Bank of the Philippine Islands / Equity Bottom-Up

<p><strong><em>*Weak Results:</em></strong> Bank of the Philippine Islands (BPI.PM) [BPI] reported 4Q20 results of PHP 4.2 bn, declining PHP 1.3 bn (23.1%) linked quarter. Results were difficult across the board for BPI, but primarily driven by a justified PHP 885 mn (14.6%) increase in loss provisions – reversing the decline seen in 3Q20. BPI will be holding an analyst briefing on Friday 29 January 2021; and  </p><p><strong><em>*Credit Quality Challenges Set To Continue: </em></strong>BPI is still contending with higher than normal NCOs which have caused an accelerated level of net new NPLs at 4Q20 of 65.4%. Given the continued break in credit which shows no signs of abating, we find that BPI’s reserves are short by over PHP 19.0 bn – nearly five years of bottom-line performance.  </p>

Independent Asian Credit Research

Asian Fixed Income/Frontier Market Research

Bondcritic

Bondcritic, established in 2009, is designed to be an independent credit research voice that helps investors gain insights and unbiased analyses on Asian fixed income market. Our mission is to discover deep-value Asian high-yield and distressed bonds with a bottom-up approach, together with the help of our proprietary ESG (Environmental, Social Development, and Governance) model. At the same time, we focus on bringing investment cases of unrated and unloved issuers to the general public.

<p style="text-align: justify;">In this Smartkarma Original, we seek to study how diversity and incentives influence stock performance and profitability. We tallied diversity and incentive data related to the board of directors, management, and employees across major economies in Asia and picked top 10 companies of each country in terms of market capitalization. We chose to exclude major companies listed in exchanges of other economies such as Tencent and Alibaba to limit our sample size.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Then we devised diversity and incentive scores to assign to those companies and compare those scores against a 5-year trend of their return on shareholders’ equity (ROE) ratios and 1-year stock performance from 1-July-19 to 30-June-20 over its corresponding exchange indices.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">The report covers diversity vs. incentives in Asia, diversity score vs. 1-year stock performance and ROE trend, incentives vs. 1-year stock performance and ROE trend, diversity + incentives scores vs. 1-year stock performance and ROE trend, companies with top and bottom diversity + incentive scores, countries with top and bottom average diversity + incentive scores, and incentive score vs. staffing cost trend. </p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">The results show that companies with high diversity scores do perform well. A high diversity score also has a positive impact on the ROE trend, based on our regression analysis at 95% confidence level. We found that employee incentives are not significant as staff diversity but they can still have an influence on company performances at a lower 90% confidence level.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">We note that this study is at the preliminary stage and stock performance is a function of many factors, not only the diversity scores that we concluded. Needless to say, our diversity and incentive scores also reflect the level of disclosures by selected companies, not necessarily the actual practice within each company. Our diversity and incentive scores are also not a credit rating or ranking with peers and, hence, do not reflect default probability of selected companies.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">We caution that in Asia, many diversity trends in the West may not apply. The fact that many Asian business communities may remain less sensitive to equal opportunities for females, disabled persons, or LGBTQ communities could make returns of Asian companies less correlated to diversity than in the West. Likewise, additional incentives in some countries in Asia may not be necessary as employees’ strong performance (i.e. in Japan) is a norm, according to the prevalent work culture.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Bondcritic is developing a scoring model, which includes environment, social development, and corporate governance; the last of which cover diversity and incentives. This report is the first of the series to uncover shenanigans in the Asian corporate sector.</p>

Asian Governance: Diversity & Incentives Through the Cultural Lens

<p><strong><em>*Falling Very Short:</em></strong> Bank of the Philippine Islands (BPI.PM) [BPI] reported 2Q20 results of PHP 5.3 bn – missing consensus by 15% and falling short of 1Q20 by PHP 1.1 bn (17.1%). On an operating basis, assuming a normalized tax rate of 25% (versus the reported negative 6%), results would have come in far worse at PHP 3.8 bn – declining 40.5% linked quarter. Driving the poor result was the hefty loan loss provision of PHP 10.8 bn which increased PHP 6.5 bn or 155% over the period; and</p><p> <em><strong>*Credit Is Weak, Reserves Light:</strong></em>Stated NPLs remained flattish at PHP 26.7 bn or 1.83% of total loans, but deterioration is showing up in the form of massive NCOs at PHP 10.9 bn. The impact of COVID-19 on the global economy has only begun to take its toll, and we think that BPI needs a re-think of just maintaining current ratios. Our numbers suggest that BPI will need to add another PHP 53 bn to its coffers over the next four quarters. This suggest a near tripling of its loss reserve and represent nearly three years of pre-tax results for BPI – challenging its 15.6% CET1 ratio.</p>
