Vestjysk Bank: ABGSC’s DK small/mid-cap seminar feedback - ABG

DJS merger on track, DPS for 2022 seem confirmed
Good organic momentum, CEO see’s low Covid-19 risk
VB is trading in the low end of our DKK 2.8-5.6 FV range

This morning, Vestjysk Bank (VB) CEO Jan Ulsø Madsen presented at ABGSC’s Danish small/mid-cap seminar. Following the merger with Den Jyske Sparekasse (DJS) in January, VB has a market share in Denmark of ~2%. Its lending exposure is concentrated in Jutland, where VB has its 30 branches; 64% of lending is to clients in the middle part of Jutland. The bank has ~680 employees and its exposure is tilted slightly towards business customers (54%), and particularly agriculture (16%). In May, Arbejdernes Landsbank (AL) increased its stake in VB to 73%. VB becoming part of the AL group leads to a SIFI CET1 add-on of 1pp, taking the company CET1 target up to 15.5% vs. 17.9% CET1 as of Q2.

VB is trading at a 22e adj. PE of 7.5x while the share could see support from the M&A angle related to AL and potential synergies attached. VB is trading in the low end of our DKK 2.8-5.6 fair value range.
