Price Performance Summary Investment Thesis and Valuation
Investment Thesis
SUN appears to be in a simplification phase strategically and a
consolidation phase operationally, having sold both the Bank
and the NZ Life business. The sale of the bank has now received
the necessary regulatory approval, removing short-term
uncertainty for the stock, and the expected capital return from
the sale funds should be a near-term positive. Pricing in the
industry remains strong and continues to be a tailwind for
Suncorp, with sticky inflation showing signs of easing. The
lower level of reinsurance for Suncorp relative to IAG means
YTD 1m 3m 12m less earnings certainty, but also allows more opportunity for
Abs 9.6% 12.5% 22.5% -10.2% earnings upside. We have a Neutral rating, noting a slightly
Rel 8.6% 12.2% 20.7% -11.4%
negative recent perils experience.
