ICICIdirect.com | Equity Research Page 2 South Indian Bank (SOUIN0) Investment Rationale SIB is shifting its focus from a regional bank to a bank with a pan-India presence. The branch concentration in the south zone provided the bank ~35% of low cost deposits. This helped to control the interest cost and maintain NIM of 3%. The total business of the bank grew at 22% CAGR over FY05-09 to Rs 30,237 crore. We expect it to grow at 22% CAGR over SIB is aiming for a pan-India presence FY09-12E to Rs 54,845 crore. The C/D ratio of the bank improved from 51% in FY04 to 72% for Q3FY10. We expect it to stabilise around 70% by FY12E. The GNPA improved from 6.6% in FY05 to 1.5% in Q3FY10. We expect a GNPA of 1.6% and NNPA of 0.8% in FY12E. Total business to grow at 18% CAGR over FY09-12E SIB’s total business grew at 22% CAGR over FY05-09 to Rs 30,237 crore. Total business growth of 18% CAGR will support Going forward, we expect 24% and 21% CAGR in advances and deposits 21% growth in the balance sheet size over FY09-12E to Rs 22578 crore and Rs 32267 crore, respectively. This will result in a 22% CAGR in business mix over the same period. The credit growth in the industry was dismal at around 9.9% during October 2009. It has started to pick up from early January. However, the pace of deposit growth was steady at around 20%. According to latest RBI data, bank credit grew at 15.8% showing early signs of a strong pick- up in industry credit. We expect industry loan growth of 21% and 20%, for FY11E and FY12E, respectively, while we expect deposit growth of 20% and 18%, respectively. We feel that SIB should grow ahead of the industry because of the small base and strategic expansion plans laid by the bank along with comfortable capital adequacy ratio (CAR) of 17.4% (Tier I CAR- 14%) for Q3FY10.
