Period 1Q13/3MFY13
Actual vs. Expectations The 1QFY13 PAT of RM1,506.2m came in generally in line with the street’s expectations, making up 24% of the consensus forecast and that of ours (25%).
Dividends No dividend was announced.
Key Result Highlights The 1Q13 net interest income grew steadily by 1.0% QoQ and 9.0% YoY to RM2,411.3m. The NIM was higher by 2bps to 2.47% given the softer 12.1% (YoY) loan growth during the quarter. The loan growth momentum was softer due to the tighter markets in the region. The annualised 5.8% loan growth is hence below the bank’s FY13 KPI target and our estimate of 12.0%. The slower loan demand in Malaysia was due to the slower corporate activities especially leading into the 13 th GE period. Meanwhile, the 1Q13 total non-interest income of RM2,058m was higher by +1.9% QoQ. The group’s total income grew 6.2% YoY with non-interest incomes contributing to 35.4% of the total income.
The 1Q13 overhead cost of RM2.30b was +2.4% higher on staff cost. The cost-to-income ratio was up at 51.4% (vs. 50.9% in 4Q12) but was within our expectations.
The NPL outstanding balance of RM6.1b was higher in 1Q13 (from RM5.7b in 4Q12) with the net impairment ratio higher 9bps QoQ to 1.18%. The annual credit charged-off rate of 11bps to gross loans was better than our estimate of 29bps.
In summary, the annualised 14.2% ROE achieved is not too far off from the group’s 15.0% target and that of ours as well.
Outlook During the post-result briefing, management said that the bank’s outlook remained positive in 2H2013 and that it would focus on: 1) extracting value from its regional platform to create top line synergies, 2) improving staff productivity and 3) changing the group’s cost structure to improve efficiency.
