Malayan
Banking (Company Update): Dilution
from private placement (Maintain HOLD, TP: RM9.00) [download
report]
We are reducing our FY13 EPS forecast and target price
by 3% due to dilution from Maybank’s private placement of new shares at RM8.88
per share. Our target price has been
reduced from RM9.25 to RM9.00 per share.
We maintain a HOLD rating as Maybank remains one of our preferred
banking stocks for its defensiveness and relatively strong loan growth
momentum.
