Banca Sistema is a speciality finance provider with a primary focus on factoring receivables from the Italian public sector with salary and pension-based lending forming a second core activity. It is opportunistic and looking to diversify into new areas.
Investment summary
BST reported lending growth of more than 40% year-on-year in its 9M18 results but mix changes and some lumpiness associated with late payment interest (LPI) constrained earnings growth in the period; after an 11% increase in expenses and higher tax rate, earnings were 12% lower than for the prior year period. This effect should unwind as the business continues to grow. It would not require full delivery of the bank’s three-year plan targets, including ROE of over 18%, to warrant a higher valuation. The capital position remains strong with a CET1 ratio of 11.1%. FY18 results are due to be announced 8 February 2018.
