The EPF should consider removing the current CEO and his team of senior management people. He and his team has been given ample opportunities and time to build a viable bank and yet whatever they implemented has never caught the eyes of influential investors who can give the share price a boost. Even it's shares in exchange for dividends cannot entice us to take it. Only the EPF took that option for years and in the process lost more and more EPF members hard earned subscriptions to the EPF. In my opinion, the CEO and his team of people are out of depth. They cannot bring value to MBSB at all. EPF need to be ruthless and do the right thing. MBSB as an Islamic Bank right now is a joke. I hope members here will pressure the EPF into doing the right thing instead of meaningless write-ups about MBSB that cannot get us out of this mountain of rubbish in MBSB.

Investment Highlights
We maintain our BUY call on Malaysia Building Society (MBSB) a revised fair value (FV) of RM0.78/share from RM0.62/share. Our revised FV is based on a higher ROE of 7.2% for FY21, pegging the stock to a P/BV of 0.6x (previously: 0.5x). We raise our FY20/21/22 earnings by 22.6%/23.1%/9.4% to reflect lower funding cost and higher non-interest income (NOII). The stock is trading at a cheap valuation of 0.4x P/BV with the potential for the group to further monetize gains on its financial investments due to the decline in MGS yields.
The group reported an underlying net profit of RM500mil (>100% QoQ) in 2Q20 after stripping out the modification loss of RM513mil which was due to the loan moratorium. RM471.4mil or 91.9% of the total modification loss was contributed by the waiver of interest payments on fixed rate personal financing for the 6-month moratorium (AprSept 2020). Moving into 4Q20, modification loss will be significantly smaller than in 2Q20 circa RM25–50mil. This is in view of the moratorium extension for another 3 months (Oct–Dec 2020) that is only be for the unemployed.
2Q20 core earnings improved on the back of lower funding cost with a decline in total deposits due to withdrawals, shortened tenure of deposits and the lower outstanding balances on sukuk murabahah.
6MFY20 net profit margin (NPM) expanded by 27bps YoY to 3.11% with the reduction in cost of funds. 2Q20 saw its funding cost falling by 70bps to 3.06%. With the consecutive OPR cuts, MBSB has advantage compared to its peers with its 52.3% financing in fixed rate. This has also helped to widen its profit margin in a declining interest rate environment. Management is now guiding for a profit margin of 3.0% vs. 2.5–2.6% previously.
In 2Q20, the group recorded higher gains from sale of FVOCI securities of RM107.5mil, coupled with a net writeback in allowances for loan losses of RM54mil.
For 6MFY20, the group delivered core earnings of RM427mil (124.6% YoY), underpinned by higher total income. Total income grew 27.2% YoY to RM892mil attributed to higher Islamic banking and NOII.
Normalized earnings for 6MFY20 were above expectation, making up 102.0% and 100.0% of our and consensus FY20 net profit estimates respectively.
