Summary Itaú Unibanco reported solid Q4 2024 results, with record net profits, controlled credit costs, and improved asset quality, despite slightly missing EPS estimates.

Itau Unibanco: Around Fairly Priced In P/B

Summary Itau Unibanco is generating solid growth and attractive ROEs with its Brazil-focused lending and deposits business. It trades well above 1x P/B, and when looking at its solid growth rate but high cost of equity, also reflected in high local rates, there isn't obvious value. The growing book but shrinking credit costs is a good sign, but with big businesses in consumer credit as well, we aren't excited about the price and have better alternatives.

Itaú Unibanco: Market Leader With Growth Potential

Having generated a revenue of BRL 125,601 billion in 2021, Itaú Unibanco is the largest bank in Brazil. Itaú Unibanco has agreed today to acquire control of Avenue, which is a brokerage that aims to provide Brazilians with access to foreign markets. With its digital bank operating under the name iti Itáu, the company is approaching a younger target group that does not yet have a bank account. The digital bank reached 16.7 million customers in Q1 2022. In the first quarter of 2022, 2.1 million new clients were acquired. Investment Thesis I believe that Itaú Unibanco's (ITUB) digital bank iti Itaú will further increase its customer base by focusing on a younger target group that has not yet opened a banking account. Due to its strong brand image, which has been built throughout 97 years of history and driven by its digital transformation process as well as the strong customer growth of its digital bank, I expect Itaú Unibanco to be able to compete successfully against traditional banks, digital banks and fintechs in the future. The usage of relative valuation models such as the P/E Ratio shows that Itaú Unibanco is currently undervalued. In my opinion, the Itaú Unibanco stock is a buy. Itaú Unibanco has a very strong market position in Brazil and is increasingly focusing on the digital sector, which promises growth prospects. Industry Overview of the Brazilian Banking Sector Itaú Unibanco is a Brazilian full-service bank with 97 years of history. It is the largest Brazilian bank in terms of revenue. Operating through more than 4,100 physical branches, the company has a presence in 18 different countries worldwide (focusing mainly on Latin America). With more than BRL 2 trillion assets under management ((AUM)), Itaú Unibanco is the largest private asset manager in Latin America. In a previous article for Seeking Alpha, in which I wrote about the Brazilian investment broker XP Inc (XP), I gave an introduction to the Brazilian banking sector. For that reason, I will only briefly cover the topic here: In Brazil, the 5 largest banks (Itaú Unibanco, Bradesco (BBD), Banco do Brasil (BDORY), Caixa Econômica Federal and Banco Santander Brasil (BSBR)) manage 82% of all assets within the country. Business Model of Itaú Unibanco Itaú Unibanco's business units can be divided into the following: credit, trading, insurance & services and excess capital. From its credit business unit, Itaú Unibanco generated revenue of BRL 67.9 billion in 2021 compared to BRL 62.7 billion in 2020, resulting in an increase of 8.3%. With the business unit of insurance & services, the bank generated revenue of BRL 55.6 billion in 2021 compared to BRL 50.3 billion in 2020, representing an increase of 10.5%. The data shows us that the two business units of credit and insurance & services represent Itaú Unibanco's most important business areas, as they are where most revenue is generated. Revenue of Itaú Unibanco's business units Source: Itaú Unibanco Annual Report 2021 Itaú Unibanco's Competitive Advantages In 2008, Itaú merged with Unibanco and therefore consolidated its leading position among private banks in Brazil. According to Interbrand, Itaú was the strongest brand in Brazil in 2021. A study conducted by Brand Finance also came to the same conclusion, with Itaú Unibanco being the only Brazilian company on their list of the 500 most valuable brands in the world. In comparison to 2020, the Brazilian bank gained 53 positions in the 2021 report and is currently the 335th most valuable brand in the world. In January 2022, Itaú Unibanco announced the purchase of 100% of the stocks of the digital investment broker Ideal Holding Financeira S.A. According to Itaú Unibanco, this investment strengthens the commitment to their customers of seeking transformative solutions in a market that is rapidly expanding. From my point of view, this acquisition is a further step forward for Itaú Unibanco on their path to digital transformation. The acquisition allows the company to further expand its digital offerings in order to be able to compete successfully against the digital banks and fintechs in Brazil. Additionally, Itaú Unibanco has just agreed today to acquire control of Avenue, which is a brokerage that aims to provide Brazilians with access to foreign markets. Itau Unibanco will acquire 35% of Avenue for the amount of about 493 million reais ($92 million). I see Itaú Unibanco's broad distribution network of 4,100 branches in combination with its enormous brand strength as a long-term competitive advantage over traditional banks such as Banco do Brasil or Bradesco, and digital banks like Nubank. Itaú Unibanco's revenue growth in 2021 compared to 2020 (the operating revenue of Itaú Unibanco increased from BRL 114.785 billion in 2020 to BRL 125.601 billion in 2021), demonstrates their stable and robust business model as well as the excellent market position the bank has within Brazil. Driven by the fast-growing customer base of its digital bank and taking into account Itaú Unibanco's strong competitive advantages and excellent market position in the Brazilian banking sector, I believe they will continue to grow in the coming years. Growth Opportunities through Itaú Unibanco's Digital Transformation and its Digital Bank Itaú Unibanco is continuously improving the services in its digital areas in order to be able to compete with the traditional banks and fintech companies. In 4Q21, 63% of all products purchased by Itaú Unibanco's customers were made digitally, according to the bank. Itaú Unibanco's digital bank offers its clients an account with no annual fees and in which they can carry out all their banking needs via the app. Throughout its digital bank, Itaú Unibanco aims to offer younger customers a less bureaucratic and more personalized banking experience. The company is also including cards that are free of annual fees in its product portfolio. As an example, it has removed the fee from its Ayrton Senna Platinum card. This is another way that Itaú Unibanco competes with the digital banks and fintechs by lowering fees in order to be more competitive. With open finance, which was introduced by the digital bank in the second quarter of 2021, clients were given the possibility of viewing their aggregate balance within the banking app. According to the bank, in the future it will be possible to consolidate the balance with other financial institutions. In 4Q21, the digital bank iti Itaú acquired 4.7 million new customers, 86% of which had no prior relationship with Itaú Unibanco. This high figure is a sign that the company is succeeding in attracting new customers rather than existing customers switching from Itaú Unibanco to its digital offering. At the end of 1Q22, Itaú Unibanco's digital bank already reached a total number of around 16.7 million customers. Data from a study conducted in January 2021, showed that about 16.3 million Brazilians do not currently have a bank account. The study also revealed that the majority of people without a bank account are women between the age of 18 and 29 years. Through its digital bank, Itaú Unibanco is aiming to approach this target group. The fact that such a large number of people in Brazil don't yet have a bank account indicates the growth potential which Brazilian banks, in general, still have. In my opinion, Itaú Unibanco is well positioned within the traditional banking sector due to its strong brand image and its broad customer base. Additionally, it is competitive in the digital banking and fintech sector due to its low fee offerings via their digital bank, targeted at a younger group. Based on these factors, I assume that the bank will continue its revenue growth in the future. Valuation Relative Valuation Models Itaú Unibanco's P/E ((FWD)) Ratio Itaú Unibanco's P/E Ratio is currently 7.1. Compared to their average P/E Ratio of the last 5 years (which is 11.34) this is 37.35% lower. This indicator suggests that the company is currently undervalued. When comparing Itaú Unibanco's P/E Ratio of 7.10 with the sector medium of 10.04, we can see another indicator suggesting that the company is currently undervalued. Itaú Unibanco's current P/E Ratio is 29.26% below the sector medium. Itaú Unibanco's Price / Book ((FWD)) Ratio The Price / Book Ratio of Itaú Unibanco is 1.34. This is 24.06% higher than the sector medium of 1.13. Comparing Itaú Unibanco's current Price / Book Ratio of 1.34 with its average Price / Book Ratio of the last 5 years, we can see that it's currently 35.81% lower, thus, indicating an undervaluation of the company's stock. Itaú Unibanco's Return on Common Equity ((TTM)) Itaú Unibanco's Return on Common Equity is currently 18.48%. When compared with the sector median of 12.46%, this demonstrates the enormous profitability of the bank in relation to stockholders' equity. Itaú Unibanco's Return on Common Equity is 48.29% higher than that of the sector median. Itaú Unibanco's higher Return on Common Equity in comparison to the sector median is an indicator that the company is operating with a greater financial efficiency than most of its competitors. This is another indicator that strengthens my buy rating of the Itaú Unibanco stock. Itaú Unibanco According to the Seeking Alpha Factor Grades The Seeking Alpha Factor Grades underline the attractiveness of Itaú Unibanco. The leading Brazilian bank is ranked with an A in terms of Growth, an A+ in terms of Profitability and with an A in terms of Revisions. For Valuation and Momentum, the bank gets a C+. Below you can see the overview of the Seeking Alpha Factor Grades: Source: Seeking Alpha Itaú Unibanco according to the Seeking Alpha Quant Rating According to the Seeking Alpha Quant Rating, Itaú Unibanco is currently a strong buy. This is yet another indicator showing the attractiveness of the company. Below you can see the rating of Itaú Unibanco according to the Seeking Alpha Quant Rating: Source: Seeking Alpha

Itau Unibanco Underappreciated On Its Leverage To Higher Rates And Strong Loan Demand

Itau beat expectations in Q4'21 and management guided to strong loan growth in '22 and very strong net interest income growth, but the market seems, at best, skeptical. I do see some macro risk to loan demand in Brazil in 2022 from higher costs (energy in particular) and weaker industrial output. Credit quality is not really an issue anymore and Itau's strong presence in credit cards and revolving lines of credit gives it strong leverage to higher rates. Even with a long-term earnings growth and ROE expectations below management and sell-side targets, Itau shares look 15% to 25% undervalued today.
