Research Analyst – Kajal Gandhi Valuation & Outlook [email protected] Leaving FY21E behind, front-loading provisions for asset quality stress, Bajaj Vishal Narnolia Finance management has guided for strong improvement of 25-27% growth [email protected] in AUM and credit cost at 160-180 bps from FY22E. Tight control on cost and focus on improving collection bodes well in a changed environment. Yash Batra [email protected] Securities ICICI Demand for protection & guaranteed products is seen driving life insurance premium and VNB margins ahead. Higher acceptance of health insurance bodes well for premium accretion ahead, though claims are seen to be gradually increasing as normalcy resumes. With plans to enter into asset management, license for AMC has been applied. Given anticipation of healthy growth in earnings at ~19% CAGR in FY21-Y22E and prevailing steep holdco discount, we upgrade our target to | 7000/share (earlier | 6400) based on SOTP valuation, implying a multiple of ~23x on FY22E consolidated earnings. Hence, we upgrade the stock from HOLD to BUY. s Key Financial Summary | crore F Y18 F Y19 F Y20 F Y21E F Y22E C AG R (F Y19-22E ) R evenue 32,456.8 42,608.2 54,351.5 56,371.0 59,387.4 12% PBT 6,105.5 8,069.5 8,300.2 8,206.7 10,425.9 9% PAT 2657.0 3133.5 3367.7 3967.4 4780.3 15% E P S (|) 167.0 198.1 269.7 249.3 300.4 BV (|) 1302.1 1498.5 2026.3 2273.9 2572.6 P /E 35.6 30.0 22.1 23.9 19.8 P /BV 4.6 4.0 2.9 2.6 2.3 R oA 1.9 1.8 1.9 1.4 1.3 R oE 14.5 14.1 15.3 11.6 12.4 S Source: Company, ICICI Direct Research Result Update | Bajaj Finserv ICICI Direct Research Exhibit 1: Variance Analysis Q2FY21 Q2FY21E Q2FY20 YoY (%) Q1FY21 QoQ (%) Comments Lower traction in motor insurance kept premium accretion General Insurance 4155.6 5220.7 4,279.3 -2.9 2,289.1 81.5 muted New business premium growth came in at 11% YoY led Life Insurance 2677.1 2638.0 2,235.6 19.7 1,700 57.5 by traction in individual rated business Net premium earned 6832.7 7858.8 6,514.9 4.9 3,988.8 71.3 Investment and other 2592.7 2045.2 2,220 16.8 3,667 -29.3 income Reinsurance Ceded 420.5 471.5 262 60.4 294 42.9 Reserve for unexpired 478.8 200.0 568 -15.6 -280 -271.0 risk Total Insurance 8526.2 9232.5 7,904.9 7.9 7,641.3 11.6 Retail financing 6523.3 7038.0 6,323 3.2 6,650 -1.9 AUM growth flattish at 1% YoY Windmill 9.9 11.7 12.3 -20.0 7.8 26.2 Investment and 47.6 200.0 410 -88.4 42 14.4 others Total 15051.6 16130.3 14,224 5.8 14,192 6.1 Interest and Finance 2340.2 664.6 2,313.2 1.2 2,395.2 -2.3 Charges Other Exp 10554.8 13099.4 9,284.6 13.7 9,228.7 14.4 Provision of | 1370 crore related to Covid Total Expenses 12895.0 13764.1 11,597.9 11.2 11,623.9 10.9 PBT 2156.6 2366.2 2,626.4 -17.9 2,568.1 -16.0 Impact of elevated provision offset by cost control and PAT 986.3 1093.2 1,203.7 -18.1 1,215.2 -18.8 lower claims Source: Company, ICICI Direct Research Exhibit 2: Change in estimates F Y21E F Y22E (| Crore) O ld New % C hang e O ld New % C hang e Total Income 52,783.4 56,371.0 6.8 60099.8 59,387.4 -1.2 PBT 9,239.4 8,206.7 -11.2 10,987.8 10,425.9 -5.1 PAT 4,129.2 3,967.4 -3.9 4,932.2 4,780.3 -3.1 ABV (|) 2,291.7 2,273.9 -0.8 2,599.9 2,572.6 -1.0 Source: Company, ICICI Direct Research Exhibit 3: Assumption C urrent E arlier F Y19 F Y20 F Y21E F Y22E F Y21E F Y22E C ommercial Finance growth (% ) 37.9 37.1 1.7 22.2 1.7 22.2 Life Ins Premium growth (% ) 16.9 10.1 2.4 10.1 1.5 5.9 General Ins GWP growth (% ) 17.0 15.6 3.0 15.0 8.0 20.0 Source: Company, ICICI Direct Research ICICI Securities | Retail Research 2 Result Update | Bajaj Finserv ICICI Direct Research Valuation and Outlook Leaving FY21E behind, front-loading provisions for asset quality stress, the Bajaj Finance management has guided for strong improvement of 25-27% growth in AUM and credit cost at 160-180 bps from FY22E.
