Company Report

HSBC Earnings: Higher-for-Longer Interest Rates; Raising Fair Value Estimate

We lift our fair value estimate for HSBC to GBP 872 per share (HKD 84.80, $54.50 per ADR) from GBP 850 (HKD 80.00, $51.00) following first-quarter 2024 results that reflected solid noninterest income growth. Its net interest margin of 1.63% is also tracking our expectation comfortably, particularly with interest rates looking to stay high into second-half 2024. HSBC’s share price is reacting positively to the results as well as the announced ordinary dividend of $0.10 per share, a special dividend of $0.21 per share, and a share buyback of $3 billion for the second quarter. We remain buyers of HSBC.

Bulls Say, Bears Say

Bulls

HSBC has cost advantages and significant intangible assets in its core market of Hong Kong that help it generate strong earnings there even when the local economy is weaker.

Bears

HSBC has operations in many jurisdictions around the world, including some where it is a secondary player and doesn't enjoy the same advantages that it does in core markets like Hong Kong.
