(PNBN) s stock price performance has been flat year-to-date, while the sector has rallied more than 10%. However, we believe the bank s fundamentals remain on track to deliver above average earnings growth. PNBN has gained a reputation for its cautiousness and prudent credit policies, which helped it to navigate across the credit cycle. Such practices are still followed today. 2Q16 earnings in line; ; modest loan growth but higher NIM. PNBN s 1H16 net profit of Rp1.1tr (+11%y-o-y) represented 53% of both ours and consensus full year net profit estimates. 2Q16 earnings were 9% lower q-o-q but 31% higher y-o-y. Loans grew modestly at 5% y-o-y and 6% q-o-q driven by construction loans which jumped 20% y-o-y. NIM was higher compared to a year ago, mainly due to lower cost of funds after the 100bps cut in the reference rate since the beginning of this year. NPL in 2Q16 crept up to 2.8% from 2.6% in 1Q16 due to downgrades in construction and manufacturing sector. We have tweaked our forecasts slightly to account for higher NPLs. M&A still on the cards. Talk on the street is that ANZ will sell out of PNBN. We understand that the glitch remains with the board representation which needs to be sorted out. The 39% stake owned by ANZ, if sold, could trigger a tender offer, but whether that materialises will depend on Panin Financial, i.e. the ultimate family owner. In the longer run, we would not discount the possibility of the family eventually selling out. Valuation: Upgrade to BUY; ; Rp1000 TP. We believe the stock has been left out during the recent rally in the banking sector. Currently the bank is trading at low 0.8x FY16 BV. PNBN offers solid fundamentals with potential M&A play. We upgrade our TP to Rp1,000 (equivalent to 1.0x FY16 BV) to factor in lower risk free rate assumption to 7.2% from 8.8%. Our TP does not include a premium for any potential M&A deal, which could value the bank as high as x BV. Key Risks to Our View: M&A carries timing and tender offer risks. PNBN s share price remains vulnerable to M&A rumours. Recall that BTPN s share price jumped c.20% within a month after announcing the M&A with Sumitomo Mitsui Banking Corporation (SMBC) but retreated in the subsequent month as there was no tender offer made to minorities. PNBN could be caught in a similar situation if there no tender offer made. At A Glance Issued Capital (m shrs) 24,088 Mkt.

2 WHAT S NEW 2Q16 results on track; undervalued proposition 2Q16 earnings in line. PNBN s 1H16 net profit of Rp1.1tr (+11%y-o-y) represented 53% of both ours and consensus full year net profit estimates. 2Q16 earnings was 9% lower q-o-q but 31% higher y-o-y. Higher NIM from lower funding cost. NIM in 1H16 increased 70bps to 4.8% compared to the corresponding period a year ago, mainly due to lower cost of funds after the 100bps cut in the reference rate since the beginning of this year. Meanwhile, non-interest income grew 31% y-o-y, thanks to gains from the sale of marketable securities. This could have been triggered by the recent rally in the bond market and PNBN s exposure to T Bills and Securities, which comprise 13% of it earning assets. These positives, however, were offset by higher provisions in 1H16 (+162% y-o-y). Operating expenses were kept in check with cost to income ratio improving to 50% in 1H16 (vs 56% in 1H15) Loans grew 5% y-o-y y y driven by construction loans. Loans grew modestly at 5% y-o-y and 6.3% q-o-q, driven by construction loans which jumped 20% y-o-y. NPL crept up to 2.8% in 2Q16. NPL in 2Q16 crept up to 2.8% from 2.6% in 1Q16 due to some downgrades in the construction and manufacturing sectors. Despite the higher NPL, coverage ratio increased to a comfortable level of 104% from 100% in 1Q16. Maintained solid liquidity and capital position. Both CASA and time deposits grew by 9% y-o-y, leaving the CASA ratio unchanged at 38%. LDR remained flattish at c.100%. PNBN s capital position continues to be strong with CAR at 20%. Outlook. Limited impact on NIM from regulatory pressures. PNBN has kept its NIM at the historical 4%-5% level, thus we believe that the regulator's pressure to lower lending rates to single digits should be limited, in our view. The lower cost of funds from lower policy rates should keep NIM at bay in 2H16. NPL may not have peaked ed yet. Despite its conservative stance, PNBN is also plagued with asset quality issues like most of the banks in the industry. As expected, NPL ratio and restructured loans in 2Q16 continued to creep up. We expect to see more of this for at least another quarter while improvements on asset quality should be seen once economic growth picks up. We raised our NPL ratios across FY16-18F which resulted in a 1-3% cut to our earnings for the period. Loan growth will only benefit from secondary effects of infra spending. Management is guiding for 10-12% loan growth for 2016, mainly driven by SME and consumer loans. PNBN has historically been strong in the SME segment and remains so. As such, PNBN will unlikely be an early beneficiary of the infrastructure spending boom but will only benefit later. PNBN should start to feel the trickle-down effect from its SME clients in FY17F, in our view. Tax amnesty could be a positive catalyst. PNBN has been appointed as one of the perception banks (Bank Persepsi) to help facilitate the tax amnesty programme. Success of the tax amnesty programme, especially if it is followed by funds repatriation, should be beneficial to the bank, in our view. Valuation and recommendation We upgrade our recommendation to BUY as we believe PNBN has been left out during the recent rally in the banking stocks. PNBN offers solid fundamentals and is a potential M&A play. We upgrade our TP to Rp1,000 after imputing lower risk free rate assumption of 7.2% from previously 8.8% after sustained low risk free rate. Our TP is implies 1.0x FY16F BV using Gordon Growth Model (21% ROE, 11% growth and 14% cost of equity). Page 2

4 CRITICAL DATA POINTS TO WATCH Earnings Drivers: Sticking to its niche in SME. PNBN has always focused on the SME and commercial segments, particularly traders. Management expects to maintain 45% of its portfolio on SME loans and 15% on corporate loans. Management admitted they have no exposure on infrastructure projects and only expect a trickle-down effect. As such, we believe loan growth should be a modest 7% this year. NIM to stay stable. PNBN should enjoy lower time deposit rates from lower BI rate and deposit rate cap of BI rate +100bps. Time deposit rate has also gained importance for PNBN due to the lower CASA ratio. However, management sees tougher competition this year, limiting NIM upside. Average loan yield last year of 11.5% was the highest in five years and is not sustainable, in our view. Lending rates should also be adjusted with lower cost of funds since PNBN uses a cost-plus formula to price its loans. We expect NIM to stay flat at c.4% in FY16. Maintain liquidity, CASA ratio lower than historical levels. PNBN will keep its loan-to-deposit around the 90% level for Od its earning assets, 22% was allocated to the short-term money market (2-3 weeks) and marketable bonds to preserve liquidity. PNBN believes that it will be challenging for CASA ratio to revert to the 60% level and it will remain at the mid-40% level due to tighter competition in gathering CASA deposits. No significant increase in operating expenses. PNBN has been conservative in expanding the number of branches this year due to the slow economic environment. Opex should grow at similar rates in the past while cost-to-income should remain stable in the mid 50% level. Limited regulatory risk. PNBN has historically maintained its NIM level at the low 4% level while loan yield hovers between 10% and 11%. We believe the government's intention to either trim down lending rate to single digit or cap NIM at 4% should have minimal impact to PNBN. Normalising credit costs. PNBN has historically booked lower provisions due to its good asset quality management. Provision charge-off rate averaged 0.9% in the last five years. However, pre-implementation of PSAK 50/55, PNBN was conservative with provisions and booked high provision charge-off rates at the 1% level. Post-PSAK 50/55 (from 2011), provision chargeoff rates dropped to the % level. The slow economic environment in 2015 induced the bank to undertake aggressive provisioning with provision charge-off rates jumping to 1.3%, sending coverage ratio to a historical high of 118%. We expect the ratio to normalise at 0.8% with coverage ratio maintained above the 100% level.

5 Balance Sheet: Asset quality to stabilise by end of A prudent growth strategy has always been PNBN s priority and the majority of its SME and commercial loans are fully collateralised. As a result, PNBN has always maintained an NPL ratio of below 2% and provision expenses have been low, except for FY15. FY16F remains a challenging year with NPL ratios rising in 1H16, but we expect asset quality to stabilise towards the end of Strong capitalisation. Capitalisation has been strong due to its conservative growth and high-quality loan book, as well as strong capital boost from retained earnings due to its zerodividend payout policy. Share Price Drivers: Quality earnings; potential M&A target. PNBN has always focused on a conservative but high quality growth strategy with all loans fully collateralised. Asset quality has always been at manageable levels. PNBN is also a potential M&A target because of its attractive valuation. The potential divestment of ANZ's 39% stake in PNBN may be a share price catalyst. The 39% stake owned by ANZ, if sold, could trigger a tender offer, but whether this will materialise will depend on Panin Financial, i.e. the ultimate family owner. In the longer run, we would not discount the possibility of the family eventually selling out. Key Risks: Further asset quality deterioration. PNBN saw its NPL ratio creeping up to 2.8% in 2Q16. This is the highest NPL ratio since Restructured loans were also significantly higher. Asset quality should be closely monitored this year. 3.0% 2.5% 2.0% 1.5% 1.0% 0.5% 0.0% 22.0% 21.0% 20.0% 19.0% 18.0% 17.0% 16.0% 12.0% 10.0% 8.0% 6.0% 4.0% 2.0% 0.0% Asset Quality NPL Ratio Provision Charge-Off Rate Capitalisation (%) Tier-1 CAR Total CAR ROE (%) Company Background (PNBN) is one of the largest privately owned local banks in Indonesia, behind BBCA and Permata.
