Banking - Digital Banks Ramping Up Deposit Competition?
Digital Banks Ramping Up Deposit Competition? As the five digital banks prepare to commence operations in the coming months, we anticipate a focus on deposit acquisition, potentially impacting sector NIM slightly. Sector valuations have risen to a historical mean P/B of 1.10x, which appears fair against forecasted ROE of 10% and earnings growth of only 6% vs our KLCI earnings growth assumption of 11%. We maintain our MARKET WEIGHT recommendation on the sector. CIMB remains our preferred choice.

ASEAN Banks – ASEAN Banks: Quarterly Update
OVERWEIGHT on Indonesia banks as they offer the highest earnings growth in 2024/25 and benefit from the recent rally in commodity prices. We like Singapore banks for their attractive dividend yields. Our top BUYs are DBS (Target: S$43.25), CIMB (Target: RM7.33), SCB X (Target: Bt130) and BMRI (Target: Rp7,900).

Banking - 4Q23: Muted Earnings Outcome
4Q23: Muted Earnings Outcome The sector delivered a muted earnings growth of 1% yoy in 4Q23 while contracting 8% qoq on NIM compression and higher provisions. As the sector is trading at its historical mean valuation and is expected to lag the FBMKLCI’s earnings growth, we perceive the current risk-to-reward ratio as well-balanced. In the absence of meaningful earnings catalysts, maintain MARKET WEIGHT on the sector. CIMB remains our top pick.

Management expects BJC’s 2024 top-line to improve by 7-9% yoy and gross margin to grow by up to 100bp. However, we are conservative and maintain our 2024 earnings growth forecast of 11% yoy, based on a 4.6% top-line growth and a 30bp increase in gross margin. We are still positive on a 2024 earnings recovery on the back of a sales improvement and lower cost pressure. Maintain BUY. Target price: Bt32.00.

BJC’s 4Q23 net profit came in at Bt1,638m, flat yoy but up 136% qoq. The yoy improvement was mainly due to higher gross margins from all businesses, but this was offset by higher SGA-to-sales and interest expenses. We expect 2024’s earnings to grow 11% yoy. Currently, BJC is trading at 19.8x 2024F PE, which is equivalent to -2SD to its PE mean. Maintain BUY. Target price: Bt32.00.
