Equity valuation: Definition, Importance and Process.

Equity Valuation

 

What is Equity valuation?

Equity Valuation is a process conducted by financial experts to determine the fair market value of a particular company’s assets or equity securities. Usually, investors evaluate the company’s true value of its equity before investing. They evaluate using various techniques by looking at their business management, capital structure and their performance, expected future earnings, and current market value of their assets. Commonly, there are two types of equity valuation methods. The first is the absolute valuation method. It finds the true value of a stock based on fundamental analysis. The second is the relative valuation method which uses comparison techniques. It compares the company with peer company ratios such as the P/E ratio to derive the equity value of a particular stock.

 

Significance of Equity Valuation:

Systematic – The stock market is largely dependent on equity valuation. The stock market includes varieties of stocks from all sectors and industries. So, the market value fluctuates every minute due to the change in information that the market receives on the basic equity valuation. Valuation is the backbone of the whole financial system. It allows companies to operate with strong business models. Only those who are fundamentally strong are in top valuations. 

Individual – Along with the micro-level, equity valuation helps at an individual level also. Due to the equity valuation, the stock’s market value fluctuates every minute. This is due to the change in information that the market receives. So, a person evaluates varying effects and comes up with different results. 

Process of equity valuation:

Understanding various factors in macro environments – Firstly, it is important to understand the industry in which the company operates as its performance is highly influenced by the economic factors, their factors, and their operations. Economic parameters create a strong base for any equity valuation.

Forecasting – Investors forecast performance after considering not only currently trending but after evaluating all the past performances as a strong evaluation and analyzing technique is needed for coming to a final forecast. Cost and sales are important factors too in any forecasting for which investors need strong intricate knowledge base and experience.

Choosing the appropriate equity valuation model – As there are multiple valuation techniques and models available for investors they need to choose after understanding the sector, industry, and company’s business model. It is the responsibility of an analyst to select appropriate techniques.

Valuation Figure – After applying the valuation model, the next step is the final valuation. Analysts can come up with a single figure or range. However, investors prefer figures which have ranges. Different analysts may come up with different values because of using different models or considering different factors.

Final decision – It is based on all the factors and considering all the possible uncertainties. Finally, analysts come up with the final decision for a particular stock whether to buy, sell or hold depending on the current market price and intrinsic value.

 

Various Methods of Equity Valuation:

Based on different factors such as liquidity value, book value, replacement value, discounting factor, earnings ratios, price to book value, and profitability ratio, different equity valuation methods are broadly classified.

Balance sheet techniques – It utilizes all the information available on the balance sheet. It considers all the standards of accounting. Some of the major techniques in the Balance sheet method are Book value Method, liquidation method, and replacement method.

Discounted cash flow method – This model first evaluates the present value of future dividends for getting the present value of equity. They have different assumptions in different models like the single growth model, multi-period model, constant growth model, free cash flow model, two-stage model, H model, and zero growth model. One of the known methods is the dividend discount method.

Earnings multiple technique or Relative valuation – It is also known as the comparable method. It uses peers’ and competitors’ values to determine the value of equity. Earnings or relative valuation includes ratios such as price-to-earnings ratio, price-to-book value ratio, and price-to-sales value ratio.

CANF net profit at Rs.162.21Cr. in Q1FY23.

CANF net profit at Rs.162.21Cr. in Q1FY23.

Can Fin Homes Ltd. (CANF) declared its result on July 21st, 2022 for Q1 FY23. The company reported total revenue of Rs. 611.58 Cr. compared to Rs. 561.29 Cr. in the previous quarter. The net profit jumped to Rs. 162.21 Cr. for Q1 FY23, up by 31.96% QoQ.

The loan book reached Rs. 27538 Cr. with a clientele base of 2.15 lakhs, up by 24% in the current quarter YOY. The disbursements in Q1 stood at Rs. 1722 Cr. compared to Rs. 2705 Cr. in March 2022. In the June quarter, NII increased by 5.5% to Rs. 250.40 cr. The Net Interest Margin (NIM) decreased to 3.60% in June 2022 from 4.07% in the previous quarter. The average business was reduced by 0.63 bps to Rs. 146.48 crores per branch (vs. 147.11 crores on March 22). The cost/income ratio tanked from 19.84% to 15.84% in Q1 FY23 QOQ. The asset quality declined as GNPA increased by 5.39% and was recorded at Rs. 179.78Cr. this was Rs. 170.59Cr. on March 22. The NNPA was at Rs. 81.94 crores, or 0.30%. An increase in the cost of borrowing was witnessed at 5.80% on June 22 versus 5.66% in June 2021 and 5.56% in March 22, due to the hike in the interest rates by the RBI. The EPS was at Rs. 12.18 on June 22, compared to Rs. 9.23 on March 22 and Rs. 8.17 on June 21.
The average ticket size for incremental housing loans was Rs. 21 lakhs and for non-housing loans was Rs. 9 lakhs. The salaried and professional segments constitute around 74% of the O/S loan book. Housing loans were 90%, while non-housing loans were 10%.

CANF has better-quality assets among its peers, but we remain observant of seasonality in the portfolio that could lead to higher credit costs. They have achieved strong growth in the loan book and we expect a minimal spread/margin compression over the next few years. Though housing companies continue to face headwinds because of current macroeconomic situations, the NBFCs’ ability to maintain adequate liquidity, control asset quality, and diversification remains the key differentiator. With the continued growth in the loan book, CANF will witness robust growth. But due to the hike in interest rates, the NBFC will have weak demand for housing among the salaried, non-professional and self-employed classes. However, the expenses will go up due to aggressive branch expansion plans and operational costs. The NBFC has consistently increased its reserves and surplus to come out of uncertainty, which amounted to Rs. 3,040 Cr. in March 2022.

The stock is currently trading at Rs. 552, up by 11.25 points or 2.09%. It touched an intraday high of Rs.590 and a low of Rs.540. The 52-week high for the share price was at Rs.722, and the 52-week low was recorded at Rs.407

Role of Financial Intermediaries

Role of Financial Intermediaries

Role of Financial Intermediaries.

 

Entities that act as a middleman between two or more individuals for any financial transaction like an investment bank or mutual funds are known as financial intermediaries. The main goal of these intermediaries is to build an efficient market and lower costs for conducting any business. However, intermediaries do not accept any deposits from the public. They provide services like leasing and factoring.

The overall stability of the economy depends on the performance of financial intermediaries and the growth of the financial services industry. They move excess funds from the parties who have excess capital to those parties who need funds. This creates an efficient market with a relatively lower cost of conducting business. 

 

Major financial intermediaries and their Roles:

The main role of any financial intermediary is to take deposits from savers and lend them to borrowers. They also pool small savings and collectively invest those funds in assets like stocks, bonds, or any other financial assets. Further, they provide loans to small consumers and businesses. However, there any many types of intermediaries based on these roles

Insurance Companies – There are different types of insurance companies. Almost all companies work in the same way. First, they try to find customers (in large numbers) who need coverage. It can be for anything such as a car, home, or health policy. After these customers purchase this insurance policy. Then in the future, whenever customers make a claim and request the insurance company a payout, the insurance company will provide it through that pool of money.

Pension Funds – Full-time employees use their savings for their retirement by investing. The pension fund organizations work on certain factors. Such as risk, the period for which investment is made, and matching contributions. Their employer matches that contribution to a certain extent. When the employee retires, they will get all the contributions with interest.

Banks – Banks are the oldest and most trusted financial intermediaries around the world. They provide multiple services to their customers such as saving, investing, and lending with many other customized services to fit specific criteria. For example, when an individual wants to raise a mortgage, then banks may provide money from another person’s deposits into the same bank for saving. Along with small individuals, large companies also prefer banks to help find investors.

Stock exchanges – Before stock exchanges were invented, it was a very tedious process for buying any company’s stocks. But one can use stock exchanges to trade as they facilitate the entire process with transactions.

Benefits of Financial intermediaries:

1. Expertise – Financial intermediaries not only have specialist knowledge but also all resources which are needed to assess the risk. They have the financial expertise to anticipate the profitability of any proposed projects.  
2. Value Transformation – Financial intermediaries can help both small and large borrowers at a time. They collect money from small investors and give them to the borrowers who need a large sum of money.
3. Transaction costs are reduced– Financial intermediaries help to reduce overall transaction cost as they provide facilities to a large number of borrowers through which overall transaction is balanced.
4. Risk Diversification – Financial intermediaries ensure that their entire risk is diversified. In case any borrowers have defaulted, it does not affect the savings of other depositors. 
5. Easy borrowing – Financial intermediaries ease borrowing by giving them various facilities or options to borrowers. So the borrowers do not require to visit a bank every time.

The bank’s PPoP was at Rs. 394 Cr, down by 18% as other incomes fell and operating expenses rose. The other income fell to Rs. 159 Cr. and was down by 26% due to losses of Rs. 55 Cr. in the treasury operations.

As the monsoon was on time, it is likely to be favorable for the bank, since the farmers will be in a better position to repay the debt.

During the quarter there was an increase in the prices of coal, coke and other consumables. Another factor for the decline in profitability is the continuing drag of old DIP orders booked in FY21. Moreover, a sharp drop in pig iron prices post imposition of a 15% export duty severely affected the profitability in the June quarter.

 

EBITDA stands at Rs. 27.11 crores in the June quarter. It declined by 82.73% from Rs. 156.99 crores in Q1 FY22. The profit before tax stood at Rs. 1.73 crores, down by 97.64 % QoQ from Rs. 73.19 crores and 98.72 % YoY from Rs. 134.83 crores. The EPS has also decreased to Rs. 0.39 in June 2022 from Rs. 29.99 in June 2021 i.e. by 98.70%. The EPS fell by 97.65% QoQ from Rs. 16.61
