SPREAD DEVELOPMENT

February/March 2018 Spread Development

Source: JSE, Bloomberg, Nedbank CIB

Standard Bank Group’s Tier 2 bond (SBT201) spread of 314bps cleared at the top-end of price guidance (295-315bps). We think this follows from the last price point, which was FirstRand’s R2,75bn issue at 315bps in September 2017. We note that these bonds were issued in different market windows. The FirstRand note was issued prior to the 2017 MTBPS, while the Standard Bank note was issued just before the National Budget Speech 2018.

Nedbank set a new price point for its Tier 2 notes, with its spread clearing towards the lower-end of price guidance (275-350bps) at 305bps. Both Standard Bank and Nedbank issued at the Holdco-level. Investors seem comfortable with the structural subordination (given the strong bid appetite), but perhaps the high demand for these assets is keeping the spread differential between the Opco and Holdco sub-debt issuances at nil. The trajectory for sub-debt is for further spread tightening, if the issuance window is timed correctly, with perhaps a psychological barrier at J+300bps for Tier 2 notes.

Netcare’s NTC22 and NTC23 auction finished 5bps below the previous clearing levels of similar bonds issued in mid-2017 (NTC20, 3yr, J+160 ; NTC21, 5yr, J+180).

Guaranteed Senior Unsecured Hybrid/Junior Subordinated/Prefs. Lower Tier II Subordinated Senior Secured

Senior Unsecured Senior Unsecured (IFS) Senior Unsecured/RCF Subordinated

Tier II Subordinated Tier II Subordinated (deferrable) Tier II Subordinated (non-deferrable) Upper Tier II Subordinated

We expect S&P to complete its recalibration of its South African national scale in the next couple of months. Initial indications are that the impact will be limited, and would likely result in marginal upgrades, particularly around the current “AA-” band of ratings.

Our expectation is that Moody’s will affirm the Sovereign’s ratings at the “Baa3” level, but revise the outlook to “Negative” from “Watch Neg”. This should mean that many of the ratings that are either linked to the sovereign or are capped by the sovereign will also go through outlook changes. If the outcome is a downgrade, then we expect a recalibration of the national scale, with some national scale rating transitions (although relative rankings between credits would be preserved, despite the new level of the rating symbols).
