Axis Bank: Muted quarter; Asset quality pressures drive cut in estimates

  • AXSB reported 1QFY20 PAT of INR13.7b (our estimate: INR16.5b), impacted by higher provisions. Other income grew 32% YoY to INR38.6b, led by treasury gains of INR8.3b and strong traction in retail fee (+28% YoY).
  • Fresh slippages increased to INR48b, while upgrade/recoveries (INR21.8b) and write-offs (INR30b) facilitated a 1% QoQ decline in GNPA. AXSB downgraded INR22.4b of stressed assets into the BB & below pool, resulting in a flattish trend in BB and below assets at INR75b. The bank disclosed total (fund + non-fund) exposure to eight stressed accounts of INR122b, of which INR51b is already part of BB & below or NPA.

AXSB has delivered a modest quarter in a challenging economic environment. However, core operating profitability is getting good, helping to mitigate some credit cost pressures. Improvement in RoA / RoE matrix will be a key to sustain the stock's performance.
