Switch to Outperform from Buy We switch our rating for BBL to Outperform from Buy as we see some potential downside risk to its earnings and TP on its latest MLR rate cut. However, we still expect BBL to be most resilient to the macro headwinds given its healthiest balance sheet. Moreover, its cheap valuation (current P/BV at ‐1.75SD, almost near its five‐year historical low band) should post narrower downside risk on its share price. Maintaining financial targets despite the TTV case BBL maintained its key financial targets despite higher risk from the case of granting a letter of guarantee (L/G) of ~Bt1.64bn for the Thai TV (TTV) case. Note that the TTV case is still likely to be prolonged in the court process for a certain period of time. However, BBL has now moved ahead and decided to provide a full provision for the potential loss of such L/G in other expense items in 1Q16E after the bank booked some expenses in 4Q15 even though the L/G is still not classified as NPLs yet. Expect 1Q16E net profit of Bt8.0bn (‐14% YoY, +5% QoQ) The main reasons behind the NP drop YoY should be 1) a higher provision on weaker asset quality; and 2) lower extra gains on both investments and sales of foreclosed assets YoY (totaling Bt1.75bn in 1Q15 vs. our estimate of ~Bt800mn in 1Q16E); and 3) the booking of extra expenses for the TTV case as mentioned earlier (we assumed ~Bt1.1bn in 1Q16E). Meanwhile, the modest NP improvement QoQ should be due to a lower provision and higher NIM QoQ on the benefits of deposit re‐pricing. NPLs should remain higher QoQ reflecting the weak macro front. See potential downside risk to 16E earnings by ~3‐4% on MLR rate cut BBL followed suit with SCB and KBANK by cutting its MLR by 0.25% to 6.25% effective 6 April 2016. We expect the one‐way MLR rate cut (without lowering the deposit rate) to post downside risk to the bank’s 2016E net profit by around 3‐4% and ~4‐5% for 2017E, and possibly to its 2016E target price (TP) by ~2‐3% (or ~Bt4‐5/share). However, as in the normal scenario, we expect banks including BBL to lower deposit rates soon in order to manage NIM. Therefore, we see the net impact to the net profit and 16E TP likely being lower vs. our estimates. Financials and Valuation FY Ended 31 Dec
