RBL BANK

CMP 500 TGT 690

  • Recent correction is an opportunity to accumulate quality stocks like RBL Bank.
  • RBI’s pause in hiking interest rates on pretext of benign inflation augurs well for upcoming banks like RBL.
  • RBL has been on a robust growth trajectory consistently maintaining growth in advances & profit in excess of 30%.
  • Healthy deposit to advances ratio was a key enabler in improving NIM to 4.04% in Q1FY19 up from 3.54% in Q1FY18.
  • Management has demonstrated consistent improvement in operational efficiency and cost to income ratio while embarking on a high growth trajectory through capturing quality business.
  • Sound asset quality which improved in Q1FY19 having GNPA at 1.40% (1.46% in Q1FY18) and net NPA at 0.75% (0.81% in Q1FY18). Going forward we expect RBL’s asset quality to remain firm.
  • Strong and improving financials amidst scenario of rising competition & higher cost of funds sets it apart from most of its peers. It reported ROA at 1.26% and ROE of 11.16% in Q1FY19 having provision coverage ratio of 60.41% (57.99% in Q1FY18) while registering decline in both Gross and Net NPA.
  • It has well diversified business mix and has been increasing geographical footprint steadily. Given, its present size and aggression of management it has long way to go before its high growth trajectory tapers off.
  • The book value has compounded in excess of 27% for last three years. In a rising cost of funds scenario and challenged macro environment this bank becomes a strong candidate for re-rating on back of its robust performance.
  • On a conservative basis, we expect 20% CAGR on book value for next couple of years, which for FY20e is likely to be Rs. 230, valuing it at 3.0x P/BV (FY20e) per shares target price comes at Rs. 691, leaving a scope of 39% upside from current levels.

Ujjivan Small Finance Bank IPO - Issue Details, Balance Sheet & Company Highlights

Ujjivan Small Finance Bank Cutting its teeth, turning around  Going public to fulfil regulatory requirements: Ujjivan Small Finance Bank (UJVNSFB) is floating its stock to meet the regulatory requirements of going public within three years of commencing business, which it completes in Jan’20. The bank has to reduce promoter (holding company Ujjivan Financial Services or UJJIVAN) shareholding to 40% within five years of commencing business. The IPO shall help UJVNSFB to dilute UJVN shareholding by ~17%. The bank will have to further reduce UJJIVAN shareholding by 44% by Jan’22, a steep task if RBI disallows the reverse merger alibi. How UJVNSFB negotiates this challenge remains to be seen. Multiple strategies to drive business growth: UJVNSFB is transitioning from its earlier avatar of a microfinance company into a small finance bank. In the initial three years of its existence, the bank has added multiple products to its portfolio and its current offerings range from microfinance to small business loans (refer Exhibit 6 on pp. 2). The bank’s strategy is to further diversify its product offerings within retail and MSE segments, which it has identified as key areas of growth. On technology front, the bank has moved from physical to assisted digital and is now on the cusp of launching its own API. With a strong physical infrastructure already in place with 552 banking outlets, UJVNSFB is well placed to drive growth. Some hits and misses on earnings: Although UJVNSFB’s NIMs are amongst the best in the peer set, its return ratios were affected due to steep credit cost post demonetisation. The bank has recovered out of the asset quality shock and has now the best coverage ratio on NPAs in the peerset. UJVNSFB’s H1FY20 reported net profit of Rs1.9bn is ~2x FY19 net profit Rs900mn driven both by stable credit costs but more importantly by robust core earnings. With calculated H1FY20 RoAs already at 2.8% (ann.), UJVNSFB appears to have turned around for the better.Valuation: Based on our proforma estimates, UJVNSFB IPO is priced at ~2.0x FY21E book value. We arrive at the FY21E BV by adding to the networth a) pre-IPO and IPO proceeds Rs10bn, b) annualising H1FY20 net profit for FY20E, c) and assuming a 25%YoY growth in profit in FY21E. On a post-money basis UJVNSFB implies a market capitalisation of Rs63bn. There is no comparative valuation for UJVNSFB given the varying return metrics and therefore the significantly broad range of valuation multiples for AUBANK and EQUITAS. Based on a baseline ROA assumption of 2% and CoE of 13.5%, UJVNSFBs fair value is placed in the Rs35-40 range. We therefore believe UJVNSFB will have to deliver significantly better RoAs for the stock to generate upside. For a comparison of return metrics, see Exhibit 4 on pp. 2. Our 25%YoY profit growth in FY21E implies 1.75% RoA.Key risks: UJVNSFB has disclosed in the RHP some of the red flags raised by RBI regarding risk management as well as product offerings. Such operational risks if not redressed could attract regulatory sanctions on business.
