Goldman Sachs released a research report raising its 2025 pre-provision operating profit (PPOP)/ net profit forecasts for CM BANK (03968.HK) by 3.4%/ 2.7% each, following the release of CM BANK's 2024 results, reflecting slightly improved net interest margin and updated guidance of 8% YoY loan growth.

Therefore, the broker added its target price to $48.96 from $47.36, with rating at Buy.

Goldman Sachs believed that the lower-than-expected performance of CM BANK is mainly due to its lower-than-expected dividend, as both 2024 and 1H25 dividends were largely flat. This may pose a potential downside risk to return on equity (ROE) as a result of ongoing capital accumulation, assuming else equal.
