We have downgraded Lion Finance Group (BGEO) to HOLD, with a new price target (PT) of GBP 79.4. BGEO trades at 5.8x 2025E P/E and 1.5x P/TBV, which we see as fair, following a 114% USD return over the last 12M, and 566% over the past three years. After such a good earnings cycle, which leveraged on a superb macro backdrop, we see limited upside risk on our EPS forecasts and assumptions for the group’s long-term earnings power (ROTEs of 27% for Georgia and 22% for Armenia). We calculate that most...

European bank stress tests show that most banks remain resilient in a more stressed environment. We find that only three banks could need additional capital in the adverse scenario as compared to the leverage-based requirements. While all banks could likely continue to meet their minimum SREP CET1 capital requirements, we find that nine banks could hit their MDA restrictions unless some of the capital buffer requirements were to be released in stress. LBBW, Deutsche Bank and Société Générale are...
