Valuation and view
We reiterate our Underperformer on YES as we see the forthcoming divergence report and low capital as big risks. YES Bank has appointed Ravneet Gill, ex CEO of Deutsche Bank India, as its new CEO. However, even with a reputed new CEO, loan book clean up and consequent earnings recovery will be long-drawn. We believe the new CEO will have to focus on cleaning up divergence which could result in high credit cost and slower loan and fee growth. Also, revival in savings deposits is a key monitorable because funding CASA through current accounts may not be possible every quarter. Till there is visibility on earnings and business strategy raising capital will be difficult. We cut earnings and marginally cut TP to Rs170. We highlight downside risks to earnings if divergence is higher than earlier indications of Rs15-20bn.
