BSE: Subdued markets weigh upon earnings; Emergence of new revenue streams like MF platform is positive

(BSE IN, Mkt Cap USD0.6b, CMP INR822, TP INR950, 15% Upside, Buy)

 

  • 1QFY19 results below expectations: BSE’s 1QFY19 consol. revenue grew 8% YoY to INR1.19b, below our estimate of INR1.21b, led by (i) a 14% YoY decline in transaction charges because of depreciation in small and midcap equities and (ii) lower book-building charges due to lower new issues. EBITDA margin of 16.3% missed our estimate by 170bp due to the revenue miss; expenditure was in line with our estimate on an absolute basis. Although investment income was below expectations, adj. PAT was to the tune of the miss on EBITDA because of a lower ETR. PAT of INR473m declined by 5% YoY (est. of +7% YoY).
  • New segments continue building momentum: INX saw the highest number of trades in a day of 62,222 on 18th July 2018. Similarly, the performance in the MF platform has been encouraging. BSE has started to monetize the platform and booked revenue of INR52m from it this quarter. Total transaction value was up 14% YoY and the number of orders was higher by 152% YoY in 1QFY19. BSE is also on track to commence commodity trading starting 1st October on getting the necessary regulatory approvals.
