Nov-14 Dec-14 Jan-15 Mar-15 Apr-15 May-15 Jul-15 Aug-15 Sep-15 Nov-15 India Research Banking November 09, 2015 QUARTERLY REVIEW Bloomberg: PNB IN Reuters: PNBK.BO SELL Asset quality improves but recovery a long way off PNB s results were below estimates as the earnings grew by 7.9% YoY (-13.8% QoQ) to Rs 6.2 bn led by weak NII growth (-6.3% YoY) and lower non- interest income. NIMs improved by 7 bps QoQ to 2.97%. The only silver lining in the result came in asset quality which improved marginally. GNPA and NNPA declined to 6.36% and 3.99% vs 6.47% and 4.05% respectively in. We have downgraded our advances growth estimate for FY16 and FY17. We maintain our Sell rating with a revised target price of Rs 127 (0.9x FY17E ABV). Weak NII growth: NII reported 4.1% YoY growth (5.4% QoQ) led by slower advances growth but NIMs improved marginally. NIM improved to 2.97% vs 2.9% in led by 20 bps QoQ growth in YoA to 9.76%. Advances growth remains weak: Advances grew by 6.7% YoY (flat QoQ) led by 3.8% and 3.1% sequential growth in corporate and retail advances. SME advances declined by 1.2% QoQ (flat YoY). We have downgraded advances growth estimate and expect advances to report a CAGR growth of 10.5% over FY15-17E. Asset quality improves marginally: Asset quality reported 2 nd quarter of marginal improvement as GNPA and NNPA declined to 6.36% and 3.99% vs 6.47% and 4.05% respectively. PCR also improved marginally to 61.4% vs 59.3% QoQ. Valuation & Outlook: Elevated GNPA & restructured book and lower return ratios continue to haunt the balance sheet of PNB. Though the restructuring pipeline is almost over, we expect incremental pressure from slippages from restructured book. We expect advances growth to remain weak in FY16 and expect asset quality issues will recede marginally. We expect the earnings of the bank to grow at 4.7% CAGR over FY15-17E led by 10.5% CAGR growth in advances. We maintain our Sell rating with a revised target price of Rs 127 (0.9x FY17E ABV).

Weak advances growth continues Advances growth continued to remain weak (6.7% YoY and flat QoQ). Retail advances grew by 23% YoY (3.1% QoQ) whereas corporate advances grew by 18.5% YoY (3.8% QoQ). SME advances declined by 1.2% QoQ (flat YoY) whereas overseas advances grew by 9.5% YoY (flat QoQ). We have downgraded advances growth estimate and expect advances to report a CAGR growth of 10.5% over FY15-17E. NIMs and CASA improve marginally Deposits growth was higher than advances growth at 14% YoY (4.3% QoQ) led by 14.4% YoY (2.7% QoQ) growth in term deposits. CASA ratio improved to 36% from 35.1% in the previous quarter. CA deposits grew by 15.4% QoQ (25% YoY) whereas SA deposits grew by 11% YoY (5.4% QoQ). NIM improved to 2.97% vs 2.9% in led by 20 bps QoQ growth in YoA to 9.76% whereas CoD remained stable at 5.95%. Weak non interest income Led by lower fee income growth (4.6% YoY and 16.9% QoQ decline) led to lower non-interest income whereas treasury income grew by 73.6% YoY and 33.1% QoQ. Cost to income ratio deteriorates Led by sharp QoQ increase employee expenses (21.2% QoQ), operating expenses increased by 15.7% QoQ (-3.3% YoY). Cost to income ratio deteriorated to 48% vs 43% in (49.6% in ). Bank has opened 41 branches during the year. Asset quality improves marginally In absolute basis, GNPA and NNPA declined by 1.8% and 1.3% QoQ. GNPA and NNPA declined to 6.36% and 3.99% vs 6.47% and 4.05% respectively. Fresh slippages were lower at Rs 26.1 bn. whereas the total restructured book stood at Rs 382 bn (10% of total advances). Though the bank has reported 2 nd quarter of marginal improvement in asset quality we expect the recovery to be slower and any meaningful improvement only in FY17. Outlook PNB reported a weak set of earnings in the core business though marginal improvement in asset quality was a silver lining. Elevated GNPA and restructured book and lower return ratios continue to haunt the balance sheet of the bank. We expect incremental pressure on slippages from restructured book to impact asset quality going ahead. We expect the earnings of the bank to grow at 4.7% CAGR over FY15-17E led by 10.5% CAGR growth in advances. We have downgraded our advances growth estimate for FY16 and FY17. We maintain our Sell rating with a revised target price of Rs 127 (0.9x FY17E ABV). 3
