Oriental Bank of Commerce - 4QFY2011 Results Flash
For 4QFY2011, Oriental Bank of Commerce (OBC) delivered muted performance with net profit declining by 18.3% sequentially and growth of just 5.2% on a yoy basis to Rs334cr. The results were below our estimates of Rs359cr, in spite of Rs51cr write back towards tax liability for the quarter, due to higher-than-estimated provisioning expenses.
Key highlights:
· Business growth momentum was healthy with advances and deposits growth of 5.6% qoq and 7.5% qoq, respectively. On a yoy basis, advances and deposits grew at slower pace of 13.9% and 15.6%, respectively.
· Net Interest Income was flat both sequentially as well as on a year on year basis in spite of moderate business growth. Calculated NIM declined by ~20bp due to the rising cost of funds in the system as a whole and the bank’s relatively weak liability profile. Non-interest income growth was strong sequentially, registering a growth of 29.6% qoq, while on a year on year basis it grew by 13.0%.
· Operating expenses were kept in control. Operating expenses de-grew by 1.6% yoy on the back of 15.4% decline in employee expenses. Other operating expenses rose by 8.6% qoq and 19.0% yoy to Rs228cr. During FY2011, the bank fully recognized the provision for enhancement in gratuity limits of Rs138cr in spite of an option to amortize the same over a five year period. It also took a hit of Rs171cr towards 1/5th of the additional liability for serving employees under the second pension option and Rs151cr towards liability for retired employees. Balance liability carried forward for Pension stands at Rs684cr. As a result of decline in operating expenses compared to growth in operating income the cost-to-income ratio of the bank improved to 35.8% from 38.6% in 3QFY2011 and 38.1% in 4QFY2010.
· The asset quality of the bank deteriorated during 4QFY2011 with the absolute Gross NPAs increasing by 8.9% qoq and Net NPAs rising by 15.0% qoq. Gross and Net NPA ratios also deteriorated to 2.0% and 1.0%, respectively. The provision coverage ratio stood at 76.8% (77.4% in 3QFY2011) including technical write-offs. Provisioning expenses were substantially higher, rising by 192.3% qoq and 34.3% yoy to Rs560cr (at ~1.4% of average assets vs ~0.6% of average assets during 9MFY2011)
· The bank’s CAR improved to 14.2% from 12.4% in 3QFY2011 on the back of capital infusion by the government.
At the CMP, the stock is trading at 0.8x FY2013E ABV.
