Q3FY20 result highlights
Valuation and view:
While slippage and additions to BB were higher qoq, ICICI’s earnings were stronger than other banks on slippage, NIMs, fees, PCR and gross additions to BB. With management’s guidance of higher credit cost for 4Q we cut our earnings. We believe ICICI Bank is best positioned to normalize credit cost and earnings faster than other corporate banks. We forecast RoE of 15% in FY21. We reiterate our Outperformer rating on ICICI Bank. Acceleration in earnings, strong CAR and a high PCR will drive the stock’s re-rating. Management has clarified that there is no plan to raise equity. With consistent improvement in operating metrics over the last few quarters in a tough macro, we revise our target multiple on the core bank to 2.5x FY21E and our TP to Rs600.
