STB targets 2020E PBT of VND2.6 tn (-20% YoY) vs. our forecast of VND3.0 tn (-8% YoY). STB achieved PBT of VND1.3 tn in 5M20, fulfilling 51% of the bank\u2019s full-year target 44% of our forecast.<\/p>\n<p><strong>STB is targeting loan growth at 11% YoY in 2020E (vs our forecast of 12%)<\/strong>, asset growth of 10% YoY (vs our forecast of 6%), deposit\/subordinated note growth of 10% YoY (vs our forecast of 6%), and an NPL ratio of below 3.00% (vs. our forecast of 1.94%).<\/p>\n<p><strong>STB plans to restructure VND11.0 tn of nonperforming assets (NPAs) in 2020E<\/strong>. In Jan-May 2020, STB sucessfully auctioned off VND9.7 tn in face value of NPAs (from which it collected VND1.8 tn). As a reminder, STB resolved VND18.4 tn of NPAs in 2019, well ahead of last year\u2019s guidance of VND10tn-15tn.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Dividends are still off the table. <\/strong>Shareholders expressed eagerness to receive a didvidend in 2020, and the bank has asked for SBV approval to pay a stock dividend. However, that request is still under review.<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 18pt\"><strong>Our view<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<p><strong>Credit growth<\/strong> throughout the sector is likely to weaken due to the impact of Covid-19, and we believe that STB will be more focused on maintaining its asset quality rather than expanding loan growth. Nevertheless, we retain our forecast loan growth of 12% YoY in 2020E.<\/p>\n<p><strong>We expect NIM<\/strong> <strong>to decrease<\/strong> to 2.32% in 2020E (-14bps YoY) as STB has cut loan rates to support certain borrowers in line with SBV policy.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Credit costs should rise <\/strong>as we expect STB to prudently provision for newly restructured loans, some of which might not recover despite not being classified as NPLs (this is in line with SBV policy). We thus expect its LLR ratio to increase by 5ppt YoY to reach 74% in 2020E.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Our 2020E PBT forecast<\/strong> of VND3.0 tn (-8% YoY) is 15% above the bank\u2019s target and could face downside risk, largely depending on recoveries. Still, our forecast is -11% below the consensus.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Total NPAs <\/strong>(including VAMC bonds, accrued interest, receivable, and categories 3-5 NPLs)<strong> were 15.8% as at 1Q20 (-90bps QoQ\/-4.1ppt YoY), <\/strong>which is obviously high. However, the trend has been persistently favorable since 2017A, when NPAs peaked at 27.2% of the total assets <em>(see the figure in the left-side margin).<\/em><\/p>\n<p><strong>We reiterate <\/strong><a href=\"http:\/\/yuanta-uat.ysvn.com.vn\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/STB_Company-Update_04.24.2020.pdf\"><strong>BUY<\/strong><\/a>.
