Citigroup May Not Report Profit Until Late 2009, Goldman Says

By Jeff Kearns

Oct. 21 (Bloomberg) -- Citigroup Inc., the second-largest U.S. bank, may not be able to report a profit until the second half of 2009 because of worsening credit conditions, said Goldman Sachs Group Inc., which reinstated the shares at ``sell.''

``It will be difficult for Citi to generate profitability over the next 12 months as additional write-downs, lower levels of capital markets activity, and further deterioration in credit quality trends will continue to weigh on the firm's operating results and capital ratios,'' analyst William Tanona wrote.

Citigroup slipped 3.6 percent to $14.55 at 8:23 a.m. in New York. Before today, the shares had lost 49 percent this year.

The analyst added Citigroup to Goldman's ``Americas Conviction Sell List.''

UPDATE 1-Goldman Sachs recommends "sell" on Citigroup

Oct 21 (Reuters) - Goldman Sachs reinstated Citigroup Inc (C.N: Quote, Profile, Research, Stock Buzz) with a "sell" rating and recommended a "paired" trade in which investors sell Citigroup short, betting on a decline, and buy Morgan Stanley (MS.N: Quote, Profile, Research, Stock Buzz) shares.

Shares of Citigroup, the giant U.S. bank, fell 4 percent to $14.45 in trading before the bell.

"We believe weak economic data will keep the stock under pressure over the next six months and it is tough to see why the stock would head higher over this period," analyst William Tanona said in a note to clients.

Adding Citigroup to Americas Conviction Sell list, Tanona said it will be difficult for the company to generate profitability over the next 12 months primarily due to additional write-downs and deteriorating credit market.

Tanona has a six month price target of $11 on Citigroup.

On Morgan Stanley, the analyst said the company has very limited exposure to consumer credit, which is an area the brokerage believes will provide the most significant headwinds for Citigroup in 2009.

Morgan Stanley will generate profits over the next four quarters, thus adding to its capital base, whereas Citigroup will lose money, thus reducing its capital base, Tanona added. (Reporting by Sweta Singh in Bangalore, Editing by Dinesh Nair)
