NAB Bull Says Divisions Performed Well in 1H -- Market Talk

May 04
0124 GMT - National Australia Bank's bull at UBS says 1H performance looks strong at a divisional level. Analyst John Storey flags the lender's business bank as a standout, pointing to a 10% rise in cash earnings from six months earlier. Storey tells clients in a note that NAB's cash earnings were slightly higher than he had anticipated, once one-off items are stripped out. He continues to think that the recent decline in NAB's stock, which has lost more than 20% if its value since the end of February, is overdone. UBS has a last-published buy rating and A$50.50 target price on the stock, which is down 2.4% at A$38.86. (stuart.condie@wsj.com)
