to 28,245 HUF/sh before 2024 earnings, scheduled for 7 March, implying a 18% TR upside potential incl. a DPS of HUF 960. This reflects that NII and NF&C growth may surprise to the upside in 2025. However, given the limited upside potential, we downgrade our recommendation to Accumulate from Buy. We assume that OTP will pay out 25% of 2024 profit this year, offering a DivY of 3.9% at Friday’s closing price. OTP is currently running its 3rd HUF 60bn SBB ...
