While core fee income grew by a strong 40% yoy, NIM (calc.) contracted 8bps qoq. In FY19E, we expect (i) DCBB to maintain healthy loan growth of ~24% yoy as it gains incremental business from SOE banks, (ii) NIMs to moderate further, in line with the trend seen in 2HFY18 (FY19E/FY20E calc. NIM at 3.7%/3.6%), (iii) fee income to be marginally ahead of assets growth driven by higher cross-selling and (iv) stable asset quality given a granular loan book. We raise our FY19E/FY20E PAT by 6%/8% as we upgrade our fee estimates. Retain ADD with an ERoE-based Mar’19 TP of Rs 205 (Rs 196 earlier) set at a 2.2x Mar’19 ABV of Rs 92. Core fee income growth robust, pricing pressure hurts NIM: Non-interest income jumped 34% yoy driven by bancassurance, fx products for retail, SME/retail trade products, and sale of PSL certificates. NII grew ~20% yoy to Rs 2.64bn. Pricing pressure pulled down NIMs by ~31bps in 4QFY18 vs. 2QFY18; we expect NIMs to moderate further in FY19E as competition intensifies from SFBs and NBFCs. Opex increased by 23% yoy in 4QFY18(FY18: 24%). However, with management guidance on the pace of branch addition moderating to ~15/year in both FY19E/FY20E, we expect the C/I ratio to improve to 57.6%/55.5%. We build in a ~18bps/9bps contraction in FY19E/FY20E NIMs and a 25%/22% growth in fee income. Advances up ~29% yoy, cross Rs 200bn: DCBB’s loan growth was driven by CV/ corporate banking segments while the share of mortgages declined to 40% vs. 42% in 3QFY18 as the foreclosure rate was ~30-40% higher than last year. ~70% of current advances with ticket sizes below Rs 30mn and management guides to keep the loan book mix remaining broadly similar with a sustained focus on granular loans. Deposits were up 24.5% yoy with the CASA ratio declining 134bps qoq to 24.3%. We build in FY19E/FY20E loan growth of 24%/24%, but feel DCBB would need to raise capital in FY20E to support growth. GNPL/NNPL ratios improve to 1.8%/0.7%: Overall, fresh slippages moderated to 1.7% vs. 2.3% qoq. NPAs in gold loans/mortgages inched up to 2.6%/1.7% vs. 1.9%/1.6% in 3Q. GNPA ratios moderated by more than 20bps qoq in the corporate (2.4%), SME (1.3%), CV (2.5%) and AIB (1.7%) segments. One NPA restructured loan worth Rs 90mn was upgraded to standard restructured. Upgrades and recoveries were healthy at Rs 667mn (Rs 669mn of total reduction in NPAs). We expect asset quality to remain robust and considerably better that the systemic average. Risks: (1) A sharp increase in slippages, (2) other FIs offering unsecured loans and top-up loans, leading to higher competition, and (3) a slowdown in the growth rate of mortgage loans.

Earnings call takeaways

Business Update

Key drivers of growth in fee income: Bancassurance, fx products for retail,

SME/retail trade products, sales of PSL certificates.

So far, the bank has trained more than 1,000 employees who are now certified for

cross-selling various insurance/MF products.

DCBB has not purchased any loan portfolio during FY18. Adjusting for rundown in

earlier buyout pools, organic loan growth is ~30-31%.

Management is not looking to grow corporate banking aggressively, with the segment

likely to constitute ~15-20% of its overall loan book.

While the focus would remain on mortgages, recent changes in mortgage credit

underwriting are leading to slower growth in the segment.

DCBB is offering 2W/car loans only to existing customers, with no dedicated staff to

market these products.

The foreclosure rate of mortgage loans has gone up by 30-40% vis-à-vis last year.

On retail term deposits, DCBB is seeing good traction in Suraksha FDs which offers

free life insurance cover up to the deposit amount with a cap of Rs 5mn.

Asset Quality

One NPA restructured LRD account worth Rs 90mn was upgraded to standard

restructured as the borrower had been regular on paying two loans. A delay in one of

the loans was due to cancellation of a lease agreement.

Increase in CV NPAs is due to the impact of GST and industry-specific issues.

Strong controls are in place for gold loans. Management is confident of no

frauds/operational losses in gold loans.

Guidances

FY19 exit quarter targets were retained with a C/I ratio of 55% and RoAs/RoEs of

1%/14%.

Long-term RoE target is at 17-18%.

Management remained cautious on NIMs and retained its FY19 guidance at ~3.75%.

DCBB plans to expand its branch network by ~15-20 in FY19/FY20 each.

Data Points

The ticket sizes for 70%+ of loans are below Rs 30mn.

Split of HL: LAP in mortgage is 70%:30%. Typically, HL borrowers take a top-up loan

in 2-3 years, thereby converting a HL into LAP.

~70-80% of CV loans are PSL-compliant. Within CVs, ~20% loans are refinanced.

O/S SRs: Rs 620mn.

Employee count: 5,790.

The bank did not amortize any MTM losses/provisions during the quarter.

Avg. opex/branch is Rs 6mn.

DCBB recorded Rs 20mn one-off expenses in the tax line.

Management expects to maintain the C/D ratio between 80-86%.

(4) While there could be a marginal uptick in slippages, overall losses to be contained

owing to good quality of underlying collaterals.

Lite vs. Regular Coverage vs. Spot Coverage We aim to keep our rating and estimates updated at least once a quarter for Regular Coverage stocks. Generally, we would have access to the company and we would maintain detailed financial model for Regular coverage companies. We intend to publish updates on Lite coverage stocks only an opportunistic basis and subject to our ability to contact the management. Our rating and estimates for Lite coverage stocks may not be current. Spot coverage is meant for one-off coverage of a specific company and in such cases, earnings forecast and target price are optional. Spot coverage is meant to stimulate discussion rather than provide a research opinion.
