RBI: Q1 earnings and an ad-hoc release on RBI/RBZ merger plans
Yesterday evening Raiffeisen Bank International (RBI) has issued an adhoc release stating that the management boards of Raiffeisen Zentralbank
Oesterreich (RZB) and RBI have come to a decision to evaluate a merger
of the two institutions. The objective of the merger is to simplify the
corporate structure and to adapt the group to increasing regulatory
requirements. As of now, no specific plans have been worked out yet. RBI's
target of achieving a CET1 ratio of 12% by 2017 is maintained. It was
moreover mentioned that this would be a downstream merger, i.e., the
parent company (RZB) would be acquired by its subsidiary (RBI). The bank
2 detailed plans, resp. the advantages
plans to release further information on
and drawbacks of the merger, as it becomes available. RBI posted
consolidated earnings of EUR 114 m. in Q1 2016, an increase of 37%
compared to the previous year. The main reason for the rise in earnings
was a 60% decline in loan loss provisions, though they are projected to
increase again over the remainder of7 the financial year.

BIG posts solid 2015 annual result
As was already evident in the half-year report, BIG had to report a slight
decline in net earnings for FY 2015 (net profit -4% to EUR 402 m.), in spite
of a moderate improvement in revenues
(+6% to EUR 991 m.) and EBITDA
12
(+6% to EUR 623 m.). A once again “normalized” revaluation result has put
an end to the positive trend in earnings that has been in place since 2012.
This has however not stopped favorable cash flow performance from
continuing. With nearly unchanged net debt of EUR 3.8 bn., all credit
metrics could be improved. Around21
EUR 150 m. of the total volume of EUR
23
2.3 bn. in outstanding bonds is maturing
in 2016, and in view of an
ambitious residential construction program, fresh supply should be
expected. While BIG is in the meantime issuing bonds without an explicit
federal guarantee, its sovereign tasks as the federal government's real
estate company are imbuing it with 27
an Aaa status such as that enjoyed by
the Republic according to Moody's.
České Dráhy: Moody's upgrade to Baa2
Following the release of the 2015 annual report and in view of the pending
issue of an EUR-denominated bond, Moody's has reviewed its credit rating
of České Dráhy (Baa2/ stable) and upgraded the Czech national railway
company by one notch to Baa2.

Simplification of corporate
structure and regulatory
requirements are the reason for
the merger
No specific plans have been
worked out yet – a CET1 ratio of
12% in 2017 remains a target
Downstream merger considered
Integration of investments in
the consolidation not yet clear
RBI: Q1 Ergebnis und Ad Hoc Meldung zu RBI/RZB Merger
Yesterday evening Raiffeisen Bank International (RBI) has issued an ad-hoc
release stating that the management boards of Raiffeisen Zentralbank
Oesterreich (RZB) and RBI have come to a decision to evaluate a merger
between the two institutions. The objective of the merger is to simplify the
corporate structure and to adapt the group to increasing regulatory
requirements. In the course of today's early presentation of the group's Q1
2016 results, statements on the planned merger were made as well. The
board stresses in this context that there is merely the decision to pursue a
merger at the current juncture, but no detailed plans or calculations have
been made yet. These are to be worked out over the coming 6 months. The
merger will likely be implemented in H1 2017. RBI's target of achieving a
CET1 ratio of 12% by 2012 will be maintained. However, a reassessment
is possible in the course of combining the groups. It was furthermore
mentioned that this will be a downstream merger, i.e., the subsidiary RBI will
acquire its parent company RZB. Apart from its function as the Raiffeisen
sector's leading institution which fulfills management and services tasks,
RZB also has the function of an investment holding company. Among its
participatory interests are both bank-type and other corporate investments,
of which a 31.5% stake in UNIQA Insurance Group is worth highlighting. At
present the integration of these investments in the context of the
consolidation remains unclear as well. The bank intends to release
information on detailed plans, resp. the advantages and drawbacks of the
merger as it becomes available.

Q1 2016 consolidated earnings
of EUR 114 m.
Both net interest income as well
as commission income
decreased
Decline of net interest margin to
2.73%
CET1 ratio (fully loaded)
unchanged at 11,5%
RBI posted consolidated earnings of EUR 114 m. in Q1 2016, an increase of
37% compared to the previous year. The main reason for the increase in
earnings was a 60% decline in loan loss provisions, although they are
projected to increase again over the remainder of the financial year. In
addition, a negative trading results was reported last year due to foreign
currency positions in Ukraine and hedges on foreign currency dividends.
Both net interest income (-12.4% to EUR 718 m.) and commission income (3.4% to EUR 347 m.) declined; the decline in net interest income was not
only attributable to a reduction in lending volumes (-7%), but primarily also to
a decrease in the net interest margin (by -20 bps to 2.73%). The trading
result improved by EUR 90 m. to EUR 28 m. The increase is attributable to
the strong devaluation of Ukraine's currency in the previous year.
Rising administrative expenses were primarily due to contributions to the
bank resolution fund (+EUR 35 m.), which according to IFRS regulations
have to be recognized in the first quarter for the full FY 2016. This resulted
in an increase in the cost-income ratio (CIR) to 65%. RBI continues to
expect that its medium term objective of a CIR between 50% to 55% can be
achieved (mainly by selling its Polish subsidiary). The CET1 ratio (fully
loaded) could be maintained at an unchanged 11.5%.

2015: revenues +6%,
EBITDA +6%
Bundesimmobiliengesellschaft (BIG, Aaa/ negative) posted a better 2015
annual result than expected following the ´omen´ of the half-year report (see
also Erste Covered Bonds/ Financials Weekly of 02.09.2015). The
consolidated 2015 result included revenue growth of +6% to EUR 991 m.
and EBITDA growth of +6% to EUR 623 m., as a strong increase in costs for
personnel (+8%) and materials (+11%) was absorbed quite well. The
maintenance ratio was barely changed at 17.6%. The result was not only
supported by a 3% increase in rental income to EUR 795 m., but also by
higher proceeds from project development companies (EUR +16 m. to EUR
26 m.), resp. proceeds from rent concessions (EUR 12 m.).
Net earnings -4%
A return to a “normalized” revaluation result of EUR -7 m. after EUR +59 m.
(2014) was primarily responsible for ending the positive trend in earnings
growth that has been in place since 2012. EBIT of EUR 613 m. stood 4%
below the 2014 figure. As expected, the financial result (EUR -111 m. after
EUR -116 m.) benefited from the favorable interest rate environment, while
the tax burden was little changed. Overall, net earnings declined slightly by 4% to EUR 402 m. The recommended dividend payment to the federal
government as the 100% owner was raised from EUR 70 m. to EUR 104 m.
Positive cash flow trends
The trend in cash flows continued to be positive. Operating cash flow of
EUR 471 m. stood significantly above the previous year's EUR 425 m., even
if shifts in due dates for rental payments have repeatedly resulted in one-off
effects and showed up as positive effects in cash flow from working capital
(EUR +27 m. after EUR -21 m.). Investment of EUR 377 m. declined
moderately though, affecting investment cash flows commensurately, which
stood at EUR 310 m. after EUR 337 m. However, as a result of the
residential construction initiative of group company Austrian Real Estate
(ARE), we expect that significantly higher levels will be recorded in coming
years again.
Credit ratios improve across
the board
With net debt nearly unchanged at EUR 3.8 bn., all credit metrics could be
improved further. Thus the ratio of net debt/ EBITDA has declined from 6.4x
to 6.1x and loan-to-value from 32% to approx. 30%. Balance sheet ratios
have strengthened further, with the equity ratio at 53% and gearing at 59%.
The planned increase in investment activity will however cap further
improvements in our view.

Outlook: growth in residential
construction
Strong growth is planned in coming years, which is already visible in the
increasing number of consolidated companies. In 2015 19 new companies
were founded overall, the number of fully consolidated enterprises has risen
from 24 to 35, that of companies accounted for at equity from 18 to 26. The
main focus of the expansion will be subsidiary ARE, which currently
manages EUR 2.3 bn. (fair value as of 31.12.2015) in real estate assets,
mainly comprised of office, commercial and development properties. The
from now on substantially intensified residential construction activities are
pooled in ARE as well. Until 2020 a total of EUR 2.0 bn. is to be invested in
residential construction, i.e. an average of around EUR 400 m. per year, for
the erection of 6,000 rental apartments and 4,000 condominiums, in order to
ease the tense situation in Austria's housing market. Currently around 78%
of the group's real estate assets are still managed by the BIG parent group,
particularly properties rented out to the federal government. The group's
individual financial statement (UGB/ Austrian corporate code) showed
revenue growth of 3% to EUR 760 m. in 2015 and an increase in net
earnings by 14% to EUR 189 m.
Primary market supply in the
framework of an EMTN
program
The BIG Group currently finances the majority of its financial liabilities (EUR
3.8 bn. as of year-end 2015) through the capital markets via an EMTN
program (private placements, bond issues) with a scope of EUR 4.0 bn. As
of year-end 2015 around 55% were financed through bonds, 23% through
bank loans and around 22% through the money markets (commercial
paper). The remaining term to maturity of the group's bonds amounted to an
average of 7.5 years, with 70% having fixed coupons. A total issuance
volume of EUR 2.1 bn. is currently outstanding, including foreign currencydenominated bonds, 38% in CHF and 15% in JPY, all of which are fully
hedged against foreign exchange risk. In 2016 the equivalent of EUR 150 m.
is maturing, and in view of the ambitious residential construction investment
program, fresh primary market supply has to be expected. While BIG is
issuing bonds without an explicit federal guarantee, its sovereign tasks as
the federal government's real estate company (mainly schools, universities,
official buildings), which generate 95% of its revenues, are imbuing it with an
Aaa status such as that enjoyed by the Republic according to Moody's.

“Provisional” Baa2 rating
ahead of an EUR-denominated
bond issue
České Dráhy: Moody's upgrade to Baa2/stable
Following the release of ČD's 2015 annual report (see also Erste Covered
Bonds/ Financials Weekly of 04.05.2016) and in view of a pending EURdenominated bond issue, Moody's has reviewed its credit rating of České
Dráhy (Baa2/ stable) and upgraded the Czech national railway company by
one notch to Baa2 (“provisional”) with a stable outlook. The agency justifies
the stronger rating by citing an improvement in the structural performance of
the group's operating business, as well as its debt levels, which should
remain stable over a two-year horizon. In addition, the liquidity position has
improved, which is also aimed at the apparently imminent EUR-denominated
bond issue.
Rating history of České Dráhy
Source: Moody´s, Erste Group Research
Stronger baseline credit
assessment
The upgrade is in line with a stronger baseline credit assessment (BCA),
which has been improved from ba3 to ba2. With respect to the trend in the
adjusted debt/ EBITDA ratio, a target range of 4.5x to 5.0x is expected in the
time period until 2018. Capital expenditure is estimated to be in a range of
CZK 5 to 6 bn. (equivalent to approx. EUR 200 m.). Important arguments in
favor of the baseline assessment are ČD's quasi-monopoly role as the
national railway company, the importance of the passenger transport
business, with the risk that long-term contracts with the Republic and the 14
regional authorities won't be extended after 2019 seen as small, as well as
improvements at freight transport subsidiary ČD Cargo. The Czech
Republic's A1 rating is supportive as well. The stable outlook for the rating
has been maintained. The underlying assumptions are that operating trends
will remain stable over the coming 18 to 24 months, and that it will be
possible to renew most long term contracts.
EUR 300 m. redemption in June
The volume of EUR 800 m. in currently outstanding bonds (apart from
private placements) by the two group companies ČD a.s. and the 100%
subsidiary ČD Cargo has only relatively short remaining terms to maturity
until 2018 and consists of three placements by ČD a.s. and two by ČD
Cargo. Among the three redemptions coming due in 2016 is a EUR 300 m.
bond maturing in June of 2016, which is supposed to be refinanced shortly.
