CIMB Niaga reported another sequentially weaker quarter, with 4QFY21 net profit of Rp992m (-6,7% QoQ) weighed by lower net interest income (-4.5% QoQ), higher operating expenses (+1.4% QoQ) and a further uptick in loan loss provisions (+12.5% QoQ). Cumulative 12MFY21 net profit is a healthy Rp4.22tln (+109.4% YoY) however, with a notable lifts from non-interest income (+15.2% YoY) and lower loan loss provisions (-22.8% YoY). Operating margins were maintained as a result of strong CASA (current/savings account) growth despite tepid credit expansion. In the near to medium-term, management will continue to focus on improving asset quality and optimizing its Risk-Adjusted Return on Capital, with the consumer and SME segments key business drivers. We remain optimistic over CIMB’s longer-term prospects, reflected by ongoing improvements in its core operational numbers. We retain our Neutral call however, with the share price having exceeded our unchanged target price of RM5.50.
