Maybank-KE upgrades sector to OverWeight: DBS remains the popular pick Maybank-KE upgrades the Singapore banking sector to Overweight, with DBS as the house top pick. With short-term interest rates expected to bounce up as early by 2015, this could spark a new re-rating wave as early as 2H14, after several years of depression in net interest margins. The house projects 3M SIBOR to rise to 1.0% by end-2015 and to 2.0% by end-2016 (currently 0.4%) and conclude that overall industry asset quality should remain resilient due to: 1) the majority of the loan growth came from traditionally safer housing loans and short-term US$ trade loans 2) strong household balance sheet 3) decent corporate balance sheet and 4) a growing economy DBS (Buy: TP $19.70) ranks highly given its position to benefit the most from higher interest rates given its strong deposit franchise and liquid balance sheet, while the on-going transformation at DBS should support a higher medium-term ROE profile. Also upgrade UOB (Buy: TP $23.40) on its resilient Asean market exposure which allows it to capture Asian consumer affluence, cheap P/E valuation, and management?s discipline in M& A?s suggests low risk of overpaying for Wing Hang . OCBC (Hold: TP $11.30) is the house least preferred bank, for its volatile earnings profile, and risk of overpaying for Wing Hang. Separately, we note that two foreign brokers had similarly reiterated their Buy calls on DBS this morning, citing the bank as its top pick Singapore banking pick, on grounds of the group?s ability to leverage off its stronger foothold in the private banking industry, its strong NIM outperformance and limited risky Asean exposure.

 

OCBC posted a 59 per cent drop in third quarter net profit in the absence of huge one-off gains, but a strong performance from its consumer and insurance businesses helped it beat expectations.

OCBC, whose businesses include private bank Bank of Singapore and insurer Great Eastern Holdings Ltd, earned S$759 million (US$612 million) in the three months ended Sept 30, down from S$1.85 billion a year earlier.

Its profit beat the S$642 million average forecast of six analysts polled by Reuters. The fall was magnified by a S$1.13 billion one-off gain a year earlier from the sale of a stake in Fraser and Neave and Asia Pacific Breweries Ltd.

Excluding one-off items, net profit rose 5 per cent, boosted by a rise in net interest income and a strong quarter for Great Eastern. However, its treasury business had a tougher quarter due to market volatility.

 

CLSA reckons 3Q13 results are likely underwhelming. NIMs are expected to be stable but slower loan growth, subdued non-interest income and bad debts are expected to weigh on the bottom line. OCBC?s headline numbers will look particularly weak on a y/y basis given the material gain in 3Q12. CS? order of preference is: UOB, OCBC, DBS.

UOB (5th Nov) ? forecast 3Q13 NPAT of $634m (-3% y/y, - 13% q/q) on the back of exceptional gains in both 3Q12 and 2Q13. There will be gains in 3Q13. However, these are expected to be lower than previous periods. Recommendation: Buy, TP: $24.20

OCBC (1st Nov) ? forecast 3Q13 NPAT of $655m (-65% y/y, +4% q/q) as 2Q13 was particularly weak, while there was a $1.1bn gain in 3Q12. On an underlying basis, 3Q is expected to be down 10% y/y on subdued non-interest income and higher bad debts. Recommendation: Outperform, TP: $11.30

DBS (1st Nov) ? forecast 3Q13 NPAT of $847m (-1% y/y, -4% q/q) on slower loan growth momentum, smaller fees & commissions and lower trading income. 2Q13 was an exceptionally strong quarter for non-interest income. Recommendation: Underperform, TP: $18.5

 

Watch out for trend reversal for OCBC.

TMD....entered too early and exited too early....still a novice in this...only make peanuts out of it

 

What is a good price to enter for OCBC?

 

damn....went in too early @ 10.25

 

UOB Kay Hian maintains Buy with $11.86 TP. House note that the rout for government bonds in 2Q13 is unlikely to be repeated and expect contribution from life insurance to normalise to S$150m in 3Q13. Great Eastern?s underlying life insurance franchise continues to expand with TWNS expanding 33.8% in 1H13.
