BIMB Holdings: Maintain Buy - Cautious guidance factored in

Stock Name: BIMB
Company Name: BIMB HOLDINGS BHD
Research House: MAYBANKPrice Call: BUYTarget Price: 2.55



Buy, target price raised. BIMB Holdings' 51%-owned Bank Islam is taking a more cautious approach to lending in 2012 but will place more emphasis on portfolio rebalancing, which we view positively. Much of this cautiousness is reflected in our assumptions, but our net profit forecasts are nevertheless raised by 4-5% on lower credit cost estimates. With a higher target P/BV, our SOP-derived target price for BIMB is raised to RM2.55 from RM2.40.
