Profit grew 15.1% YoY to 18 crore below our estimate of 117.6 crore owing to higher-than-expected provisions of 49.9 crore vs. 42 crore estimated NII growth was healthy and above estimates at 16% YoY to 24 crore (I-direct estimate: 232.7 crore) led by higher-than-expected credit growth at 12.1% YoY (4.94% QoQ) to 18785 crore and strong margins of 3.74% Other income was muted as it declined 1% QoQ (up 4.8% YoY) to 95 crore owing to a weak recovery in income Asset quality saw pressure with GNPA ratio at 2.1% vs. 2% in Q1FY16 ( 398 crore vs. 359 crore QoQ). The absolute increase in GNPA QoQ was the highest in last several quarters. Slippages were at 97.6 crore (2.2% of loans). Full year slippages wee guided in the range of 2-2.25% in FY16E and below 2% in FY17E Strong regional bank; expect 13% CAGR in loans City Union Bank is the oldest bank in the old private sector bank category with 1+ years of existence with continuous profitability and dividend pay out. It is largely a south India oriented bank with a network of 486 branches of which 434 are in South India and 33 in Tamil Nadu alone. CUB s business traction at 29% CAGR over FY6-13 has been higher than industry except in FY14-15 wherein business growth fell to 8.6% at 17965 crore, focussing on quality rather than growth. We expect business growth of 13.4% CAGR over FY15-17E to 5448 crore. NIM above 3%+ for over decade; expect healthy levels to sustain ahead One of the commendable features of CUB is that it has been able to maintain NIMs of 3%+ for over a decade across economic cycles despite a low CASA base (~19% of total deposits). This is owing to the structure of its loan book, which is focused on the SME/MSME segment (~45% of loans) that is high yielding and wherein re-pricing is possible. Further, ~8% of the book is on a floating basis, which reduces interest rate risk. We expect calculated NIM to stay healthy at >3% levels over FY15-17E. Asset quality expected to remain prudent CUB s lending philosophy of giving small ticket secured loans helps control asset quality. Around 1:1 loan to collateral ratio was maintained. Unsecured loans are only 1% of loans. The bank did not go overboard on growth in the peak years of 27-8 and maintained its 25-3% credit growth. It improved its NNPA from 7-8% in the FY crisis to <1.% in FY1 and maintained it despite banking system NPAs surging in both FY12 and FY13. With anticipation of a revival in economy, we expect NPA to stabilise and expect GNPA and NNPA ratios at 2.2% and 1.3% to 514 crore and 291 crore, respectively, by FY17E. Operational performance holding up well vs. peers; maintain BUY We have lowered our PAT CAGR to 13% over FY15-17E to 486 crore vs. 17% CAGR estimated earlier as we factor in lower credit traction and rise in slippages & credit cost. Accordingly, our RoE estimates have reduced to 15% from 16% earlier. However, despite this, we prefer CUB as it is well placed among regional players and comfortable on capital adequacy front with tier I ratio at 15%. We believe CUB is capable of sustaining its RoA at ~1.5%. CUB has historically traded at a slight premium to other regional banks owing to better return ratios. We maintain our BUY rating and target multiple of 2x FY17E ABV but reduce target price to 15 (earlier 114) owing to reduction in the FY17E ABV to 53 from 55.6.

Company Analysis Regional bank with focus on SME segment; expect 13% CAGR in loans CUB is a south India based small sized bank with a legacy of over 1 years. Based out of Tamil Nadu, it has a network of 486 branches with 434 branches concentrated in southern India and 33 branches in Tamil Nadu alone. CUB has a history of 1 years of profits and dividend payouts. One of its distinguishing features is its focus on its target segment of SME/MSME in southern India, which accounts for ~45% of CUB s advances book. The bank capitalises on knowledge of its niche market of small businesses, SME and traders primarily based in south India. Going ahead, the bank maintains that its focus would continue to be the SME/MSME segment. Going ahead, we expect advances growth of 13% CAGR over FY15-17E to 22911 crore CUB s credit grew above industry at 29% CAGR to 15246 crore between FY6 and FY13. However, owing to a weak economic scenario, the bank scaled down its advances traction at 8.6% YoY CAGR to 17965 crore over FY14-15. Going ahead, we expect advances growth of 13% CAGR in FY15-17E to 22911 crore with MSME and retail remaining the thrust areas. Any major improvement in the economic scenario could result in higher-than-expected traction in loans than factored in by us.

CUB s deposits have also tracked credit growth. It registered a healthy CAGR of 28% over FY6-13 to 235 crore. Like credit, deposit growth also slowed in FY14 at 8.4% and 9.3% in FY15 to 2475 crore.

CASA ratio is estimated to gradually move up at ~19.6% by FY17E to 688 crore We expect margins to stay at healthy levels of > 3% over FY15-17E CUB s deposits are largely retail in nature with nil bulk deposits. CASA ratio at ~19.5% is on the lower side. Going ahead, we expect deposit to track credit traction and grow at 13.7% CAGR in FY15-17E to 31137 crore. CASA ratio is estimated to gradually move up at ~19.6% by FY17E to 688 crore. Structure of loan book aids NIMs; expect to stay at healthy levels CUB has historically maintained a higher NIM of above 3%. In FY14, reported margins were at 3.5%. This is commendable considering that its CASA ratio has been below 2% at 18%. As discussed above, given its positioning as an SME/MSME (~45% of loans) focused bank catering to their specific requirements, higher churn and yields due to greater proportion of short-term loans (working capital loans at ~64%), extensive knowledge about its market dynamics and a floating loan book size of approximately 8%, the bank has been able to manage its yields on advances across business cycles, thus maintaining the spread. The bank has enjoyed high yields of over 12% since FY8. Moreover, the deposit base consists mainly of retail term deposits, which have a higher maturity. This reduces the bank s dependence on high cost bulk deposits, which currently is nil. However, owing to declining interest rate scenario we expect some pressure on margins. However, it is expected to stay at healthy levels of >3% over FY15-17E.

Asset quality expected to remain prudent CUB has largely maintained its asset quality well over a long time. The GNPA and NNPA ratios declined to 1.1% and.6% as on FY13 from 4.43% and 1.95%, respectively, in FY6. CUB s lending philosophy of giving small ticket secured loans helps control asset quality. Around 1:1 loan to collateral ratio is maintained. Unsecured advances aggregate to only 1% of loans. The bank did not go overboard on growth in the peak years of 27-8 and maintained its 25-3% credit growth. We expect GNPA and NNPA ratios at 2.2% and 1.3%, respectively, by FY17E. RA is also one of the lowest in the industry at 1.3% ( 246 crore) as on Q2FY16. However, during FY14, owing to a weak economy, CUB witnessed asset quality pressures with fresh slippages rising to 456 crore from 223 crore in FY13. During FY14, absolute GNPA and NNPA increased to 293 crore (GNPA ratio at 1.8%) and 197 crore (NNPA ratio at 1.2%), respectively. Further, PCR fell to 62% from 7% levels earlier. In FY15, slippages came in higher than trajectory prior to FY14. However, it remained lower compared to last year at 425 crore along with higher reduction at 382 crore in FY15 vs. 336 crore in FY14. Consequently, GNPA and NNPA increased to 336 crore and 233 crore, respectively. Despite deterioration, we believe CUB s asset quality remains manageable compared to its peers. Lower exposure to stressed segments like the infra segment at ~1% also provides comfort. The management has guided slippages will remain between 2% & 2.25% in FY16E and fall below 2% in FY17E. Accordingly, we have revised our NPA estimates upwards and now expect GNPA and NNPA ratios at 2.2% and 1.3% to 514 crore and 291 crore, respectively, by FY17E.

Exhibit 7: Superior operational efficiency in past; expect to stabilise near 4-43% in FY15-17E CUB s cost-to-income ratio (C/I ratio) has largely stayed near 4%, which is been better than its peers wherein the C/I ratio was ~45%.

Outlook and valuation We have lowered our PAT CAGR to 13% over FY15-17E to 486 crore vs. 17% CAGR estimated earlier as we factor in lower credit traction and rise in slippages & credit cost. Accordingly, we have reduced our RoE estimates to 15% from 16% earlier. However, despite this, we prefer CUB as it is well placed among regional players. It is comfortable on the capital adequacy front with tier I ratio at 15%. We believe CUB is capable of sustaining its RoA at ~1.5%. CUB has historically traded at a slight premium to other regional banks owing to better return ratios. We maintain our BUY rating and target multiple of 2x FY17E ABV but reduce the target price to 15 (earlier 114) owing to reduction in the FY17E ABV to 53 from 55.6.
