Deepika Gupta Padhi, Head of Investor Relations and Shweta Bansal, Assistant Manager, Investor Relations of PNB Housing Finance (PNBHF) and gleaned incremental insight into the strategy of the company. We share our detailed takeaways below. We revise our estimates for FY20/FY21 and retain Buy rating, revising our target price to Rs931 (from Rs1,140 earlier), valuing the stock at 1.5x FY21E (or 1.7x FY20E) P/BV. We think that the underperformance of PNBHF stock is overdone.
Post the strong disbursement CAGR of 55%+ over FY13-18, growth has moderated sharply to ~9% YoY in FY19. The liquidity crisis, coupled with increasing stress in corporate segment, warrants caution. With asset leverage already at 11x and a cautious outlook in the underlying business, disbursement growth is likely to remain moderate over the near-to-medium term. Reduction in the repayment rates is likely to support AUM growth (~15%). We factor in NIM compression of 20bp and a rise in credit cost by 5- 10bp. We cut our earnings estimates 3-6% for FY20/21. Maintain Buy with a TP of INR875 (1.5x FY21E).
Demand environment for NBFCs is on revamp now and we believe going forward PNBHFL lending will improve compare to FY19. It has strong liability franchise and maintaining excess liquidity to avoid volatility in overall cost of funds, while pressure will be seen on margins. At CMP of Rs 862 the stock is available at its FY 20E P/ABV of 1.7(x). We value the stock at a FY20E target P/ABV multiple of 2x, which yields a target price of Rs 998 per share. We have an ‘ACCUMULATE’ rating on the stock.
