BOC Hong Kong's Q1 Results Align with Projections, Receives Neutral Rating from UBS

Stock News04-30

UBS issued a research note stating that BOC Hong Kong's (02388) first-quarter operating profit increased by 0.4% year-on-year, slightly exceeding the bank's expectations. Revenue and pre-provision profit were largely in line with UBS forecasts, declining by 0.7% and 2.6% respectively compared to the same period last year. A reduction in net losses from fair value adjustments on investment properties during the period supported a 7% year-on-year growth in post-tax profit. UBS anticipates the market's reaction to BOC Hong Kong's financial performance will be neutral to slightly positive, maintaining a "Neutral" rating with a target price of HK$43.5.
