In this flash note, we make our first attempt to analyse how Sberbank’s investment case and valuation could change after the introduction of stricter sanctions on a number of targeted entities and individuals. We are not political analysts, but we believe that the chances are that we could move into a quiet period in terms of sanctions. This is not to say that we are ruling out new sanctions down the line, or arguing that Sber’s valuation can escape unscathed, as it is a Russia proxy. We bel...
This morning, Sberbank reported RUB 196bn in 1Q18 RAS net income, up 26% yoy. Although there is no direct read-across between the RAS and IFRS results, looking at it directionally, we believe the results have broadly neutral implications for the stock. We note that the 1Q18 RAS NIM indicates that management’s guidance is accurate so far. Although it should recover seasonally in the rest of the year, we believe there is a strong likelihood of significant margin erosion in 2018E, primarily on th...

On the negative side, the Turkish ISE30 performed poorly, losing 9.1%, followed by the Warsaw WIG20, -7.3%. The Greek ASE index fell by 6.6% and Mosc...

In this report, we have downgraded Sberbank to HOLD, from Buy, with a new price target (PT) of RUB 280/common share (vs. RUB 232/share previously), yielding 4% upside from the current levels. The bank is trading at 7.4x P/E and 1.6x P/TBV on our 2018E estimates. We believe that Sber is probably still the highest-quality proxy for Russia, and its 2019E dividend yield could increase to as much as 7%, in our view. That said, we believe the positives have been priced in and the upside has diminished...
