REDUCE Muthoot Finance (MUTH) Diversified Financials AUGUST 19, 2020 RESULT, CHANGE IN RECO. Sector view: Attractive Overheated. Muthoot Finance reported marginal (1% qoq) loan book decline despite CMP (`): 1,256 sharp rally in gold prices, likely due to funding challenges. Even as we expect growth to Fair Value (`): 1,100 catch up over the next nine months, we find Muthoot’s valuations overheated post the BSE-30: 38,615 sharp stock rerating, following the rally in gold prices. Downgrade the stock to REDUCE from ADD with FV of Rs1,100. Improving funding and stabilizing Covid cases prompt us to look at other inexpensive NBFCs even as further rally in gold poses risk to our call. Muthoot Finance Stock data Forecasts/valuations 2020 2021E 2022E 52-week range (Rs) (high,low) 1,406-477 EPS (Rs) 75.0 76.8 87.1 Mcap (bn) (Rs/US$) 504/6.8 EPS growth (%) 52.3 2.4 13.5 ADTV-3M (mn) (Rs/US$) 4,098/55 P/E (X) 16.7 16.4 14.4 QUICK NUMBERS Shareholding pattern (%) P/B (X) 4.4 3.6 3.0 Promoters 73.4 BVPS (Rs) 288.5 347.4 414.1 PAT up 59% yoy; FIIs 14.6 RoE (%) 28.1 24.1 22.9 core PBT up 34% MFs/BFIs 6.1/0.6 Div. yield (%) 1.2 1.2 1.4 Price performance (%) 1M 3M 12M NII (Rs bn) 58 63 72 yoy Absolute 4 61 99 PPOP (Rs bn) 41 44 50 Rel. to BSE-30 0 26 93 Net profits (Rs bn) 30 31 35 Standalone AUM up 15% yoy/down 1% Muthoot: Gold price rally benefits in multiple ways qoq Muthoot has been a clear beneficiary of the sharp rally in gold prices that (1) potentially drives Gold tonnage higher loan growth, (2) provides comfort on underlying asset quality, in an environment of pledged with heightened risk for rest of the NBFC sector, and (3) boosts yields as a comfortable LTV enables it Muthoot Finance to recover penal and other charges as well. down 6% yoy/qoq Funding constrained growth in 1Q, 18% growth over next nine months We believe that the recent sharp rally in gold prices (34% since April) will provide further legs to growth over the next couple of months. Challenges on the funding side likely constrained the company in the first two months of 1QFY21, driving 1% qoq decline in the loan book. We continue to model 18% loan growth for the year with a catch-up over the next nine months. Funding access remains a crucial growth enabler (despite high gold prices); as the NBFC funding environment eases, we expect Muthoot to benefit as well. Muthoot has been a great outperformer, riding gold prices; downgrade to REDUCE We are downgrading Muthoot Finance to REDUCE, after 61%/99% rally in past 6/12 months. The sharp rally in gold prices, likely reflecting safe haven nature of the commodity, broadly corresponded with the rise in pandemic and has driven Muthoot’s stock. Early signs of rise in Nischint Chawathe Covid cases stabilizing coupled with rerating of Muthoot Finance prompt the downgrade. Muthoot’s business tends to be highly cyclical with linkages to the gold cycle and it would be M B Mahesh, CFA inaccurate to juxtapose current strong return ratios to arrive at long-term valuation multiples. Notably, Muthoot reported average RoA of 2.6-6.8% during the recent cycle, i.e. 2014-20 (peak Dipanjan Ghosh of 6.8% in FY2020) and RoE of 14-28% (peak of 28% in FY2020); the stock currently trades at 3X book FY2022E. At our RGM-based FV of Rs1,100 (from Rs1,025), the stock will trade at Abhijeet Sakhare 2.5X book June 2022E. In the current environment, we prefer inexpensively valued vehicle finance NBFCs (Cholamandalam, Shriram Transport Finance and SCUF) over Muthoot Finance. Ashlesh Sonje We are raising our estimates by 2-11%. We expect Muthoot Finance to deliver 16% loan book CAGR during FY2021-23E, driving 15% EPS CAGR during the period. Near-term RoE will likely remain high at 22-24%. It remains challenging to take a call on gold prices; continuous rise in gold prices will likely drive further rerating of Muthoot and poses risk to our stock call.
