POWF & RECL: risk-reward remains favourable
n POWF & RECL: stock outperformance set to continue as risk-reward still seems favourable
POWF and RECL are up 40% on average over the past six months vs 13% for the BSE Sensex (ie
27% outperformance). This has been mainly due to currently-depressed valuations, sustained
earnings growth, attractive dividend yields and key government initiatives for the power sector, in our
view. Despite the recent uptick, our ‘what if’ analysis suggests more upside in both names.
n Several variables still in favour of POWF and RECL
We expect several variables to continue working in favour of POWF and RECL: 1) government
reforms in the power sector, the effects of which should be visible over the next two to three years; 2)
a favourable risk-reward scenario as highlighted by our ‘what if’ analysis; 3) the recent stabilization in
money/FX markets, which should help to address concerns on unhedged forex exposures; and 4)
currently-depressed valuations with attractive potential dividend yields of more than 5% in FY15E.
n Increasing earnings estimates and TPs to factor in improved power sector fundamentals
We increase our residual-income-based target prices for POWF and RECL by 17% and 15%. This
reflects increased EPS estimates to factor in stable NIMs and reduced credit costs on the back of the
government’s positive measures to alleviate stress in the power sector. We increase our EPS
estimates for POWF by 12% in FY14 and 9% in FY15, and for RECL by 20% in FY14 and 26% in
FY15. Key risks to our TPs and estimates are insufficient fuel supply, SEB losses on account of higher
T&D losses and no further tariff hikes, which can de-rail the balance sheet repair for SEBs.

Investment thesis
In the past few months, there has been a positive momentum
on the power sector policy front. The government has moved
swiftly to clear fuel supply issues for power producers,
awarded environmental clearances for power plants and fuel
supplier Coal India.
From a lender’s perspective, all these initiatives should
accrue benefits over the next two to three years. In the near
term, we believe these positive steps have ensured reduced
tail risk for lenders, as the probability of asset quality shock
has gone down substantially.
And over the next two to three years, as fundamentals of the
power sector improve, we can expect an improvement in
loan growth for POWF and RECL.
To factor in these positive developments, we increase our
earnings estimates and target price for POWF and RECL.
For POWF, the increase in TP is about 17%, and for RECL it
is about 15%.
Catalysts
No disruption in fuel supply, especially coal supply from Coal
India.
Further tariff hikes, which would lead to an improvement in
the financials of state electricity boards.
A pick up in loan growth, as environment clearances and fuel
linkages are awarded to power plants.
Risks
Coal India (COAL IN) fails to meet its production targets.
No further tariff hike by state electricity boards, which can
again deteriorate the fundamentals of producers.

Expect outperformance to continue
Power Finance and RECL have provided a return of 60% and 24%, respectively, in
the past six months, as compared with the broader index (up 13%) and BANKEX (up
31%). The primarily rationale for the outperformance appears to be depressed
valuations, attractive dividend yields, sustained earnings growth and positive steps
taken by the Government of India with regards to the power sector.
The outperformance of POWF and RECL is broadly in line with our thesis and we
believe this outperformance will continue on account of: 1) government reforms in
the power sector, the effects of which should be visible over the next two to three
years; 2) our scenario analysis (detailed later in this report) suggesting a best-case
upside for POWF/RECL of about 35% from current levels; 3) recent stabilization in
FX markets, which should help to address concerns on unhedged forex exposures;
and 4) POWF and RECL trading below their long-term averages with attractive
potential dividend yields of more than 5% in FY15E.
We prefer POWF and RECL over public sector banks for an infrastructure (especially
power) recovery trade – structural issues like market share loss in retail assets, and
liabilities and huge capital requirements plague public sector banks.
Power sector reforms to keep POWF and RECL going
Recently, the government has taken several initiatives to improve the fundamentals
of the power sector, we think these steps are positive for the sector and there is no
major risk associated risk as far as implementation of these steps is concerned.
EXHIBIT 1: Key initiatives in the power sector that have led to outperformance
Power sector reforms Implications for lenders (NBFCs/banks) Key risks
Providing fuel linkages for operating power plants and plants scheduled to start operations in FY15.
Positive from an asset-quality perspective, as fuel supply will ensure that plants are able to operate at their optimal peak load factors (PLF).
Only if Coal India is not able to supply the agreed quantity; this seems unlikely as the government has given environmental clearances for mining about 27MT of coal.
Restructuring of state electricity boards under FRP (Financial Restructuring Plan)
Alleviates default risk, and helps to improve purchasing power of SEBs.
No major risk. Bonds issued under the FRP are government guaranteed.
State electricity boards have raised power tariffs in their respective states as prescribed under FRP covenants.
Improvement in repayment capacity of SEBs a positive for lenders.
No major risk. SEBs can't go back on tariff reductions once they have accepted the FRP terms.

As banks curtailed lending to discoms, state governments were forced to allow their
discoms to apply to state regulators for tariff hikes. The Indian central government
used the Appellate Tribunal of Electricity (APTEL) to have state regulators revise
tariffs annually. From 2011 onwards, state regulators have allowed regular tariff
revisions.

*Note: Actual tariff hikes in many states should be much higher as they would fluctuate with increases in power purchase costs, which are now allowed to be a pass-through. Sources: State electricity boards and regulators
Coal supply likely to improve over the next three years
The government has provided fuel supply linkages to power plants that are currently
in operation or due to be commissioned in FY15. Coal India will be the major fuel
supplier for all of the coal-based power plants (which are 58-60% of total power
capacity).
Our Metals & Mining research team forecasts mid-single-digit growth for coal
production from Coal India, which should be sufficient to meet the PLF requirement
of c60% (cash flow breakeven).

Asset quality has been stable, probability of asset quality shock fading away
Power Finance and RECL have been able to manage their asset quality well, even in
the current slow-growth and high-interest rate scenario. With the government taking
positive steps in the power sector, which should lead to an improvement in the
fundamentals of the power sector, we expect asset quality to remain stable and do
not foresee any asset quality shocks in the medium term.
EXHIBIT 4: Asset quality remains stable; we do not expect any shocks

Scenario analysis indicates further upside
We have looked at different scenarios – moderating loan growth, significant increase
in provisions and NIM compression. Our scenario analysis indicates further upside
for Power Finance and Rural Electrification, with potential downside of about 30%
and upside of roughly 35% on a 12-month horizon.
In our worst-case scenario, the two stocks still have c30% downside from current
levels. We think that, post government reforms, the probability of the worst case
panning out has gone down substantially. In our other scenarios, with the market
improving, we estimate our covered infrastructure finance companies can provide an
average return of about 35% over 12-months, implying a favourable risk-reward
ratio.
Scenario assumptions
Scenario 1: Loan growth is 5ppt lower than our base-case estimate, NIMs are 25bp
lower and provisions double our base case estimates. We assume that some of the
projects with strong promoter background also start defaulting.
Scenario 2: everything remains the same as our base-case; only provisions double.
We again assume that some of the projects with strong promoter background also
start defaulting.
Scenario 3: loan growth is 5ppt higher than our base-case estimate and 25bp
margin expansion. We assume Coal India diverts coal from its e-auction and doubles
incremental supply to 50m tonnes from 25m tonnes.

Currency has remained stable – reduced risk from unhedged exposure for now
One of the key investor concerns for Power Finance and RECL has been on the
unhedged portions of their forex exposure. For Power Finance, unhedged exposure
is about 83% and for RECL its roughly 35%.
FX market volatility has subsided meaningfully post RBI initiatives to shore up FX
reserves. The stability of the FX market has helped to reduce the risk from unhedged
FX exposures to the earnings of both companies.

Increasing earnings estimates and target price – reiterate BUY
Despite the recent run-up in the share prices of POWF and RECL, we still expect
outperfornance to continue. We increase our earnings and target price estimates for
Power Finance and RECL primarily to account for higher margins and lower credit
costs. Previously, we had expected margin contraction. However, money markets
have stabilized and wholesale borrowing rates have returned to pre-volatility levels
(July 2013), such that margins had actually slightly expanded y-y as of 3QFY14. We
expect this trend to continue for the next few quarters. We model lower steady state
credit costs, as power sector reforms initiated by the government have ensured the
tail risk fades which should support asset quality.

Valuations remain attractive, we prefer POWF and RECL to PSBs
Even after the recent outperformance, Power Finance’s 1 year fwd P/BV multiple is
close to 1 standard below its long-term mean and RECL’s multiple is close to its
mean. We believe that at current valuations, the risk reward is still favourable and
the potential dividend yield of more than 5% in FY15E will cap the downside from
current levels.
We would also suggest investors who want to position for recovery in infrastructure
(particularly in the power sector) to BUY POWF and RECL instead of public-sector
banks, as the PSBs grapple with structural issues, such as erosion of market share
(in retail assets and liabilities), under-provisioning for stressed assets, cost
pressures from employee wage revisions and huge capital requirements to comply
with BASEL III regulations.

Still some upside left n RECL outperforms market by 9%; expect O/P to continue
RECL is up 24% in the past six months, outperforming the Sensex by
about 9%. A major part of this outperformance can be attributed to
stable money/forex markets, positive government policy initiatives in
the power sector, a restructuring package for state electricity boards
coming through, and depressed valuations/attractive dividend yields.
n Recent power sector reforms reduce tail risk
Recent reforms in the power sector, such as providing fuel linkages
for the operating and near-completed plants, tariff hikes by SEBs,
and environmental clearances for mines of Coal India (COAL IN),
have led to improved sector fundamentals – this has led to a
reduction in tail risk for lenders.
n Scenario analysis suggests more upside
We run a scenario analysis factoring in loan growth 5% above/below
our base-case estimate, double the credit cost in the worst case and
a 25bp lower NIM (see our accompanying sector report POWF &
RECL: risk-reward remains favourable for details). We calculate a
best-case upside of about 28% and worst-case downside of 41%.
n We increase our TP 15% and FY14E/15E earnings 21-25%
We raise our earnings estimates for FY14/15/16 by 20%/26%/24%
and our residual income-based target price by about 15% to factor in
an increase in margins and lower credit costs.
RECL still trading below the long-term mean; expect further upside

Rural Electrification RECL IN Avneesh Sukhija
BNP PARIBAS 20 MARCH 2014
Investment thesis
Power sector reforms have led to an improvement in the overall fundamentals of the sector, which should benefit lenders in terms of falling credit costs and stable asset quality.
RECL’s operating metrics have remained stable over last few quarters– asset quality trends continue to improve and the net interest margin has remained stable amid an uncertain business environment.
Outstanding sanctions of INR560b (4x of FY13 disbursements) indicate that loan growth in FY15/16 will remain strong.
We increase our earnings estimate for RECL for FY14E/15E/16E by 20%/26%/24% and our residual income-based target price by about 15% to account for an increase in margins and lower credit costs.
Catalyst
Key catalyst for the stock could be successful implementation of SEB restructuring packages and an earlier pick-up in the investment cycle than we expect, as this would help sustain loan growth and also improve asset quality.
Risks to our call
Fuel supply shortages can create an issue for asset quality.
Furthermore, a persistent slowdown in the domestic economy would further delay a recovery in the investment cycle. This would be negative for the company’s asset quality and future growth.
Company background Key assumptions
RECL is an infrastructure finance company, lending mostly to
power projects into generation, transmission and distribution. It
also finances state electricity boards, power equipment
manufacturing companies, etc.

RECOMMENDATION STRUCTURE
Stock Ratings Stock ratings are based on absolute upside or downside, which we define as (target price* - current price) / current price. BUY (B). The upside is 10% or more. HOLD (H). The upside or downside is less than 10%. REDUCE (R). The downside is 10% or more. Unless otherwise specified, these recommendations are set with a 12-month horizon. Thus, it is possible that future price volatility may cause a temporary mismatch between upside/downside for a stock based on market price and the formal recommendation. * In most cases, the target price will equal the analyst's assessment of the current fair value of the stock. However, if the analyst doesn't think the market will reassess the stock over the specified time horizon due to a lack of events or catalysts, then the target price may differ from fair value. In most cases, therefore, our recommendation is an assessment of the mismatch between current market price and our assessment of current fair value.
Industry Recommendations Improving (é): The analyst expects the fundamental conditions of the sector to be positive over the next 12 months. Stable (previously known as Neutral) (çè): The analyst expects the fundamental conditions of the sector to be maintained over the next 12 months. Deteriorating (ê): The analyst expects the fundamental conditions of the sector to be negative over the next 12 months. Country (Strategy) Recommendations Overweight (O). Over the next 12 months, the analyst expects the market to score positively on two or more of the criteria used to determine market recommendations: index returns relative to the regional benchmark, index sharpe ratio relative to the regional benchmark and index returns relative to the market cost of equity. Neutral (N). Over the next 12 months, the analyst expects the market to score positively on one of the criteria used to determine market recommendations: index returns relative to the regional benchmark, index sharpe ratio relative to the regional benchmark and index returns relative to the market cost of equity. Underweight (U). Over the next 12 months, the analyst does not expect the market to score positively on any of the criteria used to determine market recommendations: index returns relative to the regional benchmark, index sharpe ratio relative to the regional benchmark and index returns relative to the market cost of equity.
