IDEA OF THE DAY UOB’s ($20.33, up 0.29) earnings for 3Q15 decreased marginally by 1.0% yoy, but was up 12.6% qoq at $858 million, coming in about 5.3% above expecta ons. Total income was 5.8% higher at $2.09 billion, led by strong core income and one-off gains from sale of investment securi es. Net interest income grew 6.9% to $1.24 billion in 3Q15. Net interest margin increased 6 basis points to 1.77%, contributed mainly by improved loan yields as the loan por olio re-priced on rising interbank and swap offer rates. Fee and commission income grew 2.1% to $485 million, on higher contribu ons from credit card and wealth management income. Trading and investment income surged 20.6% to $310 million due to one-off gains from the sale of investment securi es, but partly offset by lower net trading income. Consequently, non-interest income for 3Q15 increased 4.2% to $850 million. Total expenses increased 13.0% to $904 million mainly on higher headcount and increased business volumes in support of franchise growth. Expense-to-income ra o was 43.4% in 3Q15. Total allowances were flat at $160 million. Gross loans grew 3.7% from a year ago and 0.4% quarter-on-quarter to $203 billion as at 30 September 2015. In constant currency terms, the underlying loan growth was 5.5% when compared to the same period last year. The Group’s liquidity posi on remained robust. Customer deposits rose 9.0% from a year ago and 1.3% over 2Q15 to $245 billion as at 30 September 2015, led mainly by growth in Singapore dollar deposits. The Group’s loan to deposit ra o was 81.6% with deposit growth outpacing loan growth in the quarter. The Singapore dollar and all currency liquidity coverage ra os were 186% and 134% respec vely, well above the regulatory requirements of 100% and 60%. Asset quality stayed resilient with a NPL ra o of 1.3% as at 30 September 2015, albeit an increase from 1.2% before due to a few problema c oil and gas accounts. NPL coverage remained strong at 142.7% and 345.4% if collateral was considered.

US stocks fell 0.4-0.5% paring the strongest monthly gain since 2011 as weaker- than-es mated quarterly results weighed on financial and consumer staples shares. Energy and raw-material companies, two of the strongest groups since September, added to their gains in the month’s final session, with Exxon Mobil Corp and Chevron Corp rising a er pos ng be er-than-expected earnings. VIX the fear gauge rose 3.4% amid heightened vola lity.

FSSTI INDEX 3600 3500 3400

Shareholders’ equity increased 5.6% from a year ago to $30.2 billion as at 30 September 2015, largely contributed by net profits and improved valua ons on available-for-sale investments. Return on equity was 11.1%. As at 30 September 2015, the Group’s strong capital posi on remained well above the MAS minimum requirements with Common Equity Tier 1 and Total CAR at 13.6% and 16.4% respec vely. The Group’s leverage ra o stood at 7.2% as at 30 September 2015, well above the minimum requirement of 3%. Looking ahead, management maintains for a mid-single digit loan growth across their loan por olio, slightly be er than OCBC’s low single digit loan growth guidance. With the 12 month SIBOR having doubled on a year on year basis and with the US Federal Reserve expec ng to start raising interest rates in Dec’15, UOB’s net interest margin which has risen 6 basis points in 3Q’15 is expected to rise further. Part of this is expected to be offset by higher NPL and slowing loans growth though.

To celebrate its 80th year of founding, UOB has declared a one- me special dividend of 20 cents a share. Including its normal annual 70 cents a share, dividend yield is an a rac ve 4.4% (3.4% div yield if we exclude the one- me 20 cents dividend). This coupled with its undemanding 10x PE, 1.1x book and decent ROE of 11-12%, we maintain our BUY recommenda on (we note that The Wee family has been buying shares in UOB recently with 250,000 shares purchased in Aug’15 at $19 and 270,000 shares purchased in June’15 at $22.835, raising their stake to 18.1% of the company).

OTHER HIGHLIGHTS NOL ($0.995, unchanged) has reported a 3Q 2015 net loss of US$96 mln, compared to a net loss of US$23 mln in 3Q 2014, mainly due to the absence of the tradi onal third quarter peak season in Europe and North America that led to severe freight rates erosion in major trade lanes. The group posted a third quarter 2015 Core EBIT loss of US$66 mln, versus a Core EBIT of US$21 mln in the same quarter last year. NOL’s Core EBITDA in 3Q 2015 was US$21 mln, compared to US$114 mln in the same period last year. While NOL’s cost savings program yielded US$80 mln in 3Q15, bringing its total YTD cost savings to US$335 mln, this was more than offset by weak global demand and huge contrac on in freight rates. In 3Q 2015, APL, NOL’s container shipping business, reported a revenue decline of 29% to US$1.2b versus the same quarter last year. APL’s average freight rates fell 21% amidst pressure from over-capacity in the industry. Volume contracted 11%, which APL a ributed to various reasons, including a significant drop in U.S. exports and weak demand in the Intra-Asia short-sea market. APL also voided sailings in response to weak global demand and trimmed capacity in unprofitable trade lanes. APL was able to maintain a high headhaul u lisa on of above 90%. As part of its effort to ra onalise network, 6 chartered ships were returned in the 3Q and as a result, total cost of sales per forty-foot-equivalent unit (FEU) fell by 17% yoy due to opera onal cost efficiencies and lower bunker costs. We downgrade NOL to HOLD as valua on appears fair at 0.73x P/B given the current challenging industry environment. Oxley Holdings ($0.42, unchanged) revealed that its second development project in Phnom Penh, Cambodia, The Peak, has achieved sales of more than 50% of Phase 1 of the development, comprising 507 residen al units in Tower 1. Located in the heart of Phnom Penh facing the Mekong River and within close proximity to Naga World Hotel and Aeon Mall, The Peak is a freehold 55-storey mixed-use development comprising two residen al towers with a total of 1,014 units, one commercial tower with 15 levels of office units and a hotel with approximately 300 rooms, si ng above a podium with five levels of retail space. Construc on of The Peak is expected to commence in early 2016 and the development is expected to be completed in 2020. The residen al towers at The Peak are designed to offer a range of units from studio apartments to 1-, 2- and 3-bedroom apartments and penthouses to suit various lifestyle needs. The development has two levels of recrea on facili es and a sky bridge offering breathtaking views. Buyers of The Peak residen al units are guaranteed a 12% net rental return over two years, subject to condi ons. Tiong Seng Holdings ($0.235, up 0.5 cent) announced that it has been awarded a contract from the Land Transport Authority of approximately S$72.9 mln for the proposed construc on of a bus depot at Sungei Seletar. The latest contract is not expected to have any material impact on the group’s NTA and EPS for the current FY15.

Saizen REIT ($0.925, unchanged) has accepted an offer for the acquisi on of all the real estate assets in Saizen REIT’s por olio in Japan by Triangle TMK for an agreed purchase considera on of JPY44,660.0 mln (S$517.3 mln), subject to adjustments, if any. Triangle TMK is a Japanese affiliate of Lone Star Real Estate Fund IV and Lone Star Funds. The purchase considera on is at a 3.4% premium to the appraised value of the Proper es and is es mated to translate into an implied net offer price of S$1.172 per unit of Saizen REIT, or a slight premium to Saizen REIT’s adjusted NAV per Unit based on audited figures as at 30 June 2015, a er taking into account es mated transac on-related costs and expenses. The es mated implied net offer price of S$1.17 per Unit also represents a 36.9% premium above the closing price of S$0.855 per Unit on 22 October 2015, being the day immediately prior to the Manager’s announcement of the Offer on 23 October 2015, and a 40.9% premium above the 1-month volume-weighted average price per Unit as of 22 October 2015. The Manager intends to distribute the net proceeds from the proposed transac on to Saizen REIT’s unitholders as soon as prac cable following comple on of the Proposed Transac on via special distribu on(s). However, the proposed transac on is s ll condi onal upon, among others, approval from Unitholders at an EGM of Saizen REIT to be convened and is expected to be completed in the 1Q of 2016 and no later than 31 March 2016 or such other date as the par es may agree in wri ng. The ming and details concerning the special distribu on(s) proposals will be provided in the Unitholders’ circular for the purpose of seeking Unitholders’ approval for the Proposed Transac on. Overseas Educa on Ltd ($0.645, up 0.5 cent) has issued a profit warning for its 3Q FY15 results, based on a preliminary review of the unaudited management accounts of the Group. It expects to record a materially lower profit before income tax for Q3 2015, compared to the same period last year. This is mainly due to the higher deprecia on charges associated with the comple on of the newly completed school campus and the finance costs on bond borrowings from 1 July 2015. IFS Capital Ltd ($0.35, up 2.0 cents) has warned that the group is expected to report a net higher loss for Q3 2015 which is likely to also result in a net loss for 9M 2015 as compared to the corresponding periods last year. Based on the preliminary review of its dra unaudited consolidated financial results for the Q3 2015 and for the 9M 2015, the poor performance can be a ributable to (i) fair value loss on quoted equity shares from weak market sen ment; and (ii) higher specific allowances for loan and receivable losses. Further details of the Group’s financial performance will be provided when it announces its financial results for Q3 2015 and 9M 2015.
