Banca Carige (Buy) A restructuring story with M&A appeal

A restructuring story with M&A appeal

The facts: We are publishing this morning a company update on Banca Carige.

Our analysis: - Better operating profits: The main income driver will remain NII:

the main income source is targeted to grow by EUR 255m in 5Y, with a 11.8%

CAGR, mainly thanks to a very strong reduction in funding costs. The net

commissions are expected to increase by EUR 148m in 5Y, with a 9.3% CAGR,

thanks to a higher weight of AUM on indirect funding (from 48.7% to 56.6%) and

the relaunch of lending growth. We consider these revenue targets as quite

ambitious, as we think increasing the weight of AUM requires significant

investments in staff training for customer advice.

- Improved risk profile: To cut the cost of credit risk to 90bps in 2017 and

41bps in 2019, the bank plans to reduce the share of bad loans stock via

disposal of EUR 1-1.5bn with non-recourse, with a gross capital loss

estimated in EUR 150-200m (or 30bps of CET1) to be finalized in 2016. The

bank will also maximize recovery rates through a partnership agreement with

a servicer for positions not exceeding EUR 5m, for a portfolio of EUR 2-2.7bn

and estimated commissions of 4-6bps in terms of cost of risk.

- H1 15 results: The most outstanding achievement of the de-risking process

realized by the mgmt. over the last year was a fall in loan impairments in Q2,

decreasing 30% Q/Q and 46% Y/Y to EUR 54m. In H1 15 the bank signed

workout agreements for EUR 813m worth of unlikely-to-pay loans, planned to

reach over EUR 1.6bn by end-Sep. Once restructured, these loans will be

classified in the forborne category and may return to performing loans after

1Y. These would allow to halve the unlikely-to-pay loans, currently at EUR

3.3bn gross.

- M&A appeal: Apart from the restructuring story on a standalone basis, we

think Banca Carige is likely to be involved in the expected consolidation of the

Italian banking sector, possibly in two different ways. We think Banca Carige

could be easily integrated in a larger group as its branch network remains

highly concentrated in the historical region of Liguria. In a top-down approach,

we estimate on avg. 17% of Banca Carige’s cost base can be cut in 3Y by a

potential partner, with a value creation of EUR 0.35 per Carige share.

- Alternatively, the subsidiaries Carige Italia and BML make up approx. 53%

of group revenues and 33% of customer loans. While their relative size for the

group is high, in our view their local market shares are too limited to give

them a competitive advantage and it could make sense for the parent

company to sell them. Their disposal at a price in line with the carrying values

(over EUR 0.8bn) would add up to 550bps to the group’s capital ratios,

freeing up approx. EUR 1.1bn capital (or EUR 1.3 per share) and offering the

mgmt. the means to distribute an extraordinary dividend and invest into the

transformation of the remaining Banca Carige from a traditional retail bank

into a wealth manager.

Conclusion & Action: The business plan targets a ROTE of 8% in 2019: Banca

Carige will not match its estimated COE in the next 5Y and will destroy value in

the meantime. Therefore, our standalone target price is EUR 2.2 per share, or

0.7x P/TBV. However, we think an aggregation by a larger group could add EUR

0.35 per share of additional cost synergies, while the disposal of the branch

network outside Liguria could free up capital for as much as EUR 1.3 per share.

Enel (Accumulate) A restructuring story with M&A appeal

Going-on

The facts: “Milano Finanza” published an interview with Mr. Starace, Enel’s CEO.

Our analysis: in our view, the main issues of the interview are:

2016 dividend, already announced in terms of floor (EUR 0.18 per share –

yield around 4.6%) may be conservative and thus investors ought to look

for a positive surprise;

Mr. Starace confirmed Enel’s growth path in the renewable and in the

network sectors. Most of the planned growth in the coming years, in fact,

will come from these two units;

the exclusive talks with EPH for Slovenske Electrarne disposal are

proceeding and the sale ought to materialise in two steps. The first stake

due to be sold is expected in the coming months (by the end of 2015),

the second step once the nuclear unit constructions ends;

Enel is facing the technical issues of the “national broadband project” with

Telecom Italia. Enel confirmed its interest in the project by opening its

network infrastructures and bundling fibre with new devices in the

planned substitution of 33m new generation-domestic-digital meters.

News on this matter is expected soon.

Conclusion & Action: Mr. Starace is continuing to deliver on the announced

targets and the change to increase 2016 dividends is confirming the quality of the

results posted. We continue to appreciate Enel’s strategic moves both in Italy and

abroad and we reiterate our positive stance on the stock: accumulate.

FCA likely to wait until 2016 before moving on GM

The facts: According to Bloomberg, FCA is likely to wait until next year before

making a bid for GM as the spin-off of Ferrari - due in early 2016 - could be the

catalyst for FCA to make an offer for the U.S. automaker.

According to the article, the Ferrari separation is a cornerstone in the process to

combines FCA with GM because a) it would grant money to afford an offer and b)

because the Agnelli family is keen to keep control of the Italian supercar maker.

Our analysis: We have always thought that FCA intended to merge its operations

with GM after the spin-off of Ferrari as the management started to tackle the

subject of industry consolidation only after having engineered the separation of the

sports car maker.

The IPO of Ferrari – due after 12 October 2015 – is going to grant FCA a EUR

1bn cash-in in the best case; we argue that FCA may afford a very limited stake in

GM: the US carmaker's market cap is ~EUR 42bn, while FCA's current market cap

is EUR 18.5bn; Ferrari potentially weighs for EUR 9bn on that market cap.

If we assume that the Ferrari equity value is EUR 10bn and that FCA is going to

cash in EUR 1bn from the IPO and give the remaining shares to its own

shareholders for free, the current FCA-ex-Ferrari market cap is ~EUR 10.5bn or

~25% of the GM market cap: it is clear that any attempt of FCA to merge with GM

should lever on the support of activist funds.

Conclusion & Action: We do not expect the news to have any impact on FCA

share price today.

New rumours on savings' conversion

The facts: new rumours of a potential offer on behalf of TI to exchange the

conversion shares appeared last Friday. The company dismissed the rumour in a

press release. Unrelated, new statements from TI and Vivendi management

supporting a long-term industrial partnership.

Our analysis: TI management admitted again in the Q2 results conference call

that the current capital structure was not optimal given the presence of 6bn

savings shares, and conceded in H2 the issue would be addressed by the board.

New rumours emerged on Friday that a proposal of conversion would be have

been discussed by TI's control and risk committees in early August; the article

suggested a 1:1 exchange ratio along with a cash payment worth half of the

current difference in value of just below EUR 20c. In this case, TI would cash-in

around EUR 0.5bn, as a side effect, Vivendi's stake would be diluted from 14.9%

to c 10.3%. TI confirmed that the deal has "been analysed internally", but added

that "at the present time, no formal executive plan exists".

On the TI/Vivendi relationships, the top managers of both companies commented

on their relationships amid the Cernobbio business meeting; Vivendi reiterated its

long term view on the investment and praised TI's strategy and the synergy

potential in content distribution. At the same time, Vivendi denied interest for

Mediaset and the intention to increase the stake in Telefonica from the current

1%. A potential further increase in TI's stake was not ruled out, though.

Conclusion & Action: the conversion of TI savings shares is expected to take

place sooner rather than later. TI's statement just says it has not been approved

for the time being. We believe it is still time to play the spread. On TI/VIV, we do

not see further short-term newsflow.

Feedback from H1 presentation: challenging guidance

FY 15 guidance confirmed: during the H1 presentation the management

confirmed the FY 15 guidance given in July:

- FY 15 EBIT at EUR -30 / -40m;

- FY NFP at EUR 450m (+/- 15m).

In light of the negative H1 results (H1 EBIT -104.5m), FY 15 EBIT guidance of

EUR -30/-40m is very challenging; however, the management is confident to meet

the guidance thanks to both the good visibility of the order book (5-6 months for

Trevi, > 2 months for Soilmec and 6 months for Drillmec) and several contracts

that should be signed shortly.

Our analysis: we consider these targets very challenging, so we set FY 15

estimates more prudent compared to the management indications: FY 15e EBIT

moved from EUR -37m to EUR -47m.

Conclusion & Action: we confirm our Neutral recommendation and, based on

the revised estimates, our Target Price decreases from EUR 1.90 to EUR 1.50 per

share (DCF model – WACC from 7.6% to 7.9% and 1.5% perpetual growth rate)

while we wait to verify the orders delivery, the obtaining of new contracts and the

NFP trend in the coming months.

UniCredit (Neutral) Feedback from H1 presentation: challenging guidance

Interview with Mr Ghizzoni in La Repubblica

The facts: Italian daily La Repubblica publishes this morning an interview with Mr

Ghizzoni, UniCredit’s CEO.

Our analysis: In the interview, Mr Ghizzoni flags the main guidelines for the

upcoming revision of the business plan.

He considers 3-5Y business plans must be regularly updated due to the rapid

change of the environment, like the booming asset mgmt. industry or the

European Banking Union, both unexpected 3Y ago.

The update of the business plan will be concentrated on the relaunch of organic

growth in specific activities, like the asset mgmt., private banking, investment

banking and specific segments of CIB, like export and FDI financing or investment

banking solutions for mid-corporate clients.

Mr Ghizzoni highlights the group started successfully a new approach in France,

where initially the bank was serving the Italian firms investing there, but is now

doing business with French multinationals investing in CEE, where UniCredit can

leverage on its regional leadership. The same approach will now be launched in

Spain, UK and USA.

In terms of capital, he thinks the uncertainty has been generated by the lack of a

clear and stable regulatory target, due to the introduction of the yearly SREP

revision. However, Mr Ghizzoni stresses the bank is already ahead of the

business plan target (10% CET1 ratio by end-2016) and generates capital on an

organic basis (15-20bps per quarter). Going on, the bank will try to optimize the

capital allocation on the businesses offering the best returns, while scaling back

those without proper value creation.

Conclusion & Action: The upcoming revision of the business plan will not be

based just on cost cuts and staff reduction, but also on the relaunch of organic

growth and better capital allocation. We stick to Neutral with EUR 6.6 target price.
