Ping An Insurance Group (2318 HK)
2022: Results Below Expectations; Expect 1Q23 NBV To Turn Positive


Ping An's 2022 results missed our expectations due to the challenging macroeconomic
conditions.

However, the positive impact from its life insurance reform has started to take effect, resulting in a positive growth in life NBV in Feb 23, which continued into Mar 23.

Management expects positive NBV growth for 1Q23 and 2023.

Management announced an annual dividend of Rmb2.42 per share.

We maintain our BUY rating but cut target price to HK$67.50 as we trim our 2023/24 net profit.

Ping An Insurance
Datapoints indicate a good 1H23F


We are increasingly confident of double-digit first-year premium (FYP) growth in 1H23F, driven by both strength in bancassurance and agent productivity.

Mar-Jun 2023F FYP growth yoy to benefit from a low base, in our view. 2023F subway traffic running well above 2019 levels is also a key positive.

While we still expect subdued margins, in part due to assumption changes, we remain confident of Ping An delivering a 9% NBV growth in FY23F.

We reiterate our Add call, with an unchanged SOP-based TP of HK$80

Ping An Insurance Group (2318 HK)
1Q23: Net Profit Above Expectations; Signs Of Recovery Emerge


Ping An’s 1Q23 net profit and NBV increased by 42.5% yoy and 8.8% yoy respectively,
beating our expectations.

The better-than-expected results were mainly driven by the agency, bancassurance, and community grid channels, demonstrating positive yoy growth.

Looking ahead, management expects premiums to rebound on macroeconomics.

Maintain BUY with a higher target price of HK$70.45 as we slightly tweak our 2023/24 forecasts to reflect a solid revenue recovery.

Navigating a 70% growth cliff

The acceleration of Ping An’s 2Q23’s individual first year premium (FYP) growth to 70% yoy (from 1Q23’s 10%) beat our forecast of 50% yoy.

Given that 1Q23’s 10% individual FYP growth led to 1Q23’s 8.8% NBV growth, a 2Q23F NBV growth of more than 60% looks possible.

With the strong 2Q23 FYP growth, in part due to regulatory changes, we see risks of falling NBV growth yoy in both 3Q23F and 2Q24F. Reiterate Add. TP HK$80

Ping An Insurance Group (2318 HK)
Strong Premium Growth In 1H23; Limited Impact Under New Accounting Standard


Ping An’s 1H23 and June insurance premium increased 7.2% and 12.9% yoy respectively, underpinned by strong demand for savings insurance products and 3.5% life insurance products.

Looking ahead, we expect premium growth to soften in 2H23 after the exit of the 3.5% insurance product.

The recent disclosure of financial information under IFRS 17 by Ping An shows a smooth transition with minimal impact.

Maintain BUY with unchanged target price of HK$70.45.
