JAKARTA, Indonesia, June 13, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- PT. Bank Rakyat Indonesia (Persero) Tbk (IDX: BBRI) directors have been actively buying BBRI shares, according to information disclosed to the Indonesia Stock Exchange (BEI) on June 12.

Despite a 23% year-to-date decline in BBRI stocks, the company continues to show strong growth. RHB Securities analysts Andrey Wijaya and David Chong, in their June 11, 2024, research, suggest a potential price increase, noting that the risks are already factored in.

BRI's financial report shows it led Big Cap banks with the fastest profit growth during the first four months of 2024, up 4.5% year-on-year. This increase, driven by robust loan growth and an effective cost of credit (CoC), included a 12% year-on-year loan increase in April. Analysts Andrey and David emphasized BBRI's sector-leading performance, "CoC for 4M24 dropped to 3.7% (3M24; 3.8%), with expectations to drop below 3% for the entire year. CASA and LDR ratios remain stable," they detailed in their research.

The 4.5% profit growth for the first four months of 2024 also met analysts' expectations, equivalent to 28% of the forecast for the year. Based on such promising potential, RHB Securities maintains and affirms a Buy recommendation for BBRI stocks with a target price of Rp6,300 per share, predicting a 40% potential increase, aligned with excellent performance.

Also, 33 analysts unanimously recommend buying BBRI stocks based on Bloomberg consensus. Not a single analyst recommends selling. All of them firmly gave a Buy rating. The Bloomberg consensus yields a potential target price of Rp6,105 per share for the upcoming 12 months.

Recently, Jayden Vantarakis, an analyst at Macquarie, gave a buy recommendation with a target price of Rp6,630 per share. Moreover, Erni M. Siahaan, an analyst at Ciptadana Securities, also gave a buy recommendation with a target price of Rp7,000 per share.
