We reiterate our BUY rating on Hellenic Bank (HB) and upgrade our price target (PT) to EUR 2.20/share (from EUR 1.80/share previously). We expect the bank to report a very strong 2023E, with a ROTE of >16%, driven by higher ECB rates and the recent cost-efficiency measures. The bank has very strong capital ratios (with a total capital ratio of >24%), significant capacity to pay dividends and a clean balance sheet (NPE ratio of 3.6%). The low valuation (P/TBV of 0.54x and P/E of 3.5x on 2023E) an...

Hellenic Bank has announced net profit of EUR 21m for 3Q22, with the 9M22 profitability at EUR 76.4m, a ROTE of 9.3%. We expect the ROTE to improve substantially in 2023E, due to the rate hike benefit (positive impact of >EUR 150m on an annual basis in 2023E and 2024E) and the cost savings from the voluntary exit scheme (VES; c.EUR 30m in 2023E). Our current 2023E numbers are more conservative (EUR 146m in net profit and a ROTE of 12.6%) and the stock still only trades at 0.4x P/TBV and 3.5x P/E...

We have increased our price target (PT) for Hellenic Bank to EUR 1.80/share (from EUR 1.0/share) to account for the higher ECB rates. The bank has a loan to deposit ratio of c.40%, a EUR 7.2bn cash balance with the ECB (37% of total assets) and EUR 4.7bn of debt securities. We believe that the boost in the NII from the rate bonanza will not be eaten away by a higher cost of risk, and we expect the ROTE to spike to >12% in 2023E, from c.8% in 2022E. The stock is up 11% ytd, but remains extremely ...
