[Futu Holdings (FUTU US, BUY, TP US$55) TP Change]: Better Outlook in Both Domestic and Overseas

By Shawn Yang

  • We think Futu has proved its ability to retain its mainland China users. The DAU remained stable, and the growth rate of clients’ HK assets outpaced the market in July.
  • Futu’s overseas expansion is quickly ramping up in Japan, Malaysia, and is progress steadily in Singapore and Australia. We expect the monetization in Malaysia begin in 2024.
  • We expect Futu 2Q23 revenue 4.5% higher than consensus, our non-GAAP NI 8.7% higher than consensus. We maintain BUY rating on FUTU and raise TP by US$4 to US$55.
