SBI Cards and Payment Services - BUY - TP Rs. 1260 - YES SECURITIES
Posted On : 2022-06-11 13:18:47( TIMEZONE : IST )
We hosted SBI Cards' Management in our High Conviction Ideas Conference and the takeaways were reassuring on concurrent and expected trends in card addition/mix, spend growth/mix, revolvers' share, competitive landscape and credit cost. Co. is confident about maintaining the card sourcing run-rate demonstrated in past two quarters while would not chase market share at the cost of risk or profitability. Higher acquisitions from Tier-3 & beyond locations and of self-employed customers is mainly through SBI channel. This would drive Revolvers' share recovery along with the consistent increase of discretionary spends. Less-risky customers onboarded during FY21-22 and portfolio construct/ECL coverage being at pre-pandemic level offers visibility on prompt normalization of credit cost. Cost/income ratio is expected to remain at 56-57% in the near term, with scale and digital benefits mitigating increased intensity of spend-related cost.
We estimate 20-22% CAGR in CIF and Receivables over FY22-24. Despite modelling 25 bps MDR reduction (partial recoup through opex), we estimate RoA/RoE to be 5.5-6%/24-26% which was the pre-pandemic metric (adjusted for capital base). We believe that stock price represents overstretched concerns on a) MDR reduction and lack of flexibility to recoup it, b) structural pressure on cost-income/profitability from increased competitive intensity, c) impact on growth from rising scale of the new-age card cos. and BNPL. Being the only listed pure-play credit card issuer with significantly higher profitability than Banks and NBFCs (in good times as well as bad times), SBI Cards would continue to command a premium valuation. Reiterate BUY with 12m PT of Rs1260.
