2 Non Interest Revenue expansion drives top line In line wit our expectation, furter FX revaluation gain (Q3: N32.6bn vs Q2: 60.8bn) drove top line for Guaranty over Q3 on te back of te bank s significant long dollar positioning. However, we note tat te results reflect some weakness in Guaranty s underlying core earnings, a teme tat we expect to dominate banks earnings scorecards for Despite a strong y/y performance (106.1%), non-interest revenue (NIR) fell 41.3% q/q driven largely by a 36.5% q/q decline in e-business income, a key driver of NIR for te bank. Notably, loan book grew by 5.1% q/q but tat growt somewat masks te 22.4% increase in te funding income line, suggesting tat elevated interest rate environment drove a re-pricing of risk assets over Q3. Hence, Interest income increased 33.7% q/q bucking te trend of negative q/q growt tat we saw over H1-16. Provisioning surprises reflect ongoing macro callenges We ave remained cautious about Guaranty s asset quality for some time now despite management s conservative guidance. Altoug te run-rate of loan loss expenses slowed significantly (down 42.8% q/q), a y/y spike in provisioning carge (570.3%) led to a significant increase in Cost of risk (unannualised) to 3.7% from 2.5% in H1-16 and 0.7% for Q3-15. However, NPL remained witin management guidance of below 5%, declining marginally to 4.1%- from 4.4% in H1-16. Te key downside risk to Guaranty s asset quality going forward remains te bank sizeable Oil and Gas (upstream) and manufacturing sectors wic collectively account for 41.0% of te bank s loan book. Tese sectors remain te weakest and te biggest drivers of current recessionary trends in te domestic economy. Trading Statistics Current Price (N) 24.5 Target Price (N) 30.4 Upside (Downside) 24.3% Dividend Yield 7.2% Total Return 31.5% Historic Return 3 mont 3.2% 6 mont 67.8% 12 mont 0.0% YTD 32.0% Outstanding Sares (bn) 29.4 Market Cap (NGNbn) Market Cap (USDmn) 2,273.7 Av. Daily Value Traded (NGN) 493,715,697.2 Av. Daily Value Traded (USD) 1,572, Source: Company data, estimates Efficiency gains trickle to earnings As alluded to earlier, te tigt policy environment appears to be NIMpositive for Guaranty. Wile Interest expense increased 18.4% q/q on account of a significant increase in deposit cost, reflective of tigt system liquidity over Q3, net interest income grew by 40.0% due to a strong increase in funding income and asset yield. On te cost side, OPEX spiked 32.7% q/q, but te growt in interest income was strong enoug to keep Cost to Income Ratio (CIR) at a multi-year low of 28.8%, versus management guidance of <45%, and 34.9% in HI-16. Te pressure from OPEX over Q3 owever led to q/q declines in pre and post-tax earnings. 2
3 We maintain our BUY rating wit a revised target price Despite signs of weak underlying earnings, given current callenges in te macro backdrop, Guaranty remains our favoured exposure in te tier-1 banking space. Tis is largely on account its above-peer operating efficiency and ig quality earnings. We ave revised our estimates for FY 2016 on te strengt of tese numbers, and raised our target price by 6.8% to N30.4, representing a 24.3% upside on current, ence our BUY rating on te stock 3
4 Investment Rating Criteria and Disclosure adopts a 3-tier recommendation system for assets under our coverage: Buy, Hold and Sell. Tese generic ratings are defined below; Buy: Based on our valuation and subjective view (if any), te total return upside on te stock s current price is greater tan our estimated cost of equity. Hold: Based on our valuation and subjective view (if any), te total return upside on te stock s current price is less tan te cost of equity, owever, te expected total return on te stock is greater tan or equal to te Standing Deposit Facility rate of te Central Bank of Nigeria (wic is currently MPR 200bps; i.e 10%). We consider tis as te minimum return tat may deserve our olding of a risk asset, like equity. Sell: Based on our valuation and subjective view (if any), te total return upside on te stock s current price is less tan te Standing Deposit Facility rate of te Central Bank of Nigeria (wic is currently MPR 200bps; i.e. 10%). We consider tis as te minimum return tat may deserve our olding of a risk asset, like equity, especially as we consider te average 4.5% total transaction cost for an average retail investor.
